the cost of needed proteins, min

FIGHTING
 TRUMAN'S
 PROGRAM
Measures Proposed to Re- dule Living Cosi-Ci0
 fo Ask Wage Boost

WASHINGTON, Dec 3.-IR- An administration move to sub init it's own bills on the most con- troversial parts of President Tru- mans anti-inflation program and an impending CIO wage boost drive touched off a new cost of living battle in Congress today.
 Although Senator Taft (R-Ohio) withheld comment until he has had chance to study the legisla- tion involved, other Republicans made it plain that two promised measures covering the price-wage rationing and allocation field will face prompt opposition.
 At the same time, the C1O an nouncement that its unions Will seek third round" of pay in creases in negotiations beginning early next year was described as expected by some Republicans but they said this development will complicate congressional conSidera- ton of cost of living proposals. Some Democrats on the other hand took the view that it might speed action on Capitol Hill.
 However, CIO President Philip Murray said in announcing the new campaign late yesterday that he and his lieutenants look for no &C., ton by Congress during the spec ial session to keep prices down.
 Meeting newsnen after day long session with his nine vice. presidents, the white-haired union leader declared that the CIO "is determined to tighten the unbear- able economic burden which has been imposed upon the people.
 ITO this end" the formal state ment continued, "the CIO and it's affiliated unions shall proceed through the process of collective bargaining to obtain substantial wage increases for the American workers to restore their loss ln real incomes suffered through ln- flation :. :"
 And almost simultaneously with Murray's announcement, respon- sible administration officials dis closed privately that two bills have been drafted to:
 l. Provide for price-Wage con- trolS as well as authority to .ra- tion scarce cost of living items and critical materials, if voluntary price and distribution agreements can not te obtained.
 2. Extend for two years the sec ond decontrol act Of l94I ana broaden it to include controls and allocation powers over steel ana iron, grains and transportation facilities.

"Govf. Keeps Books Badly
 Says Andrews
Former GAO Official Claims Budget Surplus Is
 Not Certain

WASHINGTON, Dec 3.-lA-A former official of the general ac- counting office declared today the government keeps it's books so bad ly that no one knows" whether il had a surplus or a deficit in its income last year.
 T. Coleman Andrews, former di- rector of the GAO corporate audits division, said that actually the budget surplus of SYST ,000, 900 announced by the treasury when the 1947 fiscal year ended last June 30 was just a balance of cash"
 Even businesses which are broke and operating at deficit usually have some cash on hand. Andrews said in a statement prepared for House executive expenditures subcommittee.
 Andrews said he was told that the supposed budget surplus did not include billions of dollars of disbursements by the Army and Navy that were made prior to June 30 but were not reported to the Treasury until later"
 The same was true, he added. of unpaid vouchers covering more billions of dollars for goods and services purchased and used by the hundreds of departments, agencies and other organizations of the government during the fiscal year"
 Andrews asked:
 How on earth can anyone say whether there was a surplus or a deficit for that year unless all deals are taken into account?"
 The former GAO official was the first witness called by the subcommittee in a discussion of bookkeeping practices by the Re- construction Finance Corporation as prelude to full dress inves- tigation of government purchases during the war.

pAA PLANE CRASH HEARING STARTED:
 WITNESSES CALLED

SEATTLE, Dec. 3.-tR-As the Civil Aeronautics Board hearing on the Pan American World Airways plane crash on Annette Island op- ened today, company official urged increased weather observation facilities along the Alaska coast and said Pan American has been un- able to establish the probable cause of the accident or to evolve any logical theory as to its cause"
 Eighteen persons perished in the October 26 crash of the north bound plane.
 Capt Gordon F Maxwell, man. ager of flight operations for the firms Pacific Alaska Division and first company representative to tes- tify, asserted.
 If system of weather ships similar to that maintained during the war were operated, vital in formation which is necessary to make more accurate forecasts for Alaska would be available and would benefit operators of all air ! craft in Alaska
 After explaining that the com- pany was without clues to the cause of the mishap, he added; Next summer, when it is possible again to examine the scene of the accident and to explore thorough ly the remaining parts of the wreckage, it is hoped that addition al information will te collected which will permit us definitely to determine the cause
 The first witness was Fred Pow ell, accident investigator for the Alaska region. His testimony was devoted to action taken by gov- ernment agencies and search and rescue groups after the plane was reported missing. He said heavy new snow prevented a detailed in- vestigation by the C.A.A. when the bodies of the victims were recuv- cred on Mount Tamgas
 Twenty or more witnesses, in- cluding Alaska residents who par tioipated in the search, will be called. Several other Pan Ameri- can employees are expected to tes- tify.
