1871. The world supply situation Is
equally tight. The SURPRISES piled
UP during World war 2 have been
depleted and world consumption in
the coming year win be limited to
current production.
The problem with meat arises
chiefly from strong consumer de-
mand. Production in 1850 was IA
percent above 1941 and is expected
to increase further this year. How
ever, the increase expected in con-
sumner demand will place a heavy
pressure on supplies.
STUDY MACHINERY NEEDS
A full-scale investigation of
the farm machinery situation has
been proposed in congress by
Rep. Victor Wickersham of
Oklahoma.
The proposal calls for a study Of
farmers needs to determine the re-
uuirements for critical materials es-
sential to manufacturing farm equip
ment, the necessity for securing al
locations and the necessity for other
products which might be manufac-
tured by the farm machinery and
equipment industry.
Wickersham described farm equip
ment as the machine tools" of agri-
culture and pointed out that food
and fiber goals for 1851 are higher
than production in 1850 and that it is
essential that farmers have at least
as much machinery as in 1850.
1t is estimated equipment makers
win require at least 2,760,000 tons of
steel during 1851.

MEAT PRICES WATCHED

Although farm prices rose
about ESQ percent between the
start of the Korean war and mid
December. they still were about
percent below the record level
set in January. ls4s.
Meantime, prices paid by farm
ers for goods and services used in
family living and farm production
have set new record.
In mid-December, nine major COM
modities were at or above permissive
minimum price ceiling levels au-
thorized by the economic stabiliza-
ton act. They included cotton, rice,
tobacco, wool, beef cattle, lambs and
veal calves.
All other important commodities
were selling for less than minimum
ceiling levels.
No price ceilings have been set on
any farm commodities, but ESA Of
ficials have said meat prices were
being closely watched.
Congress has authorized the de-
Tense department to build up a
$350,000,000 stockpile of raw wool
and textiles for the three branches
of the armed forces-army, navy
and air force.
In testimony before the senate ap-
preparations committee, defense Of
ficials disclosed they are seeking
ways of blending wool to make it
go further.
Sen. Joseph c. O'Mahoney of Wyo-
ming, recalled that wool state SEN
ators had urged the munitions board
to stockpile wool sometime ago, and
had it done so the defense agency
could have got the wool for much
lower price than it is available for
new.

Keeping In Toaeb With Washington
Larger Grain Reserve
Urged as Insurance

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Private
farm and economic experts are urg-
ing the government to build UP the
nations grain reserves as insurance
in the event of World war 3.
The request has come from the
agricultural policy committee of
fhe National Planning Assn.
private non-profit group whose
purpose is planning in agricul-
lure. business and other lines.
1--WE cannot gamble on getting the
same kind of weather in the SOS as in
the 40s," the committee said. "A
prudent storage policy should pre-
pare for series of grain crops wen
below those of the last several
years"
Only SUCK" said the committee,
saved us from food disaster during
World war 2, when harvests of grain
reached record proportions.
The committee conceded that
heavy buying of grains by the gov
eminent involves danger of inflan-
ing the initiation of prices" but it
added:
UNLESS congress and the fiscal
monetary authorities move more Wig
orously to balance the budget and
stem the tide of money expansion,
setting aside extra grain now might
force direct controls in food.
"Even at this risk, however, we
must be prepared with food reserves.
"Claims upon our grain supplies
are greater than ever before.
Western Europe, the keystone of our
defense, is dependent upon us for
much of its food. In the event OF
. general war it no longer can draw
from the east. A crop failure in
western Europe could be met only
by the United States"
The United States, the group said
should add 200,0O0,000 bushels to re.
serve stockpiles during the current
cattle-feeding season by cutting corr
consumption. It estimated this would
mean reserves of about 1000, 1000. 00(
bushels by Oct. l, 1851. Similarly
wheat reserves should be built up by
100000 bushels by next July.
The committee pointed out tina
the secretary of agriculture has au
thority under the agriculture act O
1949 to increase reserves either b,
boosting loan rates to farmers fo
bigger grain crops or by going int,
the market to buy grain.

MEAT. WOOL. COTTON SHORT

MEAT. WOOL. COTTON SHORT
Three farm products most
likely 10 cause the biggest head
aches in 1851 are meat. wool and
cotton.
This is the opinion of the u. S.
department of agriculture in an out
look report prepared for Rep. Harold
D.. Cooley of North Carolina, chair
man of the house agriculture COM
mittee.
Supplies of these vital commodi-
ties are short in relation to demands
growing out of the defense program.
The department said that farmers
with normal weather and neces-
sary labor, supplies and equipment
are prepared to produce the food and
the fiber the nation must have to
meet both civilian and national de-
tense needs in 1851.
Cotton stocks are low compared
with past years and will be down to
a minimum working level when the
present marketing season ends next
July 81, the department said. Farm
ers have been asked to increase pro-
duction at least so percent next year.
Wool stocks are low and produc-
ton is more than 40 percent below

Mary Hood Chapman Has Story In Sept. 22 Issue Saturday Evening Post

For the second time in one month the famed Saturday Even ing Post has published a short story by a Nome author. In the Sept. 22d issue appears "The Bank CT and the Babe," by Mary Hood Chapman.
 Mary Hood, as she was famil- iarly called in Nome, is a gradu- ate of Nome's grade and high schools, and of the University of Alaska. In recent years she has resided in New York.
 Sally Carrighar's classic animal story, "The Wayward Fox," ap- peared in the Post issue of Sept. 1st. Miss Carrighar, well-known naturalist, has been a Nome resi- dent for several years.
 Nome itself was featured, not long ago, in the Posts series of Interesting Cities of America" !"
 We would say that the Post has done we'll by the storied little metropolis of the northern Boring Sea coast, and that Nome's auth ors have reciprocated in kind.

Jap Cabinet Changed
But Life May Be Short
BY the Assoeiaied Press

| TOKYO, July 4. Prime Min
lister Shigeru Yoshida has a new
cabinet-but it was expected to
last little more than a month.
Yoshida had the old cabinet
quit in body yesterday in hopes
he could form coalition govern
ment for the signing of a japanese
peace treaty.
But the parties opposed to
Yoshidas Liberals turned deaf
ear So the prime minister, who
doubles as Japan's foreign min
lister, was forced to fall back on
his own workhorses.
Political sources predict another
month of behind the scenes ma
neuvers will induce the powerful
Peoples Democratic Party to join
with the Liberals in a coalition.
Then a new cabinet shuttle can be
expected.
Another opposition party, the
Socialists, denounced the new
government as unconstitutional
and dictatorial.
The newspaper Yomiuri said it
did not like the men named to the
new cabinet. Five are new. The
other eight are holdovers.
Asahi, another newspaper, said
Democrats should have been in
cluded. Individual Democrats had
agreed to work with Yoshida. But
the party leader, Takeo Mkt, said
his party was not ready to CO.
operate with the Liberals.
