zen. Down in Mississippi the darl-

of about twenty whites went to a
home of a father of nine children,

Justice is or was there. If those
had been Negroes going to a white

Germany remained an explosive
issue in the strife-torn international
picture.
AS the titantic East-West struggle
for Berlin continues, reports were
current that four-poWer talks would
be resumed in IN attempt to settle
the crisis there as well as to scan
the entire European situation. The

In the biggest air lift in history,
U. S. and British planes continued
to transport food and fuel to the

averaged 1850 tons of essential

LIVING COSTS:
Hit Peak

They changed the name-from
cost of living index to consumers
price index-but they still can't
change the trend-upward and ever
upward.
In fact, the index struck an all
time high on June Is, with food
prices reaching record-shattered lev
els, the bureau of labor statistics
reports.
The index, which represents re-
tail prices Of goods and services
bought by moderate income fam
lies in large cities, registered
l7l.7 per cent of the 1859 av-
erage.
Further increases are inevitable,
too, for wholesale prices hit an all
time high during the week ended
July II and it takes about a month
for their impact to be recorded in
retail prices.
The new consumers price index
is 9.3 per cent higher than a year
ago; 1873 per cent above June, 1916,
when price controls generally were
abandoned. and TAI per cent above
the August, 1889. level. On VI Day
in 1915 the same index was 1875 per
cent of the 1859 average.

A-BOMBS:
New Force

The veil of secrecy which has
shrouded most of the postwar
atomic energy experiments was
lifted, a tiny BIT at least, for the
American public in the fourth semi
annual report of the atomic energy
commission and an accompanying
statement by President Truman.
Justifying the secrecy, the Presi-
dent contended that until controls
are established on the international
level to prevent use of atomic
energy for military purposes I'VE
cannot, as a nation, afford to dis
close these secrets which make
this new force the most deadly
form of military weapon" With
that statement, the American peo-
pie. a~nxiously cycling war clouds
on the horizon. are inclined to
agree.
Some Measure of reinsurance was
contained in both reports, stress
ing the fact that the nation has
gained new power in atomic Wea-
pons. Both disclosed that the secret
tests of new type bombs at the
proving grounds on Eniwetok
island early this year we're highly
successful.
The commissions report, the
fourth semi-annual summary to
congress as provided by law, indi-
Gated there were three bombs used
at Eniwetok in the spring project
known as "Operation Sandstone"
Principal study was ION the gen
Grafton of nuclear explosion itself"
rather than Ion the effects of the
nuclear explosion" as was the
cas- in the earlier Bikini tests.
The report stressed develop
ments of atomic energy research in
medicine. agriculture. metallurgy,
other SCIENCES and industry. Radio
active materials have been given
229 institutions and commercial
agencies for experimentation.

WHEAT:
Coal Cut

AS clogged elevators and en-
forced embargoes once again mark
the nations harvest of another
bumper wheat crop, the department
of agriculture recommends a cut
of 8 per cent in wheat acreage in
its preliminary recommendations
for the l949 crop year.
Although continued high produc-
ton of other major grain commodi-
ties is recommended. a slight de-
crease is suggested for wheat acre
age, which has increased sharply IN
| recent years in response to war and
relief needs.
Looking forward in a move to con-
serve the country's soil resources,
the department points out that "a
better balance between soil-conserv-
ing and soil-depleting crops will
actually assure higher productivity
over a longer period of years.
Farmers also are urged to pro-
vide for sufficient summer fallow
and. in marginal areas, to plant
grass seed on land which is not
suitable for sustained production
of crops.
Also considered In arriving at
the wheat goal were this years in
creased c~arry-over, prospects that
the 1913 crop will be second largest
in history and possibility of small
er demand because of improved
crops in importing countries.
The department recommended
wheat paintings for 1949 of Tl.5
million acres which, with an av-
erage yield of Is bushels an acre,
would mean production of nearly
IL billion bushels. July estimate
of 1913 wheat production was L.
24l, ISL, 900 bushels.
In setting another farm goal, the
department recommended a beef
cattle breeding herd of 1875 million
cows next January l, a decrease of
about 500, 900 head. Better. manage,
ment, improved feeding practices
and thorough culling, it was sug-
gested, will put the cattle indus
try in better position to supply the
meat requirements of the increased
population"
The recommendations are SUBJ
mitted to state agricultural councils
for consideration. State goals and
final national goals Ire determined
on the basis of state review and
recommendations. =

CONGRESS-:
Feudin' and Fightin'

Bitter determinations resounded
as the fight between President Tru-
man and the GoP-controlled con-
gress moved into a new round
with converting of the extra session
of the 80th congress.
In a dynamite-laden atmosphere.
the President appeared before a
Joint session of the congress which
he had labeled lone of the worst
in history to demand a sweeping
anti-infiation economic program.
The reception for both the Presi-
dent and his program was cool as
Republicans launched their wreck
ing-crew tactics.
l. Defiant COP leaders charged Mr..
Truman with playing politics and
prepared to play politics of their
own. The net result, it appeared,
would be a short special session.
Initial step in the COPS pro-
gram of obstruction was a decision
that the extra session should con
slider only those recommendations
made by Mr.. Truman which could
pass a test" This test, established
by the majority conference, set the
qualifications for congressional ac-
ton as follows:
Proposed legislation must be
emergency in character.
1t must contain a problem of
national importance.
1t must be a program which
can be processed properly with
in the time available to an
emergency session.
This available time for process
ing would be no longer than a
period of congress which would not
interfere with the proper conduct
of the autumn campaigns.
No appropriation bills yer to be
considered, nor would any consid-
Grafton be given to confirmation of
nominations which might be sent
to the senate by the President.
Over all hung the threat of a
Dixie Democrats filibuster against
the anti-poll tax bill, which would
widen the rift between Mr.. Truman
and the southern wing of his party.
There were no surprises in the
Presidents recommended legiS-
lative package. He proposed a re-
imposition of the excess profits tax,
limited restoration of price con-
trolls, even more limited wage con-
trolls and enactment of the Taft
Ellender- Wagner housing bill.
