I Since the end of the war, the na-
tional unemployment picture haa
undergone a remarkable geograph-
ic shift which finds the highest per-
centage of Jobless workers In the
western states, a recent survey has
disclosed.
Although the problem of unem-
ployed workers is not as serious
i In the West as it was before the
war. their numbers are gradually
increasing, according to a depart-
ment of labor analysis of conditions,
j In 1940 the heaviest unemploy-
ment in relation to the labor force
was in the North. Now it is in the
West. The South is in the same
relative position as before the war.
Increasing unemployment in the
West is attributed mainly to the
tremendous migration of war work-
ers to Pacific coast factories and
shipyards. Most of the migrants
stayed after V-J Day layoffs be-
gan, and subsequent expansion of
peacetime industry has not been
rapid enough to absorb all those
who were laid off, together with th*
returning veterans.

SMALL FRY fcy
WHEAT CROP:
Inconceivable
“Almost inconceivable” is the
way grain men have described the
prospective size of the 1947 wheat
crop in the United States.
According to a government fore-
cast as of June 1, a total wheat crop
of 1,409,800,000 bushels is indicated
this year, the largest on record.
That compares with the 1,155,715,000
bushels harvested last year, which
was an unprecedented high up to
that time.
The forecast showed the winter
wheat prospect to be 1,093,071,000
bushels and 316,822,000 bushels for
spring wheat.
Unequalled winter wheat crop*
are in sight for all of the great
plains area, as well as Texas, Okla-
hOQria, Kansas, Nebraska and Colo-
rado. Altliougfi the cold, wet sprint?

Sugar Is Back
For the first time since April 28,
1942, Americans, and especially
housewives, could go shopping with-
out ration coupons as the govern-
ment called a halt to the rationing
of sugar for households, restaurants
; and hotels.
Secretary of Agriculture Clinton

plaining that it was made possible

Price controls on sugar, as well
as rationing of the product for in-
dustrial use will continue, however.
Afl sugar controls are scheduled to
expire October 31 unless congress
dictates otherwise.
Three reasons which acted to
bring about an end to sugar ration-
ing were:
1. Allotment by the Interna-
tional Emergency food council
to the United States of 350,000
tons of sugar from Cuba in ad-
dition to that which was allotted
earlier In the year.
2. Presence of still more sur-
plus sugar in Cuba, which will
help cut down demands from
other parts of the world.
3. About 200,000 tons of Java-
nese sugar now will be offered
to world users.
Secretary Anderson said that he
“did not dare” end rationing until
he learned of the extra sugar in
Cuba.

by Senator Taft’s economic commit-

contention that tax reduction is nec-
essary as a means of stimulating
investment and increasing consum-

tee report said industry is booming,
profits are high, plant expenditures
higher. It gives little creden h to

United States diplomats might not
be able to get a word in edgewise
with Vyacheslav M. Molotov, hard-
boiled Soviet foreign minister, but
one of the “common men,” M. E.
Schroeder of Oelwein, Iowa, did so
simply by calling him long dis- f
tance at the Kremlin in Moscow.
Feeling in a convivial mood,
Schroeder, a fireman for the Chi-
cago Great Western railroad, decid-
ed to make the call at 2 o’clock one
morning after coming in from his
run.

minor officials in the Kremlin that

HARSH WORDS
Some 15 million tenants in rental
properties will be affected by the
rent control bill. If approved as it
passed the senate, the bill will re-
sult in a rent hike of 15 per cent,
probably higher in some instances.
In case of a veto, there will be a
last minute scramble for passage of
a new law or no rent control, since
the present law expires June 30.
ALCOHOLIC THERAPY WITH A
FOLLOW UP
Note to Russia
The United States has accused
Russia of using threats and coer-
cion to instigate the recent Com-
munist coup d’etat in Hungary.
A strongly worded note to the
Soviet union charged the Soviet
commander in Hungary with violat-
ing terms *f the Yalta agreement
which guaranteed that liberated na-
tions would retain their sover-
eignty.
Implicit, but not specifically
stated, in the note was a warning
that the United States will call for
a United Nations investigation of
the circumstances under which
Hungary's democratic regime was
overthrown and Cdmmunist rule in-
stalled.
Main proposal embodied in the
protest was that the United States,
Great Britain and Russia make a
joint investigation of the political
situation in Hungary. Russia previ-
ously rejected two earlier American
requests for such a probe.
Tile U. S. position is that Hun-
garian Premier Nagy was forced
into exile arid was compelled to re-
sign in order to make way for the
Communist seizure of power. Hun-
garian Communists were fully sup-
ported by the Soviets in this move,
the American note claimed.

Russia Blamed
Russia had another black mark
j scored against her when the Chi-
nese government formally blamed
the Soviet union for the invasion of
Sinkiang province by Outer Mongo-
lian troops.
By the time the forces frorti Out-
er Mongolia, which is under Rus-
sian domination, had captured the
city of Peitaishan 200 miles inside
the Chinese border, China’s foreign
office had decided that the conflict
was more than an ordinary frontier
incident.
Foreign office sources said^he in-
vasion had political rather than
military implications, aimed at giv-
ing a pro-Russian special commis-
sioner in Sinkiang complete con-
trol of the province.
Protesting to Moscow, China de-
manded immediate evacuation ol
Mongolian troops from the prov-
ince and a guarantee against sim>
ilar incidents in the future.
PARASITES:

“Parasite” fighter planes, escorts
to be freighted to battle aboard the
B-36 superbombers of the army air
forces and then released to fight on

Reason for the "parasites” is that
the 100 B-36 planes now under con-
struction at Fort Worth, Tex., have
such a tremendous range that no
fighter plane could accompany
them on a ^complete Journey.
INEXCUSABLE:
Depression Talk
Arthur D. Whiteside, president of
Dun and Bradstreet, scored pessi-
mistic predictions of a coming de-
pression when he told a New York
board of trade meeting that "We
are not beading for a depression,
and could not have one if we want-
ed to."
He deplored the nation-wide im-
pression of pessimism he said New
York was generating as the nation’s
economic center.

UP AGAIN
Meat Prices
Rapid, and in some cases unex-
plained, advances in the retail
prices of meat have been reported
from many sections of the country.
Some of the reasons offered for
the price jumps were: Seasonal in-
fluences, higher feed costs, heavy
foreign purchases. In a number ol
instances, however, packers admit-
ted that they were puzzled over the
sharp increase in retail prices.
Steak, which sold for 70 to 80
cents a pound six months ago, was
being listed as high as $1.25 in
Scranton, Pa„ and a dollar in New
York. In Chicago, retail meat prices
experienced a general increase of
10 cents or more on popular and
scarce cuts in mid-June.
There was one bright prediction,
however: When the autumn beef
run begins, prices are expected to
drop as much as 25 per cent.
