But where Mr.. Citizen comes in
is in the matter of what those

already had q taste of that. Early
in 1941 he bought a bond for
$75. He will cash it in next month
for $100. But in terms Of loaves
Of bread. shoes for his children
and tires for his car, the 500 isn't
worth as much as the $75 was

Lit. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway
said today that the soldiers of
many lands, fighting in his United
States 9th Army, have developed
into splendid combat force.
The former paratrooper particu-
larly praised the British, French,
Turks and Greeks.
THE French battalion has lived
up to the finest traditions of the
best of the French Army" he said.
THE Turks have done equally
well. The Greeks are performing
splendidly.
And the British are there in
their unfailing way. We never
have to worry about the British
They always turn in a superb per-
formance.
THE other nations have not had
an equal opportunity yet to show
what they can do, but so far al
appear excellent"

Meat Price Spread
More Than Doubles
Since World War Il
by The Associoted Press

The Department of Agriculture
said today that marketing charges
added to the cost of meat after it
leaves the farm total more than
twice as much now as they did
during World War II.
Besides that, a department re-
port disclosed. the farm price is
So per cent higher.
The report said the average
meat price spread-the difference
in the farmers sale price and the
cost to the consumer-was 22.6
cents a pound on last Decem-
ber /. Under World War II con-
trolls by the Office of Price Ad-
ministration. the spread was 1913
cents.
This cost increase represents
the handling charges and profits
of those who process and distri-
butte the meat and finally sell 1t
to the householder.
Although the Government re-
port is based on December | sta
tistics, Richard o. Been, Agricul-
ture Department economist, said
the spread is even greater now
than two months ago.
The average cost of meat on
the hoof was reported at 36.2 cents
per pound in December as COM
pared to % cents during the war
years. The department said the
price climb reflected increased
production costs, including those
for labor, machinery and feed.
The average retail price of all
meats last year was SO cents a
pound, up 3 cents over 1949.
The Agriculture Department
predicted meat supplies for 1851,
Ichiefly from beef cattle and hogs,
would be increased to meet mill
tary needs and provide 3 pounds
per person more than the 145
pounds consumed in 1850.

ABCs of Bond Dispute Show Control of Initiation Is Real Issue

fered a 30 per cent bond that is
not negotiable, and he usually pre-
fers this type to 2.5 per center
with which he can play the mar
ket. But-and this is a big worry
in the mind of the Treasury De-
partment-what will the poor man
do if marketable Government
bonds are issued at 3 or 81 per
cent? Will he decide to take his
chances on fluctuations in order
to make more on the interest?
If he does this, it will knock the
Savings Bond business into q
cooked hat.
And Savings Bonds are i'm
portant to the national economy
for a number of reasons. One
is the reason Of magnitude-they
represent about one-quarter of the
whole public debt. Another is
that they sop up loose money in
time Of civilian-economy scar
city, thus curbing imitation.
Obviously, one of the two sides
IN the current controversy is right
Or at least more nearly right
than the other. Whether the right
side will win is hard to determine
now because of the difficulty In
saying which is right and which
is wrong.
But it is not so hard to pick
the probable winner. It is more
likely that the Treasury and not
the Federal Reserve Board, will
come out on top.
The Federal Reserve Board is
by law an independent agency OF
the Government and is not di-
rectly beholden to the President
as the Secretary Of the Treasury
is. But the members of the board
are appointed by the President
"by and with consent of the Sen
ate," to serve 14-year terms. A
short-term appointee. Oliver s.
Powell, will have his term expire
In 1852. BY expiration Of terms
deaths or designations the Pres
Fident might easily find himself
able in the near future to recon-
stitute the Federal Reserve Board
with men more favorable to his
views.
Then the administration would
have won the fight by default.

US. Will Propose Worldwide
 Arms Census

PARIS, P)-The United States was reliably reported today to have decided to propose a world wide arm census including a com plete accounting of all atomic weapons.
 The US. plan, which will be placed before the United Nations assembly here this week, calls for strict system of verification for the atomic accounting. This may prove to be the stumbling block which could hold up indefinitely any disclosure of the number of atom bombs in the US. and Rus Sia.
 Informed quarters said the arms proposal was the heart of the reported peace plan which President Truman will announce Wednesday night and which Sec retary of State Acheson will lay before the United Nations As sembly, perhaps on Thursday.
 Inclusion of atomic weapons in the proposed arms census repre- sents a drastic change in the US. policy. The census question has been before the JUN. since 1948, but was blocked by the Russian veto because the US. refused to include atomic weapons.

