REPORT TO THE
Prices Up
Due to
Cold Snap
By VIOLET FAULKNER


Be prepared TO pay more for
fresh produce this week.
The freezing temperatures
that hit Florida q week ago
have sent vegetable prices
soaring In local markets. One
retail merchant told me he's
paying 20 to as per cent more
for fresh produce than nor
mally.
String beans are scarce and
high; lima beans practically
nonexistent. New cabbage has
doubled in price. Chicory and
romaine was badly hit by the
freeze; luckily. iceberg lettuce
comes from California, Arizona
and Texas and supplies are
normal. In fact. lettuce is
listed as one Of the better
values for the week.
Tomatoes, TOO. suffered from
the weather and prices are
higher. There was some dam
age to the crop Of Florida
sweet corn, but there's not q
big demand for this vegetable
in January at best.
Strangely enough. Florida
strawberries are good in quality
and prices for the week end
are expected to be fairly rea-
sonable. I'm told.
It's like the first breath of
spring when the rosy pink
stalks Of rhubarb begin to
show up along with the first
showing of spring hats. The
rhubarb Is hot house grown
coming from Michigan.
Citrus Plentiful
One crop that came through
unseathed during the cold
snap down South was citrus.
There are abundant supplies
Of oranges and grapefruit as
well as plenty Of the frozen
concentrates on hand. Though
we get grapefruit any time Of
the year. offerings are heaviest
from January through May.
and prices most reasonable.
The current crop of grape
fruit is really large. about
Asa million boxes. 1t has been
designated as one Of the lead
ing plentiful foods on the
USDA's list for January.
Try broiled grapefruit for an
ideal waker-upper these nippy
mornings. Just put the pre-
pared halves under the broiler
for 10 to Is minutes, or until
the fruit is slightly Drowned
and heated through. And try
one Of these tasty toppings:
tablespoon sugar and q dash
Of nutmeg. cinnamon or mace.
Dot with q teaspoonful Of but
ter; teaspoon Of honey:
tablespoon Of brown sugar
blended with a teaspoon Of
butter; or drizzle maple strip
over the top and dot with but
ter. The heat brings out the
good flavor.
Other good buys in fruit for
the shopper this week are
Cortland apples from the Hud-
son Valley. emperor grapes
from California, and Western
anjou pears.

of that period, most inductees
have only approximately one and
a half years of obligated duty
left. Their assignment to a unit
overseas is. therefore. short"
A total Of some 100000 men
will leave our armed forces this
year. Simply to give basic train
ing-nothing more-to their re-
placements will cost the Ameri-
can taxpayers two and a half
billion dollars.
Twining Quoted
Air Force Chief of Staff Gen.
Nathan F. Twining, testifying be-
fore a congressional committee,
condemned this needless per-
sonnet turnover in blunt terms
both as to its cost and its damage
to our military effectiveness.
If this trend continues" said
Gen. Twining, there would be
more than a 100 per cent turn
over in the Air Force every five
years. No industry could absorb
this rate of personnel turnover
Nor can the Air Force. This rate
of turnover would lead directly
to an alarming decline in opera
tional effectiveness"
Every young man who has
served in our armed forces knows
the incredible waste of our pres
ent system of forced but short
term service. He knows the
money that could be saved, the
new efficiency that could result
from a volunteer system which
calls on young men not to endure
two years Of service because they
have to. but to choose it and for
a longer period because it offers
advantages that seem to them
appealing.
There seems to be every rea-
son for searching out ways of
making military service attrac-
tive enough that sufficient num-
bers Of young men will choose
such service voluntarily and will
then remain in the services for
longer periods.
BY cutting down on turnover
we can reduce the present enor-
nous cost of training replace
ment after replacement. The
money that is saved by this re-
duction in training costs can be
used to pay our soldiers, sailors
and airmen better salaries, to
provide them with improved
working conditions and perhaps
to offer special bonus induce
ments for longer service. In this
way we can develop a more eff
fectivs defense with higher
morale and. I believe, no higher
cost.

