The asency said that in mid- May, "workers' families in large '.. cities were paying over 100 per cent more for food than in August 1039: 84 per cent more for cloth- ins and 81 cer cent more for house furnishings." 4-i ; Administration (Continued from Page One) ers urged the house foreign af-- af-- fairs committee to approve a bill authorizing President Truman's ' program for inter-American mili- tary cooperation.

The motion to appropriate the money was , glened by Mayor Mark Anderson and Commission er J. Earl Lewis. Commissioner B. p. Palxreyman was absent. Mayor Andersen said that' Utah's attorney general.

Mr. Young had held that such an appropriation would be illegal il-legal under Utah laws. A written opinion from the attorney at-torney general has been asked: and this has been promised fori an early date, the mayor said The $5000 appropriated by each of the two units, the city and the school district, was the amount set up by a site committee which has been working on the matter for several weeks. A similar quota .was. set for Utah county, while the Alpine, Nebo and Wasatch" school district, which will send students to the vocational school, each has been assessed $3500, it was reported. All members of the county commission were in Salt Lake City today and could not be con tacted regarding their plans for assisting in the purchase. How ever, they previously have indi cated they would make a finan clal contribution and Commis sioner Reed J. Knudsen has been working on the site committee. The vocational school has been operating at the , Utah county fairgrounds the past several years, but must give up this temporary home so that the fair grounds can be used for other purposes. The Utah legislature at its last session appropriated $100,000 for operation of the school for the next two years but made no appropriation for a site.

(Jiawson, 60, a member of the Hyrum city council, was fatally injured some time yesterday aft ernoon in a tractor-plow accident on his farm about three miles southeast of Hyrum, the sheriff's office reported here today. His body was discovered at 9 a. m. this morning by three men who were baling hay in a field two blocks below Clawson's farm. Since the death of his wife last June 1, Clawson had lived alone at his home in Hyrum. The three men who found him reported that the tractor was still running and that it was out of gear. His body was lodged between be-tween the tracks and a steel platform plat-form on which the tool box is placed. The investigating officers reported Clawson's body was bad ly crushed and apparently he died instantly. High May Corn Price Forcetork Prices Upivcrd ' CHICAGO, June 25 - (U.R)The high price of corn on the Chicago board of trade may 'force house wives to pay more than usual for "pork ' chops come next fall, the experts said ' today. Corn, the nation's, basic, crop, rose to an all-time high of more than $2 per bushel on the board of trade yesterday. Housewives may wonder what this has to do with the price they wui pay for center cuts. Live stock producers, market analysts and grain traders explained it this way: - Farmers who produce both corn and hogs will find it more profit able to sell , their corn, instead of feeding it to hogs and. then selling the hogs. Market experts said the ratio Is less favorable for raising hogs than it has been for the last few years. As a result, many fanners are marketing both their corn and hogs to take advantage of the high prices. Hogs have been arriving at the big mid western stockyards in heavy numbers, but the animals themselves are lighter because they were marketed early they have not been fully fattened. Normally, the big movement of hogs to market occurs in Oc tober and continues through January. Jan-uary. But this year they are going go-ing to market early, and livestock producers believe there will not be the usual sharp increase in supply this faU.. Thus, if the heavy demand for pork continues, the price for pork chops may be higher than usual for the fall season. Usually the price is lower in the . fall. Another factor affecting the fall and winter pork supply is this spring's pig crop. The U. S. de partment of agriculture reported that it totaled 53,151,000 pigs. This is 759,000 more than last year, but agriculture experts said it was "disappointing." Many pigs died during the cold, wet spring. Illinois reported its smallest spring pig crop since 1944. Wisconsin's crop increased only 38,000 despite a seven per cent increase in the number of sows that farrowed. The high price of corn also may affect the amount and quality of beef, according to H. M. Conway, market analyst for the National Association of Livestock Producers. Conway said many midwestern farmers will feed their cattle on grass, silage and roughage instead of high-priced corn. He said there would be no reduction in the number of cattle sent to market, however. The record corn prices were attributed by grain brokers to the heavy government purchases for shipment to needy countries, and to the midwestern floods which have cut into the prospects for a bumper corn crop.

J., June 25 (U.R) Fire department officials said today that a three alarm fire was sweeping the steamship Marine Ma-rine Flier tied up at the Erie Railroad's pier 9, Erie Basin.

Price of Corn For July Delivery Hits $2.02 Record CHICAGO, June 25 (UJO The price of corn for delivery in July soared to a new all-time high on the Chicago board of trade today for the second day in a row. The price closed at $2.02 V a bushel, highest for a futures con tract in the board of trade's 99-year 99-year history. Yesterday's all-time high was $2.01. It was the third time in two weeks that the previous hiah set in 1919 had been topped. Grain traders attributed the high price to heavy government purchases for export, and to floods which have destroyed some of the middle west's corn crop..

'Blue Baby' Victims Yield to Surgery BERKELEY, Cal. (U.fD Twenty-one Twenty-one "blue baby" operations have been performed at the University of California medical school in the past two years, Dr. H. Brodie Stephens, thoracic surgeon, reports. re-ports. He said that in six other cases there was no attempt to complete the operation, the condition of the heart and vessels indicating that no improvement could be made. The operation corrects a congenital con-genital defect which prevents a sufficient supply of blood from being pumped from the heart to the lungs and through the body. The resulting weakness often causes invalidism. - The condition sometimes is apparent ap-parent at birth, other times not for five years. Death usually occurs oc-curs in childhood or early youth. Dr. Stephens said results in 15 of the completed operations were classified as excellent, three good. two fair and one poor. One pa tient -whose operation was completed com-pleted died, and three of those, whose operations were not completed com-pleted died.
