Cattle Receipts Light
On First Day Of Curbs
Protests Pouring In
DiSoIIe Defends Order,
Denies Any PIons for
Rotioning of Meat
BY the Associoted Press

CHICAGO. May 21.-Cattle re-
ceipts at the Nations stockyards
were generally light today as price
controls went into effect on live
beef animals.
At IL principal markets the
Agriculture Department estimated
that 41.100 cattle were received
today. This compared with 77,7OO
head on deck last Monday and
$500 for the date a year ago.
The new cattle price order re-
quires packers to limit average
prices of their cattle purchases to
a level 10 per cent below the
averages for January.
The order was put into effect
yesterday but today is the first
day of trading under it.
Cattle merchants said it was too
early to say whether the low re-
ceipts resulted from arbitrary eff.
fects of the price control order
Light receipts today, they said
were expected after last weeks
rush Of finished animals to mar
ket.
Other ROllbacks Due.
Heavy receipts last week
brought cattle prices down to a
point where no sharp effects OF
the order were expected to appear
in the fiscal statistics.
The price rollback on live cattle
is only a part of the Governments IS
program designed to bring about
price reductions of approximately
10 cents a pound for beef in the
butcher shops by October /.
Already in effect are price CELL
ings on wholesale and retail beet
sales. The restrictions which went
into effect today are calculated
the Office of Price Sterilization
says, to ease the squeeze effect ot
earlier controls on the wholesalers
and retail butchers.
Additional rollbacks in prices OF
both cattle and meat will be made
August l and October /.
Trouble Is Predicted.
Today's order brought predic-
tions, both of increasingly effec-
tive imitation control and of dire
troubles in the industry.
Immediately, there were rum
bles of protest-warning that the
order would spur black market
operations and that it amounted
to "conf1scation."
But Michael v. Disable, director
of OPS, said the order is fair and
necessary. He denied that there is
any present intention of rationing
meat and said that under the
regulation, prices still will be high
enough to bring meat to market.
Here's what the new order does
l. Requires packers to buy cat
tie at prices averaging 10 per cent
below January levels.

are willing to throw themselves
upon the court"
Adonis. who never has spent a
day in Jail in his 48 years. despite

All five men pleaded to a charge
OF gambling conspiracy in the
operation of the dice games and
to three other indictments charg-
ing them with maintaining disor-
derly houses for gambling.
Rumors of Deal Widespread.
The State had elected to try
them only on the conspiracy count
today.
Rumors of a deal in the case
had been widespread over the week
end.
Last night. Mr.. Selser said he
had made overtures to State At
torney General Theodore D. Par
sons to change the innocent pleas
for all but Adonis and Moretti in
exchange for lighter sentences.
Adonis appeared in the court
room dressed in a brown flannel
suit, white shirt and brown figured
tie. He joined in the huddle Of
defendants in the pre- trial nego-
tiationS.
The short, stocky gambler was
cited for contempt of the Senate
