House Moving Epidemic Inspires
Local Contractor To Neat Invention

]. E. Krebs had been moving
houses as a part of his general
contracting business for a long
time but II took the sudden
activation OF project houses pur-
chased by veterans to inspire
him TO invention.
His contraption for transplant
ing edifices starts very simply
with one and a half ton truck
but it ends with an attachment
which can be spread to a length
OF 20 feet and width of 10 feet
and can move an ordinary size
house in a few hours.
The trailer has the regulation
two wheels at the back and a
fifth wheel toward the front
which, Mr.. Krebs says. keeps the
house balancing nicely without
much danger of a sudden bump
causing bursting strain.
When the house is deposited on
its location. the moving apparat-
us folds by the simple method Of
pulling out three pins.
The contraption backs up to

collapsed trailer is slid beneath
it, the house is lacked up enough
to remove it from its foundation,
the pins are inserted in the NOV
ing frame, the house is lowered
onto 1t and away the whole busi-
ness goes. The whole loading
operation takes about an hour,
Mr.. Krebs said. The house re-
mains on jacks on its new lot
until the foundation is poured
right beneath it and when that
has set sufficient length of
time to dry. the house is lowered
on the piers and the job Is done.
One of the advantages of the
new moving trailer is that where
as a house to be moved on an
ordinary truck has to be lacked
up four feet. on Mr.. Krebs'
arrangement II must be raised
only 27 inches. Most houses are
that high off the ground anyway,
he explained.

agreement when it was signed. Ar
gsntina at the time was selling
wheat to Europe at nearly IS a

then prevailing in the Chicago
wheat pit.
The agreement, announced March
6, would have set a price range of
S150 minimum and 50 maximum
for the 1948 crop year, with the
minimum dropping 10 cents each
year to a minimum of $110 in 1852

Britain was the largest-would have
pledged to buy at least 500000,000
bushels. from the three exporting
countries.
Failure of the United States Con-
gress to ratify the agreement was
reported to have led the Australian
government to consider setting up
its own program for stabilizing Aus
tralian wheat prices.
The Canadian position was that
as far as its wheat farmers were
concerned collapse of the agreement
would have little effect since the
United Kingdom had indicated she
would take all the wheat Canada
could supply.
The official British announcement
today said her reason for quitting
the agreement was that "the guar
