Bumper Wheal
Crop in Europe
Paris, Sept. 26 VP) Europe
looks forward to a bumper 1949
wheat crop, approaching the
yield of prewar years.
An Associated Press survey
of 14 countries disclosed that
experts estimate the current har
vest will top even last year's
crop, despite long summer
droughts.
Only two eastern European
countries were included in the
survey, because most iron cur
tain countries have made it a
crime to disclose crop estimates.
"Earlier this summer," one
American expert here said, "we
figured this year's crops proba
bly five percent below last
year's. The figures coming in
now make us think that it may
be even better than 1948."
Europe's wheat production in
1948 was 38,800,000 tons. This
was 86.5 percent of the 1934-38
average total. Both totals ex
clude Russia which refuses to
furnish figures.
A break-down by countries
showed the following estimates
in metric tons:
France: An estimated 7,849,
000 tons of wheat, 200,000 more
than last year.
Italy: 6,860,000 tons a gain
of 12 percent.
Britain: Expects about 34 bu
shels per acre for some 1,900,
000 acres bigger yield per acre
but smaller total because of re
duced plantings.
Western Germany: Expects
even larger crop than last year's
which set a postwar record
Belgium: One of biggest har
vests in history.
Portugal: Dropped badly be
cause of long drought.
Stocks Decline
After Advance
New York, Sept. 26 MV-
Stocks lost ground after an early
advance today in a moderately
active market.
Trading was at the rate of 1,-
k100,000 shares for the day. The
total was boosted by opening
sales of several large blocks of
stock, particularly Common
wealth & Southern.
Early gains were in the range
of fractions to around a point
with some pushing forward as
much as 2 points. '
Aircrafts stood out on the top
side and held a substantial por
tion of their rise.
Rails turned backward with
a few exceptions, and steels, mo
tors, oils and chemicals all
slumped slightly.
Gold shares were in the plus
column the better part of the
day but slid away into losses.
Un the higher side were
Douglas Aircraft, Boeing, Texas
Co., General Motors, Interna
tional Nickel and Hudson Mo
tors.
Lower were U.S. Steel, Stude-
. baker, U.S. Rubber, Woolworth
'Montgomery Ward, Eastman Ko
dak, American Woolen, Loew's
and U.S. Gypsum.

Bevin Outlines
British Position
New York, Sept. 26 WV-Brit
ish Foreign Secretary Ernest
Bevin made clear today that Bri
tain would not agree to ban ato
mic weapons until adequate con
trol machinery is set up.
Bevin told the United Nations
assembly his government has
consistently favored the prohibi
tion of atomic weapons but that
Russia had blocked agreement
by refusing to agree to workable
controls.
He said there was nothing
new in the proposals made by
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
Y. Vishinsky last Friday for an
immediate ban on atomic bombs.
Bevin said Vishinsky 's char
ges that the western powers
were to blame for delay were
stupid.
The assembly's steering com
mittee meanwhile voted to put
Russia's big five peace pact pro
posals on the decision schedule.
All the big powers besides Rus
sia and many smaller ones are
expected to oppose the Soviet
proposals in committee debate
on the ground that it lacks sin
cerity.
Bevin spoke after Assembly
President Carlos P. Romulo in
dicated a drive to break the
deadlock on atomic energy con
trol would be pressed in the UN.
"I am a chronic optimist," Ro
mulo told a special news conference.

Counter Damage Suit Filed
In Amusement Device Case
In his answer to the complaint of Jack R. Moore Co., In circuit
court here, E. William Miller, the defendant, asks $10,000 gen
eral damages and $10,000 punitive damage and also alleges that
agreements whereby the defendant was to purchase certain
amusement merchandise are 'usurious with an attempt to charge
defendant interest at a rate
greater than 10 per cent on un-
paid balances and that the agree-
Truman Urges
Pay Increases
Washington, Sept 26 W)
President Truman prodded the
senate today to vote pay raises
for his cabinet and top-ranking
government lieutenants.
In a letter to Vice President
Barkley, Mr. Truman said he
was surprised to hear reports of
opposition to increasing the sal
aries of officials in executive
positions.
"I urge the senate," the presi
dent wrote, "to act favorably
upon this legislation which will
do so much to help me in prop
erly discharging the duties of
my office."
Barkley had the letter read
to the senate at the opening of
the day's session.
The business before the senate
was legislation1 authorizing the
first general pay boost for the
armed services in 40 years. The
senate had agreed to vote at 2
p.m. (PST) and there was every I
indication the measure would be
passed. I
ments are null and void and the
debts represented should revert
to the state of Oregon, accord
ing to the statutes "in such cases
provided."
The answer says that the Jack
R. Moore Co., is a dealer In pin-
ball machines and various other
amusement devices and says
that the defendant already has
made payment to plaintiff of
sums of money due and owing
under the agreements by way of
money, by credit of the return
and transfer of certain per
sonal property of defendant to
plaintiff and by alleged over
payment of interest monies
charged against the defendant
which, the complaint alleges,
"are of usurious nature."
The answer further alleges
the plaintiff has attempted to
make it Impossible for the de
fendant to perform his part of
the agreements by attempting to
gain control of defendant's
smusement routes through Mar
ion, Polk and Linn counties. It
charges that the plaintiff has at
tempted to harass defendant by
repossession actions filed in the
three counties and attempting to
foreclose on defendant s amuse
ment equipment "well knowing
that defendant was not delin
quent in payment of said agree
ments. He further alleges plain
tiff has informed defendant if he
would assign a half interest in his
amusement equipment and route
to one Lonnie Logsden and with
out consideration therefor, that
plaintiff would not attempt to
foreclose on defendant I equipment.
In addition to the $20,000
damages asked, defendant fur
ther asked the court direct the
debts represented by the agree
ments revert , to the state for
benefit of the common school
fund and that plaintiff be "re
quired to make payment thereof
accordingly."
In its complaint the Jack R.
Moore company asked reposses
sion of 19 different devices In
cluding phonographs, shuffle
boards, Bally Hyrolls and others
with $500 damages of alleged
detention.
