STRAUSS SAYS

“A BIT

OF FLUFF” By M. L. D.

Ohe blistering June evening, my bus kept passing cars, manned by gentlemen office workers, homeward bound.

‘With each block that separated them from downtown, the scorching drivers kept shedding outer garments, till one brave soul (around 46th Street) had peeled to his manly torso!

This primitive urge is understandable, but not recommended. Far better, is the modern custom of wearing a “sport shirt,” in less formal moments. These refreshing

nts do away with ties, and

garme their ability to be worn outside a belt gives every breeze the chance of reaching up around the midsection to coo] an overheated chassis!

Moreover, sport shirts (bless their button!) are colorful. No one need be repressed in such a costume. If a gent feels bullish, he can, by gosh, wear red. Even a sudden yen to be decorated with palms and Petty girlsis easily satisfied. Let him take his pick.

Freedom, thy name is sports shirt! And their dwelling place is Strauss on the main floor, where they abound in plenty! The best makes, fabrics, colors and patterns are all represented at the Man's Store,

Seek Huge Sugar Supply in Java

May Permit End Of U. S. Rationing

WASHINGTON, June 5 (U. P). -—Prospects for an early end of sugar rationing depend to some degree on the outcome of a search| for an estimated one million tons of sugar hidden in Java uring the War.

Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson told a senate banking subcommittee yesterday it might be possible to end rationing before the legal deadline on Oct. 31. He said the evidence on which a decision must be based would be before him soon; Agriculture department officials! believed the decision would be made by the end of June. Before acting, they said, Mr. Anderson must know three things: ONE: How much more sugar can be squeezed out of Cuban cane Crops. TWO: How much more sugar can be turned over to this country by countries . not consuming all of their allocation from the world pool. The international emergency food council meets here next week and may have an answer then. THREE: How much sugar can be salvaged from supplies ‘hidden in Java, reportedly some 1,000,000 tons. An agriculture department official has been sent to Java and his reports may be available late this month. Senator Joseph R. McCarthy (R. Wis.) author of a bill for immediate decontrol of sugar, said there was no longer any reason to continue rationing “even for 10 minutes.” It ‘appeared, however, that his bill would die in the banking committee

To prove his point he took a Times reporter and photographer to a

“While our collectors try to be careful,” -he-said, “they can't help but spill some of the contents onto the alley in dumping the cans into the trucks.” Fr. Frazier said this situation is

jone of the worst breeders of flies

and insects, for the spilled contents then are left to lay in the alley.

Garbage cans, especially, should always have lids tightly fitted, the sanitation superintendent said, but he complained that too many housewives either leave the lids ajar or use none at all

Fly Menace Strong Mr. Frazier warned housewives not to be mistaken that trash cans don't breed flies. He said that corn husks thrown in the” trash cans and other refuse are breeders of flies. He said the fly menace is strong in-most trash cans, dl The Times’ anti-fly campaign would be aided immeasurably, Mr Frazier said, if all housewives would provide proper receptacles for trash as well as for garbage. He recommended receptacles with lids for both garbage and trash. Mr. Frazier pointed out that the city ordinance required households to use garbage containers made of metal and having tightly-fitting lids. He said 12 gallons was the regulation on maximum capacity, Ordinance Is Cited For trash, he said, the ordinance requires a metal container with a lid. Trash cans may hold as much as 20 gallons. In line with the recommendations of Dr. Frank Thone in The Times’ copyrighted Science Service articles, Mr, Frazier recommended spraying DDT outside the cans. “Regardless of whether DDT is used or not,” he asked, always be

‘(sure that both garbage and trash

cans are washed regularly and kept | clean at all tires.”

Rain Delays Planting, Deadline Near

By EARL RICHERT

its worst crop disaster since the drought of 1936. Corn, America’s / greatest grain

Unless drying, sunny weather entheir fields within the next week or

June 7 is considered the final

frost. June 15 is regarded as the absolute deadline in most of the corn belt. Weatherman Gloomy The U. 8. weather bureau is not optimistic. The kind of weather that produces scattered thunder showers is forecast for most of the corn belt, and that won't help to dry fields.

“The corn situation is critical,” said an agriculture ‘department expert. “If, however, it does dry off so our farmers can get in the fields, we can be thankful for tractors. ‘The farmers will work day and night planting thousands of acres. If they had to use horssé, it would be too late now because they couldn’t plant enough in the time remaining.” On the basis of expected acreage planted and a normal yield, the agriculture department had predicted another "three-billion-bushel corn crop this year. Last year was the record-breaker, 3.3 billion bushels being produced. The first oficial 1947 corn forecast will be issued July 10. Would Keep Meat High Only about 20 per cent of they corn produced in this country goes into commercial uses, the rest being used for livestock feed.

Little is exported and thus a short corn crop would affect the feed-Europe program only insofar as it diverted other grains, chiefly wheat, for livestock feed,

It is doubtful, however, that farmers could afford to use wheat as feed because of its high price. Agriculture officials say a short corn crop would keep meat prices higher and also might cause farmers to cut down on fall pig production, which has been scheduled for a 15 per cent increase, Fruit Crop Hurt Because of the weather, farmers in the “breadbasket” states have planted much less oats and spring barley than they had planned. They expected to plant this extra acreage in corn. Vegetables and fruits have been damaged some. In Michigan, straberry plants were flattened by downpours and cherry blossoms were ruined. #A frost in early May damaged the apple and peach crop in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. The record-breaking winter crop

is regarded as “safe.” Agriculture officials say it is. too far along to be damaged much by rust which now is being reported from some areas as a result of heavy rains. Continued heavy rains, however, would beat down the ripened crop and keep some of it from being harvested. Agriculture department officials say that under the law of averages the U. 8. is due for some crop trouble. The country as a whole has had acre, since 1937, and the last seven good crops, judged by yields per years hive been exceptionally good.
