White House, and a mail pouch
will be flown south daily.
In a brief talk from the north
portico of the executive man-
sion, the President promised
to work hard during the next
four years. He said he looks for-
ward "to the help and coopera-
tion of all the people because
we are faced with great issues."
Shortly after his return from
Missouri, the President went
into session with his cabinet.
One member said the meeting
was "strictly business, with no
backslapping." Each member
was given an assignment and
instructed to go to work on it.
The nature of the assignments
was not explained.

Truman and Undersecretary
of State Robert A. Lovett held a

lems. There were indications
they discussed means of
strengthening cooperation with
the Republicans in behalf of tine
bipartisan foreign policy; the
march of communist armies in-
to north China, and possible
American participation in a
North Atlantic Security Pact.
Cabinet changes are expected
to figure prominently in mat-
ters the President will take up
during his vacation. He is ex-
pected also to tackle such prob-
lems as next year's budget, mili-
tary defense, and how to make
good on the Democratic plat-
form pledges.

Farm Prices Drop For
Third Straight Month
A USTIX. Tex.—(U P)—Prices-
received by Texas farmers
dropped for Ihe third successive
month, with the mid-October
level down 10 points from a
month earlier, the United States
Department of Agriculture re-
ported today.
The department's bureau of
agricultural economics pegged
the Oct. 15 level at 299, down a
per cent from the mid-Septem-
ber figure.
Sharp drops in the prices of
meat animals and corn, and mod-
erately lower prices for cotton-
seed, sweet potatoes and butter
fat, were only partially offset by
limited gains in the prices for
other grains, poultry products
and wholesale milk.
