Tompkins, Oregon Stale Grange
muter, and Ray W. Gill, chair
man of the National Grange ex
ecutive committee, today joined
National Master Albert S. Goss
in strongly criticizing the OPA
price subsidy program.
The two officials, here for the
70th annual state grange meet
ing, declared the OPA's program
"directly contributes to Inflation
by further increasing the pur
chasing power of the high in
come group a purchasing
power which already is in ex
cess of the amount of consumer
goods available."
"The rollback price program
is in reality a consumer subsidy
coming at a time when consumer
Income is the highest in our his
tory," they said in a joint state
ment. "Washington Confuses"
At the same convention. Gov
ernor Earl Snell declared that
confusion brought on by regula
tion and directive issued from
Washington, D. C, "3000 miles
way" have added to the prob
lems of the farmer.
Noting that farmers' problems
have been numerous and com
plex during the emergency, the
governor said: These regula
tions and directives In several in
stances have been composed by
persons who have been none too
familiar with what the farmers
problems are all about, or com
posed by persons who have be
come confused In following the
diagram of direction on how to
use an executive desk."
Loyalty Praised"
Snell praised farmers for their
loyalty and patriotism, and gave
them credit for fully recognizing
the additional responsibilities
placed on their shoulders. "The
farmer realizes the first line of
battle can extend not one foot
farther than the supply and food
line that go to maintain front
line forces," he said.
The governor indicated that
the farm labor situation would
be met this year with virtually
the same plan used last year. He
praised officials of the state em
ployment service, the extension
service and the manpower com
mission in developing this Ore
gon plan which has been adopt
ed by many other states. He
pointed out that the present con
tract agreement between the ex
tension and employment services
of Oregon was the first to be

members of the city ordinance
prohibiting public dances on Sun
day, and asked if they wished
any exceptions made. Council
members decided that the
ordinance should apply in ail
cases.
W. -O. Smith, member of the
property committee, requested
that his name be withdrawn from
that committee, since he is also
a member of the bond committee.
His name was withdrawn, and
no one was chosen to fill his
place on the committee.
A letter from A. A. Soule was
read to the council, asking that
a hole Division street be
filled, suggesting that dumping
of dirt from other haulings be
used to fill the hole. Frank
Howard, acting engineer during
the time of City Engineer E. A.
Thomas' illness, estimated that
about 200 feet of gravel would
be needed to fill the hole, and
said that material from other
haulings could be used for that
purpose. He was authorized by
the council to see that this was
done.
A meeting, of the planning

Touching on future demands
upon agriculture, when farmers
will be called upon to feed many
nations of the world, Snell said
marketing and specialized agri
cultural problems would come
along with these demands. He
urged that the agriculture de
partment be more than a licens

after the last war," he declared,
"but no undue expectations
should be placed on it. We pre
pared to win this war by hard
fighting and,, if necessary, by
hard fighting alone."
Napoleon defeated the Prus
sians at Jena October 14. 1806.
Other points made by Mr.
Churchill to the cheering com
mons in his first long review
since February 11 were these:
1. "Taking some of the weight
off Russia and giving more
speedy and effective aid to
China . , . are never absent tor
one moment from our thoughts
and aims." He expressed regrets
that no recent conference had
yet been arranged with Marshal
Stalin.
2. "The might of America is
deployed far over the Pacific and
is laying an ever stronger grip
on the outlying defenses of Japan
and offering every moment to
the Japanese fleet the supreme
challenge of sea power."
3. That no pressure was exert
ed to bring the French together.
4. That allied troops and com
manders were eager for "the
most intense and violent" attack
on the axis.
5. That the American second
corps in Tunisia captured 33,000
Germans and 4000 Italians. Brit
ish first army casualties were
23.500 and the eighth army cas
ualties since crossing from Tri
politania were 11.500. Only 638
enemy troops escaped, mostly by
air.
Immediately after speaking,
Mr. Churchill went to Bucking
ham palace to have lunch and
report to the king.
Nasi Reaction
The German radio in mid-afternoon
referred briefly to the
Churchill broadcast, giving most
attention to his remarks about
the coming amphibious opera
tions and to his figures on Brit
ish casualties in North Africa. It
made no mention whatever of
the much larger axis losses.
Warning against over-confidence,
Churchill told commons
that much hard fighting lay
ahead before final victory could
be achieved. -
He made it plain, that plans
laid in Washington called for
"the most intense and violent"
attack upon the axis and referred
to "operations now impending
in the European theatre" as if
they were a foregone conclusion
Eager For Attack
The plans, he indicated, em
brace all aspects of the global
war, but he reported particularly
that allied commanders in North
Africa were "resolute in the
plans they have made" and that
their troops are eager for the at
tack at the earliest moment.
Churchill referred to the Tuni
sian victory as one of the great
est military disasters that had
ever befallen Germany com

