by Mr.. Mitchell, who demanded
$4,000 to put through such a
change with the city council.
The Wahrhaftigs complained
to New York Buildings Com
missioner Harold Birns about
the bride demand and he di-
rected them to Mr.. Hogan's
office last Monday.
The district attorney directed
the brothers to take the money
to the Midtown Hotel and meet
a go-between who would &C
cept the bride. Mr.. DeMasi
was arrested as he came out
of a hotel room with $4,000
on him.
John Flanagan, Newburgh
planning board chairman, said
the board considered the pro-
posed coming change last week
and that a man named De
Mast sat in on the session.
Mr.. Flanagan said the board
approved the proposal in prin-
ciple, but wanted a further in
vestigation to be sure that the
area, one of the better residen-
tial districts, would not be ad-
versely affected.
Council Meeting Set
The Newburgh City Council
had scheduled a meeting for
yesterday afternoon to con-
slider the rezoning matter
even as detectives were en- route
to Newburgh for Mr.. Mitchell.
For some unexplained rea-
son, the councilmen did not
show up and Mayor William d.
Ryan was informed the meet
ing would be today.
On June 20. 1861, Mr.. Mitch
ell announced a 13-point set
of short-lived welfare regula-
tons that aroused a national
controversy.
Among the rules he set for
Newburgh, a city of $1,000.
were those that would cut off
relief payments ID to mothers
of illegitimate children If they
continued to bear children out
of wedlock, and (2) to able
bodied men refusing to work.
State officials from Gov. Mel
son A. Rockefeller on down
lined up against Mr.. Mitchell's
program. However. the city
manager drew support from,
among others. Senator Barry
Goldwater, Republican Of Ari-
Zona. a leader Of conservative
opinion. Mr.. Mitchell has de-
scribed himself as Republic
can and conservative in my
thinking"
Despite Mr.. Mitchell's pro-
gram. relief costs in Newburgh
continued TO rise. Last year
the New York State Supreme
Court ruled all but one Of the
l3 points illegal.
Much OF Newburgh's relief
problem centered around an in
flux of migratory Negroes from
the South. In 1850, two-thirds
OF its welfare recipients were
white. Ten years later more
than two-thirds we're Negro,
and the welfare budget had
grown larger than the COM
bined police and fire depart
ment budgets.
Mr.. Mitchell was born In
Chevy Chase on March rs.
1922. His father, the late Ros-
sci Mitchell. was an architect
and builder In the Washington
area. A graduate OF Maryland
schools. he has a bachelor Of
science degree from the Uni
versity Of Maryland.
Mr.. Mitchell worked for the
War Production Board. the Ma
tional Security Agency and the
Bureau Of Standards before en-
tering the city management
field.

they can only be done with the
help of the government.
"One of the most important
areas in which farmers must have
the assistance of government is, in
solving of the problem of con-
tinuing over-p u t n," the
Grange says.
The Grange adds, however, that
farm programs should volve
government participation to tn e
minimum extent" and that pro
ducers should be perm lit d a
major voice in. the development
and administration of farm pro-
grams"
The American farmer asks no
unusal favors and seeks no special
privilege, the Grange says, blu t
"justifiably wants to be a full
fledged American citizen with the
rights, duties, opportunities and
rewards which are customarily ac-
corded to non-farm members of
our society,""
The Grange warns against 'try-
ing to solve the farm problem by
pushing people off the land and
onto relief rolls" in large cities.
Consideration, it says, must be
given to training, both for de-
veloping more efficient farm
operators and to qualify others for
non-farm employment.
In other actions the delegates
view the trend toward centraliza-
tion of governmental authority and
responsibility" as a matter of deep
concern ito all people who believe
in our constitutional form of
government" Individuals, local
and state governments, they said,
have surrendered a disturbing
portion of their obligations of self
government to the Federal govern
ment."
Declaring that economy in
government is imperative, the
Grange takes a stand in opposition
to any tax reduction "while the
budget is out of balance" 1t also
calls for government withdrawal
from businesses that can feasibly
be operated by private enterprise. .
The Grange re-affirms support
of Federal aid to education sin
areas of lower wealth." but insists
the control of it's use must remain
in the hands of local and state
authorities with ''use for any pub
lie education purpose each state
deems necessary to meet specific
needs"
To protect public health, tn e
Grange calls for legislation which
would make it unlawful to dis
pense any drug until it's reliability
has been thoroughly tested and
approved by the Food and Drug
Administration.

Living Costs Show
Slight October Drop

1l957-1959 average. This means
that the dollar, in purchasing
power. is worth only 81 cents,
compared to that base period.
The last decline in the index
occurred in December, 1861.
In spite of the 90 per cent
decline in meat prices in Oc-
tober, the housewife is still
paying higher prices than a
year ago, Mr.. Chase said.
He predicted that meat
prices and other food prices
win drop somewhat in Novem-
Der. Meat prices will stay
above last years levels for a
number of months due pri-
rmarily to favorable prices of
livestock feed.
On the income side of the
family budget the average
weekly take-home pay for fac
tory production workers
dropped in October from the
record it set in September. For
the worker with three de-
pendents, it was 1856, a de-
cline of nearly so cents from
September, but still $1.65 above
the previous October.

It is hard to see, therefore,
how an understanding can be

this stage has scaled down its

reported today. 1t was only a
slight drop Of i per cent. how
ever, and prices were still 1.S

The drop in the consumer

to lower meat prices. This was
a reaction to the sharp advance
in meat prices in September
following q withholding of live
stock from the market by Mid
western farmers, according to
Arnold Chase, chief Of the price

Moving Day for l,l5o Birds
Puts D. c. Zoo in a FIutter
BY JERRY O'LEARY, Jr.
star staff Writer

It's moving day for the 1,l50
birds at the Washington Zoo.
The birds, from the rare
monkey eating eagle to the
pink plumaged flamingoes. are
being sent elsewhere while the
birdhouse is renovated.
Most of the birds will be
boarded out at other ZOOS dur
ing the reconstruction of their
home here. The shipment of
birds is part of the 10-year-
plan for making over the entire
face of the National zoologi-
cal Park.
DR.. Theodore Reed, director
of the Zoo. and his assistant,
j. Lear Grimmer, explained
that the bird movement may
also make it possible for the
Zoo to make a few trades.
In cases where Washington
has a male member of one ge-
nus and another zoo has a fe1
male of the same type, it may
be that the move will be per-
manent.
Among those birds leaving
Washington until the $1,350,00O
renovation of the birdhouse is
completed are the Zoos cele-
brated penguin colony. Mr..
Grimmer said four king pen
gums and the one remaining
Adele penguin have been sent
to st. Louis for safekeeping by
Marion Perkins of television
fame. Mr.. Perkins was the di-
rector of Chicago's Lincoln
Park Zoo when the Zoo Parade
program was begun and now
has taken over at st. Louis.

planned, because that zoo has
