CP The Western Allies kept trainloid of 198 Germana expelled from Communist Polish territory out of Western Germany Monday. The Allied high commission has Mid It has infirmation that Poland intends to dump 250,000 .expellees in Western Germany. ' The Western Allies have voweJ to prevent the forced exodus, ex cept for 23,000 expellees who have West German relatives who ess help care for them. West German officials have in formed the Western Allies they will be unable to cope with the ex pected flood of refugees. Th Allied authorities believe Communist Poland has a two-fold objective: to complicate th West German economy, already bur dened with 9,000,000 refugees and expellees and 2,000.000 unemploy ed; to cut the ground from any fu ture German claims on territory esst of the Oder-Neisse line based on the argument that the popula tion is largely German. Skier Event Score On Accidentally Broken Legs SEATTLE, March . VP) Doug Devin is turning out to be something of a trial to his fsther, Mayor William F. Devin. i Mayor Devin, charged with the safety of Seattle's 500,000 persons, a former traffic judge, and ac knowledged expert among safety officials of the nstion, visited his (on in the hospital Monday again. Young Devin broke his leg two years ago in a skiing accident at Stevens pass. Saturday he repeat ed the mishap, only this time It wss the left leg and worse. "I'm a little embarrased," mur mured the 22-year-old skier, "that it happened at all. I'm more em barrased that it happened again." Even Mayor Devin found his concern for his son mingled with some amusement. "I feel sorry for the kid." said the mayor. "The first thing he said waa: 'Are you mad at me?' ' Egg Business White Elephant For Uncle Sam; He Wants To Discard It By PETER EDSON MIA WuklafUa CMcmrtcH WASHINGTON (NEA The subject for today will be eggs, too The government has about 73,000,000 pounds of same stored in t The government ha sabout 71,000,000 pounds of same stored in a dosen states in the midwest. That's the equivalent of 2H.000.000 doien egga in the shell. Only about a tenth of them are In the famous csve nesr Atchison, Kan., which has received so much publicity. But wherever they are, the government would like to get rid of them. To this end the government re cently offered surplus dried and froien eggs for sale for export for 40 cents a pound, at some 7 storsge points. There are few takers. The dried eggs cost the government from $1 00 to 11.20 a pound. But since one pound of dried eggs is equsl to three dozen shell eggs, there's a lot of food value for the money. For school lunch programs, Bu reau of Indian affairs and federal agencies, the government is offer ing the dried eggs for free, if they 'll psy transportation costs.

It waa through the famous SteagaU amendment to the 1942 farm bill, it specified, that, to encourage the production of much-needed foods, their prices should be supported by government purcnase at so per cent of parity. Thia waa for the duration olua two Tears. ' which meant through the calendar year IMS. The Hope-Aiken bill continued this support through 194. The Gore-Anderson farm bill of IMS put eggs on a permissive list, which meant they could be sup ported at any level from zero to M percent of parity. Secretary of Agriculture Charles F. Brannan made the administrative decision to support the price of eggs at M percent of parity. What the secretary was shooting for waa to keep the farm price of eggs at around 47 cents a dozen. But since thia resulted in the pro- oucuod H loo many egg", on ibu. 1, 1950 the secretary lowered aup ports to shoot at a farm price level ot Jfi cents a aoien. This cut of over 20 percent in support prices brought a loud squswk from the egg trade, but so far it hasnt cut down egg pro duction much. One principal rea son is thst in this year'a open winter, the hens hsve been laying more than usual. But the hope is thst ultimately the lowered sup port price will reduce production closer to demand levels. Of course the government does p't. buy the eggs themselves. It buys only dried eggs, psying the I egg aryera a price mat win enaoic them to buy eggs from the term ers at the desired levels. Grading la Barrier , The fact is not generally recog nized, but the government has bought no eggs in the ' populous east, nor on the west roast. It has not been necessary. There is an egg shortage in these areas, not a. surplus, and it ia this shortage which is blamed for high egg pri ces in city markets. One question frequently asked is why the surplus eggs from the midwest couldn't be shipped east to relieve the shortage and break the high prices? The principsl reason given I s thst the midwest term or nest eggs are ungraded and too small for city market acceptance. Only about one or two eggs out of a doien would be accepted by the egg trade. And the cost of sorting, grading and transporting to city markets is too high to yield any profit. Egg men ssy It may take generation to get farmers' wives into the habit of sorting and grad ing their egga ao that they'll com pete with the product of the egg "factories' which cater to city markets. - Ungraded nest eggs are. haw ever, cheaper and therefore more suitable for breaking and separat ing for freezing, or for drying. But the normal commercial out leta for freien or dried eggs is limited. Coal Strike End Recalls Workers To Industries News-Review want ads bring results. Phone 100.
