TWO-PMCE SYSTEM WILL GET NEW YORK TRIAL TO IlISTKim TE FOOD TO NEEDY AT LOW PRICES SCHEME MAY AW WHEAT, COTTON, INDIRECTLY EXPECT CONGRESS TO ACCEPT AFTER FIC.HT WASHINGTON, Nov. 29 Arranage ments are shaping up for Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace's so called "two-priced system," which Is really a scheme for huge distribu tions of surplus commodities to the needy poor. The scheme may sound visionary It calls for supplying the dietary deficiencies of the needy by selling them farm products at spec Is! low prices. But a practical try out Is already In sight. The fact Is, New York's Mayor Flo reUo H. LsGuardla has become a convert. Some time ago he establish ed a chain of milk depots, where the poor may show certificates of need and purchase milk below the market price. Recently.. Wallace called In the bouncing little mayor, told him about the "two-price system," 'and urged him to use his depots for the sale of other commodities besides milk. After some hesitation, Ia -Guard! a gave In, and. unless there is a hitch, vegetables, fruits and meat will soon be available in New York at poor people's prices. The high quality of La Guard la's administration makes New York the Ideal city for experiment. Other mayors are also being urged to establish distribution systems, and everything Is being done to conciliate the naturally fearful smalt mer chants. Meanwhile, the agriculture department Is having difflcultles'"for an unexpected reason, too much en thusiasm at the treasury. Surgeon General Thomas Parran and Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau. Jr., who was Interested In the scheme of his socially conscious wife, are ardent converts'.

Southbound Transport Blown Off Path After Leaving Medford Port SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 29. (AP) Two men escaped and' five other persons were believed to have drowned when a big transport plane was forced down on the ocean north of San Francisco today, her fuel exhausted by a five and a half hour struggle to find her way through a maze of radio signals. Coast guardsmen hauled Pilot Charles Stead ol Seattle and Isadore R. Edelstein, a passenger, up the 300-foot cliff beneath which the plane was shattered by rough seas, and remarked: "It looks like the others are gone." Pilot Was Veteran Stead, 42-year old veteran of the United Airlines run from Seattle to San Francisco, blamed the disaster on radio reception which "was too good. There were so many signals coming in it was difficult to pick out the right ones." Elaborating on the confusion of radio signals, Stead explained: "We had so much on the radio that we could not get anything." In this confusion he was unable to ptck out his own radio beam to follow it into Oakland. Previous reports had told of a bat tle with cross-winds and head-winds which reportedly reached a velocity of 84 miles an hour, but Stead In sisted "We didn't have any weather at all." Gasoline Exhausted Forced over the ocean In the early morning hours before dawn, Stead dropped flares and saw only huge cliffs towering above the rough wa ter. When his gasoline was gone. he drew up the landing gear and alighted on the water. "There was absolutely no hysteria and everybody was calm," he said. "When it began to get daylight, the others began disappearing one by one. - - 1 . . . Co-pllot' Lloyd Jones of Seattle and two passengers sitting on the tall of the plane were the first to go.

"One of the happiest momenta in my life was seeing tne coaai gunrns mn Kmhlnir down the cliff to US."

Simpson, liberal Repub lican leader In New York, declared today his party must rid Itself of "reactionary influences of the past." Simpson made this statement as the Republican national committee convened to canvass GOP election victories and formulate plans for party work during the next two years. The young, red-moustached Simp son, who managed Thomas E, Dewey's New York gubernatorial campaign, was assured of a seat on the na tional committee when the New York state Republican committee refused yesterday to block his election. Succeeds HI lies He waa accepted by the national committee this morning as the suc cessor to Charles D. Hllles. who re signed. Also accepted for membership on the committee were William P. Knowland of Oakland. Cal., and Mrs. E. L. Moulton, of Albuquerque, N. M. Simpson, regarded as one of the leaders In the liberal wing of the party, told reporters the recent elec tion returns "showed the people have left the president." "But they will turn to the Re publican party for leadership only if they are sure It Is not under the domination of Mr. Hoover, the Lib erty league or some of the reaction ary influences of the past," the New Yorker said. ' v "If. we turn that way toward re action) we might oa well fold up. If, however, we look forward and not backward and choose standard bear ers from the wealth of fine, new forward-looking leaders that recent elections have brought forth we can not mlaa In 1940." Candidates Discussed There was much Informal discus sion among committee members to day of a possible Republican pres idential nominee for 1040. Namea mentioned most frequently were those of Dewey, John W. Brlcker, recently elected governor of Ohio, and Robert Taft, Ohio senator elect. Plainly Jubilant over party gains In congress and state capltols, com mittee members echoed the state ment of Chairman John Hamilton: "Republicans in every part of the country appear to be united in the thought we should push ahead. . . . On to 1040 Is the slogan." There was some division of senti ment in the committee as to Just how far Republicans should go along with an tl-Roosevelt Democrats In the next session of congress. The consensus, however, appeared to favor a continuation of such a coalition, which shelved the court and government reorganisation bills In the last congress.

She came to the Rogue river valley In the summers of 1016, '1? and '10 and finally settled here permanently tn 1030. She at o'nee allied herself with health Interests here. Later, tha Jackson County Public Health assoc iation was formed, and Miss Carlton was persuaded to take the leadership. Under her direction, tha entire coun ty was organized. She helped es tablish the county unit and county board of control, and since then tha unit has Increased in scope until now It includes a full time health officer... sanitary engineer, secretary and five nurses.
