Firs! Shipment Os Food For Germans 2,800 Tons Os Food In First Shipment NEW YORK, UP — The S. S. American Inventor sails for Ger* many today with the first shipment of food offered by President Eisenhower to hungry East Germans. ; \ The ship was scheduled to sail for Hamburg with about 2,800 tons of flour, dried milk, lard and foodstuffs. The balances of the 4,600-ton first shipment, valued at |2,000,000 will be sent aboard another freighter next Tuesday. There was no certainty the food would ever reach kitchens of Com-munist-dominated East Germans. Red leaders have denied a food shortage existed, and rejected the President’s offer of food as. a “propaganda trick.”

Doubt Postal Rate Increase This Session Small Business In Sharp Opposition To Rate Increase By UNITED PRESS The national association of manufacturers today “heartily and vigorously” endorsed the administration’s request for an immediate increase in postal rates. 1 But the national small business men’s association said the boost, coupled with extension of the excess profits tax, would place an “insurrmountable burden’’ on all small business men. ■Their positions were given at a house post office committee hearing during a lull in a filibuster by rebellious Republicans and Democrats against postmaster general Arthur E. Summerfield’s bid for approval ot the rate increase before congress adjourns. Summerfield had to attend a cabinet meeting and was excused from’ what would *have been his fifth straight day of cross-examin-ation. Chairman Edward H. Rees R-Kan. used the breathing spell to squeeze in as many other witnesses as possible. Acting senate Republican leader William F. Knowland Calif, said he believes there will be no mail rate boost this year. Knowland said after a senate Republican policy committee meeting that he doubts the administration’s controversial $240,000,000 postage increase measure can be passed before the July 31 -adjournment target date." I The leader said he still believes congress can wind up its most pressing business and get ready to go home by Aug. 1. Other congressional news: Refugees — The senate judiciary committee failed in another try to get agreement -on the administration’s bill to admit 240,000 European refugees. It scheduled another attempt for tonight. Senate GOP leaders plan \to fit the bill into the "must” pre-adjournment schedule — if it emerges from the committee in time. Clardy — Freshman Rep. Kit Clardy R-Mich. came to the defense of J. B. Matthews, who resigned as executive director of the (Senate Investigating subcommittee because of a furor over a Matthews article on Protestant clergymen and Communism. Clardy called Matthews’ critics “perverters of fact" and “opposers of all who expose Communists and Commun- , ism.” H : .• District Picnic Os Rural Youth Sunday Adams county rural ' youthers will attend the district picnic Sunday at Lake Blue Water.
