Wheat Demand Exceeds Supply Chicago, Dec. 21 (U.BThe government acreage report In terpreted bullishly by grainmen prompted a five-cent jump in rye futures on the board of trade today. Oats moved un evenly, and other grains were dull but firm. Rye finished the day up A to 5 cents a bushel; wheat unchang ed to up ; corn unchanged; oats up 1 to 114, and barley unchanged. Grain circles regarded the rye acreage at 3,721,000 acres com pared with this year's 4,476,000 and the 10-year average of 6, 291,000 as distinctly bullish and a short-covering movement im mediately reversed the down turn of yesterday. The winter wheat report gen erally was in line with trade expectations with acreage stand ing at 51,940.000 or 1,800,000 acres larger than last season. Production was estimated at 750,739,000 bushels against 823,177.000 produced this year. Demand for wheat for deficient countries was expected to ex ceed supply by millions of bushels. Grainmen noted that France bought an undisclosed quantity of U.S. wheat for shipment in January today. Motors Strike Deadlocked (Bt t-lie AffBvClnlfrt Pr.sO The lengthy wage controver y between General Motors and the CIO united auto workers union appeared headed for an other showdown today, in the wake of President Truman's de cision that company financial records are relevant in wage disputes. Top ranking officials of the corporation and the union, in Washington for hearings by the government fact-finding board studying the nation's major la bor problem, prepared to con fer in an attempt to agree on a basis for resumption of collect ive bargaining on strike issues. Some 200,000 GM employes have been Idle for one month, fol lowing a strike In support of the union's demand for a 30 percent wage rate increase. The GM panel was to resume hearings late today, having re cessed to study Mr. Truman's statement, which said that fact finding boards Investigating la bor disputes "should unques tionably have Ihe right to ex amine the employer's books." Later Mr. Truman told a news conference that boards also hould have power to examine a labor union's books. The authority of the fact finding boards to consider prof Its and prices in connection with wage increase demands had slowed the progress of the two panels studying wage disputes the General Motors strike and In the oil industry's wage con troversy.

Tire Rationing Oil January 1 Washington, Dec. 21 U.fi-Tiie rationing will end at 12:01 a.m. January 1, the OPA announced last night. This will leave only sugar on the rationing list. Tire slocks were frozen De cember 8, 1941, and rationing began January 5, 1942. Under the program 57,000,000 new passenger car tires norm ally a 20 months' replacement supply kept almost 24,000,000 passenger cars rolling for four war years. OPA said that holders of tire purchase certificates will have 11 days to turn in their certifi cates to dealers. This will enable dealers to supply them before rationing ends. After December 21 no addi tional certificates will be issued except in emergency cases. OPA tire rationing panels will stay on the job, however, until Janu ary 1 to handle emergency needs of applicants who cannot wait until then for new tires. Passenger tire production this quarter reached 11,000,000. CPA and OPA had agreed that ra tioning could be lifted when it reached that level. CPA Chief John D. Small estimated that 66,000,000 passenger tires will bo needed in 1946. CPA will continue to restrict spare tires for new cars, as well as white sidewall tires and tires for export to assure motorists the maximum number of re placements. The OPA will con tinue to control prices.

