Ottawa, Jan. 16—(UP)—The Canadian government reimposed price controls on meat and butter today after six months of free economy during which butter jumped 17 cents—from 50 to 67 cents—on the wholesale market.
Finance Minister Douglas C. Abbot announced the new controls last right. He said the prices on some foods had increased "completely out of the realm of reason."

Vandenberg Hits Fuzzy Loans' To Europe's Nations
By Bibler
Washington, Jan. 18 — (UP) —
Ben. Arthur H. Vendenberg. (R-
Mich.) said today "half the criticism"
of the Marshall plan could be eli-
minated if the U.S. demanded and re-
ceived power to inspect the books
of borrowing countries.
--the chairman of the Senate Fres-
ton Relations committee agreed with John J. McClay, president of the international bank, that loans made to the 15 western European nations under the recovery program should be "productive loans . . . not fuzzy loans" which might never be re-raid.
McCloy revealed that the world bank soon would issue a statement showing that for the first time it was in the black. He told the committee that his organization insisted on powers to inspect the books of borrowing countries and to make certain that bank-funds were not diverted to non-productive uses. He disclosed that a 500 million dollar loan request from France was halved pending evidence that France was taking strong steps to balance its currency
But the administration's "baker or shear" stand on the Monarch Trail from a group of senate Republicans led by Sen. Robert A. Taft.
