SUB-CONTRACTING Donald M. Nelson. OPM Director of Purchases, speakng in Pittsburgh, said the problem of plants faced with a shutdown because of shortages of materials for civilian goods can be met by the cooperation of local busi ness, labor, government, civic groups and banks in seeking defense work.

S. off the high seas by the “ruthless” sinking of the U. S. merchantman Robin Moor in the South Atlantic and proclaimed this country will not yield to such “outrageous and in defensible” acts of "an international outlaw.” The President said if the U. S. yielded on the issue, “we would Inevitably submit to world domina tion. . . ” The President froze all funds and other assets in the U. S. of Germany, Italy and all invaded or occupied European countries and the State Department directed the German Government to close all its con sular establishments not later than July 10. The President said that he froze German financial facilities here to prevent their use in ways harmful to national defense. The sta te Depart ment said German consulates were ordered closed because their activi ties had become contrary to the welfare of this country.

The Secretary also re ported cost of living In large cities rose 0.7 per cent between mid-April and mid-May, making an Increase in living costs of moderate-Income j families of 2.4 per cent since June, j 1940, and 4.4 per cent since August, 1939, with food costs more than 5 per cent higher Ihan a year ago. and 9 per cent higher than two years ago. AGRICULTURE Agriculture Secretary Wickard is sued a statemene that “to date we have been able to buy only half the amount of cheese we wanted by the end of June (for lend-lease activi ties) and less than two-thirds of the amount of evaporated milk. The output has increased but we need more.” Mr. Wickard said increased prices for milk going into cheese and evaporated milk, supported by Gov ernment purchases, should yield farmers a higher return than any other dairy product. Speaking at Syracuse, N. Y., Mr. Wickard said the food situation in Europe is such that if the war con- tinues for a long time the issue may finally be "who can feed the people, the democracies or tlft dictatorships? Therefore food reserves may be more important than munitions reserves.” OIL President Roosevelt placed all pet roleum products under export licen sing control. Defense Petroleum Co ordinator Ickes, working to overcome the shortage of oil on the East Coast due to shortage of transport facilities, requested oil shippers not to sell petrolium products for foreign shipment without consultation with him. He also ordered Customs offic ials to halt the shipment of 240,000 gallons of oil from Philidelphia to Japan in order to conserve oil in that area. The Maritime Commission an nounced no American owned or con trolled tankers are carying oil to Germany. Italy or Japan. Price and Civilian Supply Administrator Hen derson asked petroleum refiners not to raise prices without prior con sultation with his office. The Census Bureau reported that if the 30,000,000 American motorists would reduce their driving speed 20 per cent, the annual saving in gaso line consumption would amount to 4.6000,000,000 gallons. AIR Assistant Secretary of War Lov ett, in a radio address, said “within a year we shall be geared to turn out 50.000 planes a year for as long as the emergency lasts." Mr. Lovett said the Air Corps is increasing the number of pilots in training from 12.000 to 30,000 a year and the num ber of mechanics from 45.000 to more than 100,000. He said the Air Corps is already nearly one-fourth of the entire Army and only the Infantry is larger. ARMY The War Department announced trainees will be permitted to volun teer as parachute troops. Heretofore, only Regular Army soldiers were chosen. The Department authorized construction of field houses at 25 Army posts to provide facilities for basketball, boxing and wrestling and other indoor sports. Each field house will accomidate between 2 750 and 3,750 spectators and cost approx imately $77,000 each. CUSTOM BUTCHERING and CUTTING Beef for the Hide Hogs 200 lbs. $1.50 Cutting 1 cent per lb.
