UP) Senators and government officials teamed up today to assure ample storage facilities for the bumper wheat, corn, and other crops farmers are expected to harvest this year.

The "Review discusses the le Representatives of the council previously announced they would begin circulating petitions to get the required 204,672 signatures as soon as the measure received a title.

If qualified, it would go oh the 1950 ballot, but sponsors said they will ask the governor to call a special election to expedite action on it. The repeal measure would maintain the present needy payments at $75 monthly for aged and $85 monthly for blind but would return the administrative setup to the same status as before passage of proposition 4. As the repeal movement gained headway, State Treasurer Charles G. Johnson sent a telegram to Oscar Ewing, federal security agent administrator, asking him to speed payment of federal funds to aged and blind pensioners. In Washington, the FSA approved making payments under a modified version of the controversial pension law, and federal funds are being released immediately.

Despite the withholding of federal funds to help meet payments, there had been no delay because the state has advanced the necessary amount from other funds. Rent controls seemed sure today to be continued, but perhaps in weaker and shorter form than President Truman has requested. A check of some leading members of the house banking committee, now considering the legislation, indicated this line of thinking: PROGRAM OUTLINED 1. Continuation of rent ceilings for 12 to 14 months. Mr.

Truman has requested two years. 2. A ban on mass eviction of tenants. Some landlords have threatened to withdraw their rental property from the market if rent ceilings are extended. 3.

Power for the rent administrator to sue for-damages where landlords overcharge tenants. But the administration may not get its requested authority to bring criminal action, with fine and imprisonment on conviction, against property owners who violate the rent law. Tenants now have a right to sue for rent overcharges. But the administration contends that the fear of eviction prevents them from taking their complaints to the courts. AREAS DOUBTFUL It is now uncertain whether congress will grant the administration's request for authority (a) to extend the areas covered by rent controls and (b) to restore controls over several classes of rental property previously decontrolled.

Tighe Woods, housing expediter, has asked the committee for tighter authority to stop "a growing black market" in rental charges. Spokesmen for many landlords have assailed rent control as "confiscation of property" and un-American." One group said continuation of controls for one year would be-all right if rent ceilings were raised 25 per cent over June 30, .1947 levels. r-TIT Miffi i jV. ftIIWllUFMBBIWilllilil)lJIP gal pitfalls that may await the cloudseeders and rainmakers.

Premier Sun Fo, the cabinet and some lawmakers fled there late last month. They hoped to set up a refugee capital in the south and hold the next yuan meeting there. But Acting President Li Tsung-jen balked at leaving Nanking.
