NOW Next Big Attraction Mickey Rooney As "Killer McCoy" If Election Year Price Feud Gains Heat As Anderson Tosses 'Politics' Charge WASHINGTON. Ken. 10 tl'i The cry of " pol'l'c" echoed on both sides today in thf election year priee feud between President Truman and Henator Taft (R-Uhiol, The laleat Jab eame from Sec retary of Atricullure Anderson. Anderson aaid Taft, a candidate for the republican presidential nomination, acted for "political rea ons" when he declared the admin istration waa trying- to keep prirea high for political fain. There was no immediate reply from Taft who left for a mid western speaking tour at about the time Anderson hit back. But on the nation's economy in general, the Ohio senator sutd in a In.TU Dafflcws (Continued from Page 1) the Marshall plan for Europe should be kept free of partisan politics in the pending election campaigns. He 1 right as he often is. Try ing to make political capital out of the needs of a hungry and war crippled world is about as discredit able as anything can be. If we're going to help Europe, we ought to turn in and HELP. If not, we'd better shut up and attend to our knitting here at home. SENATOR CAIN (the new Republic-, 1. - r Washington) says in Pueblo. Col orado the. too, is out making speeches) that the Democratic party is "tired, cynical and decadent." He's about right. The Democratic party HELD TOO MUCH POWER IN TOO FEW HANDS TOO LONG. That will wreck anybody. It wrecked the old Republican party in its day. SENATOR CAIN, in talk, describes the his Pueblo Democratic party as "a mixture of liberals, pseudo (fake) liberals and con servatives." The Republicans, he says, are "basically conservative." Here is something to think about: Conservatism, in the process of CHANGE that goes on perpetually in this world, HAS BECOME LIBERALISM. "Liberalism" (note the quotation marks) became so con cerned with SOMETHING FOR NOTHING that it forgot the funda mental truth that "in the sweat of thy brow shalt thou earn thy bread." True liberalism rests upon funda mentals, and by insisting upon these fundamentals conservatives are RE TURNING to liberalism. It sounds screwball, but isn't. TJERE is this writer's advice to Re. publicans: Figure out what you BELIEVE, and then stick to it Quit horsing around with politics AS POLITICS. Be sincere. The people of this country are YEARNING for somebody who will forget politics and be himself. That explains Eisenhower' tremendous popularity in the opinion polls. Driver Cited In Accident Mrs. R. W. Barrett. 57.. of 112 N. 3rd, was hit by a car and slightly injured yesterday afternoon at 7th and Klamath, and the driver, Or rille A.

Other Developments Meanwhile, there were these other developments dealing with the na tion's economy: 1. Meeting President Truman's request, the senate-house economic committee voted 8 to to review rationing to liquor producers through October. The next step is up to the senate and house banking committees. They must decade whether to abide by the Joint committee's recom mendation and send a bill to both chambers. The key to the situation appeared to re.st with the house banking com nnttee. That group last month killed a senate bill which would have continued controls on grain for whisky through February. Chairman Wolcott (R-Mlch.) pledged "very careful" consideration of the matter but gave no hint that his committee might reverse itself. i. Senator Tobey (R-N.H.I, chair man of the senate banking com mittee, told a reporter he favors "very strongly" an extension of con trols over use of tin and certain other scarce commodities. These and import restrictions covering such products and fata and oils are due to expire February 29. .Mr. Truman asked yesterday that they be con tinued to prevent "contusion at home and abroad." CHICAGO. Feb. 10 (4V-Senator Taft (R.-Oliio) said today the United States can't afford to "give away" so much to Europe that price controls will be needed again at home. Taft came here to begin a mid winter hunt in six Midwestern states for GOP presidential nomination support. Accompanied by Mrs. Taft. he will invade Minnesota Thursday for a major speech on the home grounds of Harold E. Stassen. The former Minnesota governor has challenged Taft to battle over Ohio delegates to tne repuoilcan national conven tion. In an address prepared for a I meeting of the Inland Daily Press I association today, tile Ohio senator j declared that individual freedom at ! home must be "the ultimate purpose of any foreign policy." lait. who has called for a cut in the 86.800.000,000 proposed by Presi dent Truman for the first 15 months of the European recovery program, added: "We should not be actuated by purely altruistic desire to improve the condition of a lot of other peo ple who have failed for centuries to do the Job for themselves." Grain Futures Break Sharply CHICAGO, Feb. 10 VP) Grain fctures broke sharply on the board o' trade after the opening today. Brokers said general trading was influenced by liquidation in corn which was off as much as 4'.j cents bushel shortly after the start. Wheat and oats broke around three cents a bushel. Traders said the propects of con tinued limiting of the use of grain by distillers had a disturbing effect on the already nervous com mar ket. Prospects of better European crops and declining estimates by the government for export wheat were factors in the break In that grain. During the first half hour of trading wheat was one to four cents lower than yesterday's close. May $2.53?;: corn was 2'4 to 4'i cents lower. May $2.16. and oats were lj to three cents lower, May $1.07. 20 Die In Old People's Home Fire ST.

Sec retary of State Marshall says the dismantling of idle German war plants for use elsewhere "will aid. not hamper, the economic recovery of Europe." He feels "It would obviously be unwise to abandon the Potsdam reparations settlement merely by reason of Soviet malfeasance."
