World Food Shortage

BY The Assoeiatsd Press

Sir John Boyd Orr, director gen.
eral Of the United Nations Food and
Agriculture Organization, said last
night that production prospects now
indicate the world fool shortage
emergency will continv until next
year at least.
While large grai' crops appear
likely this year in lie United States
and Canada, the outlook in Europe
was said to be unpromising because
|of unfavorable weather.
The Agriculture Department,
meanwhile, announced June export
ALLEGATIONS OF 1,O02, 600 long tons, or
about 39.6o9, 900 bushels, of wheat,
-four, corn, grain sorghums, oats
and barley. This compares with
Il,413,000 tons or about $1,000, 600
bushels allotted to shortage areas
for May.

In a statement reviewing the
world food situation, Sir John said
that despite the poor European OUT
look it is possible to hope for some
improvements in the worst areas and
the building up Of more adequate
stocks"
Reporting on efforts to meet
shortages of the current year, he
said it now appears that world ex-
ports of grains may be 2,000, 900 tons
or about 75,00o.000 bushels more
than appeared likely few months
ago.
This increase over expectations re-

Quarrel Over 6. 0. P.
Budget Cutting
By ths Assoeiutsd Press

Senator Dworshak, Republican, of
Idaho and James B. Carey, CIO
leader, quarrelled angrily yesterday
over whether the Republican party
should be blamed for cuts in Presi-
dent Truman'S budget.
MIR. Carey, CLIO secretary-tr treas
urer, had just finished reading to a
Senate appropriations subcommittee
a statement opposing cuts in Labor
Department and Social Security
funds voted by the House when
Senator Dworshak leaned across the
table to declare loudly:
II don't know why the witness has
to inject partisan politics into this
committee hearing"
Mr.. Carey had told the committee
that House Republicans seek to kill
the former Roosevelt New Deal pro-
gram by cutting huge sums up to
80 per cent" from the budget.
Are you asking for reprisals OF

CenfraIia Disaster on
Mining Company
By the Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,. April 121-
State fact-f1nders say the primary
responsibility" for the miners safety
Tn the Centralia coal mine, where
III perished March IS, rested upon
the company officials, superintend-
ent and management"
The special seven-member group
appointed by Gov. Dwight II. Green
also reported yesterday that officials
of the State Mines and Minerals De-
partment and State Mining Board
members followed a weak, ineffec-
tual and Indifferent policy toward
enforcement of the State mining
law for at least 10 months" before
the explosion,
The committee said Driscoil o.
Scanlan, State mine inspector with
Jurisdiction over the blast shattered
mine, had "the legal authority to
close this mine If he considered It
unsafe"
Scanlan's Excuse Criticized.
It said Mr.. Scanlan's expressed
fear that If he did SO he would be
discharged or reprimanded to the
State director of mines and min
erals Robert M. Medill, who re-
signed April d is not SUFFICIENT
excuse for his tMr. Scanlan's) fail
ure to close the mine"
The I0,000-word report by the
committee headed by John e. Cas-
sidy, former Democratic attorney
general of Illinois, also said:
"It is apparent the company Of
ficers and management did not ex-
ercise the proper degree of diligence
toward complying with the recon-
mendations of Federal and State
inspectors for many months prior to
the explosion" The mine was OPP
Grated by the Centralia Coal Co.
COLLISION Had no Report.
The company officials made no
immediate comment on the report,
nor was there any from Mr.. Scan
Ian.
The committee said that Capt.
N. H. Collision, Federal coal mines
administrator, had no report Of
Imminent danger" at the mine and
therefore 1--WE are unable to say he
did not fulfill his responsibilities In
this case" The Government has
operated the mine since May, 1916.
The fact-finders said coal dust
was the "chief devastating factor"
in the explosion. They reported
insufficient and too infrequent ap-
plication or installation of rock dust
to keep the mine SAFE from ex-
plosion.
The report said it was "imprac-
tical to obligate" a miners safety
committee to assume general re-
sponsibility for safety measures.
