Robertson, (D-Va) to extend the present defense production act until Apr. 30, 1952. A member, who asked not to be named, said that the committee then started considering section by section an administration bill to broaden the controls and extend them for two years. Robertson originally had suggested a one-year extension but the committee vote, reportedly 103 against, was on a nine-month continuation. Robertson's motion would have extended the present law without amendments.

He had suggested that action to give congress more time to prepare a new law. The present one expires June 30.

Hopes Grow Thaf Beef Famine Will Be Short-Lived Chicago (AP) Another nea normal run of cattle arrived in the nation's midwest livestock markets Thursday. The third consecutiv day'of substantial receipts boostec prospects that the nation's threat ened beef famine may fade to nothing more than a temporary shortage.

Livestock men shipped 13,500 cattle to the nation's 12 niajoi markets, nearly a 50 percent gain over the 12,669 a week ago. It com pared with 18,657 shipped a year ago. This brought receipts for week to date to 126,800, comparec ivith 104,979 week ago and 156,414 a year ago. However, receipts will have to climb considerably above the pre- year before the nation's beef supply returns to normal. The heavier run of cattle to market this week Is o.vpeotcd to improve the retail situation starting lato next week.

The amount of beef the consumer will be able to get next week and thereafter, packer industry spokesmen said, will depend on whether the trend toward normal marketing continues. Cattle shipped to 12 leading markets Wednesday totaled 33,200, ai increase of 50 percent over a week ago and nearly normal with re ceipts a year ago. Major packers in Chicago said they have purchased more cattle this week than they did last week Decause of the increased shipments. They said the bigger ship- nents caused prices of some kinds decline slightly, permitting the jackers to buy the cattle in com- jliance with government price regulations. The beef situation was the subject of discussion by congress, of- ice of price stabilization officials, cattle feeders and packing execu- Price Director Michael V.

Di- Siille, in Denver Wednesday night, said iho increased cuttle shipments was a. sign that cattlemen already "are finding they can operate under tho ceiling and still make profit." He expressed confidence cattlemen will find their own price con- rol answer in increased production and that the average cattleman vill not lose anything by price con- rols.
