Consequently the :association vice president, William Wise, Cass county commissioner, took control of the meeting and appointed a new com- _ mittee ‘to get its bill into the legislature, This group composed of Mr. Wise, Fred Bills, Henry county commis-
_ commissioner, came ‘to Indianapolis yesterday and got Rep. C. Edwin Moseley (R. Peru) to introfuce the measure. No Increase Since 1932 It provides that the money collected shall be divided between the state and the counties on the basis 6f road mileage maintained by each. The state maintains approximately 10,000 of ‘Indiana’s ‘82,000 miles of roads. :
The ‘highway departmient’s two eent increase bill was before the G. O. P. policy committee ‘for several hours this week yet no .decision was reached by that group. It was finally ‘introduced a few minUtes ‘before the close of the session yesterday under the assumption that ft could ‘be chamged later by the policy committee. The county commissioners are growing ever louder in their plea for more money. They point :out they have received mo increase for highway maintenance since 1932 and that present gas tax allocations are grossly. inadequate, They also claimed: that because of state highway department specifica-~ tions for road repair they nad received no federal assistance.

U. S. and ‘Millers Compete in Bidding
' CHICAGO, Feb. 8 (U.P.).—~Wheat prices were at near record highs today. They were expected ‘to go even higher as the result .of an unprecedented “war for mwheat” purchases between the government and the nation’s millers. March futures wheat prices ‘In Chicago and Kansas City reached the highest points yesterday since 1920. In Kansas City, March futures brought $2.12% per bushel and in Chicago, $220%. Hard cash wheat also set a 27-year high in Chicago, selling for $2.25 per bushel. No. 2 red wheat sold on the cash market yesterday at $2.36. . The price trend was sharpened with news of severe weather, Chicago grain experts, however, said the bidding war between public and private buyers was -the principal reason for the upward price spiral. “We never have had a situation where there has been such potential buying power behind the market,” said a spokesman for the Chicago board of trade, Expect More increase Further increases were expected as the result of two government an-
nouncements made in Washington Thursday. UNRRA said it was taking steps to transfer $60 million of its unspent funds to the, gevernment’'s food purchasing organization, and President Truman said he planned to ask congress for an ad. ditional $350-450 million to buy grain for ‘foreign countries, Chicago crop forecasters and price analysts said the announcements would make the fight for wheat even more bitter. They said millers and government agents had ‘been outbidding eack other con{sistently for the past few months tand probably ‘would coniiaue to do ‘50,

Plot to Kill Stalin Nipped By War's End
LONDON, Feb. 8 (U.'P.).—The air ministry disclosed last night without revealing details ‘that the sudden end of the war in Eurgpe nipped a daring Luftwaffe plot to assassinate Generalissimo Josef Stalin, The Luftwaffe also planned to drop an army of agents and sahoteurs in the United States and Arabia. This, presumably, would follow the same general type of operational plan which would have been used to assassinate Mr. Stalin. However, Germany’s surrender came. too soon.
No other details of the plans were announced. The air ministry said that full particulars of each scheme had been furnished the Russian, American and Arabian governments. The announcement said ‘the plans were disclosed during questioning of Nazi: Colonel . Baumbach, the 6-foot 6-inch air ace who commanded Luftwaffe special service units. The air ministry said all of Baumbach’s statements had been substantiated by Nazi records.

Marshall Lists
Universal Training and. Radio Are Top Jobs
By R. H. SHACKFORD United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Feb. 8. — ‘Secretary of State George C. Marshall challenged congress today en two touchy - subjects—government broadcasting abroad and universal military training at home. At his first press conference, he listed both as “musts” if he is to direct a strong U. 8..foregin policy. He made the statement, knowing that congress had wejected military training and shown little inclination to continue the government broadcasting program. “Unless we have universal military training we will not have any real positive military power to: back up .our foreign policy,” Mr. Marshall said. And supporting his request for government broadcasting, he said, “To me it is very essential that we try to cover the earth with truth in the midst of this riot of propaganda.” No Cut in Armaments Mr. Marshall made a third point which drew cheers on: Capitol Hill —there can be no disarmament or reduction of armaments, including the atomic bomb, until the peace

Strong persuasion also will be necessary if he is to win congressional backing for his plan to keep the government in the. broadcasting business abroad. Congress has continued that war-born project this Jong only on urgent pleadings by My. Marshalls predecessor, Jamies ¥. Byres. Wants Truth on Air Mr. ‘Marshall ‘was ‘emphatic in stating that government. broadcast~ ing must continue. Referring specifically to propaganda, much of which in the Russian sphere is directed against the ‘United Stites, he said: “Somewhere truth has to prevail. We should be establishing slowly but s'eéadily a credit before the world for pure accurate statements. “The returns won't be immediate.
