Meat, Dairy Industries Voice Criticism Of New OPA Plans J mm WUMi rn WASHINGTON, April 16 (U.R) The meat and dairy industries voiced loud criticism today of the latest government programs to put more meat and butter on the nation's store shelves. The new regulations, Issued yesterday, called for a new livestock control system and increased federal subsidies to .step up dairy production without permitting higher retail re-tail prices for butter, milk nd cheese. - : The ' American Meat Institute said current meat shortages could not be corrected by "new orders, piled on top of present unworkable unwork-able regulations." It said black New Well in Orem Boosts Water Supply A huge well, which may practically prac-tically double Orem city's in adequate culinary water supply, has been completed. City Council' man J. G. Stratton, in charge of waterwork and sewers, announced today. Over a 15-hour test period of pumping, the well averaged 600 gallons or one and one-fourth second feet of clear, cold water per minute, Mr. Stratton said. Since the present culinary sup P ply is only approximately one and one-half second feet, the new well is expected to prove a life saver during the crucial period between now and July when the flow from the Alta ditch and the springs is at its lowest. y The new water wiU be turned into the city mains immediately, . it was indicated. .Mr. Stratton said that if the people will adhere to the regulations and conserve water, the service should be greatly improved over last year. He added, . however, that - the , city will go on improving its waterworks and purchasing additional ad-ditional water right to provide for Orem's future growth. - ' Driving of the new well by the water committee at the suggestion sug-gestion of Mayor J. W. Gillman, -has been in progress for the past fK two months. It is located at Eighth North and Fourth East. A 12-inch pipe was extended for 300 feet below the surface, and a 10-inch pipe from that point on to a toUl depth of 468 feet t The water rises 248 feet in the pipe, from which point it must be pumped. Indications are that the underground supply is great, as the stream has been continuous since pumping began, Mr. Stratton Strat-ton said. market operators would pay no attention to the program. The Dairy Industry association, representing many dairy producers produc-ers and processors, said the new dairy program was only a 'stop gap which would offer the farm ef no encouragement. The meat order, in effect, restored the so-called wartime war-time quota system. It was designed to - permit each slaughterer to butcher the same-proportion -of livestock as in 1844. The new dairy program will tend to lower the quality, and per haps quantity of ice cream, how ever, since it limits the amount of butter fats that can be used for that purpose. It also prohibits the manufacture of whipping cream. The order replaces previous ac tions taken by OPA to provide dairy price relief on a local basis. Bowles said it would make it un necessary for OPA to grant addi tional increases at local levels. Specifically, the order: 1. Increases milk subsidy prices 20 cents per hundred pounds over prices for the same period of 1945, effective May 1. This will be accomplished by holding the scheduled 35 cents per hundred pounds seasonal reduction to 15 cents. 2. Increases subsidy payments on farm-separated cream five cents a pound over the same date last year by holding the seasonal reduction to two cents instead of seven. 3. Provides an additional increase in-crease of 20 cents per hundred pounds on milk and five cents a pound on butterfat, effective July 1. Whether this will result in re- jtail price increases depends on whether congress continues the subsidy program in 1946-47. 4. Restores wartime limits on butterfat in ice cream manufacture manufac-ture in an effort to divert cream to the manufacture of butter. Much of the available cream supply sup-ply has been going into more profitable dairy products such as ice cream and whipping cream rather than butter.

LOWBY United Press Staff Correspondent BUTTE, Mont., April 16 (U.R) Patrol cars loaded with special deputies roved the streets o the nations copper mining capital today and au thorities believed they had brought under control the prowling mobs which have damaged homes and terrorized residents in an outbreak of labor violence. Sheriff Al McLeod, acting un der the authorization of the Silver Bow county commission, mobil ized 100 special deputies to patrol the streets and prevent further disorders by mobs which have wrecked 14 homes since Saturday "to show their sympathy for striking miners. "I believe we've got them under control now," McLeod said. At noon today, the sheriff re iterated that the situation was quieting down. He spurned a sug gestion that federal troops be sent to Butte, saying they were not heeded. .In Helena, Montana Gov. Sam C. Ford said he had no intention of asking for aid from federal armed forces. Montana's national guard is still in federal service and not available for duty at Butte, where the guard served during a violent strike in 1914. (However, Ford cancelled a proposed trip to a Missouri river basin conference at Des Moines, la., explaining he tlid not feel he should leave the state until the Butte Situation became more settled.) However, new threats of violence vio-lence were received in anonymous anony-mous telephone calls to the homes of non-strikers warning them to "get out or else," McLeod Faid. Several families and their possessions pos-sessions were removed by police from the threatened homes last night for "security reasons." Homes wrecked thus far have belonged to mine fore-;men fore-;men and clerks who did not participate in the strike called last Tuesday against the Anaconda Ana-conda Copper Mining Co. by the CIO Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers union.

Senate Passes Far-Reaching Housing Plan Measure Intended To Encourage Building Of 15,000,000 Homes WASHINGTON, April 16 (U.R) The most far-reaching housing program ever considered con-sidered by congress went to the house today with overwhelming over-whelming senate approval. The measure, passed by the senate on a voice vote, was intended to encourage construction construc-tion of 15,000,000 new farm and city homes in the next 10 years. For the first time, the middle-class middle-class third of American families would get all-put federal aid in building their homes. The measure meas-ure would authorize federal housing hous-ing administration loans for home construction, with the builders putting up only five per cent as a down payment. The rest would be paid out in 32 years. The measure embodies a sweeping slum-clearance program pro-gram with the ultimate goal of "a decent home and living liv-ing environment for every American family." The slum-clearance and low-rent low-rent public and rural housing programs would cost the federal government $38,000,000 the first year, with the annual cost increasing in-creasing to $143,000,000 after the first six years.

