TON, Oot. 16 (U. P)—Reaversion Director John W. 8nyir called on business today to raise Wages in order to keep up purchasing power of workers. But at the same, he said labor “must not” ask for too much lest it lead to runaway inflation. Snyder spoke to New England wholesalers and retailers at a meeting on distribution. He stressed two factors bearing "on the wage situation: One, the need to keep up consumer purchasing power to balance the cost of living, and the other the increased profits of business which he _ felt should be shared with labor, Says Projects to Grow Snyder said there were general developments that would tend to Increase profits, He cited the tax reduction legistation ow on its way through congress, tailment of overtime pay, increased productivity of workers and more efficierit technigues de‘veloped during the war. “Wherever possible a share in these savings should be passed on to the workers to keep thelr earn4 and their purchasing power in anc with the. cost of living,” he sald. “I am sure “that employers , . acknowledge the importance of wages In maintaining the erican market. 3 Cites Big Demand ~ “#Labor, on its part, must realize that workers must not press for wage increases beyond what may sonably be granted, otherwise it serve to bring on the very So that would make labor's Shins meaningless, runaway infla-

OF ALUMINUM

Senator Says He'd Rather Sell Plants at Loss.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 (U. P.). —8enator Edward V. Robertson (R. Wyo.) said today he'd rather see the government's surplus aluminum plants sold at a loss than leased on a basis that would “put the government in business.” Robertson is one of a dozen senators from three different committees now holding hearings on the fate of 52 aluminum plants built at a cost of $700,000,000 during the war. They are scattered throughout 21 different states. Surplus Property Administrator W. Stuart Symington was called back before the committee to continue outlining his views. Alcoa Only Buyer He told the senators yesterday that: 1. The only customer who has shown up cash-in-hand waiting to buy any of the plants to date is the Aluminum Co. of America. 2. However, in view of legal dej cisions that Alcoa is a monopoly, |sPA feels duty-bound to sell or lease the plants only to Alcoa competitors. 3. It looks as though the only way the government can induce potential Alcoa competitors to buy or lease aluminum plants is by offering "outright subsidies” as an inducement. Symington explained that SPA is being guided by Atty. Gen. Tom C. Clark's desire that the plants be disposed of in a way that would “encourage competition” in the industry. Alcoa owns or operates 90 per cent of all aluminum production facilities,

construction, servatively at $3,000,000,000. Poland (Danzig), Gdynia, Stettin, Elbing, and Kolberg under the Potsdam ruling, Euse Kwiatkowski, former Polish premier and now head of Polish harbor - reconstruction, estimated it would take at least three years to restore important shipbuilding works and other harbor installations. Ships in England The proposed merchant fleet will be built around 150,000 tons of Polish shipping now in England. This is approximately Poland's pre-war tonnage. Kwiatkowski said it~ was “hoped” this shipping would be returned from English ports. In addition, the Poles counted on about 125,000 tons of former German shipping. Before the war, the Germans had 4,500,000 tons and they still had 2,800,000 tons of shipping when they surrendered. Of this, the Russians are supposed of receive 30 per cent. Under Russian-Polish agreements, Poland should get 15 per cent of all Russian reparations. Facilities Limited Shipbuilding facilities do not hold much promise.

PREDICTS RECORD 1945 FARM INCOME

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16 (U.P) — The agriculture department predicted today that farm income in 1945 will hit a record-breaking peak of $20,400,000,000 despite a break in cash earnings during October and November,

NOW THE British authorities are understood to have broached the subject of fresh limitation, based on pre-war agreement. Any limit on the frequency of the flights would destroy the very basis of the regular post-war trans-At-lantic service envisaged by Amerifean companies. A large, steady flow of passengers is needed to cut costs of travel, Administrative and maintenance costs of a stationary staff and equipment remain fairly fixed, irrespective of the frequency of service. If these costs can be distributed among large numbers of passengers, the cost of a trans-At-lantic ticket can be reduced fo a minimum. If American airlines can

the cost may remain roughly where it is now—$570 for a one-way ticket. The American government is now understood to be taking this matter up officially with the British gov ernment, Meanwhile, practically every newspaper and weekly in England is hammering away at the government for a clear statement of policy and everybody, except the air min-

mand is unmatched by production there will continue to be a threat of infation, he sald.

Local Livestock Market Is Active, Steady Today

The previous record year was 1044 when farm cash receipts amounted to $19,790,000,000, Farm income has climbed steadily since the outbreak of war in 1939, when it amounted only to $7.877,000,000. The department said the expected drop in farm income in October and November would be about 10 per cent below the 1944 levels. The drop in October is expected to amount to about $250,000,000 and in November to about $225,000,000. Officials said this slump was due to a change in the pattern of farm marketings rather than any general decline of prices because of slacki Bl, FED, 1g 2h ened demand.
