Kephart said farmers didn't want to "caught" in the position of promising consumers price next January and nol be able to go through with It.

An analysis of building permits issued municipalities in Pennsylvania shows that the average valuation of a home started in 1939 was $5,032. The valuation average jumped to last year and for the first seven months thU yeaV.

Daniel Rogers, assistant state housing director, emphasized that building costs have shot upward faster than the figures show. He pointed out that the'building permits issued now include many for temporary shelters while those issued Mfore the war were primarily for "solid, well-built" houses. Another Importart factor which Rogers said may be overlooked Is that houses built before the war were on contract basis, with a set price, while present estimates given by, contractors are usually raised before the dwelling is completed. If all factors arc taken into consideration, the $11,000 house being erected now Is only as well built as a J5.000 house before the war, Rogers said.

ATTACKED Jewish Spokesmen See No Useful Purpose In Further Negotiations By R. H. SHACKFORD United Press Correspondent Lake Success, N. Oct. spc-kesmen today denounced as "delaying tactics" suggestions that and the Arabs try again to reach an agreement on Palestine outside the United Nations, They pointed out that time and again during the last 10 years a settlement of the Holy Land problem has been sought in such negotiations and that the whole issue was tossed into the United Nations when the last attempt under British auspices failed in London.

These spokesmen could see no useful purpose in another attempt now except to delay a decision. The formal suggestion for such a conciliation attempt was made by Dr. Hector David Castro 'of El Salvador, and there were reports that the United States which has deliberately heen delaying announcement of its position was informally sounding out the possibilities of another Jewish- Arab conference. Jewish spokesmen denied that they have been approached. There appears to be an overwhelming majority of the Assembly In favor of partition of Palestine between Jewa and Arabs.

But there is likewise almost unanimous agreement that such a decision would have to be imposed by force. Thus, the major question la: "Who will bell the cat?" Now that Britain has announced its Intention to withdraw from Palestine, no other nation wants to take on those onerous duties. And the United, States would be reluctant to assume it even jointly inasmuch as such decision would give" Russia" voice' in that vital Middle Eastern area!

Regardless of political considerations and Soviet Russia's attitude, Clayton told a news conference he believed there could be no economic barrier between eastern Europe and the nttions of western Europe, It waa Clajrton's first news conference since returning from Europe where he spent five months studying economic problems. He said there was very -little surplus of food and raw materials in eastern Europe at present but he was confident that there would be surpluses in the future. Asked whether he thought this lack, of goods in eastern Europe was the chief obstacle to trade between the East and West at present, Clayton replied he thought it was. He did not think the chief obstacle was political. In stating these views, Clayton accepted the theory of the 16 nations which met at Paris and blueprinted their needs under the Marshall Plan.

The western European had reported that their needs were based on the assumption that trsde would be resumed -between the East West, STEEL PLANTS SET POSTWAR RECORD Pittsburgh, Oct. weekly postwar production record of 403,641 tons of steel ingots was set last week by of Carnegie- Illinois Steel Corporation, President C.
