WASHINGTON, June 4-W)-The supreme court today upheld the

to its slogan of underselling by six
per cent and Gimbel's replies with
its "nobody but nobody undersells
Gimbers." The result has been a
buying orgy in the metropolis.
Nominally the price cutting
started when Macy's, always a
holdout against fair trade laws,
seized on the supreme court, de
cision exempting non-signers from
fair-trade pricing, and cut six per
cent on 6,000 fair-trade items.
Another motive doubtless was in
mind, and that was to reduce in
ventories. The bulge in stocks
has extended from manufacturers
to distributors and retailers. Pre
viously the price slashing had
started on TV and radio sets to
lower inventories which' two
months ago were 200 per cent of
those a year ago. in iaci me gen

flurry of forward buying set . off

The high court, in a decision
written by Chief Justice Vinson,
ruled that they were . "properly
and constitutionally convictedf in
New York of conspiring; to teach
and advocate the overthrow of the
government by force and violence,
in violation of the Smith act. j .
The red leaders involved are
Eugene Dennis, general j secretary

called "American politburo": Ben

Robert G. Thompson,' John Gates,
John B. Williamson, Carl Winter,
Gus Hall, Jacob Stachel, Henry
Winston and Irving Potash.
. All but Thompson were sen
tenced in October, 1949, at the end
of their turbulent New York trial,

Negotiation
PossiMities in
Iran Improve
TEHRAN, Iran, June 4-WVThe
chances for amicable negotiations
in Iran's explosive oil dispute with
Britain were better today despite
a strange mixup in President Tru
man's letters to the premiers of
the two nations.
There were strong indications
that Premier Mohammed Mossa
degh was pleased to get the prom
ise yesterday from the British-
owned Anglo-Iranian Oil company
(AIOC) to send a delegation from
London to undertake "full and
frank discussions."
One reason, it was reported, is
that the premier is worried over
Iran's finances, since his oil royal
ties from the billion dollar com
pany have been cut off. He has
declined to discuss the question of
receiving advance payments on
prospective profits because that
would imply the continued exist
ence of AIOC, a company which
the nationalization law declares is
abolished.

Lists on Beef
Due June 18
WASHINGTON, June 4 -MP)-Price
Director Michael V. DiSalle
said today he plans to put in a
community-by-community pricin?
program on 15 ar 20 food items
within 20 days. The program will
follow the pattern of the wartime
Office of Price Administration
(OPA). i L
iNo rationing of any of the
items, which will be processed
foods, is contemplated in the pro
gram, DiSalle said. , j.
The pricing program will take
into effect the relative nearness
of a community to the source of
processed foods. j
Each local district of the Office
of Price Stabilization will make
up a local list of food prices based
on a percentage markup permit
ted under national OPS regula
tions. , ; - I -No
Hints Given 1
DiSalle gave no hint as to the
items to which this type of com
munity - by - community pricing
will apply. j
He outlined his program to the
United labor policy committee, an
organization of labor union lead
ers formed to coordinate iheir ac
tivities in connection with th
stabilization program and in other
fields.
The group has been critical of
price controls on the ground they
have failed to check inflation, j
Prices to Vary l
The government official said
prices would have to vary by com
munities across the country be
cause products could be obtained
cheaper in some areas than in
others. I
That was the way OPA control
led prices during World War II,
instead of having a nation-wide
ceiling. i
. DiSalle told newsmen that ceil
ing prices on beef wilt be listed
in butcher shops beginning June
18 as the first move in his figh.
to hold down food costs. He rote
that food makes up at least 34
per cent of the family budget in
the federal cost-of-living Index.
DiSalle indicated that veal
would be another of he meat
items to be placed under ceiling
lists, but said pork is now selling
below parity prices. U
Under the 1950 defense produc
tion act, farm products are ex
empt from ceilings if they are
selling below parity or below pre
Korean war levels.
: DiSalle told reporters that the
cost of living is "pretty close to
being stabilized right now."

4-Lane E-Sighway North
Of Salem, Said j (Distant
Construction of a four-lane highway- all the'way from Salem to
New Era is at least two or three years away from beginning, and a
delay in selling new highway bonds could postpone it further, State
Highway Engineer R. H. Baldock asserted Monday. ' ,
Baldock said a survey -from the Hayesville school, five miles north
of Salem, to the junction of the Pacific and Tualatin highways, has
Deen approved but tms work will
require more than a year. This
would be followed by purchase of
right-of-way before construction
operations could begin. .
The state highway engineer also
stressed that delay in selling the
$42,000,000 of highway bonds ap
proved by the last legislature
might retard the four-lane project
indefinitely. Charles E. Wilson,
U. S. defense ' mobilization head,
recently - requested that states,
counties and cities desiring to bor
row $1,000,000 or more obtain
government clearance.
Gov. Douglas McKay announced
Monday he. had written a letter
to Wilson urging that sale of the
Oregon highway bonds be permit
ted. The governor pointed out that
construction of Oregon roads was
essential to adequate defense and
there should, be no delay in actual
road building operations.
"I am of the opinion the gov
ernment will permit the sale of
these bonds when Washington of
ficials realize the necessity , for
more and better highways in Ore
gon in event of war," Governor
McKay sald.,., - ..........
Baldock said he might confer,
while in Washington next week,
with federal officials in connec
tion with the bond program, pro
vided such : action received . ap
proval of the state highway com
mission, t. ;
v "We are outlining our expanded
highway construction - .program,"
Baldock continued, "and it is im
portant that we determine whether
revenues from sale of the bonds
will be available."
" Virtually aU city and county of
