Called Political Refugee, Not War Criminal; Arabs Hail Presence of Leader

CAIRO, June 20 (U, P.) —Premier Ismail Sidky Pasha announced today that the Egyptian cabinet had decided that the grand mufti of Jerusalem, whose presence in Cairo was disclosed a few hoursgearlier, was a political refugee and not a war criminal, The government's attitude toward thw mufti, denounced by Britain as a pro-Fascist enemy and trouble maker, evidently assured him of the sanctuary he sought in Egypt after his flight from Paris. i The mufti had taken “refuge” with King Farouk, and his presence here was hailed by the Arabs. They regarded his appearance in the Middle East* as a sign that he was ready to lead them in their

would jeopardize Anglo-Egyptian treaty negotiations, he replied: “Such considerations wil not affect our stand.” (In London, the foreign office was drafting “representations” of undisclosed nature to Egypt on the subject of the mufti’s presence in Cairo. A spokesman hinted that London might ask Egypt to hand him over as an “enemy” of Britain and a “trouble-maker.”) The mystery of the mufti’s whereabouts since his flight from Paris three weeks ago was solved by an Egyptian communique. . It distlosed that he had emerged. from concealment to lead the Arab fight against the Palestine Zionist movement, Await London Orders The British embassy said it knew nothing about the mufti's presence in Cairo except what had been reported in the press. It said it was

‘gathering all the facts and for-

warding them to London for instructions. The mufti's sudden reappearance in public after he vanished from his home near Paris three weeks ago was expected to have quick political reaction throughout the Middle East. It was believed connected with the fresh outbreak of Jewish violence in Palestine. The mufti was in France during the war and in custody of the French government afterward. He was suspected of being sympathetic toward the axis.

$4.4 billion on other durable goods. From 2,600,000 to 3,500,000 would like to spend $13 to $17.5 billion on houses. These are estimates of the bureau of agricultural economics, which surveyed the nation’s spending and saving habits at the request of the federal reserve board. Supply Still Under Demand ‘This doesn't mean that all of these buying desires will be fulfilled. Production hasn't reached a pace to meet such demands. And the bureau warns that other factors may change the minds of the prospective buyers. First, future income may not be as large as consumers anticipate. Second, prices may not be to the buyers’ liking, or sharp increases in the cost of living may force them to revise their budgets. { “If prices turn out to be higher,” | says the bureau, “some people may plans to buy.” Evidence already is developing that buyers are becoming more cautious, more price conscious, more insistent on quality. Taking notice of new buyer attitudes, some retail-

Liquid Assets Up One now being discussed would

" be a general agreement to retain

traditional rates of markup as price controls are lifted. By persuading the manufacturing and distributive trades to do likewise, advocates of the plan believe prices could be held at levels low enough to sustain high volumes of production and sales. The federal reserve board estimates that liquid asset holdings at the end of 1945 were nearly three times the 1941 figure. The commerce department reports that consumer expenditures for the first three months of 1946 were at the rate of $120 billion annually—double the 1939 rate and 20 per cent higher than a year ago. Retail sales for the first three months of 1946 exceeded those of the entire year of 1933. The first six months of this year are expected to top any 12-month period since 1920, with the exception of 1937. Orders ‘Bunched’

economists make certain reservations. Part of the accumulated demand, says the commerce department, represents a “bunching” of orders over a relatively short period of time. A family which buys a washing machine or refrigerator now, for example, won't be in the market again for some years. “This temporary nature of part of the current and near-future demand must be kept.in mind in appraising the trends of consumer expenditures,” the department points out. The bureau of agricultural economics study emphasized that current incomes, rather than accumulated savings, must form the basis of sustained buying power. This is particularly true, the bureau said, since 60 per cent of liquid savings is concentrated in 10 per cent of the families and only about

Savings May Be Cut Liquid assets held by low and middle-income families are too small to exert any marked inflationary influence, the survey showed. Nevertheless, say the commerce department, the backlog of savings —even though small—is likely to make people spend more freely from their wages, It explains: “Even though individuals decide not to draw on their liquid assets, they still may save less out of current income than pre-war experience would indicate because of the ownership of ready cash.” The accumulated liquid assets of America’s families is estimated at about $80 billion. But the federal reserve survey showed that prospective buyers of homes, cars and other durable goods would dip into it only for $5 to $6.7 even if all their wants could be satisfled this year.
