baby sitting the other day, to
have a little talk with Joe. Found
him clicking out, with his three
down the middle, right where he
wanted them. Nothing much was
said, but | just thought to myself
what a swell golfer!
One of these days Joe Lopez
will come into his own, and we'll
have a top golfer right at our
front door steps. AS a matter of
fact, we've got one now, except
that during tournament some
thing just little something, goes
a fraction wrong, and as a rule
that small something means the
hairline between fame and just
the usual golfer.
After Joe had smacked out his
last ball some two hundred TWEEN
ty yards, he came over and sat
down alongside my boy and me.
After catching his breath, / ask
ed, What went wrong, Joe?"
Looking down the fairway with
a sigh, he replied, well Parson,

well, / guess not, Parson. AS a

Gen. Young Sees Pointers
For D. T.. in Lisbon HOUSING

Washington may get a few
pointers on planning low-cost
housing from the program In
Portugal when Brig. Gen. Gordon
r. Young, Engineer Commissioner,
gets together some more data on
the subject.
Gen. Young had time only to
acquaint himself with the broad
points of the program in Lisbon
during his trip there to attend
an international rivers and har-
borS conference last month, but
he is going to find out more
about it.
He said he was attracted by the
apparent quality of the housing
which he saw in Lisbon and vicin-
Iity, comprising about $4,000 units,
and the spacious scale on which
1t is planned.
He added he understood the
work was done by private enter
prise, with government help in
varying degrees. ...
He reported the dwellings
which range from semi detached
to the four or FIVE story walk-ur
types. according to the income
bracket for which they are de-
signed, are Of stucco, coated with
attractive pastel shades of paint

Weights Chief Cites
Meat 0vercharges at
SeIf-Service Counters

The self service meat counter
has met with the apparent ap-
proval of the Washington public,
but it has been of considerable
concern" to the Department of
Weights. Measures and Markets,
the Commissioners were informed
yesterday.
In his annual report for the
fiscal year ended last June 80,
Director j. T. Kennedy said it had
been necessary to maintain con-
slant surveillance of these meat
counters.
The difficulty seems to be
mainly due to shrinkage of meat" "
he wrote. "Such shrinkage has
not, as yet, been controlled"
He added that employment of
inexperienced help in many of
the stores operating these counters
had resulted in many packages of
meat being marked with excessive
prices. All store owners having
this type of operation have been
notified that future violations
like those already found will be
cause for prosecution" he de-
clared.
Mr.. Kennedy reported receipts
from markets operated under the
supervision of the department ex-
ceeded those for the same markets
during the previous fiscal year
by $2.455. All showed profit
he noted.
He listed receipts as follows:
Fish Wharf and Market, $34 ,459;
Farmers Produce Market, $12,296;
Eastern Market, $12,664; and
Western Market, $10.884.
During the fiscal year, he in
formed the commissioners, the de-
partment made 81 arrests, bring
ing about fines and collateral
forfeitures of $4,315.
In addition to the arrests, he
said warnings were issued to many
merchants violating the law In
minor instances.

FOOTBALL ePoOLs" LOST OUT

Report hath it that 10 of the 12 football pools which started out the season betting against the judgment of pigskin fans folded early result of upsets Occasionally such befall the gentry who back their judgment against that of horse players but the sport of kings is well organized-rom the bookmakers standpoint-that can't recall any sea- in which nearly all of the bookies were confrontd with simultaneous bankruptcy.
 There probably is sort of devious moral in this if one to ferret it out The most obvious explanation would to be that football games are incomparably harder to fix than horse races. Or putting it in more pleasant terms the man in the street is denied inside information on the intentions of jockeys and trainers in the Of horsf racing (which is very technical business), but 1n football the studous fan has just as much knowledge available to him the sharpshooter who rates the teams on the football pool cards.

U. s. Food Su-p.uses

Brannan and Acheson had jcint session at the White House the other day at which they gave the President the following facts:
 The Department of Agriculture now has in its bins 236 million pounds of dried skinned milk, 30 million pounds of butter and GA million pounds of dried eggs. worth total of about 360 million dol lars. But Europens will not eat the dried milk and eggs. The wheat on hand, which they will eat, is just enough to supply regular cus- toners and keep a small reserve in case of emergency. Corn isn't popu- lar in Europe and can't easily be shipped abroad.
 So far the only crops curtailed in this country are tobacco, peanuts and potatoes. Peanuts are too ex- rensive for basic food, and potatoes can be shipped overseas only when refrigeration conditions are right

World Fcol Bank


 There has been a lot of backstage Cabinet debate over the LIN Food and Agriculture Organization's plan to feed the worlds needy areas from US. farm surpluses. Though President Truman has given his official blessing, his Secretary of State and Secretary of Agriculture are definitely against it.
 They are not opposed to the prin- ciple of feeding the hungry, but to the cost and machinery involved. What the TAO advocates is an in- ternational clearinghouse where sur plus commodities could be gathered, then distributed to impoverished nations. Secretary Acheson's oppO- sition to this idea has been well known, but 1t was thought Secre- tary Brannan was opposed to him. However he is not. Their joint op- position is based on the fact that a world food clearinghouse would cost an estimated five billion dol lars, to be divided among nations according to their national income, which would mean Uncle Sam would foot about half the bill. Tn ether words, it would cost Uncle Sam about 500 million dollars the first year to give away only 360 million dollars worth of surpluses.
 Therefore Acheson and Grammar argue that it would be cheaper Just to give away the surpluses. They are sure Congress will think so too.

COP and CoIored Vote

Even more interesting is the political background behind Daw- sons appointment.
 The Chicago district which sends him to Congress used to be Re- publican. And during the Herbert Hoover landslide in 1928, it sent Oscar de Priest, Negro Republican, to Congress first Negro elected to that body in many years. Result was hue and cry from Washington Society, including many Republi- cans, that Congressman de Priest should not be invited to the regular White House reception which the President gives to all members ot Congress.
 President Hoover did not take a fortnight stand on the matter, and although de Priest was finally in- vited, the debate hurt the COPS standing with the big-city Negro populations. Various other factors were involved, of course, such as FDR's relief program, and Tru- mans Civil Rights program, but ever since then, the Republicans have lost the Negro vote
 Today. two Negroes are members of Congress-Dawson from Chicago and Adam Clayton Powell of Har- lem, N. Y. Dawson is always invit- ed to Congressional receptions, but Powell. whose wife Truman dislikes, is not.

The first shipload, intended for Europe after the war, had to be dumped in the bay before it left port.
 These were the arguments that Acheson and Grammar took to Pre- sident Truman. He agreed that first emphasis should be placed on his point four" program to help backward countries help themselves. But he didn't want to appear un- charitable nor to throw cold water on the food and agriculture organi- zation. So he promised to work wholeheartedly' with TAO in plan ming better food distribution, though he will not support the food clearnghouse idea.
