Half Cent IliVe Expected. While the amount of increases still is in the discussion stage, officials estimated that retail milk prices in certain regions may have to be hiked at least a half cent a quart to offset producers' increased costs fo. labor and feed. If milk goes up a half cent in those areas, retail butter prices probably will have to be increased 6 cents a pound and cheese prices 3 cents throughout the country, dairy price officials predicted.

"The rumor was well known on the island," said A. B. Crawford, Pretoria, who has just returned from Tristan. "The ancestors of the present islanders knew the old pirate Lambert well and knew he had some source of hidden wealth because he often used to disappear into the bush and return with money." The treasure is reputedly worth $8,000,000 and is supposed to be buried between two waterfalls near the settlement.

Grange Also Opposes Tlan. Lewis G.

Hines, A.F.L. legislative representative, contended before the House Military Affairs Committee an additional three months would be sufficient for the serv ices to arrange adequate enlistment programs. He suggested that Congress make its own study of Army manpower needs and not rely upon Army estimates. Hines said he believed the Army would -continue to request that the draft law be kept alive, even after expiration of any new extension, as a builder of sentiment for universal military training. "I don't believe there's anybody capable of giving us a good fight right now," Hines said, advising against too much haste in acting on military-sponsored legislation.

The House committee, which is vote on the extension question Friday, also heard opposition testimony from Fred Bailey, legislative representative of the National Grange.
