apparent in any study of the nature of the present crisis The poorest crops this year in deficit areas which have the most need for grain More than to any other this may be attributed to the weather "a hot dry summer in Europe following cruelty hard winter. World grain exports this year are un- likely to exceed the 2S.5 million tons of l946-47, whereas an increase of at least six million tons would be necessary offset the decline in European grain alone
 On par with the actual shortage of food is the difficulty of importing nations in obtaining for eign exchange The council points out for instance that the export wheat cannot be purchased at current price levels This presents another dilemma which the United States is expected to solve To be sure, some of the difficulty arises such international hi lacking as is being done by Senor Perona with his artificial price of $ and s6 bushel for Argentine wheat However with dwindlng dollar funds and our own high prices. the main explanation lies in the distortion in the world economy. The exchange prob lem could be solved by by-passng the exchange bar rer between our plenty and Europes poverty-that IS to say by taking payment in foreign currences.
 The impact at home of the C:ain wheat and the high price of it must also be taken into ac- count It is impossible to go into the market and buy third of our wheat crop for export without raising the cost of food for Americans Less food, especially meat and animal proteins, must be eaten if We are to send food abroad and feed ourselves at reasonable prices. That is problem for American statesman ship as well American self discipline thls winter
 In our view the most insignificant implication of the IEFC report that the problem Of food cannot be divorced from the complex problem of restoring European production a whole For example, the fertilizer which Europe needs to produce more food depends in turn on materials suct as coal This food no less than machinery must be thought of on long basis in the context of the Marshall Plan. That is the prime reason that international aocation machinery in the Interna tional Emergency Food Council must be kept in operation. Moreover, the Administration must continue controls over lm- ports and exports so as to prevent sabotage of the IEFC operations

LANDLORDS CAN'T
 MAKE TENANTS PAY
 FOR IMPROVEMENTS

Some landlords in the Juneau area are requiring their tenants to decorate their accommodations either inside or outside) as con- dition ct rental. Area Rent Director Walter E. Walsh said today, as he pointed out that arrangements of that nature are violation of the Federal rent regulations.
 Requiring current or prospective tenants to perform such work at their own time. or expense, in ad- dition to payment of the maximum amount of rent allowed by regula- ticns, represents an overcelling charge by the landlord, he said, and tenants have recourse to law by suing the landlord for three times the amount of any over charge represented by the overceil- ing work and cash payments.
 Rent" the official said. repre- sents the considerations, including any bonus, benefit, or gratuity, de- manded or received for or in con- nection with the use or occupancy of housing accommodations or the transfer of a lease of such accom- modations, and under that defin- ition. it is quite clear that the ben eft that the landlord derives from work of any sort done as require lnent of renting constitutes an overcharge of the legal maximum rent"

Orderly Administration
Cincinnati Enquirer

It looks as though the United States will be in the business of aiding foreign countries for quite some time That is not merely the basic premise of the Marshall proposals, now being whipped into shape for Congress. It also is ye conclusion Of most of the members of Congress who went overseas this It will be at least four or five years before we can hope all foreign countries paying with goods they produce for the food and fuel and mach- cry shipped to them from here
 Tn those circumstances, it would seem to be the part of wisdom to set government corporation to administer aid to countries This has been proposed by the special House committee headed by Rep Christian A Herter of Massachusetts. Such corporation according to the proposals of this special committee of 18 Congress1en, would screen all pro- posals for foreign aid would direct the purchases of food and other commodities for shipment overseas would insure that the assistance reaches those for
 whom T is intended and would exercise such controls as VII help protect the economy of the United States.
 That may be too large order. The actual ad-
 istrafon Of assistance to foreign countries is surely task appropriate for government corporation But the screening Of requests fer assistance not purely economic matter. If t is done by government cor porafion il would have 10 De with the very close cooperation Of the State Department. And the ad- nirllstraon Of controls to protect cur economy ls very broad grant Of power, probably much too broad 10 be given single administrative agency.

KETCHIKAN CAUCUS

Only 21 Democrats turned out in Ketchlkan the other day for precinct caucuses to elect "A delegates to attend the Divisional Convention scheduled to De held in Ketchikan December II. This was the small est turnout number of years, especially so m the face of the nroads made by the COP candidates last election.
 One answer is that a lot of former Democrats have decided to go Republican, but better one is that instead of trying to bring all Democratic factions together party leaders, in their zeal to hold control within little select group have split the party wide open The party is being run from the top down and not from the people up. This years divisional convention should have been held at Sitka but was ordered for Ketchkan The Territorial convention is supposed to be slated for Anchorage but it looks like that will be changed also to Ketchikan that site apparently being more convenient for the boys who hope to control
 Some of the delegates elected for the divisional convention have never voted in Alaska.

 Spaatz told the Presidents air policy committee the Soviet Union has tried to place orders recently for B-29 tires and landing gear. This leads us to believe that Russia has built B-29s," he said yesterday.

New Clash With Dutch
Expected as Premier
RESIGNS in Indonesia
BY the Assoeioted Press

JOGJAKARTA, Java, June 81
Confronted by solid opposition TO
his moderate policies, Premier Su-
tan Sjahrir quit as head of the In
donesian Republics cabinet today
and Indonesian sources said that
only a miracle" could prevent re-
pewed armed conflict with the
Dutch.
A Dutch spokesman in Batavia,
however, said the Netherlands In
dies government expected President
Soekarno, in his first move as head
of an emergency presidential cab
met, to request arbitration OF the
current crisis by a third power or by
the United Nations.
The spokesman said the NEI gov
ernment had been informed un-
officially that letter from Soc
ksrno containing such an arbitra-
ton request probably would be de-
livered to II. ]. van Nook, the acting
governor general. some time today.
All Parties Oppose Siahrir.
Premier Sjahrir stepped out dur
ing an all-night cabinet meeting at
which he found all Indonesian po-
litical parties aligned against his
policy of making concessions to
the Netherlands in negotiations
concerning formation of an interim
government for the United States
of Indonesia, which 10 slated to at
tain independence January /, 1949
President Soekarno Immediately
accepted the 37-year-old premier's
resignation but ordered members of
the Sjahir cabinet to retain their
portfolios until new cabinet could
be formed under the presidents per-
sonal leadership.
Aides said Mr.. Sjahrir probably
would remain as acting foreign min
lister until the new cabinet Is or
ganized.
An Indonesian spokesman, one OF
Premier Sjahrir's associates, pre-
dicted that Dutch army units would
begin operations within two or
three days as result OF Mr..
Sjabrir's fall.

Indonesian sources close to the
government said President Soekarno
undoubtedly would reject any fur
