Lower Cattle Prices
Expected # Drought
Lingers in Virginia
By the Associoted Press

Virginia's drought-conscious
cattlemen faced two forecasts
today-one about rain, the other
about prices.
The price prediction came
from the State Agriculture De-
partment, which said if the
Seven-week-old drought contin-
ues for another As days cattle
prices will drop an additional
25 per cent. Such prices already
are depressed So per cent from
highs of April, 1852.
The second forecast came
from the Weather Bureau, which
foresaw continued GOODNESS to-
day but no rain. Washington's
f1ve-day forecast anticipated
showers totaling one-half inch
over the week end. One of the
coolest spots in the country yes
terday, with a high of rs de-
grees, the District was scheduled
to warm up a bit today, with
a high near 81.
Use Winter Supplies.
The dry weather in many Sec
tionS of the State has caused
some cattlemen-and dairymen
to use feed supplies they had
been saving for winter use.
The Agriculture Department
said the price decline would
come if cattlemen continued to
place a heavy load of animals on
a cluttered market.
Agriculture officials said gen.
eral soaking rain is needed. to
break the States drought which
is working it's way into Southeast
Virginia. Statistician Henry M.
Taylor of the Federal-Sta Crop
Reporting Service said another
10 days of dry weather could
push Virginia's total crop dam
age to 500 million.
Press Protests Ban.
Meanwhile, it was reported
from Roanoke that the chairman
of the freedom of information
committee Of Virginia members
Of the Associated Press had pro-
tested strongly the barring of
press representatives from a
meeting of the Governors emer-
gency drought committee.
