SENATORS “tTalng the bower Start* On Pip One .—.. ’ w*^>„ Vifc.,.4 of subpoena,” he said, “the committee will, if nec essary, compel the production of records which will expose the blaek market operations in meat, chick ens, butter, sugar and other food p: -ducts.” A five-man subcommittee has *1 assigned to the investigation, virtually the entire senate ag ure committee arranged to sit the opening session, to hear | ony from small meat paek > nator Stewart, (D-Tenn) in d the packers to bring along tii tir balance sheets to prove their contention they OBJ^iaP buy and slaughter livestock at -a -profit un der existing price ceilings. The investigation has four principal aims: l. To determine how much food is on hand in the nation; l. Where it is; 3. What are the prospects for in creased production, and 4. The probable demand. black markets. Stewsrt said he is determined to find out how big a food stockpile Great Britain has and the amounts set aside for lend-lease and UNRRA operation. NO RELIEF The United States Chamber of Commerce, meanwhile, made pub lic a report of its agriculture com mittee contending tha" “present and prospective shortages x x x were readily foreseeable and have developed only because of the perlt ent and till continued production of adequate food supplies.’’ The report said “no quick relief” can be expected. To get "eventual improvement" it suggested these j four steps: “1. Assurance, at the time pro-; duction plans are being made, that j prices will be adequate at the time of marketing. “2. Protection of the farm labor! supply from ill-considered admin istrative policies, and the provi sion of emergency labor when needed. ”3. Production of an adequate1 supply of farm machinery. “4. Centralization and clarifica-; tion of administrative authority I among government agencies.” Starts On Page One Marine Corps, General Rupertus succeeded him as commander of the 1st Marine division and directed i the Marine campaign that result-! ed in the capture of Cape Glou-! cester and three-quarters of New j Britain island Gen.

Hardin of Lily Mill, was recently awarded the Bronie star for heroic achievement in ac tion on the Fifth Army in Italy. Sgt. Hardin is a graduate of Shel by High school and entered serv ice in October, 1942. He was a member of the 91st division team which won the Fifth army baseball championship in 1944. LITTLE DAVID CANNOT FIND HIS TREASURE Little David, the eight-year old negro who is perenially in trouble with the police de partment, Is back in custody a gain and this morning he cre ated quite a furore among the Shelby officers when he told them he had $200 buried under the bus station. The of ficers removed him from jail and took him to the spot where he said he had buried his cash. There was nothing there but an empty paper sack. little David’s eleven-year-old companion who is also charg ed with breaking and entering a number of local places also reported that he had $100 bur ied. Neither could he find his cache. The two little negroes will be given a hearing in juvenile court on the charge of enter ing C. Z. Morgan’s place, the McCoy and PhUbeck filling stations and in addition steal ing two bicycles and one tri cycle. FOURTH Start! On Pace One vanced spring thaw. Creeks were swollen into near rivers and the Germans were making good use of the quagmires, mining dozens of miles of ap proaches to their positions across the flat, river-ribboned country leading to the vital Bratislava gap. Vienna was within 77 miles of the Russian armies and there was much evidence at hand that the Austrian capital was going to be as desperately defended as Ber lin. Hence, the hardest kind of battles can be expected along its approaches. OFFENSIVE The Russians appeared to be developing a many-dlrections* of fensive against the Austrian city. Three drives already were under way — Malinovsky's and Tolbuk hin’s from the south and south east, and Marshal Ivan S. Ko nev’s push southwestward through Moravia. Meanwhile, Premier Stalin an nounced the fall of Heilingenblel, last big east Prussian stronghold southwest of Woenigsberg, as the Russians continued to mop up on their northern flank. The coming week ushers in the annual muddy season along the northern part of the front, but it appears probable that the Red army will mount a big spring of fensive regardless of the weather. Soviet communications lines ex tend for hundreds of miles and cross some of the worst roads in Europe before they get to the far flung front. But during the last two months a great deal of effort has been expended in making them solid. BOMBERS 6 tarts On Page One the Ruhr by thousands of allied planes. The kickoff on the campaign against hidden underground objec tives was made yesterday by a force of 250 British-based Liberators which attacked three buried oil storage dumps between Hamburg and Brunswick. A large number of synthetic oil refineries are located in this re gion and their production was be lieved to have gone into reserve depots for Field Marshal Albert Kesselring’s armies.

