Among the new models that came

were the 1948 Bucks, Pontiacs and

made in each instance with little or

Cadillac, planning major changes
in its new models, was closed for

One top executive says it's his
best estimate that if all the trans
actions that were definitely price
support operations could be sepa-
rated out the government would
just about break even on them.
AS the price support program
now operates it guarantees the far
mer, before his crop is planted, a
price estimated to net him a reas-
enable return. If the market price
at the time the farmer sells is be-
low what the government guaran-
teed, he may get a loan from the
government or sell to government
agencies at the guaranteed price.
Thus the government has acquir-
ed large quantities of commodities.
1t dispOses of these commodities at
the most favorable price it can. 1t
may take a loss or it may make
profit.

Here's what the books of the
Commodity Credit Corporation
show:
Between 1888 and June 80, 1913,
the corporation had a net loss of
$1,968,848,55O. But included in this
was a loss of $2,1O4, ,192,3O1 that was
paid out in consumer subsidies.
These consumer subsidy losses
occurred during the war. At that
time there were price ceiling on
many articles. Some of these arti-
cles couldn't be sold at the ceiling
price if the producer was to make
a reasonable return. So the govern
ment held the ceiling price at
which goods were sold to the pub
lie, but the producer received a
higher price than the retail ceiling
justified. The government suffered
the loss. Government officials say
this cannot be considered a farm
price support transaction.

Navy Seeks Blimp
For Sea Warfare
Awards Sl,5OO,OOO Contract As First
Step In Building A Big Lighter
Than.Air Craft
BY Associated Press

WASHINGTON - The Navy is
turning once again to blimps in its
search for ways to kill off any enc
my high speed submarines.
A. $1,500,00O engineering study
has been started for the largest
nOn-rigid lighter-than-air craft ev-
er planned.
Award of a contract to Good
year Aircraft Corporation for the
study was announced today.
High-speed submarines, develop
ed by the Germans too late in the
last war to get into action, have
been a source of concern to the Uni
ted States Navy.
One Of the two principal research
programs Of hesNavy now is on un-
derseas warfare in an effort to
work out battle tactics that will
stop fast submarines.
The Russian fleet is made up al
most entirely of some $50 submar-
ines Guesses on how many are
high speed and of enough range to
operate in the Atlantic Ocean from
Russian bases range all the way
from fifty to $50. Some experts ex-
press belief that less than 100 is
a close estimate.
Officers TO Be Trained
The new type ''N' blimp, which
the Navy is considering is just now
a gleam in the Bureau Of AerOnau-
tics eye. But when built it will be
nearly twice the size of the "K''
type used on anti-sub patrol during
World War II.
Coincident with the blimp engine
ering study, the Navy Bureau OF
Personnel put out a call for young
beavier-than-air pilots to train in
~gas-bag" flying. Requests from en-
signs and lieutenants q. g. must
be in by mid-OctOber; fight train
ing starts Jan. IT,
The purpose of the call, an official
explained, is to merge the two

is aimed at having all blimp fiiers
qualified in heavier aircraft, with a
good percentage of heavier-than-
than-air flyers qualified for blimps

WHAT 1T MEANS:
The Price Support Program
Rv RORERT Z. GEIGER

~ A~O-NA@AsA AAe N7A4A N'AAAe
WASHINGTON - How much has
the government price support pro-
gram cost you, or saved you, as a
taxpayer and consumer?
This has become one of the con-
ttOversial questions. of the presi-
Dental campaign. Political speech
makers are attempting to relate the
program to the price of a can of
beans or a sack of spuds.
Nobody has an accurate answer.
Here's why:
The Commodity Credit Corpora
ton (CCC), which handles the
price support program, shows a
profit" of 135,343,751 since 1888
(eXcluding consumer subsidies" of
which more later)
But the corporation handles
other commodities besides those it
acquires in price support programs,
and until recently accounts weren't
separated. Billions of dollars worth
of commodities have been handled
since 1888, when CCC was set up.
Milford chronicle., 1948-10-01

Subtracting the consumer subsi-
dy losses, the corporation comes
Out with a $135, ,343,751 profit on its
other transactions, including price
support items.
CCC officials say it is difficult to
set an exact figure on total govern
ment price support operations.
The corporation bought and sold
commodities for lend-Iease and pei
formed other transactions. But the
officials say their breakdown of
transactions is as accurate and falr
as it is possible to make.
Milford chronicle., 1948-10-01

These officials acknowledge they
have lost some substantial sums
while supporting the prices of some
commodities, notably potatoes. On
the other hand, they have made
substantial profits on some articles,
notably cotton.
The government balance sheet
showing a profit of $135, 5,343,751 for
the CCC includes all the costs of
administering the program. It also
includes a deduction of $36,458,054
as q reserve to pay losses on inven-
tories on hand June 80, 1948.
There is another item of $685. 1885,
Milford chronicle., 1948-10-01

S86 included in the profit. This is
due from the secretary of the treas
ury on the Economic Cooperation
Administration (Marshall Plan)
program. Corporation officials say
these ECA operations should not be
considered as part of the price sup
port program but as function Of
ECA.
If this $55,768,386 item is written
off as price support it still leaves
the corporation with a profit OF
$79,575,365.