ANCHORAGE, (P) - Search was started yesterday for two men, the Civil Aeronautics Ad- ministration reported overdue Saturday night in their liver colored Cessna 140 plane, headed from Fairbanks to Anchorage.
 The CAA said the pilot was a man named Fouse, believed to be connected with the Fairbanks Air Service. The name of his pas senger was not known here.
 The pilot was flying contact along the Alaska railroad tracks. The plane had no radio. CAA said there was a possibility Fouse had landed on one of the many small fields between the two cities but was not able to get word out.

Propose Bypass Buffer Zone
 Stumbling Block

MUNSAN, Korea, (P) - The United Nations today proposed by-pasSing the cease-fire buffer zone stumbling block until a Korean armistice is ready for signing.
 The JUN. suggested perman- ent committee study the buffer zone issue while negotiators go ahead with talks on other points that must be settled before the fighting can end.
 First indications were that the Reds would reject the proposal. A briefing officer said they called it unacceptable, unfair, unjust, unreasonable"
 But, Brig. Gen. Vim. P Nuchols said, they did agree to study the plan further. If the communists agree to the proposal, the full delegations would go to work on these remaining points on the agenda:
 l. Concrete arrangements to end the shooting and supervise the truce.
 2. Exchange of prisoners of war.
 3. Recommendations to the governments of the various coun- tries concerned on both sides. (The Reds demand that all for eign troops be withdrawn from Korea comes under this heading0
 Any one of these could develop into as hard a nut to crack as the location of the ceaSe-fire buf- fer zone.

Fifth A-BOmb. Biggest Yet, Is Exploded

LAS VEGAS, New, (P -. The fifth atomic blast in the current test series exploded at 8:31 am. today.
 Thirty seconds later the atomic cloud customary in the detona- lions could be seen from Las Vegas rising over the Yucca Flat test site 75 miles away.
 It was a big one, perhaps the biggest yet, observers here who have seen the previous blasts re- ported.
 An indication of the size and potency of this detonation was indicated by an unusual warning from the Atomic Energy Com mission.
 Radio stations in a wide area covering Goldfield, Beatty, and Caliente, New, were asked to warn residents to open windows in their homes and stores.
 Presumably this would be to lessen effects of tremendous con- cussion expected.
 Seven minutes after the deton- ation there was perceptible rumble in Las Vegas, along with sudden blast of wind.
 The brilliant flash of the burst was as bright, at least as the big one last Thursday, the first det- onation in which troops partici- pated in atomic maneuvers.

ARES Is Heard From Barrow To Gulf of Alaska

MARKS AIR FORCE BASE, Nome, Oct 29-Due to the in- creased demand for better radio reception in this sector, a new vista of radio enjoyment opened for radio listeners on Oct. 14 when the new AFRS station To- cated at Marks Air Force Base, returned to the air with new studios and an increased power of 1000 watts.
 First tabulations of the huge mail response, still arriving from the interior and coastal outposts, show that almost the complete Alaska coast, from Point Barrow to the Gulf of Alaska, and com munities as far east as Fort Yu- kon, Alaska, and Dawson, Can ada, are receiving and enjoying AIRS programs, many for the first time. Boring Sea islands sush as St. Lawrence, Pribilofs, and Little Diomede also report excellent reception in their res pective areas. Looking south, dis tant communities such as Sew ard, Sitka, Dillingham;, and Mt. Edgecumbe have reported good reception.
 Due to the increased number of listeners in outlying areas, the new stations programming sched- ule has been completely re- vamped and now offers nine daily newscasts plus the best radio shows of the stateside networks as released by AFRS in Los An geles.

 Asked whether he would see Senator Duff R-Pa), who is booming Eisenhower for the Re publican presidential nomination next year, the general replied he has not heard from Duff "either directly or indirectly in a long, long time"