Holmes (R. Wash.) charged to day in a letter to Secretary of Commerce Wallace, The agriculture department set a quota of 1,125,700 bushels of this year'j apple crop that could be exported by firms which previously have exported apples to foreign countries. Li censes were issued by the old foreign economic administra tions whose duties have been transferred to the commerce de partment. "I am alarmed over the Infor mation which has come to me indicating these licenses have been inequitably distributed," Holmes wrote. "The information is to the effect that one firm ob tained a license for approximate ly 400,000 bushels. Added to this situation is the startling fact that the firm never had any history in fruit export. In fact, they have been exporters of el ectrical equipment and appli ances. "Such mal-dislribution with apparent disregard to the firm's history is depriving old line concerns not only of export li censes but even it granted a li cense, of an allocation that would permit them practically no business." The representative said that Washington state firms were prevented from exporting ap ples. Holmes told Wallace the situation probably would be taken before a house committee for investigation of food short ages. Fad Finding Rules Defined Washington, Dec. 21 W) The administration laid down spe cific rules and policies today giving the government fact finding boards broad authority to recommend wage increases which may or may not result in price increases. At the same time, the boards were cautioned that, in propos ing any wage increases, any in dividual fact finding panel must "satisfy itself" that employers could or could not absorb the additional cost at prevailing prices. In reaching ils decision, the "panel must necessarily inquire into the issue of the employer's ability to pay," the fact find ers were told. However, the policy statement pointed out, "ability to pay is a limitation on and does not necessarily constitute a measure of the amount of fair increases." Shortly after the statement was issued by Secretary of La bor Schwellenbach, the oil wage fact finding board an nounced its adjournment until January 7 at the request of several of the oil companies in volved. The recess was taken to al low the companies and the CIO oil workers' union to resume collective bargaining, on a plant-by-plant basis, over the 30 percent wage increase de manded by the union. Attorneys for Socony-Vacuum, Standard Oil of Ohio, and the Atlantic Refining company, said they would use the time to bargain with the union and that in some cases the negotiations already were underway.

The One Man War On Petrillo Ann Arbor, Mich., Dec. 21 (U.m Dr. Joseph Maddy, director of the national music camp at Interlochen, Mich., said today that he intends to wage a one man war against James Caesar Petrillo, president of the Amer ican Federation of Musicians (AFL) to retain his membership in the union. Formal charges have been filed that Dr. Maddy's work at Interlochen is "detrimental" to the union. He has been ordered to appear before the executive board in Chicago January IS to show cause why he should not be expelled. The director said the union has no jurisdiction over his ac tivities at Interlochen. "I've been a member of the union for "37 years, longer than Petrillo has." Dr. Maddy ex claimed. "The union has no right under its own constitu tions and bylaws to prevent me from teaching at Interlochen.

Many thought that the gener alissimo, following protocol in such matters, would await the American general at his offi cial residence inside of this walled city, soon to resume its status of the peacetime capital of China. Instead, two minutes after General Marshall stepped from his glistening C-54 plane, after a half hour flight from Shang hai, a large black sedan pulled onto the field and Chiang, im pressive in his undecorated, long olive green cape, emerged from the car. Marshall, in uniform and wearing the five stars of his rank, saw the Chinese leader at once and they strode toward each other, smiling. They sa luted, then clasped hands warmly. "Tell him I am deeply hon ored," Marshall said to Chiang's personal chief of staff. Gen. Shang Chen, acting interpreter. Chiang's reply was: "I wel come you to Nanking." Marshall left Shanghai this morning. His plane was fol lowed by one bearing 30 cor respondents and photographers.

The Investigators also found propaganda books, maps and charts among text books used by sixth grade classes. The report from Shikoku said that the investigators witnessed students in military formations directed by a Japanese in army uniform. The report did not say whether the instructor was tak en into custody.

The equipment has been des troyed and further searches are continuing, the report said. Taxi Hold Up tuonnmieq irom page I) it turned east to North Com mercial, then north to Gaines and stopped. The robber or dered Colvin to stop the cab on Gaines at the alley between Front and Commercial. He turned on the dome light, reached across the front seat and took the ignition key. "You stay in this cab," he told Colvin. Colvin told police the pair got out and went to the waiting coupe and he saw them get in with the driver, apparently a man. The coupe went north on Commercial and Colvin went to the Terminal Ice & Cold Stor age plant where he called po lice headquarters. The cab driver said the man appeared to be about 20 years old, wore sailor trousers, brown coat and hat. The gun, a blue steel automatic, was a .38, he thought. The woman was 17 or 18, wore a dark blue coat and blue slacks, and a white bandada over her hair. She was cool, said Colvin, the man nervous with the gun. They seemed to be familiar with the run of the streets. About $27 was taken from Colvin. In the first robbery, reported Thursday, the victim was Neil Anderson, also a driver for Sa lem Taxi Service, who lost about the same amount as Col vin. The cab was taken by the two men, but later found by another cab driver, Frank Snook, at Church and Center. The two men, who appeared to be around 30 and 35 years old, were picked up in front of the Senator hotel at 12:30 a.m. and the hold-up occurred on Fourth, near Locust.
