OPS Opens Drive
Against Black
Market in Spuds
Washington (U.R) The Of
fir rl Price Stabilization laid
Wednesday it haa launched a
"nationwide" drive against the
black market n potatoes. .
The lowly spuds, once so plen
tiful that the government had
to ladle out millions of dollars
to support prices, are now hard
to find in grocery stores from
coast to coast.
Complainta Investigated
An OPS spokesman said price
agents are investigating "sev
eral hundred" complaints that
the shortage has led to under
counter sales and over-ceiling
prices.
The spokesman described the
OPS drive as a "big operation."
He said legal steps to enforce
ceilings have already been Ini
tiated in "about 20 cases."
The widespread investigation
represented a complete about
face In the OPS attitude toward
reports of a potato black market.
Only two weeks ago, an OPS
official told reporters that so
far as he knew there were no
ceiling violations anywhere.
National Average Up
The black markets have
sprung up despite the fact that
the Agriculture Department's
most recent price report showed
farmers got an average of $2.31
a bushel for potatoes during the
month ended April 15.
This national, average is up
$1.19 from a year earlier and
31 cents above the $1.73 "parity"
level at which ceiling may be
imposed.

Veto Tidelands Bill
Washington (U.R) Rep. Fran
cis E. Walter,. D.-Pa., said Wed
nesday that President Truman
"can't very well veto" the tide-
lands oil bill which is nearing
final congressional approval.
A Senate - House Conference
Committee agreed Tuesday to
adopt the Senate version of the
measure to give the states, ratn-
er than the federal government,
control over the oil-rich sub
merged lands off the coast.
Walter, who sponsored the
somewhat different House ver
sion,, said there is no question
that bolh chambers will quickly
go through the motions of ap
proving the conference commit
tee's action. That would send the
bill to the White House, where
many administration supporters
expect Mr. Truman to veto lt. He
vetoed a similar bill several
years ago

Baker Strike Brings
Higher Bread Prices
By UNITED PRESS
The bakers' strike in the Paci
fic Northwest has resulted in
price raises in some stores of
from one to five cents above the
legal price for bread, Paul Volpe,
acting district director for the
Office of Price Stabilization said
in Seattle Wednesday.
A check of many independent
bakeries and retail stores show
ed that they were selling bread
at ceiling prices, he said, but
some grocers were importing
bread and adding freight charges
to the price.
In Portland, Harold Carlson,
secretary of the independent re
tail grocers' association, said the
group would ask OPS to author
ize a nrice boost of not more
than two cents per loaf so the
grocer legally can pass freight
