Farmers Not Guilty Of
August Food Price Hikes
By OVID A. MARTIM
WASHINGTON l Any recent
Increase m the family food bill
now at a record high level cannot
be blamed on farmers. Agriculture
Department officials said today.
These officials cited a depart
ment report Issued late yesterday

el of prices paid farmers in mid
August was unchanged from mid
Julv. In fact, farm prices have
gone up only 1 per cent during
the past year.
Officials also pointed out that
while retail food prices have been
reported by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics to be at an all-time high,

WASHINGTON I - ReW J;
Greene, president of the National
Savings and Loan League, said to
day Institutions financing home
loans can expect "exceUent busi
ness" to continue well Into the
Diddle of 1953.
The league is a private organ-
GreJene said he finds the follow

A heavy demand for home fi
nancing funds from savings asso

continued high level of housing
starts: heavy requests from the
Veterans Administration for. ap
praisals on veterans loans: a
stretch-out in military spending;
high employment and large private
savings: record breaking over-all
national production.
Greene said he anticipates the
government soon will lift virtually
all controls on home financing.

abnormally high. Extreme north
west Florida will have strong shift
ing winds which, the bureau said,
may reach gale force early today.
The storm last night moved over
a curved course that erased the
Immediate threat to the Florida
mainland but the Weather Bureau
said "It's going to be a close
brush" for the Carolina and Geor
gia coasts.
Radar equipped Navy planes
tracked the twister through the
night.
Forecaster Paul Moore said the
storm had begun a noilhward
curve which might take It on a
parallel to the mainland and cause
its strongest winds to spend them-
at about 6 per cent below the peak
reached m February of last year.
The drought which affected wide
areas during July and early August
had little if any effect on faun
prices. Some government officials
had expressed concern that the
dry weather could cause sharp ad
vances in both farm and retail
food prices.
Officials said that If present gen
erally favorable weather conditions
continue, total farm production
would be larger than expected.
This could cause a modest decline
in farm prices during the months
ahead.
The farmers' economic situation
was a little less favorable In mid
August than In mid-July because
his prices as a whole did not
change, and prices he paid for
goods and services used in farm
production and in family living
went up a third of 1 per cent.
Quite a number of farm products
brought prices below the level de
clared by law to be equally fair
to farmers and those who buy their
products. In this class were wheat,
rice, corn, peanuts, tobacco, wool,
barley, dry beans, cottonseed, flax
seed, oats, hogs, eggs, and citrus
fruits.
Products which brought produ
cers prices at or above the fair
level parity Included cotton pota
toes, butterfat, milk, rye, sweet
potatotes, beef cattle, veal calves
and lambs. .
Marine Blames
Steel Strike
POTTSVILLE, Pa. I A marine
fatally wounded in action in Korea
wrote home that his ammunition
supply was reduced because of the
steel strike, the youth's mother
said yesterday.
In a letter dated Aug. 3, Mrs.
Thomas V. Haley told reporters,
her son, 22-year-old Pfc William
W. Lewis, wrote:
"That steel strike has really af
fected us. I had a fire mission and
asked for five pounds. They gave
me one and told me that there was
a steel strike, and they had to con
serve ammo. Well, I guess that's
life."
On Aug. 4, strict rationing of
ammunition for use by any but
units in action and troops destined
for combat was announced by
Army Secretary Karl R. Bendet
sen, who said the steel strike cost
the Army about 37 per cent of its
scheduled ammunition production
for the current year.
Mrs. Haley was notified six days
after the letter that her son died
on board a hospital ship, the U.S.S.
Haven, from wounds received