Rescue 2l Men By Brooches Buoy

MOREHEAD CITY, N. C., (P)- Twenty-one men were rescued to- day from the stricken motorship Norfolk.
 While towering waves still pounded the grounded tanker, coast guardsmen used brooches buoy to take the men to safety one by one. One crewman was rescued yesterday.
 The 2l men, all reported in good condition, spent a dreary night aboard their battered, leak ing vessel. The Norfolk, 25-foot, 2,453-ton ship, piled into the treacherous sand reef off Beaufort Inlet yesterday while in distress and trying to make harbor.
 For a time it appeared she would be broken up by the surg ing sea. Today coast guardsmen said salvage might be possible when the sea calms.
 CoaStguard boats stood by the vessel all night in heavy fog. Bright sunshine this morning soon burned off the fog, but the waves still kept boats from going along side and the brooches buoy was brought into play.

B-29 And Crew Missing In Pacific

SAN FRANCISCO, (P) - An airforce superfortress with IA or l5 men aboard has been unreport- ed over the Pacific since l:34 am. PST. An intensive search is un- der way.
 The big plane was one of 10 flying from Spokane to Honolulu.
 The army air-rescue arm at Hamilton Field and the coast guard sent out search planes.
 The missing plane last gave it position at 1:34 am. to the civilian aeronautics administration station at Sacramento. It was to have re- ported again upon reaching the Farallon Islands, about 25 miles off the Golden Gate. It failed to check in and nothing has been heard since.
 All other planes in the flight have reported regularly.
 The planes attached to the 326th very heavy bombing squad ron, left Spokane at g pm. yester- day at 10-minute intervals.
 The missing ship was the sixth in line.
 The 10 B-29's left Spokane air force base last night with some of the bases top personnel aboard on a Far Eastern training mission.
 The planes were scheduled to stop at Honolulu, then continue across the Pacific to Yakota air force base in Japan.

Three Powers Agree On Control Of The Ruhr

LONDON, (P) - The Unit e d States, Britain and France have agreed upon international control of the Ruhr and close cooperation to enlist western Germany's as sets in the Marshall plan.
 Tn conferences here the western powers also agreed that western Germany should have a federal form government, providing ade- quate central authority but pro- tecting the rights of the various states.
 A communique was issued Sat urday night after the conferences ended.
 No hard agreement was reached upon merger of the French zone with the United States-British zones of occupation, but responsi- ble officials said decisions reached here will lead to that objective.
 The three powers decided Ger many will be represntd in the in ternational control of the Ruhr. No indication was given whether Russia will be invited to partici- pate.
 The Ruhr agreement was in general terms. The specific recom- mendations were not. disclosed They will be submitted first to the governments concerned.
 The three powers adjourned un- til next month their talks on the role Germany will play in the economic recovery program.

Krug Just Wants "Fast Development Of Alaska''
Continued from Page One,

Continued from Page OneI iginal rights in the Tongass na- tional forest.
 He said his department had nothing to do with contract the Indians made with the Develop ment Corporation of New York to sell the firm millions of dollars worth of timber.
 He said the Indians had no right to sell the timber and that trying to cut it under the contract would be subject to prosecution by the forest service.
 Both Krug and Mastin White, department solicitor, said if the government took land the Indians claim the government should give them just compensation.
 Krug said he is certain his de- partment can settle the aboriginal right question in Alaska.
 "We can sit down with these In- dians," Krug said, "and get these claims settled in a year or two. We could give them either land or dollars for their claims. If dollars Congress will have to approve it.. We are only waiting for approval of Congress to put the plan into effect"
 White said the Indians do not have a right to make contracts for sale of timber in the TongaSs na- tional forest where the forest serv- ice is trying to establish paper mills.
 He said Congress had decided in the Tongass National forest bill that only the agriculture depart .ment can sell that timber and the proceeds must be held in the treas ury until the claims of the Indians are decided
 Rev. J. Earl Jackman, of the Board of National Missions of the Presbyterian church, who has charge of Alaskan missions Sug- gested the Indian bureau be abol- ished over a period of five or ten years.
 He said the Indians are not ready for immediate transfer of the Indian bureau duties to the TerritOry

FISH AND WILDLIFE HAVE GOOD MEETING

Garnet Martin, who has been in Juneau attending the fish and wildlife conference, and in Seat tie on business returned last Sat urday with Pan American.
 He stated this morning that the meeting in Juneau was most in- teresting and revealed many prob lems confronting the commission in the presence of Albert Day, head of the group who came from Washington, D. C., and Frank Du- fresne from Chicago for the con- ference.
 Martin stated that an office in Nome is slated to be open soon, for the first time, with an agent stationed here and an amphibious plane available to cover the divi- sion.
 Appropriations are expected to be more than tripled with large amount going to the extermination of predatory animals.
 Charlie Gillian, who is at pres ent doing an extermination job at Kenai, is expected to arrive in April and with his plane and a special formula is scheduled to do some work in this area from the air on the wolf menace.
 Garnet stated that no changes were made in the present game laws or to the present dates for open season.
 Another interesting plan being worked on by the commission is the uniting of the Fish with the Wild Life departments as both have functioned separately here tofore.
 Before leaving for Juneau, Gar net was requested by many resi- dents to bring up the subject of the diminishing ptarmigan. When he had the matter thoroughly in- vestigated it was revealed that ptarmigan seem to work on an eleven year cycle which can be traced back to 1905. Every elev- enth year they practically disap- pear for some reason and then start to increase. This year incl dentally happens to be the elev- enth year in the cycle which will mean few birds in the area.
