Plans for the reorganization of Boy Scout troop 4, sponsored by the Joplin Knights of Pythias, were made at a meeting of the troop committee, composed of E.

L. Lewis, chairman; James Morgan, secretary; Fred Thorpe, thrift chairman; William Snidow, advancement chairman and Don Beisner, activity chairman. Plans also were made for a hike and outdoor meal May 20. There are 16 boys in the troop with Jack Owens, scoutmaster, and Kenneth Russell, assistant. Washington, May UP) UNRRA Director Fiorello La Guardia proposed today still darker bread and no pastry for all Americans and suggested that farmers be "required" to market their wheat.

The international relief chief shied away from urging outright "seizure" of wheat on the farms. La Guardia recommended that millers be compelled to extract 90 per cent of the wheat kernel in manufacturing flour. The government now requires 80 per cent, compared with 72 before the world food shortage became severe and 85 per cent suggested by Stabilization Director Chester Bowles. As for no pastry, the chunky UNRRA chief declared: "I'm for that. We could all save enough to buy ourselves smaller girdles." As La Guardia was advancing his ideas as a means of assuring more food for famine areas abroad, agriculture department officials were uneasily eyeing prospects of a six-week shutdown of flour mills.

And they were uncertain whether flour stocks are big enough to tide the country over until the new wheat crop starts coming on the market in July. Secretary Anderson is known to be considering the possibility of diverting to the mills some wheat bought by the government for shipment overseas. While that would keep the mills grinding it, it" would not necessarily increase flour for home consumption, since the finished products still might be exported. The plight of the mills results from the fact that' they were required on May 1 to cut wheat stocks to a 21-day supply. Many have been unable to get wheat since because they can offer only the ceiling price for it while the government will pay farmers a bonus of 30 cents a bushel over the ceiling to obtain wheat to meet foreign commitments.

Caught in the squeeze, some millers already have quit operations. Along with this development, the house agriculture committee arranged to begin tomorrow a thorough investigation of both the domestic and world food conditions. And from the weather bureau came reports that insects, diseases and bad weather continue to beset the winter wheat crop. At his news conference, La Guardia praised the objectives set forth in the report on world food conditions submitted to President Truman by former President Herbert Hoover. While goals for April and May will not be mefc, La Guardia was more hopeful for June.

SEC. VINSON SEES TWO ECONOMIC BLOCS Admits Loan to Britain May English-Speaking Against Russia. Washington, May retary of the Treasury Vinson ceded today that the $3,750,000,000 American loan to Britain is likely to range the two English-speaking powers against Russia in two posing economic blocs. He continued, however, that such a result is greatly preferable to what he pictured as the alternative --three such conflicting groups centering: around the United States, tha United Kingdom and the Soviet Union. The tall, gray cabinet member was led into a discussion of possibly economic conflict with Russia as he appeared on Capitol Hill to plead again for congressional approval ol the loan agreement.

He said it not only would aid Britain, but facilitate world commerce and help maintain world peace.
