The committee proposed that millers be required to set aside a specific portion of their flour for export. This was one of the steps urged by Herbert H. Lehman, resigned director-general of UNRRA, in criticizing the government program last night. The committee also recommended government orders which would: Require closer trimming of meat to save fat.

F. S.

DEWDNEY Asiociatod Pretn Staff Writer JOHANNESBURG, South Afri- ra, April wild gold rush and feverish speculative buying swept South Africa today with the reported rediscovered secret of a fabulous strike in northwestern Orange Free State. The gold fever was fanned to epidemic proportions by announcement by Western Holdings, a mining firm, of deposits yielding 62.6 ounces of gold per ton of ore in early 52,170 a ton. The usual yield here is a quarter ounce per ton, Secret Had Bean Kept For years the secret had been locked 'in the graves of two forgotten prospectors who were said to have found a rich deposit near the surface close to the little village of Odcndaals-Rust. Speculators rushed to the area near Odcndaals-Rust, while this capital business was virtually at a standstill as many joined a mad to buy property in the neighborhood of the strike. the London stock exchange, Johannesburg gold mining shares soared to record highs.) The area near the village Is filled with people milling about in search for property in scenes re- rniniscent of the wild days of California and the Klondike.

Farmers Selling Land Farmers who once had difficulty scraping a bare living from the unproductive soil now are gather- ins option money running into millions ol pounds. The streets of the little village are crowded with people offering 54,800 or more for tiny plots which once would have sold for S20. The two prospectors who made the discovery ago died without disclosing the exact location. When big mining companies came into the field they sank ore holes over a wide area. But thus far the only strike was the one reported yesterday.

Preliminary observations indicated the new field might accom- odate 10 mines. But completion of shafts will require years of development. KFYO Tune In 1340 Kc. Avglancho-Journal Station By VIRGINIA VAN DER VEER Prmi Staff Wriier WASHINGTON, April all up in the air. what Mrs.

Truman will wear Easier Sunday. The first lady, it seems, will take a quick gander at the weather, rummage in the closet and emerge to lead the nation's fashion any old things that catch her eye. They won't be dress nor coat. That's definite. The same applies to daughter Margaret.

Thus is answered the number one about mid- White House feminine news conferences. Breathless fashion writers began early to inquire in tones ot Mrs. James Helm, social secretary: "And what will Mrs. Truman and Margaret wear on Easter? Alter many persistent tries, the answer finally came: The first! lady and her daughter don't know themselves. Feminine stylists sighed then- disappointment.

One declared morosely: "I guess well just have to go to church with them. But the Trumans haven't announced their church-going plans cither. The President is a Baptist, his wife and daughter they're liable to turn up anywhere. House Demos Set Up Harmony Committee WASHINGTON, April 17 House Democrats laic tonight named a special "harmony" committee to work with Democratic National headquarters, but the action promptly stirred up a new inner party row. The committee was chosen at a GO-minute party caucus, held behind Ion; closed House legislation.

doors after a day- wrangle over OPA House Democratic whip John Sparkman of Alabama told news men the action "means we are all working in peace and harmony again." Several other administration supporters, chiefly representing northern industrial districts, disagreed sharply, however. Mexican Business Is Halted By Holy Week MEXICO CITY, April 17 Business in this preponderantly Catholic nation will slow to a near standstill tomorrow as Mexicans observe Holy week culminating Sunday with Easter services, All government offices will close tomorrow for the remainder ot the week and many ot the business houses, shops and small industries will do likewise, duction workers because of parts and steel shortage.

Small asserted survey 'showed steel production was dropping steady, that some railroads may be forced to curtail in the next-two weeks and that 15 small brick plants, whose output was essential to new housing, have been closed, The Ford company said production was suspended indefinitely at its Lincoln plant, but most of its production workers probably would be recalled next Monday. In announcing the suspension ot second this month company described the steel shortage as serious obstacle in the path oC full production." The shutdown will curtail scheduled car production by 5,000 units.

Workori Said Returning DcHpilc the growing effects of the coal strike, the number of strike-idle across the nation dropped to slightly below 700,000 lowest since the 400,000 soft coal miners ictt their jobs 17 days ago. The return of all but 3,000 of the 175,000 General Motors strikers and final settlement of the International Harvester strike of 30,000 accounted for the decline. However, most of the Harvester workers are not expected to be recalled until next week. President Truman ordered creation of an emergency board to investigate a dispute involving 2,500 members the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen employed by the Rock Island railroad system. The action automatically postponed strike scheduled for yesterday over union charges that the railroad "violated scheduled rules and certain awards made by the National Railroad and Adjustment board."
