OPA Ceiling Price On Hay $20 Ton Buyers and sellers of alfalfa have been requested to observe the OPA ceiling price of $20 per ton for hay in the stack. "An appeal is being made to the patriotism of farmers," said Mark H. Greene, OPA district price executive, "to sell their hay at the ceiling price, while there Is a need for this feed. Some farm-, ers, it is reported, are holding their hay for higher prices. There will be no higher price. After the Department of Agriculture had declared the price of $19.85 to equal 110 per cent of parity, OPA placed the ceiling at $20 a ton in the stack to check the inflation ary movement of this commodity." An intensive investigation to check violations of the ceiling price set to control sales of alfalfa al-falfa hay has been started by the OPA, Mr. Greene said. "It is re ported that some farmers are selling sell-ing baled alfalfa hay as high as $38 per ton."

Juvenile Delinquency Increase Here Moot Question Declare Officials Whether juvenile delinquency Is increasing or not Is a difficult question to answer according to Roy Passey, Mrs. Theora Marcil, and Willis E. Bean, Juvenile court officers who compiled a report covering nine counties in Utah's third juvenile court district for the month of November, although the total number of cases handled by the court and the probation officers shows an upward trend as compared to a recent yearly report. re-port. Delinquency Is often a matter of uncovering, it, they declare, and the opening of school in the fall of the year always uncovers an additional list of cases, who otherwise other-wise might continue delinquent, but unnoticed. School officials are most helpful in cooperating with the juvenile officers, they declare. November report shows SO boys and one girl involved in traffic violations, 36 boys and 17 girls in truancy, ZI boys and one girl in stealing, 20 boys in acts of carelessness care-lessness and mischief, seven boys and eight girls who ran ' away from home; four boys and three girls being cared for as dependent and neglected children two boys and three girls who were ungov- ernaoie, two gins involved in sex offences, and three boys in burglary. Totals for the month of all cases handled In nine counties reached 202 of which 22 are on parole, 98 were recognized officially, official-ly, and 82 unofficially. December report so far is under that of November, bu. the Juven ile court officials do not take much hope that this really means a decrease In delinquency, as so many factors affect the actual pprehending of juvenile cases. During November 175 boys and 49 girls were brought up for investigation,, in-vestigation,, whereas 129 boys and 24 girls were disposed of by the court, the additional cases handl ed being ''carry-overs" from the previous month. t Commission Votes Budget Approval Neckerchiefs of sailors were de signed to be used as slings or tourniquets for battle injuries.

"Such a change would take away the finer points of the game," ays Pat Kennedy, fore most eastern official. David H. Walsh, supervisor of officials in the New York metropolitan metro-politan area, would have a lane close to the basket, in which skyscrapers sky-scrapers would be required to stand. This would necessitate a ruling on how tall a fellow would have to be. A chap of six feet Six or more no doubt would be classed as a superdreadnaught. Kennedy agrees that the Empire State Building should be kept a certain distance away from direct ly underneath the basket.
