u. ). Must Put End
To Future Hit|ers,
Meyer Declares
'Publisher.Soys Nation
Should Prepare for
A Dynumic Peuce'
By the Associated Press.


BRONXILLE, N. Y, June g.
Eugene Meyer, publisher of the
Washington Post, said today that
after the war the United States
must "see to it that no future Hitlers
can arise, either in Germany or
elsewhere"
I'VE, as Nation, must either play
a part in world affairs that is COM
mensurate with our wealth and
strength and resources, or else cede
to others the power and position
that rightly belongs to U.s." he said
in an address prepared for gradua-
ton exercises at Sarah Lawrence
College.
Victory, in itself, does not mean
peace. 1t can only mean the crea-
ton of a state of affairs in which
peace can be achieved and main
tanned. '"'
Cooperative Effort Vital.
Hitler may have his successors.
unless, once we have achieved vic
tory, we see to it that no future
Hitlers can arise. either in Ger
many or elsewhere. And that means
the cooperative effort of peace
loving nations. including the United
States"
Declaring that, in addition to a
pooling of power, this group of ma
tions must have definite aims and
ideals. he added:
present war must not be fixed and
rigid. 1t must be a dynamic peace.
Our President, Mr.. Wallace. the
vice president; Mr. Sumner Welles.
the Undersecretary of State. and
other high officials who have ad-
dressed themselves to this question
of the world after the war deserve
credit in their emphasis on the idea
that peace must be continuous
process of action not merely in the
political sphere but in the economic
sphere as we'll"
Force Needed For Peace.
Discussing the question of how
is peace to be maintained, the pub
Usher said:
Here We must get back to the
one central fact that no system of
peace can have any meaning unless
it has adequate force behind it.
Any international organization that
may be created after this war ends
will fail, as the League tof Nations)
failed, unless there is behind the
organization of peace a nucleus of
power capable of being modified
and effectively employed. Under
existing circumstances that means
the continuous participation of the
United States in the maintenance
of peace"

Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, June 6.-Rye prices
led a general decline in the grain
market today. Soybeans fell IA to 2
cents.
Losses amounted to more than a
cent in the rye pit but were confined
to fractions in other grains during
the early part of the session. Re-
ports of a United States victory at
Midway helped to check the decline
Brokers blamed weakness of rye,
which slipped below 66 cents a
bushel for July contracts, near lows
for the year established earlier in
the week, largely on renewed profit
taking and professional selling on
belief that large crop will be har-
vested this summer.
Latest private estimates indicate
production will exceed $4,000, 900
bushels. compared with a crop of
As, ,19l 900 last year and an average
harvest from 1880 to 1889 of SO, ,472,-
900 bushels. Normal seasonal do
mestic disappearance is about A.
100000 bushels.
Weakness of cotton futures, which
tumbled more than SO a bale in New
York, was a disturbing factor in the
grain trade. Traders who pur-
chased wheat yesterday on crop
complaints from Kansas were less
bullish on this subject today because
a burdening supply would be in
sight, anyway, even If only a nor
NAL crop is produced. Recent. pros
poets have been for a bumper har-
vest.
Trade reports indicated the Gov
ernment was buyer of soybean and
cottonseed oil recently, but Federal
officials indicated latest purchases
were made week ago Thursday
when 574,882 pounds of bean oil and
608,1 pounds of cottonseed oil were
taken.
This, however, failed to strengthen
soybeans, which dropped as much as
2 cents bushel in some cases, with
liquidation of July contracts de-
pressing the general market. Soy
beans have been weakened recently
by sluggish demand for meal. The
break in cotton also was a factor.

Auto Requisitioning
Believed Unlikely
For Year al Least
Supply of New and Used
Vehicles Holds Up Under
Limited Demand
BY DAVID ]. WILKIE,
Wide World Automotiye Editor.

DETROIT, Jpne 6.-Govern-
mental requisitioning of privately
owned passenger automobiles is not
in prospect for the current year
at least, according to private in
formation reaching automotive in
dustry authorities here.
The immobilization of from O.
100000 to 100000 such vehicles
through restrictions on excess tire
ownership, on the other hand, is
wholly within the possibilities OF
the coming six months. An order
banning the ownership of more
than five tires by any one person
or family would bring this about,
1t has been estimated, without i'm
posing any great hardship on the
families accustomed to the use OF
two or more vehicles.
One of the anomalies of the pres
ent situation affecting the motoring
public is that, despite the. lack Of
production. the relatively small stock
of new cars available and the
rationing program, there is no
shortage Of automobiles or auto
mobile transportation at the mo-
ment.
100000 New Cars on Hand.
Undoubtedly without the restric-
tions on new-car sales and the
threat of fuel rationing to save tires
there would be demand FAR IN
excess of the supply. 1t cannot be
said, however. that there would be
actual need in like volume.
Besides the approximately 100000
unsold l942 models produced prior
To last February 10 there are many
thousands of secondhand vehicles
in dealers possession on which
there are no sales restrictions. Yet
they are attracting fewer buyers
than most trade experts expected
when restrictions on new-car as
semblies first we're proposed.
Most, If not all. of these vehicles
may be expected to be absorbed be-
fore requiSitioning OF privately
owned cars becomes imminent, the
industry experts assert.
While many of the automobile
company executives last December
predicted a serious shortage of pas
senger vehicles during 1912 most OF
them now agree that with careful
use and the elimination Of non
essential operation the cars now
privately held plus those in deal
ers' hands can be made to last not
only through 1943 but 1914 as we'll
No Illusions on New Tires.
MANY of these executives are dis
posed to apply the same reasoning
to the tires on these vehicles
always with the stipulation that
driving be restricted to the abso-
lutely essential. And" said one
of these authorities, "even If your
tires are practically new right
now, 1t isn't too early to begin
leveling off to essential driving"
The one-time car builders harbor
no illusions concerning the tire
outlook. Although they are intensely
interested in recurring reports OF
discoveries of new methods of pro-
ducing rubber substitutes they are
fairly we'll convinced that despite
the chronological ingenuity OF
American engineers there will be
no rubber or rubber substitutes for
unrestricted civilian use until about
the end of 1914.
Even if we do come up with an
vpeynected source of synthetic"
