If the fund isn t passed, there's not much future for myself, or anyone else on the force, for that matter." Opponents of the pension fund maintain that the 20-year service clause would retire many police-; men long before their useful years, had ended They also frown on the* section of the bill which would give, a life (tension to officers disabled ' outside the line of duty.

: Grain, Stock And . Butter Prices Drop Have Little Effect At Retailer Levels Chicago, July 20 — (UP) — Grain, livestock, and butter prices dropped slightly at major markets today but experts said housewives would not benefit much from the decline. Wholesale butter prices dropped two cents a pound in New York and up to two cents at Chi cago in nervous early trading. Hogs sold up to 25 cents a hun dredweight lower at 12 major mid western terminals. Grain generally was only a fraction of a cent a bushel lower in Chicago. Although prices continued to decline from the all-time high levels registered last week, agri culture department experts said they probably would sett’e only slightly lower The decline would have little effect on retail prices, they said. The grain market showed signs of stiffening today, following a sharp decline yesterday while livestock prices have fallen very little from last week’s peaks. I Butter prices dropped sharply ,at the Chicago mercantile ex- ‘ change yesterday but fell only H ito two cents today. The 2-cent drop at New York was more pronounced. Wheat was unchanged to down • one cent a bushel In early trading on the Chicago board of trade ' Oats, which fell the farthest yesI terday. changed only fractionally. | Corn and other major grains were , down only slightly i Lightweight hogs sold 25 cents a hundred pounrs lower at the big Chicago market with a top of ( |29 50. The St. Louis hog market was weak to 25 cents lower on lightweights while hogs were steady to 25 cents lower at Indi anapolii Wholesale meat prises were steady to Ipwer In early trading at the New York market. Beef fe'l up to one cent a pound while cow beef, veal ami mutton remained steady Choice lamb was down two to three cents. Before the establishment c.f standard time on November 18, 1883, Ameiiean railroads were using about 100 different standards of time
SOVIET RUSSIA (Cont. From Page One) saryIn one of the first reactions to the Russian move, the joint commerce and Industry commission for the Anglo-American area reported that Russia still owes Berlin 75.000 tons of food promised in 1946 and 1947. It said the Soviets promised the food in exchange for iron, steel, tires, tubes and other commodities Further, the commission said one-third of the bread and grain which the Soviets promised Berlin in a previous pooling arrangement had not been delivered. Those facts, the commission observed. cast some doubt on the ability of the Soviets to carry out the proposal to send in more than 100.000 tons of foodstuffs now I*aot Friday the Berlin press reported that Germans In the Soviet zone had not yet received their April rations “because available food has been taken to Russia “ The Soviet announcement said payment in Soviet currency would be required and that sales would be conducted at shops in the Russian sector of the city. But western allied (rfiservers qulcklv pointed out that the Soviet offer thus far was "only on paper." They wondered how the Germans, -who arc required to huy only from certain specified shops, would get a ion M weeking services of assistant manager.

ration cards for food in the Sbviet sector. Western Berliners themselves were skeptical of the Russian offer. Only last Friday the Berlin press pointed out that Germans in the Soviet-occupied zone had not yet received their April rations “because available food had been taken to Russia.” Germans said no meat bad been issued on ration cards in the Soviet zone of Germany for months. They said Russian authorities had substituted skimmed cheese Seeks 10 Percent Pig Crop Increase Washington. July 20 — (UP) Secretary of agriculture Charles E Brannan today called for a 10 percent increase in the pig crop starting next fall to forestall a further drop In meat stiplies. Unless more pigs are raised next winter, he said, meat suppNt-s in 1949 will be even lower titan they are now. He said more pork would offset expected declines in beef, veal, lamb and mutton. Brannan recalled that, at last reports, farmers were planning to raise about as many pigs next win ter as they did last. He named in creased feed production, strong demand for meat and assured govern ment pi ice supports as good reasons for increasing output.

WALLACE (Cent. From Page One) man Democrats were making plans for state conventions to endorse the actions taken by Dix ir-( rats at Birmingham. Ala., last weekend. Gov Fielding L. Wright of Mississippi, vice presidential nominee on the rebel ticket, said he would ask the Democratic state convention to meet Aug. .’!. And In Florida, attorney general J. Tom Watson said he would Issue a call shortly for a meeting of those "who support the declaration of principles of the Birming bam conference." At the same time, the Dixiecrats let It be known that they can get along without the support of crusader Gerald L K Smith The leader of the Christian Nat ionallat Crusade said he would support the states' rights ticket because "the negro and the Jew are exerting too much control in American politics." But Gov. J. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, who heads the ticket, said “we do not invite and we do not need the support of Smit I) or any other raiilde rousers."
