TWO NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGON MONDAY. AUGUST 14, 1948 Ugly Facts of Inflation Brush-Off May Haunt Republican Campaign By PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON If President Truman had any previous doubts about which was the wont Congress, they should all bt font by now. For th bruih-olf which the Republican leadership haa given to hit anti-Inflation proposal! waa really of hurrlcana proportions. It swept everything he laid on the table right Into the waste-baskets. If by 10 doing the congressmen think they can go home leaving clean desks and clear consciences behind them, they may be head ed for unpleasant surprises. The facts and figures which admini stration leaders finally got to gether for presentation to Con gress may rise like ghosts out of the scrapheaps Into which they were swept, to haunt the homing congressmen In the months and years ahead. President Truman pointed out In his press conference state ment that Senate and House Ag riculture Committees never even met to see if there was anything they might do to Increase food supplies or cut down prices to the consumer. House Ways and Means and Senate Finance Committees, which handle tax matters, did not meet to consider President Truman'a suggestions for the re turn of excess corporations prof Its taxes. The House Banking and Cur rency Committee went through the motion of holding hearings on the proposed antl-lnflatlon bill. But this committee under Chairman Jesse Wolcott of Mlchl- ?an refused to receive testimony rom Secretary of Agriculture Brannan, Secretary of Com merce Sawyer, Secretary of In terior Krug. Wolcott, completely dominat ing his committee, went ahead In hla own way to Introduce his own version of a credit-control bill. It may do some good over the long haul. But don't expect to take a copy home, hand It to your wife and expect that she will ever buy with it any more groceries for any less money. On the other side of the Cap itol, Chairman Charles W.

Paper flatlon, but In Tobey'a effort to save me lan-eiiender-wagner housing bill. From Brannan the Tobey com mittee heard that further In creases In food prices particu larly meat prices which have al ready more than doubled In the last two years are due this year. The time to have started holding meat prices In line was six months ago, he said. From Sawyer the committee heard that the problem confront ing the country was of the ut most seriousness. It cannot be met by Increased production, which la already at capacity lev els. What is needed, said Sawyer, is iimued control to noia aonor mal factors of demand In check, and orloritlea to channel scarce goods to essential production. Danger f Inploslen from Keyserllnz the commit tee heard that inflation Is now working hardship on millions of families, industrial Drices are be ing pushed to such heights that goods cannot be disposed of. There Is danger of an economic explosion. The race upward be tween prices and wages Is un settling all business conditions. All such splraling. booms have In the past ended In busts. To those consressmen anil others who maintain that this is lust a lot of scare stuff, the best answer was given by Secre tary of Agriculture Brannan, who cited what had happened to potatoes. In November. 1946. Seoretarv of Agriculture Clinton Anderson Money Judgments Asked in 4 Suits Austin J. Ellis Jr. and Jane 1 Doe Ellis, hit wife, and Donald D. and Jane Doe Hlggenbothem, I his wife, have been named in i two money action suits filed in Circuit Court. John C. Reese and Clen Beach. doing business aa West Side Gro cery, ask for a Judgment for $.390 allegedly advanced to the plain tiff July 13, 1948, and for $282.17 aa the balance alleged due for goods, wares and merchandise sold the plaintiff between Oct. 4, 1947, and July 31, 1948. In the second action. Ed A. I Radlgan asks for a Judgment for i $258.50 for goods, wares, and merchandise allegedly sold to de fendant from Dec. 30, 1947, plus a claim of C. M. McDermott for wrote Congress that under the then-existlns Drice-sunrjori law. 20 million bushels of potatoes would be grown for which there would be no market. Anderson asked that the law be changed so that the government wouldn't nave to buy them up and destroy them. Congress paid no aft'ention. took no action. The result was that In 1946 and 1947 the potato pnc support program cost the government $130,000,000. It may cost another $20,000,000 this year.

It Is hard to criticise the efforts of people In the sports world be cause of the time and labor they put out, even though this column criticises for a better show for fans. The greatest drawback Is that you make enemies. These enemies, however, must be plac ed below the Idea of the sport. With this in mind, and only this In mind, does Bobbin' 'Round ever criticise. A personal Invitation. . . One of the most under-publicized box ing cards of the season will be held at the Roseburg Armory to morrow night Now here Is a card worth your money. Thirty fast and furioua rounds of rate number one boxer's at prices that are right: $1.80 for ring side, $1.20 general admission and .75c for kids. In the main event Georgle O' Rourke of Frisco, 185 pound heavyweight, will meet Leo Tal bot of Portland. In his last ap pearance at Roseburg, Talbot de cisioned Gordon McKay of Klam ath Falls and put on the kind of show fana like clever boxing with left hook that stuns. Bucky O'Conner, Roseburg, 137 lbs., meets Sammy Benton, 138 lbs., of Portland. In his last twenty-four fights, O'Conner has lost but four and looms as South ern Oregon's best welterweight Told you so ! Last Thursday, August 5th, Bobbin' 'Round said, "Sutherlin will win league hon ors." If you have noticed they play in the District playoffa In Cottage Grove. What else can be said ! FOOTBALL SHOES! Who needs football shoes at the school price of $9.95 ? What about foot, balls at the school price of $7.50 to $20 f This football season stands will not be filled to see you "warm the bench" because of faulty shoes. No Sir! You need sturdy shoes to twist and turn In, like the ones at Umpqua Valley Hardware, Sports Dept Also be wise by shopping early for gym trunks, shirts and shoes at your local sports center, UMPQUA VALLEY HARDWARE, 202 N. Jackson. Phone 73. will be on tha market soon.
