Turkey prices down two to seven cents a pound in most re tail stores compared with last week, but up a few cents from Thanksgiving time. 2. Beef cuts unchanged to two cents a pound higher than last weekend, pork and lamb un changed to six cents higher, but chickens slightly lower. 3. Eggs off three to as much as 19 cents a dozen the sharper re ductions in those marketing centers which were slower to come down last week when egg prices started their plunge from record or near rcortl peaks. 4. Th6ose big oranges for the youngsters' Christmas stockings lower than last week, along with western apples, iceberg lettuce, and onions but cranberries, large grapefruit, beets, good celery ana spinach slightly higher, and nuts about the same as at Thanks giving. 5. And bread, shortening, cook ing oils and a few canned fruits, vegetables and meats up a cent or two. Prit Fri's Effect Eyed Spokesmen tor several large food manufacturers, wholesalers and retail chains sahl it was still too early to determine how the Economic Slabiliatinn agency's price freeze call on Tuesday will apply to a host of increases on food products since the base date of December 1. They pointed out that the de fense production act already pro vides that no price controls can be slapped on farm prmlucts which are selling below oarity (the le gally fixed price deemed equally fair to farmers and those who buy their products). And only a few meats, cottonseed oil and rice were above parity when the latest gov ernment report on farm prices was issued last month. However, the freeze formula asks distrinutnrs to hold their gross margins to last June's figures,' and this should tend to restrict advances at the wholesale and re tail levels. The Agrirulliire department headlined turkeys and cranberries on this week's list of most-plenti ful foods for thrifty buying. Others: honey and peanut butter for Christ mas cookies; cheese, potato chips and pop corn for snacks; apples, oranges, grapefruit, pork, chicken, mtaloes, onions, carrots and cab age.

Until a week ago, she hadn't been able to say a wortl in 12 years. On new year's day 1939, Geor gette t;en an active fifth grade pupil in nearby Hayward, fell vic tim of sleeping sickness. For three weeks she slept. When she awoke, she was paralyzed. Her eyes open, but unable to move a muscle, she lay until six months ago. when her mother and father brought her to University of California's Langley poller clinic. Neuropathology therapists fin ally brought a flutter of movement to Georgette's dormant muscles. She gradually learned to move her arms, her legs. She learned to walk a little. But she didn't speak a word until a week ago. Then she suddenly cried "ouch" as a doctor worked over her muscles. Then the words, long dammed up. came tumbling out in a tor rent. It was Mrs. Umbson, not Geor gette, who was speechless that day. "Hello, mother." Georgette said. her eyes twinkling, "I want a plaid skirt, like the other girls wear, for Christmas." When Mrs. Umbson coulll find her voice she exclaimed: "What a Christmas this is going to be thank God!." Davidson Will Resign Interior Post, Report WASHINGTON ' (At Friends of C.

In Moscow east Berlin, Prague, Solia, Bucharest, Budapest and Warsaw, th Communist press chorused praise of the aman in the Kremlim in phrases like these: "Greatest scientist of our time." "Leader of the world peace camp." "Defender of the worker." "Great genius Stalin."

Moscow's press reacted true to form. Pravda and Izvcstia printed the same editorial, entitled: "all conquerin? force of the ideas of Lenin-Stalin." Stalin had one gift from western Berlin to mull over. An organiza tion called "the fighting group against inhumanity" wrote that they wanted to remind him of the German prisoners of war still in the Soviet union. They sent him a wreath made of barbed wire.
