Instead of inveighing against

more real threats in America
through growth of private monop

government power through ap

The generally recognized fact
remains, however, that monopoly
or control of any field of business

The Statesman's cumulative to

that that (150,470) quoted by the
cashier's office at the fairgrounds
shortly before midnight Friday.
The difference may lie in the
fact that at least the first four
days' totals used in The States

paid daily admissions, while those

Beef Up 19 Ceata
WASHINGTON, Sept 6-0F-
OPA today ordered new butcher
shop ceilings for jneats into effect
next Tuesday, jumping some of
the best cuts as much as ten cents
a pound above June 30 prices and
loin lamp chops 16 cents.
Jroric increases generally were
smaller, and prices were rolled all
the way back to the eld ceiling
level for all veaL several impor
tant pork cuts, and the . cheaper
grades of beef.
Lsrnry' Cuts Higher
This foUowed OPA's policy of
putting the bulk of the increase
on the "luxury" cuts while hold
ing tighter ceilings on meats usu
ally found on the tables of low-
income families.
Sausage, ham, pork shoulders.
rnucxies ana pigs feet were
squeezed down to June 30 prices.
So were the choice and good
grades of beef short ribs and stew
meat and virtually all the "B
and "C" grades of beefs.
The average increase, therefore.
was three and three - quarters

Address
STUTTGART, Sept 6-OIVThe
three German minister presidents
of the American zone states agreed
today that Secretary of Stat
Byrnes' speech? "will warm the
hearts ' of their . defeated people
while sources close to diplomatic
policy viewed it as drawing the
political battle! ine with Soviet
policy "beyond the Oder."
There was no immediate Rus
sian reaction. Although radio sta
tions in the Russian zone did not
carry the speech as it was deliv
ered, a, spokesman for the Soviet
news bureau in Berlin said it in
tended to report the address "be
cause It is of such great impor
tance."
In Paris, French officials ex
pressed sharp disappointment and
criticized Byrnes, charging 'that
his speech was: t
"An open bid for popularity
with the Germans, and can only
lead to competition; in this re
spect, with Russia."
(In London, the British govern
ment openly concerned at the
enormous cost of rehabilitating
Germany, studied Byrnes' speech
with apparent satisfaction. British
newspapers reported the speech
at length under banner headlines
(In Rome there was no immedi
ate official reaction, but Italian
newspapers gave the American
secretary's speech smash play.)
Although there was no editorial
comment In the Berlin newspa
pers, prominent play was given
Byrnes speech.
