Denounces as ‘Damned Lie’
Deports That GOPs Are
Out to ‘Get’ Acheson
WASHINGTON, i/P) — Senator
Wiley (R-Wis) denounced as a
“damned lie” reports that he and
other Republicans are out to “get”
Secretary of State Acheson in the
Mac Arthur inquiry.
Wiley’s outburst came when the
Senate committees met to continue
hearings on the ouster of Gen.
Mac Arthur.
Wiley told his colleagues there
had been “inspired newspaper re
ports” that he and other Republi
cans were conniving on “a strat
egy of getting some administration
witness.”
“I say that is a damned lie,” he
declared.
Although Wiley did not name
Acheson, the reports had been
connected with Republican at- j
tacks on the Secretary of State. '

—Many of Mombasa’s 80,000 na-1
tive population are in panic.
The reason for the panic is a
rumor—British authorities are at
a loss to know how it started.
The rumor: Heavy rains of this
month will overturn the island
on which the town stands, and
everybody will be drowned.

Flash Flood In Kansas
Makes 3*4000 Homeless
<By the Associated Press)
A flash flood swept into Hays,
Kansas, early Tuesday, drowning
three persons and forcing 3,000 to
4,000 to flee their homes. Several
were reported missing.
The flood was caused by a cloud
burst which caused nearby Big
Creek to overflow. The cloudburst
was part of a band of rain which
fell over wide areas in the central
part of the country and appeared
headed for parts of the drought
stricken south.
Hays, a town of 8,000 in north
western Kansas, said the flood
was the worst since 1907. Water
was 15 to 20 feet deep in the
southeast and southwest sections
of the community. Many persons
were trapped on roofs and top
floors of their homes.

Price Rollback On Cattle
Went Into Effect Monday
CHICAGO, (/P)—Cattle receipts
at the nation’s stockyards were
generally light Monday as price
control went into effect on 'live
beef animals.
‘At 12 principal markets, the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
estimated that 41,100 cattle were
received. This compared with
i 77,700 head of cattle last Monday,
and 68,800 for the date a year ago.
The new cattle price order re
quires packers to limit average
prices for their cattle purchases to
a level of 10 per cent below the
average for January.
Cattle merchants said it was too
early to say whether the low re
ceipts resulted from arbitrary ef
fects of the price control order.
The price rollback on live cat
tle is only a part of the gcrvem
| menit’s program designed to bring
I about price reductions of approxi
mately 10 cents a pound for beef
in the butcher shops by Oct. 1.
BELGRADE, {#) — Some city
slickers here managed to get a
rosy, alcoholic glow every day,
free of charge—or rather, at the
expense of their country cousins.
It’s the tradition here that a cus
tomer in public markets is en
titled to a sample before he buys
liquor. And who’s to object if the
prospective customer shakes his
head after the sampling and re
jects the quality?
A reporter on a Belgrade news
paper recently trailed such a samr
pier and found that after eight
samplings, his quarry still hadn’t
made a purchase. This sampler is
very likely at the end of his free
ride, however. His picture was
published in the paper, showing
him in the act, and a complete ex
pose of his racket was included.