imrrarinnf1 ul4 (har. w.. ..
doubt Hitler had expected his'
armies in North Africa to hold
out until August.
Declaring that the "Germans
seem to be staking their hopes
on the U-boat war," he asserted
that allied successes in overcom
ing this menace may well prove
the "fateful milestone" in the
battle to smash Hitler's power.
And he gave assurance that
nothing can turn Britain, the
United States and soviet Russia
"from our endeavor to accom
plish the complete destruction of
our foes by bombing from the air
in addition to all other means."
The prime minister alluded to
the far eastern phases of the
struggle by declaring that "the
steady wearing down of Ger
man and Japanese air forces is
proceeding remorselessly."

told Gilbert that "when the OPA
gets through with this it will
have benefited Just one group
and nobody else.
"Your whole approach Is
wrong, he contended.
"If we don't roll-back the cost
of living," retorted Gilbert,
"we'll have to permit compen
sating increases in wage rates."
"I don't see that at all," said
Taft. "That's all statistics, not
facts."
Taft charged that OPA had
wasted effort by "trying to con
trol the prices of thousands of
products instead of about 100 of
some importance."
"We've failed to stabilize con
stantly," acknowledged Gilbert.
"But until we do that we're go
ing to have a creeping inflation.
We're ' threatened now with a
rise of two, three and even five
per cent a month in the cost of
living."
"I must say that is due to gross
inefficiency on the part of OPA,"
said Taft. "The whole adminis
tration is not in accord with the
price control act. A difference of
two cents a pound on meat for
Instance isn't going to affect the
situation a whole lot."
C. M. Elklnton. OPA food
price executive, was asked by
McClellan to explain the
agency's authority for the sub
sidies. "That's not pertinent," advised
Senator Tobey (R-N.H.). "For the
last several years these things
have been thrust down our
throats."
Elkinton explained that "part
of the determination" was made
by James F. Byrnes, war mobil
ization chief, when he was eco
nomic stabilization director.

STOCKHOLM. June 8 (aP)
The Berlin correspondent of the
Stockholm Tidnlngcn quoted
nazl military circles as saying
that German officers must count
from hour to' hour on an allied
Invasion.
These circles, he said, assert
ed they were depending on a
powerful submarine fleet to aid
in wrecking the invaders' land
ing operations.
He said these German mili
tary sources told him they were
watching for allied blows
against Belgium, the northern
French coast, southern France,
Italy and the Balkans.
South Attack 8een
The Berlin correspondent of
the Svcnska Dagbladet at the
same time quoted Dr. Kurt
Pseisser, German military anal
yst, as saying that- the first at
tack would come from the Med
iterranean since, he said, the
allies have three well-drilled
and excellently-equipped armies
two British and one American
and a reserve of French troops
ready for action.
Germans were quoted as say
ing that the allies were growing
stronger, could not bo underesti
mated and likely would engi
neer a "clever invasion plan.
Everything Ready
They asserted, according to
the Swedish press accounts, that
an attack could not be a com
plete surprise as everything was
ready for defense, but the mo
ment of invasion and the points
of landing might create a rela
tive surprise for a short period,
The German high command,
these advices said, was expect
ing diversified attacks and was
concentrating main bodies of
axis troops inland, rather than
spreading them along the coast,
so forces could be shifted as
needed.

to northern France, gava this
picture of what might happen
If an Invasion were launched
there:
British warships would set up
a terrific barrage against Euro
pean coastal batlcrlrs, accom
panied by a mass aerial bom
bardment. Small landing boats carrying
120 men each would proceed
under the barrage cover toward
the coast, carrying some 50,000
men In the first attack wave.
Other boats carrying light
weapons and smull tanks would
be In the first wave.
As soon as the attack was
discovered, the Germans would
concentrate Ubont packs, which
were presumed to be stationed
around possible Invasion areas
waiting for an allied blow, and
serial power in an effort to
wreck the landing plans. '
The Germans were quoted as
estimating that only 13,000 of
tha first 50,000 troops could be