Total ginnings from the 1944 erop were estimated at 11,806. 000 bales by the Bureau of the Census. Statistics on the current crop indicate another low grade erop but the average staple length was about as long aa for any pre vious year. There were only very small quantities of the grades strict middling and higher and of the lengths 1 1-8” and longer in this year’s erop. Wet soil is still reported to be delaying erop pre parations which are behind sche dule. Price* for middling U-16" cotton in the 10 spot markets averaged 21.77 cents per pound on Friday, March 23 as compared with 21.71 a week earlier end 2131 cents a year ago.

At nightfall, a security blackout was imposed on moat movements of the British Second army ten mile* beyond the lower Rhine, the same sort of censorship which has prevailed during most transcend ant developments. Cloce te >5 miles of the east bank of the Rhine was in Al lied bands at the time; the river was being crossed vir tually at will. Duisburg, sprawling port of the Ruhr basin, was bypassed as Field Marshal Montgomery's armies moved within grasp of several cit ies which spawned German war material. At last reports, Essen (pop: 600, 000> was 10 miles away; the Duis burg suburbs were entered; Mul heim (.136,805) was five miles dis tant; Oberhausen (191.305* 4; Dortmund (539.000) 29, and Muen ster (143,748. 48. The unverified report reaching supreme headquarters that Frank furt had been entered added that the great Cathedral city, where many German emperors were crowned, was virtually deserted. BREAKTHROUGH The First army to the north ex ploited another breakthrough of decaying German defenses compa rable to the victory at St. Lo, ad vancing three miles nearer Berlin overnight from the Remagen Bonn sector. A dozen villages fell. The American Ninth army ad vanced five miles deeper into the rubble heap of the Ruhr past out flanked Duisburg deepening its lower Rhine front to at least ten miles. The British Second army with at least one famous Canad ian division pushed ten miles east of the Rhine on the flat Waspha lian plains. More than 80 miles of the east Rhine banks were firmly in Allied hands. The final campaign to crush Germany was rolling up massive victories all the way from Wesel to below Frankfurt. Nowhere was the bewildered and severely bled Wehrmacht able to check the mighty tide of more than 1,260,000 6hock troope Gen. Eisen hower had massed on the western front for the final battle. 48 MILE ADVANCE Lt. Gen. George S. Patton’s third army made new crossings of the upper Rhine. He now had seven bridgeheads. The Main river which flows throughout Frankfurt was crossed on a captured bridge at Aachhaffenburg and reached at two other points, eight miles southwest of Frankfurt and two miles east of Mainz. The third army was more than 40 miles beyond the Rhine and running ahead unchecked within 235 miles of Berlin. Germans were surrendering by the thousands. the 21st group in the north, engaging the bulk and best of the 60 or 10 undersized German divisions in the west, has taken more than 19,000 captives. The total third army bag bulged with many more than 309,90 since D day. The first army took 3,147 , yesterday alone. Supreme headquarters said 248, 883 Germans load surrendered since March 1; upwards of 60,000 more had been killed or wounded ser iously. Essen, home of Hermann Goer ing and the seven-times-rebuilt Krupps munitions works, was ten miles or less from surging ninth army columns. EUGENE H. WOOD RITES TUESDAY Brother Mrs. Geo.

Osborne assisting Solicitor L. S Spurling in the prosecution of the docket, the March term of Super ior court was opened here this morning. The first half day was largely spent in hearing submis sions. The trial <*f Ben Dover, charged with receiving stolen tires which was to have been held today was continued until tomor row.
