The stations pay one cent a pound, or $20 a ton for the scrap. The government buys it from the petroleum industry for 525 a lone ton. But no profit is Involved, for the petroleum industry lias pledged all profit to the USO, the army and navy re lief, and the Red Cross. Instead of making anything, the KSBuuue stations una on companies are giving mucn time, effort and expense to the effort involved in hand ling the vast collection of scrap. It Is also noteworthy that inai mucn more to me renei agencies to receive the profits from the rubber collection. Hence, there need be no the scrap rubber.

Under this plan, fishermen would receive an average price of about $1 a pound. Jeff Kibre. oan rearo. representing the In- ternational Fish and Allied Workers (CIO), estimated. Pre- boom prices were about $1.50 a pound. Then they jumped to S8, $10 and $12 levels. Every war stamp or war bond you buy will hurry the time when Hitler's "all out" will be all in. . .. AND A SNAPPY SECOND FEATURE News B TfflM WASHINGTON, June 24 Cheers arc rising because Leon Henderson's sieve like price control measures have stopped price inflation but wait All economists agreed long ago that the generalized Hender son measures would stop prices at first, because we had surpluses of practically everything or at least enough to go around. But they also agreed the in flationary trend of prices would be resumed as scarcities develop- ea. mis, they now calculate, is likely to get started this coming fall or winter. Current cheer ing is therefore premature. Until scarcities develop, no up ward pressure ordinarily is felt against prices, unless some arti ficial pressure is created by hoarders attempting to stock up. This time, even that pressure evaporated a few weeks back un der interesting circumstances. A certain retail trade news paper carried a story that the war production board was con sidering a plan to requisition re tail inventories. It seems some of the larger merchandise stores as well as chain food, drug and doming stores had been over stocking. The story scared all retail in terests so much that Donald Nel son had to issue a denial that seizure of stocks was contem plated. Apparently what happened was that WPB Economic Adviser Ernest Tupper had prepared report on inventories and their relations to prices, pointing to ward stronger government con trols. ." News of this report leaked to the trade paper. Subsequent de nials calmed the retailers, but the stocking-up stopped. The impression prevails that while the leak was premature, strong government controls over retail inventories are in the offing. a BIGGER MOUSETRAP xur. it 00 seven must have a bigger mousetrap, because the statesmen of the world are cer tainly beating a path to the White House door Churchill, Molotoff, Queen Wllhelmina, King Peter, King George II. all risking their lives to cross the ocean within the past two weeks. were earlier were T. V. Soone. the Chinese foreign minister, the Australian Foreign Minister Evatt (now visiting home). Prime Minister of Poland in Exile Si korsky, and even Princess Mar tha of Norway. The official story is that most of these came because thev wanted something mostly uosi- tions on allied councils or lend- lease aid, or merely to present their cases. Any possibility that they have been talking post-war problems or signing anything with Mr. Roosevelt along that line, has been thoroughly denied The last inferential denial was made in the Harry Hopkins' speech. Mr. Hopkins said Chur chill bad but one business here "the offensive strategy of the war." The Joint Churchill ilafd NOW . mm mi s CS1 STAG!

Only safe interpretation then of this influx of foreign leaders is that Washington has become the capital of the world in fact as well as theory. . a . , GUBERNATORIAL MEET New York new dealers in the government are talking of get ting tne American labor party, the young democrats and the rruiKie repuoucans into a con vention about a week before the coming gubernatorial conven tions. They want to throw down to both the democrats and repub licans a threat against the nom inations of either Dewey or Ben nett whom they consider to be "isolationists." If these two are to be the re publican and democratic candi dates they want to nominate an independent or plump for Dew ey in order to wreck the demo cratic machine. Mr. Bennetts' candidacy they attribute to a promise which Jim Farley made to him in by-gone aays. jim, they say, wants to control the delegation to the presidential nominating conven. tion in 1944 and they are out to give mm a licking. Uhey want as democratic mi- bernatorial nominee any person who fills the bill as a liberal in ternationalist. It's strange how liberalism changes. Only a few months ago a liberal in New York or anywhere was one who was against the international bank ers. Now, to be a liberal, one must be on that side or for that same theory.

The San Francisco Press club is undertaking leadership for collections, but their movement cannot accomplish its purpose until the Japs allow some neu' tral Swiss in Manila to take charge of distribution. The In ternational Red Cross In Geneva and the American Red Cross have been working through the Japs to find some such neutral but without success. The Swedish liner Gripsholm is now taking some material along with Jap diplomats to Tok yo, and this aid will be distrib uted to our prisoners at Shang nal, Hongkong and in Japan. The Gripsholm has aboard 20,000 packages of food, $30,000 of Red Cross medical supplies, a million cigarettes and 10,000 tins of smoking tobacco. None of this will go to the Philippines until the missing Swiss is found there. The Japs will regret their pro crastination in this matter be fore this war is over. . CUPUD RETREATS SAN DIEGO, Calif., m Corp. Orin Tufts, Chicago, found a lonely pup near Camp Allan fed it, learned it belonged to I girl. He telephoned. The girl had a lovely voice. He combed, shaved, borrowed money for a date. The girl arrived. She was even prettier than Corporal Tufts had hoped. He gave her the dog and went back to camp, alone. Two big, handsome marines were escorting the girl. Read The Classified Page a T ytwiUrVi a. Sl I I .!

Fire Sweeps New Hospital Section Of Army Air Base WALLA WALLA, June 24 MP) Fire of undetermined origin which started shortly after mid' night Tuesday destroyed 21 buildings, nearly all of the hos pital section at the new army air base here, causing total dam age estimated at $150,000, Lt. Col. Earl T. Vance, base com mander, reported. The rapidly spreading flames roared through the buildings, each valued at $9000 and not yet turned over to the army, despite the combined use of air- base, Walla Walla city and coun ty and state fire equipment. No one was injured. Col. Vance said an army in vestigation was started immedi ately and meanwhile a heavy guard would be maintained over the ruins.
