G. Farben chemical industry, is bwng ripped apart and eliminated forever as a threat to peace. Col. Edwin Pillsbury, U. S.

army supervisor of the huge organization, revealed thai three- point program has been started to dispose oC I. G. Farbemnduslrio. Certain plants -and machinery owned by the firm will be- made a a i a for use by the Allied nations as part of Germany's war leparalions. Those plants which are considered for Allied use will be destroyed and certain production units be de-centralized and converted to peacetime manufacturing.

The management will be changed in accordance i a "trust- busting" plan aimed at eliminating the industrialists who were Germany's biggest war lords. Sumo I'huils Undamaged By Bombs iviost ol the 3U 1'urben plants in the American "occupation were undamaged by bombs or ur- iiilery lire, although some other company factories in the French, British and Russian zones were almost totally demolished, Pills- oury said. He was unable tu say whether Allied bombers had deliberately spared the sprawling Farben buildings in where S. army headquarters for the European theater art; ROW established, lie pointed- out, however, that the Frankfurt plants housed no actual war production machinery and were principally an administrative center. The Farben roganization at its World War II peak employed 400,000 men and women workers in its reich war machine, and the total, value of its industries throughout Germany was eslirna.t- ed at close to reichs- nvir.ks at pre-war values.) That sum represented' only the worth of the industries owned directly by the Farben works, and did not include the many government-owned plants operated by the Farben Officers Detained Most of the industry's high, officials have been placed in detention centers pending action against them by the Allied war crimes commission.

Dr. Herman Schmidt, ex-president of the combine, is being held by American authorities and it is considered likely that he will be tried with other top Nazi war criminals at Nuernberg.

28--(UP)-The government told Americans today that "new automobiles probably won't cost any more than 1942 models. These may even cost a little i-sss. Automobile manufacturers were formerly permitted to add certain special charges to their 1942 prices' to cover certain costs caused by rationing. These special charges won't be allowed under the Office of Price administration's new price formula for cars made during the reconversion period. The formula was announced last night by OPA Chief.

Chester Bowies. provides for auto makers to compute their own price ceilings on the basis ot their 1941 cost of production plus wartime increases in labor and a i a costs plus "a normal pcEicetime margin of profit." The profit may be either the manufacturer's own 1936-39 pro- tit or one-half the automobile industry's average for that period. Manufacturers were given the formula in Detroit and aru now figuring their own individual ceilings, OPA said. When they arc ready they must be submitted to the OPA for approval. Bowles did not guarantee a the new prices would represent no advance over 1942 car prices but said it seemed "most unlikely" that they would.

Tamaki saluted us newsmen and said he was surprised at Japan's surrender. He had thought the empire was winning the war.

When lie asked him what he thought about the U. S. fleet, which the Japanese warlords claimed to have sunk, he and said: "I don't care about war no more." He formerly for ten years, was a merchant marine sailor on the Yokohama San Francisco More recently, he commanded a coastal pilot boat sunk recently by American planes while traveling, back to the Yokosuka base.

14-. knots. It was an anxious, tricky i the long, narrow point of Sagami peninsula and into the ITraga straits, the narrow bottleneck, entrance to Tokyo bay. The Place For Trouble This- would have been the place if there was to be any--where Japanese hotheads might have made trouble. But theue was none.

On the craggqd headlands at the entrance to the strait fluttered, liny white flags. They marked the positions of the' 116 major caliber guns now neutralized that make this probably the most heavily fortified harbor entrance in the world. Beside the guns we caught glimpses now and then pillboxes. But no a were to be seen. Perhaps they had gone underground when they sighted our carrier planes on patrol- overhead.

Our pilot said American and Japanese minesweepers had cleared a narrow channel through the straits of all mines. But he added that; other mines still infested either side of that treacherous pathway. Li reported' that one arid perhaps two mines were swept "up two minesweepers that led oiur procession. Then, we were, through the straits and Tokyo bay opened before us. Peaii Harbor was avenged.

SURPLUS WAR PROPERTY IS PILING UP NOW Washington, Aug. 28--(UP) -W i war property piling up "in staggering quantities," the agency created lo dispose of it complained today that it was being hampered by statutory "social or economic objectives." The surplus property, in a letter to the house committee on executive expenditures, asked congress to place its operations under a single administrator and to reconsider just how much long- range social objectives should govern disposal policies.

The letler, signed by Board Chairman W. Stuart Symington, said provisions ot the present surplus disposal law "may create confusion and may make it difficult to dispose of surplus property speedily and on business principles." "The i i i provisions of the act were intended lo achieve social or 1 objectives that are laudible," the board said, "in instances, however, it may not be possible to comply with these provisions of the act and at the same time to dispose of surplus property so as to create immediate opportunities tor employment." A single administrator, as proposed by President Truman would make possible the decisive administrative action necessary to deal promply and i i with large amounts o.t property being declared surplus, the board said. --Advertising- pays, GRAIN RECEIPTS TODAY ARE 130JMILL10N BUSHELS Buffalo, -kug. receipts in Buffalo since the opening of the navigation season stood today at ajpproximateJy 130,06.9,000 more than was reported for the same period lust year and 56,000,0.0.0 bushels greater than in 1943.
