200 Head Of Cattle
Jam Baltimore Yards.
Over Long Holiday
Rx tho A,serintad Pres,

BALTIMORE, Sept. 5.-About
1900 head Of cattle were jammed
into Union Stockyards here to-
day, waiting for the market to
reopen Tuesday after the long
holiday weekend.
Lawrence Halter. president Of
the stockyards. said a number
of reasons contributed to the
jam.
Heat and drought conditions
the past 10 days led growers, par
ticularly in Virginia and West
Virginia. to send their animals
to market in unusually large
numbers.
Packing houses bit off sales
suddenly late in the week so they
would not have to carry cattle
over the holiday period.
Beef has been moving slowly
at retail outlets.
The 1900 head on hand are
by no means a record. The pens
were crowded with 5000 animals
earlier in the week. the largest
supply since last October.
Mr.. Halter said many cattle
men rushed their animals 10
market because the hot sun had
scared pastures. With no grass
to Craze them on, it was either
buy feed or market them, and
the growers we're reluctant to
spend money for feed in the face
Of lower cattle prices.
The stockyards president also
reported many cattlemen are
fearful that prices will go even
lower and so rushed to market
the stock they had on hand.
Prices already are running 20
to so per cent below year ago

OSLO, Norway IA throng Of
1000 persons lined Oslo's water
front last night to cheer the liner
Stavangerfjord after her 2,O50-mile
Atlantic trip without a rudder.
The big liner, whose captain
steered with the vessels twin pro-
pellers after she lost her rudder
in a hurricane Dec. 8, locked only
two days lat.
Many Of the Stavangerfjord's ga
passengers were Americans OF
Scandinavian origin from Mime

old country for Christmas.
The liner was three days and
1000 miles out Of New York when
the accident occurred. The rest of
the trip took nine days.

practically the beginning of the

On the lower tip Of the island
Of Manhattan, the Dutch settlers
threw up earthworks, and within
them built a chapel 10 St. Mich

Soviet Pushes
FOrEffective
New Fleet
by ELTON c. FAY
AP Military Affairs Raparfar

~ W1Hit@IV kAH0tEA M00oFt0f
WASHINGTON B--Swift, highly
maneuverable cruisers, destroyers,
submarines and troop-carrying
merchantmen are going into the
new fleet Russia is creating for
use II she CANDLES on q conquest
o. Europe.
Some OF her submarines are
rated as rivals in underwater
speed to the new us. atomic
models.
Authorities here estimated that
in cruiser construction alone
Soviet building during the last few
years has exceeded the total built
by the United States and its North
Atlantic Treaty Organization allies.
Currently, Russia Is believed to
have more than 80 cruisers built
or building, including an ultramod-
ern, swift, highly maneuverahle
type designated as the Sverdloy
class.
Only one Of the class has been
seen by the Western world, when
II appeared for Britain's corona
ton ceremonies last summer. Pre-
sumably il and others are based
at White Sea ports, like Murmansk,
toward which the Sverdlov was
seen heading after II sailed from
England. Cruisers like this are es-
pecially useful as raiders against
combatant and merchant ships Of
other nations and in support of
amphibious landing operations.
The Sverdlov, listed by the Rus
slams as a l2,OOO-ton ship, but
seeming much heavier, maneu-
vered swiftly and easily as Western
naval experts watched il on its
visit last summer.
Equipment of the Sverdlov class
compares favorably with that Of
the best American and British
eombatant craft. Fire control radar
equipment for the main armament
apparently about six-inch weap-
ons) and anti-arcraft weapons
were noted.
Naval men still estimate the
size Of the Soviet submarine force
at about 800 craft, a figure used
as far back as 194S. But since
then modern craft, presumably in
GLIDING the Type XVI submer.
sibles designed by Germany's sub
marine experts, are rapidly replac-
ing the conglomeration of older
subs which the SovietS had or In
herited by capture at the end of
World War II. The Type XVI is
powered by a closed cycle engine
which requires no oxygen for COM
bustion, permitting prolonged oper-
alton at great depths and high
speed. Underwater speed up to Is
knots is probable, a speed which
approaches that expected for the
United States atomic powered
subs now being built.
A major use for Russian sub.
marines would be TO attack Allied
supply and troop ships bringing
help to Europe If the Soviets
launched war.
However, on the basis of their
own progress in that field, Ameri.
can naval authorities also now
reckon with the probability that
Russia is building or converting
submarines for launching of guild.
ed missiles.
The Red fleet has displayed little
or no interest in aircraft carriers.
But there is believed to exist a
stable naval air arm Of land.