Strauss Says H-Tests
Are Must for Survival

i He mentioned the effects of
blast. heat and radiation among
the data needed for civil defense.
He said the Communists, sin
sharp contrast to our policy and
our parctice." provide no such
data on their own tests to help
other nations protect their pop
ulations against nuclear war.
Thus it becomes apparent"
Mr.. Strauss said, that the sur
lvival of our own people and the
Civilian populations of the en-
tire free world largely depends,
from the civil defense viewpoint,
on information which is derived
from our own carefully controlled
nuclear tests"
Without them, he added, the
Nations "defenses would de-
lteriorate, both in terms of civil
defense and in the weapons
which we need to repel any nu-
clear aggression.
On the latter point, Mr..
Strauss said the tests earlier
this year at Eniwetok placed
heavy stress on the development
of defensive weapons. including
nuclear warheads for missiles
which would be used against
enemy attacks by land, sea or
air."
He referred also. as he has be-
fore. to developments there re-
ducing the amount of radioac-
tive fallout from the newer
weapons.
Mr.. Stevenson. the Democratic
presidential nominee, has said
continued tests may cause the
human race unmeasured dam
age" largely because of what he
calls the most dreadful poison"
from radioactive fallout.
Without referring to Mr.. Ste
venson, Mr.. Strauss said:
! Exposure to radioactivity, as
a vague, unproven danger, to
generations yet unborn. must be
weighed against the more i'm
mediate and infinitely greater
dangers Of defeat and perhaps
Of obliteration at the hands of
an enenmy who possesses nu-
clear weapons of mass destruc-
ton and who might have no
conjunction about using such
weapons If he thought we were
too weak to defend ourselves and
retailiate in kind"
He added:
Our testing program is not
poisoning the atmosphere. So
Wet propagandists have been
spreading that scare for
months, while conveniently neg
lecting to mention their own
secret tests"

6. 0. P. Attitude
On Atom Tests

LAS VEGAS, New, Oct. 10 up.
Senator Estes Kefauver today
denounced as "monstrous nom
sense" what ne called Republic
can reasons for refusing to dis
cuSs an end to hydrogen bomb
testing.
Hitting once more at President
Eisenhower'S last word" on the
bomb issue, the Democratic vice
presidential candidate said Mr..
Eisenhower cannot be permitted
to snuff out discussion of "the
nightmare of nuclear weapons
race" between this Nation and
Russia.
In unusually strong words pre-
pared for a Democratic luncheon
rally here not far from the birth
place of the A-bomb, Senator
Kefauver made it clear the
Democrats intend to keep on
pressing an International H.
bomb curb as a campaign issue.
Political Twist" Charged
The tall Tennessean, on q
coast-to-coast Stumping tour, ac-
cused Republicans of giving a
political twist" to the proposal
of Adlai Stevenson, the Demo-
cratic standard bearer, for a
moratorium on unlimited and
uncontrolled testing of super
bombs"
He said that In President
Franklin D. Roosevelt'S admin
istration it was Martin, Barton
and Fish Republican Congress-
mem who turned their backs on
international cooperation.
"And now. in the days of Adlai
Stevenson. it is Eisenhower,
Dewey. Dulles and Nixon who
would refuse us the right to take
a constructive step in hating the
worlds rush toward death.
mo matter what age they live
in, Republicans never seem to
change" he said.
I'm the name of security they
have tried, through distortion
and hiding behind secrecy, to
mislead the American people on
what is right for us and the
world, and what is feasible from
a military standpoint"
Now, Senator Kefauver said,
the issue has been brought into
the open land it has been left
for decision by the people"
Statement Issued
In connection with his speech,
Senator Kefauver released
statement on nuclear testing by
David L. Hill, atomic physicist
lat Los Alamos, N. Mex, and for
fner head of the Federation Of
american Scientists.
