Drop
Due in Price
Of Yellow 0|eo
Stores Here Expect
Cost to Fall With
End of Tax July !

Yellow oleomargarine will drop
about 10 cents pound in most
retail stores here July when the
Federal tax ends, District dealers
said today.
That situation also will apply
generally in 80 States which au-
thorize sale of yellow oleomar-
garine. an official of the National
Association Of Manufacturers
said. >.
The price drop will result from
Congressional repeal of the Fed
eral tax of 10 cents a pound on
yellow margarine, one-fourth of
a cent a pound on uncolored mar
garine, and license fees levied on
dealers.
Price Cuts Planned.
While it is not certain at this
time that all dealers here and
elsewhere will pass on the full tax
savings to customers. spokesmen
for several large retail stores here
said they plan to cut the price
about 10 cents as soon as the tax
repeal becomes effective.
Yellow margarine in most re-
tail establishments here sells be-
tween Al and "A cents a pound. A
drop of 10 cents would bring the
price down to the level now
charged for uncolored margarine
brands.
Plenty Seen Available.
Paul Truitt, president of the Ma
tional Association of Margarine
Manufacturers. predicted that
housewives would be able to get
plenty of yellow margarine July
l at the lower price. -.
The industry, he said, expects
yellow margarine to replace the
white almost completely on gro-
cery shelves after June 80, except
in States which still ban sale of
the colored product.
Those States are Delaware,
Pennsylvania. New York, Connect
icut, Vermont, Illinois, Iowa,
Michigan. Minnesota, Montana.
Wisconsin, South Dakota, Oregon,
Washington and Wyoming.

CAA Closing Midway
For Pacific Flights
As Navy Withdraws
BY fhs Assoeiofed Press

Midway Island is being aban-
doned as a stopover for planes
flying the Pacific.
The Civil Aeronautics Admins
tration announced yesterday 1t Is
closing its facilities there for
civilian aircraft, effective May /
Its action followed the Navy's
decision to withdraw from the
island, 1910 miles west of Homo
lulu.
The Navy had supplied runway
maintenance, search and rescue
crews, and lights, water and other
community facilities for the island.
The CAA has operated a COM
munications station, radio range
and similar facilities.
The CAA estimated it would
cost about 100000 annually to
keep up its operations without
Navy assistance. An additional
$695 900 would be needed, it said,
to modify facilities to meet civil
ian needs.
Pan American Airways has been
using Midway regularly as a stop
over on flights from the United
States to Japan. Other civilian
planes also have used it infre-
Quently.
These plans will now bypass
Midway and land at Wake, which
Is about 2,30l miles from Homo
lulu.
