Fresh Fruit & Vegetable associa
tion today.
Most of the Increase In prices
were caused by ttie necessity of
equalizing the farmer's income
with other industries, and of en
couraging increased production,
he said. High wages and scarcity
of labor have also contributed,
he added.
The food price chief assured
housewives that 1945 ceiling
prices for fresh fruit and vege
tables will be no higher than last
year, and probably will be re
vised downward. He predicted
that nearly all fruits and vege
tables not now under price con
trol will be soon.

Wall Street
New York, Jan. 24 U.PJ Re
newed Interest in railroad shares
lifted the general list of stocks
fractions to around a point today
after a small early decline. Trad'
lng was light.
Wall Street viewed the pickup
in demand for railroad stocks as
an indication that recent heavy
selling in that group may have
been overdone. The undertone of
the market, moreover, in the
five previous sessions of decline
had been such that any concen
trated buying in any group of
leaders would have provided the
necessary stimulus for a fair re
covery, analysts said:

ACCIDENT DEATHS
ABOVE WAR TOLL
Chicago (U.B Deaths from
accidents on the home front
since Pearl Harbor still are run
ning more than two to one over
deaths to American fighting
men on all battlefronts, an
nounced Ned H. Dearborn, pres
ident ot the National Safety
Council.
The death totals on Nov. 1
were 280,000 for accidents and
108,897 for war, Dearborn said.
"No one means to lniply, of
course, that life on me home
front is as dangerous as on the
battlefront." he said. "But as
long as accidents are making a
second-place killer out of war,
they are ai challenge no serious-
minded person can Ignore"
"Success of the campaign
rests In the final analysis with
the private citizen the GI Joe
of the home front, who drives a
ear, works in a factory or office
and .otherwise lives the life of
an average American," he said.
The least we can do on the
home front is to go to a little
extra trouble to prevent these
accidents that make things
tougher for the boy on the bat
tlefront." Southpaw Teachers
Found Acceptable
To 81 Principals
Trenton. N. J. (U.R) Left-
handed teachers in New Jer
sey, at least are not particular
ly handicapped in their chosen
profession, a survey by Christie
Jeffries, assistant prolessor of
English at the State Teachers
college, Paterson, reports in the
New Jersey Educational Re
view. Curious about the subiect of
left-handed teachers, she sent a
questionnaire to Jersey princi
pals and learned that 81 princi
pals had no objection to a
"southpaw" teacher, 22 were
doubtful because ol lack of ex
perience with left-handed teach
ers, and 24 said they regarded
left-handedness .as a teacher
handicap because of the tend
ency of pupils to emulate the
teacher's writing habits.
Left-handednpss has increased
from four to 13 per cent in the
past two decades, she found, but
only 1 6 per cent of the princi
pals who answered her question-
aire were southpaws.
