of the evidence then secured and the
efforts of the Yugoslav government to
right ths wrong done."
Acheson said he knew nothing ex-
cept what ba had read in a news dis-
patch of a report by Tanjug. official
Yugoslav news agency, that Tito had
rejected the ultimatum. But the re-
port itself evoked no great surprise in
diplomatic quarters here.
Face-Saving for Tito
These officials speculated that Tito
likely would contend he had ordered
ths release of the fliers before official
receipt of ths ultimatum, and that it
therefore had become “irrelevant."
Buch a move undoubtedly would
serve as a face-saving stand by Tito.
U. 8. acceptance of it, in the light
of avowed determination to weigh the
whole case after release of the fliers,
seemed doubtful.
Meanwhile, the United States was
preparing to order early resumption of
army air force flights around Yugo-
slavia — with armed protection.
Whether thia would mean arming the
transports or providing them with
fighter escorts remained undetermined

changes in the government's grain
program.
Buying came mainly from commis-

fractions as demand in that market
met resting orders to sell and some of-
ferings by houses with eastern cash
connections.
U. 8. Expands Grain Program
A major change in the government’s
grain program was an increase in the
export goal from 250,000,000 bushells
of wheat and flour to a "probable
total" t
grains and grain product*. This would
bring exports close to the level of the
past marketing season.
Some traders expressed surprise at
the boost in the program a* it was
thought favorable development of
European crops thU year would obvi-
ate the necessity of heavy exports.
Livestock Floods Markets
Scattered showers were reported
from many sections of the grain belt.

during most of the night. While not

pointed out that the crop U now In a