Franco Tightens Up On Germans LONDON, April 16 (U.R) The Franco regime today announced strict financial controls on German Ger-man firms operating on Spanish soil, apparently to appease United Nations criticism, as London Communists claimed that German atomic scientists are working in a village five miles from Bilbao.

SHACKFORD United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, April 16 (U.R) United Nations Secretary General Trygve Lie today forced a surprise postponement of a security council showndown with Russia on the Iranian case by suggesting that the Anglo-American demand for keeping Iran on the agenda might be illegal. After a short morning session, the council adjourned until 3 p.m., tomorrow to begin debate on Poland's charges against Franco Spain. It deferred until after Thursday a vote on the Iranian case to give Major League Chinese Reds Tighten Grip On Changchun CHUNGKING, April 16 (U.R) Chinese Communists troops smashed into Chang chun yesterday and engaged a handful of Nationalist troops in bitter house-to-house fighting, the Central new agency reported today. A spokesman for the na tional military council said, how ever, that a peace preservation corps and the small government force was still holding the Man churian capital late today. The Central news dispatch, timed at 10 a.m. April 15 said Communist troops entered the city from many directions. Heavy machinegun and rifle fire is heard constantly In the city streets, the dispatch said. The Central Daily News reported re-ported that the Communist forces were within a half mile .of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek's northeastern headquarters and that heavy artillery duels rocked the ancient city. The Chinese First army, af ter smashing Communist forces in bitter fighting around Szeping-kai, Szeping-kai, was reported driving north from that city in an attempt to relieve the besieged Changchun garrison. They were meeting fairly fair-ly stiff opposition, however. Observers here pointed out that Changchun was held by a force of only 12,000 government peace preservation troops, plus a few thousand Nationalist troops flown In some months ago. They were up against a Communist army of some 30,000 which had the city surrounded. They said the city's fall might be expected momentarily. The Communists captured three airfields in the vicinity of Changchun Chang-chun soon after they launched their attack Sunday as Russian occcupation forces were withdrawing.

Japan, April 16 (U.R) Nine more axis submarines, including in-cluding an uncompleted 4,000 ton super underseas craft of Japa nese design, were sunk at sea off this former naval base today by joint army-navy demolition teams. Two of the subs were of Ger man and Italian make.

Army scientists tested the uranium uran-ium found aboard the subs and said it had no value. its experts a chance to study and report on Lie's unexpected opin ion which appeared to side with the Soviet view. The surprise turn of events on the tangled Iranian ease came as the United States and Britain, supported by five other council members, were ready to vote down the Russian Rus-sian demand now supported by Iran to drop the Iranian case immediately. The council's decision came as an anticlimax to one of the angriest angri-est and bitterest Big Three de bates since the council moved to the new world. U. S. Delegate Ed ward R. Stettinius, Jr., and Soviet Delegate Andrei A. Gromyko prolonged that debate a- little this morning. Stettinius flatly repudiated Gromyko's charge that the.. US. Was' acting in bad faith and indirectly in-directly accused Russia of using her troops in Iran to force a last-minute last-minute reversal .of that country's position. Gromyko rejoined that Stettinius Stettin-ius still was sacrificing logic "to inflate and prolong the Iranian dispute." But most of the session was devoted de-voted to discussion of Lie's memorandum. mem-orandum. The Soviet block immediately im-mediately grabbed it as the basis for. postponement of a vote on Russia's demand for dropping Iran a vote on which the Rus sians faced certain defeat. The Anglo-American bloc ac cepted the move to postpone a vote until after the council's ex perts had studied Lie's opinion. But the council decided to proceed with its agenda the Spanish issue is-sue tomorrow. Before adjournment, there was a flurry of debate indicating indi-cating that the council members mem-bers may disagree on how much weight to place on Lie's legal opinion. Dr. Quo Tai-Chi of China, serving serv-ing the last day of his term as council president, insisted Lie was only the "chief administrative officer" and that the council must make its decisions regardless of the secretary geenral's observations. observa-tions.

Truman Tru-man sent a fast ball spearing into, a spanking breeze today and the major league baseball, season bigger and better after four lean war, years was on its way. Mr. Truman, in his debut as an opening-day "pitcher," became the first president to heave the ceremonial first pitch left-hand ed. For a while, however, it ap peared that the ambidextrous chief executive would cross up the experts and throw right- handed. He momentarily foundled the ball with his right hand as if undecided un-decided whether he would be a southpaw as advertised or pitch from the starboard. Then he switched over and let fly with his left hand. Mr. Truman, who has had considerable experience with strikes, threw one himself. The coveted toss was gathered gath-ered in by utility infielder Andy Gilbert of the Boston Red Sox. A standing-room-only crowd of 32,000 including most of the bigwigs big-wigs of the Washington political and military scene, jammed bunt tag-decked Griffith stadium to see the president do his stuff, It was topcoat weather.

With his ceremonial first pitch, Mr. Truman carried forward a presidential tradition begun by William Howard Taft in 1910.
