CContinued from Page D nodlties to the stimulation of production In marginal or hgih- cost industries, The administration wanted the power to buy and sell world commodities. In order to stabilize domestic. prices.
 As opposition mounted, admin. istrator leaders abandoned plans to offer Q modified wage regulA. ton, fearing 1t would only precip1a tate stronger amendments. Rep. A, willis Robertson, D., Va. offered an amendment to bar any wage increases which the government found to be "inflationary." With administration and Republican opposition it was showed under, i02 to 6S,

 As 1t finally passed. the bill au- thorizes the price administrator to pkG9CkApG SbhAAA0AANS ResS gSsstAsosl using the oct. 1 to Oct. l5, l04l, period as Q yardstick. His Tegula. tions can be overruled by a five- man administrative board Of re- view. This was put into the bill by amendment of Rep. Jesse Wolcott, R., Mich., ranking member Of the banking committee.
 Wages specifically are exempt from regulation, and the admin istrator may set no ceilings on farm prices below the highest of three alternative bases - 100 per cent of parity; the general level of prices for Oct. l, is4i, and the general level of prices from 1919 to 1929.
 The administrator may enforce his decrees by a court order en- joining offenders, and conviction of willful conspiracy to evade reg ulations Is punishable by two year imprisonment or 6 SS,000 fine. The administration argued that this method of enforcement would be too unwieldly ard that the lieens- ing system was needed for worka- ble, eficient regulation.

 There was no indication yet whether the Germans have reached Moseow's inner defense line against which c military spokesman said the RuSSains are being driven, He admitted that RuSsan resistance continues strong.

 President Roosevelt. who left yeE- terdAy for his delayed vacation in Warm Springs, was ready to cut ahort his stay there and return to Washington If Far Eastern events required his presence here.
 The Japanese embassy had not been fully informed Of Tokyo's ofa. eial reaction to the American Fe- statement Of fundamental princi- ples, handed Wednesday evening by Secretary of State Cortlell Hull to sahuro Kurusu and Admiral No. mura.
 Meanwhile, the situation in the southern Pacific was scrutinlzed for q possible clue to Tokyos tnten- tons.
 one explanation, advanced in re- sponahle quarters, was that the 1n- do-China display of force by the Japanese armed services was for tho purpose of influencing AIneri. can public opinion toward an ap- peasement policy in dealing with Japan. Japan,s militarists have mis- judged American public opinion in the past, notably when Japan'S en. trance Into the trl-partite pact was calculated to intimidate the United States, and they might be doing 1t again.
 It also was suggested that some of Japan's militarists, desiring to cpoll any chance Of c settlement with the United states, had staged the Indo-C -China demonstration to emharrass Kurusu and Nomura, Sources close to the Japanese en- basSy here stated that Nomura, throughout the exploratory talks with Hull, had been privately fear" full that some move by Nationalist might handicap his mission.
 While the United States Is pre- pairing for any developments in the Far East, 1t was revealed by the President yesterday that American cargo ships in the Pacific will not be armed for the time being, but that 6 change in circumstances might cause a reversal of that pol- icy.
 He was asked at his press confer. ence how long he expects present conditions to continue In the Paci- fic. That question, he piled. would better be answered in Tokyo.
