The freezing order which was laid on by the Executive Board during April cut off a $400,000 loan from the General Fund to the Highway department, which was to have been paid back out of the gas receipts. ‘This action will delay the program of the Highway department, but will not cancel it nor take it off a sound financial basis, as was pointed out in the Chamber recom- mendation. - e, - When you pay tor QUALITY why not get the FINEST—Buy FLOR- SHEIM SHOES at Graves.

British troops will search farmlands for hidden stocks which, ants said, hoarded for diver- sion into black market channels. eaching Berlin from the Soviet zone indicated that the Rus- sians, too, were experiencing diffi- culty meeting ration scales in east- ern Germany, although the situa- tion there was believed to be less acute. In Washington, Secretary oi War Robert Patterson said more than 400,000 tons of food would be sent to Germany this month, a similar amount would be sent next month, and “even more” in July. German officials in Stuttgart pro- pesed that the official ration in the British and American zones be cut from 1,550 to 1,130 calories daily per person, and Paul S. Taggert, U. S. food director for Wuerttemberg- Baden said that if the proposal was approved by both military gov- ernments, it would take efiect May 25 for a four-week period. States in both zones are failing to meet the official per capita ration, with deficiencies ranging up to nearly 50 percent, reports to the bi-zonal food agency in Stuttgart show. The possibility of a mass protest strike in Stuttgart next week ap- peared to have faded. Factory workers, reflecting the “ugly mood” noted by American oificials yester- day, had threatened a general strike May 22, but Marcus Schlei- cher, president of the city's trade unions, declared that the workers would allow more time for the sit- uation to be improved. e, EASTERNERS IN Ameng the new gues at the Baranof Hotel are I.
