The law, he said, permits a checkoff only for union dues, but the contract calls for a checkoff of initiation fees and union assessments Hartley added that other sections of the contract violate the spirit and intent of the law. Noting that the contract afforded a prime case history of the evils of industry-wid- e he bargaining, said that there was evidence of collusion between the mine operators and the UMW with the intention of violating the law. ). down TAI LS THE Fud Rip AS j 1 1 Both farm assets and farm income have expanded tremendously since tf e outbreak of World War II, according to a late report released by the National Indus, trial Conference board. Total assets Increased about 90 per cent from 53 7 billion dollars at the beginning of 1940 to 101 5 billion dollars six years later. Gross income from agriculture shot up 124 per cent over the same period. That income, plus government payments, totalled about 11 billion dollars in 1940 and only a little less than 25 billion dollars in 1945. Virtually all the gain was registered by income from agriculture. Govwere not ernment changed during the years covered by the report. Cash receipts from farm marketings rose from 8 3 billion dollars in 1940 to a very considerable 20 8 billion in 1945 Real estate was by far the largest item among farm assets, rising from 33 6 billion dollars in 1940 to 56 6 billion in 1946. payments Ju't the It c f tern 72(11 inches to Zj hi l Our Improved i , .vm tone charts directions - mo. - of pattern, 20 ci ' bend your ouli Srwln ( Box 3217 Enclose ( r hi P f , . i . i- , , .

PcgsRelSm. King George VI and Queen Elizabeth cleared the road to royal ro- mance by giving unqualified approval to the match and announcing the engagement in a traditional court circular. Lt. Mountbatten is a second cousin to the king and a great grandson of Queen Victoria. As the husband of Princess Elizabeth, he will be Britains first prince consort since Queen Victorias husband. Prince Albert of He cannot become king, but probably will be given a dukedom shortly before the wedding.
