Of this total, the United States lost 1,554 merchant ships, or 6,- 277,077 deadweight tons. Direct war causes cost 570 ships of 5,- 431,456 deadweight tons. The re- maining 984, involving less than a million tons, were lost in ma- rine casualties resulting from convoy operations, reduced aids to navigation, blackouts and other causes. vessels exceeded 1,000 gross tons. The British Empire lost 2,579! ships, or 11,380,000 tons, between} jSeptember 3, 1939, and May 8, ;1945., The British began the war with 17,500,000 gross tons of ‘shipping, but losses were offset | jto some extent by 4,500,000 tons ‘constructed during the war. In addition to American ard} British ships, other allies lost 1,172 ships, or 5,030,000 tons, and neutral nations lost 490 ships, aggregating 1,420,000 tons. The U-boats were the greatest enemy of Allied shipping;- sink- [5 2,770 ships, aggregating 14,- 550,000 gross tons. Only 68 of the ships were lost in Japanese areas, the great bulk of’ our merchant vessels being sunk by German or Italian. submarines, aircraft and mines. This represented about} two-thirds of the tonnage lost. Total losses do not reflect ships seized by the Nazis in overrun} countries or’ the loss of Army | and Navy auxiliaries; only merchant ships are included. | The British revealed that more} jthan 30,000 of their merchant amen were killed during the| war and 4,000 interned. For the | United States, the casualty list | jincluded 5,579 merchant seamen} dead or missing and 487 pris- oners of war. HEAVY ATTACK UPON The bill to extend the life of} the Office of Price Administra-' jcreates a cost-plus formula for farm products but President Tru- man will reject the amendment. There is also a steady drive to ure provision to guarantee ‘air profits” to business. In ad- dition some organizations desire judicial revjew of OPA regula- tons. The combination of forces} ,seeking to secure ., additional benfits for various groups repre- | sents a dangerous ‘threat to jeffetive price control. Emphasis | is laid upon the gains to be} scored by specific sellers but} nothing is said about the ill) effects of a general price rise,! which will inevitably result from} interference with price regula-| |tions. i | The cost-plus formula for farm! jproducts is described as a “leg- islative fraud” by James G. Pat- ton, President of the National Fagmers Union, and Edward O'-! Neal, President of the American! |Farm Bureau of Federations, jcalls the amendment of Senator “unsound, unworkable and inflationary.” ; James B. Cary, an official of the CIO, also criticizes amend-' ments designed to “knock out practically every price ceiling regulation on the book ing that they constitute to destroy price control.” In addition, a number of con- Temperature data for the 24|sumer, educational, religious and: organizations urge that a, control law be re-> rt that in 1920, effective of labor strong pri !tained.

By acting vigorously to fix. pri prevent speculation and avert economic dislocations due to shortages re- sulting from the war, the organ- + ization has protected the buying | power of every person’s dollar. | Without it, or some similar| control, inflation will occur on a grand scale to be followed by a disastrous deflation which will! repeat the sad experience of the early 20's. | POLICEMAN LOSES BADGE Twin Falls, Idaho.—Night Mar- shal Clyde Pryor recently report- | ed that -a thief had entered his parked car, looted his coat that| [was in the car and stole his/ policeman’s badge, j tom, but ,PARKER 51 fountain pen; —_—_———————— ‘TODAY'S BIRTHDAYS ————— Gen.
