osment in the atomic weapon field ,
in(.m.ti,nl lvl
The New York Time said the
meeUng dealt with the question of
riving to Great Britain technical
information on the production of
atomic bombs.
N Decisions
It wa learned later, however, the
newspaper added, that no decision
were msde during the session unless
the president came to some deter
mination that he did not disclose.
Any decision to give Information
to Britain would require an act of
congress before It could be carried
out. Present law forbids disclosure
of atomic lnformauon to other
countries.
Fact listed
Both th area of speculation
and the mystery were enhanced by
an accumulating number of facts,
non of which supplied any defini
tive amwers. Among them:
1. That th conference Itself wa
never announced officially, but only
acknowledged by Mr. Truman at hi
pres conference after the new al
ready had seeped out
2. That the conference was held
in the evening at Blair house, In
stead of during the day at the White
House.
1. That th White House imposed
a "no pictures" ban nd the Whit
House pres office declared there
w no ttement to be forthcoming.
4. That the usual Jovial Vice
President Barkley was grim-faced,
and Senator Tydlng wa cryptic to
an unusual extent
I. That, it waa disclosed even
tually, there wa "gentlemen'
agreement" tht no one but the
president would say anything.
Good Potato
Market Seen

potato market thl summer wa
predicted today by shippers here.
Inspector E. H. Siarubery report
ed SI cars shipped from Malheur
county this week, and predicted
tht total season shipments would
oumumner isst year net car.
On firm has tent out as many
potatoes already as it did during
the enure yesr of lot.
The U.
the tin we use from the British,
the Bolivians and the Dutch. Brit
ain set the price by what It pay
the Malavan m nes, and our agree
ment with Bolivia is tied in with
this price. About 170.000 tons of
Un will be mined this year and
consumption may not top 131000
tons. The InternaUonal tin study
group sayi the surplus will grow
in Uie next few years.
The Un that the reconstruction
finance corporation buys Is sold
through the commerce department
t o American manufacturers o t
cans, solder and bearings. So far,
the world surplus I no burden be
cause we, and others, are putting
it Into strategic stockpiles.
The British w ant to keep t h
price of their Malayan tin high for
! the obvious reason that thereby
they get more dollars to help them
balance their dollar area trad
books. They would do the same
with rubber, probably, except that
our large production of synthetic
rubber forces down the price of
natural rubber in Malaya.
Just before the war, tin brought
SO rent a pound. In 1U2 it was
only 31 cents. In thaw days. Ameri
can consumers did their own buy
ing, rather than through their gov
ernment, but they dealt In large
part with foreign cartels thit kept
a firm hand on production and
prices of Un and rubber.
Congress has Just passed, and
the president signed, a renewal of
U. 8. government control over tin
imports and the allocation of tin
among domestic users for another
12 months. The government also
controls the operation of the big
Un smelter at Texas City. Texas.
. The British and Bolivian insist
the price of Un i not too high.
They ssy mining costs have gone
up both labor snd machinery 1
higher than prewar. A price cut,
they argue, would mean a drop in
production.
The American tinplat industry
is no longer plagued by shortages
there is no longer ny mosnlng by
food packers about em being allo
cated for beer cans.
This summer the food pack is
likely to be smaller than last. This
is due to fstrly large inventories
left over frcm last year pack.
To move this surplus, canner have
trimmed prices. They now y
they plan to pay farmers less this
year, and to be more choosey In
what they buy, since they plan to
can leas.
The weather, however, could
still play hob with their plans. In
fact, the drought in the east al
ready has restricted eastern can
nery activity and sent Calllomlans
scurrying to revise upward their
quotas for vegetable pacta this
summer.
In the meantime, the housewife
can benefit from the lower prices
on canned goods. She can also tell
herself that part of her food bill is
a contribution to our foreign re
lief program through the mainten
ance of II 03 Un.
