any means" he said, "and we had
better look at the other fields be-
fore coming to the conclusion that
rationing and price control are the
only weapons left to meet high
prices"
Remedies Suggested.
The Connecticut Senator pointed
out that much could be done by the
executive branch Of the Govern
ment and by labor and manage
ment to keep prices down, as well
as through legislation.
The decision of the Democrats to
go ahead with the legislative pro-
gram dealing with prices and in
fiation emphasizes their determine
tion to hold the initiative in this
matter. They consider they have the
Republicans "over a barrel" because
of the prompt recommendations
made by President Truman. and
they do not intend to let the Re-
publicans up.
At the opening OF the special ses-
sion of Congress it was freely pre-
dicted by Republican members that
nothing would be done about prices
and imitation until the regular ses-
sion begins in January. Now. ii
appears, the Senate will dispose OF
the emergency aid bill for Europe
within a few days at most. There
will be plenty of time thereafter
to tackle the economic legislation
before the long range Marshall plan
can be whipped into form to present
to the Senate.
If the Republican leadership does
not press for some of this economic
Ilegislation-for example, legislation
to control consumer credit, to ex-
tend rent controls, to extend ex-
port controls and other proposals
that have been advanced both by
Mr.. Truman and by Republicans
it will come in for criticism on the
ground that it is fiddling while the
country is being burned up by higher
and higher prices.
There is division among the
Democrats over the proposal of Mr.
Truman to authorize him to impose
"selective' price controls. Senator
Ellender. of Louisiana, for example
was quoted as saying that such 8
program would not work.
You cannot possibly impose con.
trolls on a halfway basis he said

2 Americans Disprove Story

In exchange for gifts, the Lolos

from tribe to tribe, visiting many
chiefs. Capt McCallister and Sergt.
Fox painstakingly tracked down the
rumors.
They found slavery all right, but
the slaves were Chinese seized in
raids on lowland villages. These
were forced to tend herds and
grind corn while their masters
fought with other tribes.
IS Flyers Rescued.
Along the Lololand grapevine
came a report that one tribe was
holding big nosed American cap
tive They searched out the captive
and found him to be native of
North China whose size and facial
characteristics had caused him to
be mistaken for an American.
Another such lead took them to a
former Chinese soldier who had
gained the reputation of being a
pilot because he once rode in an
airplane."

have landed in Lololand crashes,
Capt McCallister said IS were res
cued alive during the war largely
through the help of the Lolos them
selves. The body of the thirty sixth

He said that in each case where
a rumor was traced to its source
it was found incorrect. 1t usually
arose from the rescue of creWmen
from downed planes.

mander of the United States ad-

the 15-month search extending over
thousands of square miles of wild
country now was officially over.

Can't. Edward McAllister, Ale

from Army grave registration search

Their task was to penetrate re-

if there was any basis to report
that five American >airmep forced
down while flying the hump from
India during the war were held IN
captivity.

Lololanders Cooperative.
They took the role of priests be-
cause the Lololands, while nomin-
ally under Chinese rule, rarely allow
Chinese or other strangers to enter.
They tolerate priests and mission
aries, however.
Capt. McCallister told reporters
they had expected to find wild and
savage people, but they found the
Lololanders, while suspicious at first,
were kind and cooperative.
Some authorities on China say
the Lolos are of Caucasian blood. 1t
is known they retreated to the wilds
centuries ago simply to escape
Chinese rule.

The underlying feeling among
Republicans is said to be more ex-

the fruit with cereal, prepared or
