Shortage of Potatoes,
Soybean Price Squeeze
Force Handlers Out
Defld lint Sunday Classified! la al
. 1 noon Saturdays
Chicago (U.R) Potato
wholesalers and soybean pro
cessors had one thing in com
mon. Some of them were out
of business.
The potato men were victims
of a nationwide spud shortage.
The soybean processors com
plained of a "price squeeze."
Three big Illinois soybean
processors A. E. Staley Manu
facturing Co., Archer - Daniels
Midland Co., and Swift and Co.
have closed their plants within
the last few days.
Association Closed
The potato shortage has forced
all 2B members of the Chicago
Potato Dealers Association to
close. About 60 wholesalers and
Jobbers in Chicago, the world's
biggest potato market, were out
of business.
Spokesmen for the wholesal
ers charged that there is a wide
spread black market, and that
many reputable firms are en
gaged in it.
Illegal Channels Claimed
Wholesalers said price ceilings
were forcing potatoes into "ille
gal channels," and that the" Of
fice of Price Stabilization is
powerless to cope with the situ
ation. A spokesman for the OPS said
it is investigating, but that "so
far we've had hardly any com
plaints from housewives."
"The wholesalers are sore be
cause many big potato users are'
buying directly from the pro
ducers and eliminating the mid
dle man," the OPS spokesman
said.
Subsidy Removal Blamed
Despite conflicting black mar
ket reports, all sources agreed
that the basic cause of the short
age was the removal of govern
ment subsidies from potatoes.
At Des Moines, la., state In
spectors said one out-of-state
shipper inserted a stove pipe
into an empty bag, filled the pipe
w 1 1 n interior potatoes, sur
rounded it with spuds of higher
quality and withdrew the pipe.
Processed at Loss
Soybean ..processors ..com
plained that soybeans are selling
for about $3 a bushel, and that
it costs them another 30 cents a
bushel to process them Into meal
and oil.
Processors said that at current
prices and Under OPS ceilings
they have been getting only
about ?2.80 a bushel for the pro
cessed products, for a loss of
about 40 cents a bushel.
HORSEMEAT BAN ENDS
Washington U.R The Office
of Price Stabilization has lifted
its ban on the use of horsemeat
in sausages. It stipulated that
such products must be clearly la
belled so the customer will
know what he Is getting.
Washington (U.R) Senate

day to bring the St. Lawrence

2 Central Oregon
Mills and Union
Reach Agreement
Portland (U.R) The CIO
woodworkers strike at two cen
tral Oregon mills was ended
Wednesday as union representa
tives and members of employers
groups continued to negotiate
here in an attempt to end the
five-state lumber tie-up.
Some 185 workers at Ponde
rosa Molding company at Red
mond and Tite Pine mills at Sis
ters reached an agreement at
Redmond on a local level.
The workers received a 7Vi
cent pay raise, three more paid
holidays, making fix: a boost In
the night differential and other
benefits. The workers, however,
were to handle their own health
and welfare program.
Chief obstacle in getting an
agreement to end the walkout of
nearly 40,000 woodworkers is
the union s demand for a com
pany paid health and welfare
program.
