Giant Flattops
 Planned for Navy

WASHINGTON, CP) - Planes big enough to carry atomic bombs may be able to operate from a giant new American aircraft car rier.
 The proposed addition of a co., OOO-80, ,OO0-ton mammoth flattop and eight other experimental war craft to the nations arsenal of new weapons was first hinted at a month ago by President Truman.
 The President proposed in his budget message to Congress that S230,000,000 which would have gone into ships now on the ways be used instead to build fighting craft of advanced design"
 The projected new vessel will be of the flush-deck type. That is, the Island" superstructure famil- far on all other American carriers will be missing. This island, jut- ting out arhwart the flight deck has placed a limit on the wing span of planes which could take off and land.
 In addition to the new carrier Sullivan said the navy intends, i Congress approves, to: l Build four submarines capable of high speed while submerged and presumably equipped witt German-developed features enab ling them to remain under Wate for long periods.
 Build new "hunter-killer" shil of destroyer-like speed but large and outfitted with improved de lection gear to locate enemy sub marines.
 Convert a 27,OO0-ton Essex clas carrier and two submarines. Wha that modernization would includ Sullivan did not say.

Prices Falling On Grain Market

NEW YORK, (PJ - Prices of most grains extended their slide downward today, but at a slower pace. At the same time the stock market showed signs af regaining it's balance.
 Opening prices on the exchang- es were little help in answering whether this weeks precipitate drop in commodity and stock prices was a temporary correction or a permanent change in trend.
 But wheat failed for the first time in three days to drop the all loWable daily limit at the opening of the Chicago board of trade. And September and December oats contracts even managed slight ad- vances.
 Corn again hit its limit decline.
 Stocks were no worse than mixed on New York's exchange after losing around $l,5OO0OO,O 1000 in market value in two days. The commodity markets were closely watched by those seeking to determine if the upward spiral in the cost of living might be al an end.

 "Yes, sometimes once -, week, sometimes twice." she re- H piled. "

 As Mrs. Bridges took the stand, committee chairman Albert Can-- well announced that during her testimony the hearing room doors would be locked and no one per- mitted to enter or leave the room until she had been safely escorted from the armony afterwards.
 Testimony of Mrs. Bridges came as a surprise climax to the hear ing after it was apparently ready to conclude with the reading of 52-page statement into the record by committee investigator Ernest P. Smith

End Of Indias Salt Tax Fails
 To Help Poor
CP) NeWSfeatureS

NEW DELHI-Abolition of the tax on salt, an impost by the for mer British rulers of India which this cOuntry's patriots fought as a badge of servitude, has brought little benefit to the poor man, to whom availability of salt means life itself.
 l pr. Syama Prasad Mookerji, minister of industry and supply, told the constituent assembly that salt production remains 10 per cent below the country's needs, and the price actually has risen in some areas since the heavy tax was removed.
 Although partiots sacrificed their lives and endured imprison- ment to fight the salt tax as an injustice especially to the poor, Mookerji said "in areas where supplies are deficient the benefits of the abolition of the salt tax have gone solely to the producers and middlemen."
 The tax represented two thirds of the retail purchase price, and its abolition was one of the first actions of the free Indian govern ment.
 Large quantities of salt must be eaten by the people to compen- Sate for the loss of bodily salt in India's heat, and it is an import ant item in the poor mans food budget.
 The salt tax was heritage from rule by the old East India Com pany, whose ships arriving in In dia carried salt as ballast, sold it to the people who were forbidden to manufacture their own.
 Salt manufacture later became British -Indian government mo- nopoly, and people including Ma hatma Gandhi were imprisoned for evaporating sea water to ob- tain tax free salt.

| Penn State in Debut
As Eastern Colleges
Join Grid Parade
~ the Associoted Prsss

NEW YORK. Oct. 1.-Penn States
mythical Eastern champions, all
victorious in 1947, make their 1948
debut tomorrow on a National COL
legiate football program which also
brings several other major elevens
into action for the first time this
season.
Four Ivy League clubs-Harvard,
Dartmouth, Princeton and defend
ing champion Pennsylvania-make
their initial appearances, as much
as two weeks behind some Of the
squads in other parts Of the land.
Although they have yet to be
tested under fire, the Nittany Lions
of Penn State, who capped their
great 1947 season by playing South
ern Methodist to q tie in the Cotton
Bowl game, appear to have the
easiest assignment in this group.
Penn State opens against Buck
nell. Pennsylvania, unbeaten but
once tied last year. opens at home
against Dartmouth. Harvard, now
operating under . new coaching
regime, entertains a Columbia team
which stopped Rutgers, 27-6, last
week. And Princeton opens at home
against Brown, beaten last week by
Yale.
Probably the top intersectional
battle on tomorrow's card will be
the tussle At Ann Arbor between
Michigan, the Big Nine and Rose
Bowl champion, and Oregon, which
has hopes of representing the
Pacific Coast in the Rose Bowl next
New Years day.
Southern California also invades
Ohio State for another intersec-
tional headliner and Purdue, loser
by . single point to Notre Dame
last week, goes into Northwestern
for an important Big Nine Con-
ference argument.
Most of the interest in Dixie will
be concentrated for the day in
Georgia. Georgia Tech. favored to
win the Southeastern Conference
title and 1870 winner over Wander
bilt last week, will be at home in
Atlanta against Tulane team that
seems to be going places after slip
ping past Alabama, 21-14.
At the same time in Athens, the
University of Georgia Bulldogs will
be testing the pride of the Southern
Conference. North Carolina pow
erhouse which walloped Texas. 34-7.
The week end gets of to a fast
start tonight with the usual num-
ber OF early season arc light con-
tests. These include Marquette at
Detroit, Missouri at ST. Louis. South
Carolina at Furman, Colorado A.
and M. at Utah State. Idaho State
at Colorado college and Rollins Col

Many times this column has car
ried stories of the harm done to fish
or game by unscrupulous, so-called
sportsmen. One of our good friends
has called us to task for constantly
hitting at such unsportsmanlike ac-
tivities, contending that the con-
tinued harping against fish and
game violations develops in the
minds of many readers a complex
which makes them link all hunters
and fishermen in this same cate
CORY.
This, he contends, is particularly
true of landowners, on whose gen.
erosity most city nimrods have to
depend for their sport. Many of
them, especially where out-of-state
hunters and fishermen are con-
cerned, become so warped in their
thinking, that they put up the bars
