Reich Officials Expect
To Restore Authorized
1,550-CaIorie Ration
BY the Assoeioted Press

STUTTGART, Germany. July S.
German officials predicted today
that they would be able to restore
the full authorized food ration of
1850 calories day in the British
and American zones as a result of
guarantee by the United States
to ship in at least 100000 tons of
food monthly.
The officials cheered loudly when
Secretary of Agriculture Anderson
Informed them in an address of the
guarantee which he gave American
military government officials yester-
day in Berlin.
Dietrich Reassures Officials.
DR.. Hermann Dietrich, German
head of the bi-zonal food agency
promptly assured several German
officials, who had threatened to re-
sign because of their inability to
meet the food ration, that they
could now remain in their posts
with clear conscience"
DR.. Dietrich predicted that if the
promised shipments arrive on sched-
ule, the full ration can be met
throughout the next year. For many
months the actual distribution of
food in both zones has fallen far
below the 1850 calories authorized,
and the United States, recently
speeded up its food shipments to
avert threatened hunger crisis.
Although assuring them that the
United States would do all possible
to prevent hunger in Germany, Mr.
Anderson told the Germans they
must increase their own agricultural
production, especially Of grain.
Livestock Maintenance Hit.
In an obvious criticism of the
failure of German farmers to reduce
the size of their livestock herds to
permit larger grain crops, Mr.
Anderson said:
Under these circumstances any
livestock production which deprives
people of cereals they need is a
luxury that neither this nor any
other def1cit-producing country can
afford"
Mr.. Anderson and Secretary of
Commerce Hartman conferred here
today with British, American and
German officials on the possibilities
of increasing Germany's agricultural
and industrial outputs.

The older brother, who was grad

was in complete charge of Prince
Hamid in this country. The youth,
|he said, had been spending the
holidays with him in New York, be-
fore returning to st. Georges for
the summer term.
When Prince Abdorreza learned
of his brothers escapade, he said,
he sent a message to the Iranian
Embassy in Paris. Embassy officials
met the lad and put him on plane
to New York.
The two princes have been in
Washington since Wednesday, and
Abdorreza is now deciding to what
school his brother would be sent.
He is not certain. he said. whether
it will be st. Georges or some other
school. But Prince Abdorreze made
it plain that whether he likes it or
not, Hamid will finish his educa-
ton in this country.

also voiced doubt the President will
veto the new bill.
If the President does disapprove
the measure, it will further empha-
size the breach which has developed
in recent months between the White
House and Congress over domestic
issues. And there were indications
yesterday that both parties expect
this situation to continue in the
next session, when the issues of the
1948 election will be taking shape.
Leftest Bid Seen.
Perhaps this conflict is the in
evitable result of having a division
in the control of the Government
between the two parties" said Sen
ator Hatch, Democrat, of New Mex
leo. Such divisions have always
resulted in the past because of po-
litical differences and this one is
no exception"
Senator Wherry Of Nebraska, the
Republican whip, said he wants to
be fair about it, but believes most
of the blame for the sharp differ
ences which have arisen can be at
tributed to what he called the bid
by the President for "leftist' sup
port in the coming presidential
campaign.
He's getting further away from
Congress all the time Senator
Wherry told reporter. 1T probably
will be worse in the next session,
because the election will be nearer" !"
Senator Wherry said he thinks
the President wants the labor and
tax issues in the next campaign"
and that this desire contributed to
his veto of those bills. r
Study to Continue.
The proposed study of Federal
State tax overlapping is expected to
continue during the recess. Before
deciding to send two Senators to
the Governors Conference next
week, the Expenditures Committee
had authorized a subcommittee of
fve-all former Governors-to work
on the subject during the recess
More than 80 States have entered
the field of income tax. twenty-five
States have turned to sales taxes
which to some extent overlap Fed
eral excise levies. In recent years
there also has been a Federal gaso-
line tax on top of State levies.
One member of Congress ex-
pressed the view privately yesterday
that there is little hope for narrow
ing the field of duplicated tax
sources as long as the people con-
tinue to support programs calling
for Federal funds to supplement
State expenditures.
