1910-14 base period — exactly where it was in August, 1950. , The leveling off came after a six straight months of decline in fanners’ prices from a post-KOrea February peak. The chief reason is the prospect of bumper crops in almost every crop. As a result of the ? downward trend in farmers rices, no new commodities have hit parity levels in recent months. Parity is the “fair price” level calculated to give farmers a fair return for things he sells in relation to things he must buy. If a farm item, hits parity, then Its magufactured product becomes eligible for price ceilings.

Tooth Decay Lowest In Youth Os County Youth of Adams county are victims of tooth decay less frequently than elsewhere. This was pointed up following the proofs of the recent dental examinations given 65 Adams county boys and girls recently attending the 4-H camp. Only 27 of the grbup were warned to see their dentist, according to the report, for a rather spectacular 43 percent, which compares to the average 70 percent prevalant throughout the state. \ At the same time Indiana,: State Board of Health reresentatives, who gave the dental examinations, also gave eye examinations. Os the group, five were told to see an opitometrist for further eye examinations. The Adams County Extension office, through Agent L. E. Arch-i bold, announced that a follow-up check would be made of the youths “to determine what action had been taken. The matter of| low element of tooth decay in| Adariis county youths is no Archbold said. “The same percentage applied last year, considerably lower than youths from othyr parts of the state.” j State health ofjciala have often remarked following water checks made in the county that he prominence of fluorine accounts for the lack of decay in yoitths.

KOREAN (Continued from Page One) a Prague prison. Will Bar Exports I Unless the Czechs give some satisfactory answer by next week, the United States will be ready to: 1. Bar all American to Czechoslovakia. 2. Bar Czech commercial aircraft from flying over Western Germany. This move would be backed by Great Britain and France. Other western powers also were ’reported showing more and more interest in the Oatis case. Demands mounted in congress for immediate retaliatory action. Sen. John . Sparkman, D., Ala., a member of the foreign relations committee, said that maybe Czechoslovakia considers the case closed, but “there are things we can be doing—like cutting off trade and diplomatic relations.” Sen. Paul H. Douglas, D., 111., said “I think the Czech ambassador should be sent back to his own country.” Sen. Karl E. Mundt, R., S. D., said that if Czechoslovakia continues its present stand, “we should discontinue all economic transactions with them until Oatis is released.” ’ , . • > • TRADE IN A GOOD CITY—DECATUR
