President Charles Seymour of Yale
University told a graduating class
yesterday that the only hope of
choosing a foreign policy that will

Speaking at curtailed wartime
ceremonies marking the university s

DR.. Seymour said:
If the democracies in the course
of the past quarter of a century
have been compelled to fight two
heartbreaking wars and wasted the
opportunity presented to them by
victory in the first, it is because the
opinion that controls democratic
government was completely un-
educated In foreign affairs"

Senate Ready 10 Act
On Mcclellan Bill
And Appropriations
Navy Requests "a Billions
Largest Amount Asked
In History Of Service

Ply the Associated Press.
Two big appropriation bills and a
measure calling for Senate confir-
nation OF $4,500-a-year and up Fed
eral employees competed for Senate
attention today.
A key figure in determining which
would get priority on the floor was
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, of
Tennessee, sponsor of the job bill
and acting chairman of the Appro-
priations Committee which ap-
proved the $24,85O. .0OO, 900 naval ap-
preparation bill and the $500 0OO, 600
agricultural supply bill Saturday.
Technically, the confirmation bill, i,
on which debate started last week,
Is the pending business, but Senator
McXellar was expected to move to
lay it aside temporarily in order to
shove through the money measures
The naval bill, although the largest
appropriation ever considered for
that branch of the fighting services,
was considered relatively non-con-
troversial, but the agriculture bill
was another story.
The Navy bill provides $4,000, ,OOO,-
900 for new ships and $500 0OO, 900
for naval aviation. In the latter
fund. there is money for 27,642 addi-
tional planes.
Close legislative in-tighting was
expected on some phases of the farm
bill. The Senate committee restored
funds, cut out by the House. for the
Farm Security Administration and
the Federal crop insurance program.
In addition. it added 100000. 900 to
the s3O0OO0.OOO provided by the
House for soil conservation pay

Chairman Cannon Of the House
Appropriations Committee said,
meanwhile, that he looks for little
opposition to the pending $72,0O0.-
100000 request for War Department
funds. but trouble looms for the So
900 100000 appropriation measure
for various war agencies, including
the OPA, Owl. War ManpoWer
Commission and Board of Economic
Warfare.
Many Of these agencies have un-
dergone congressional criticism in
recent weeks from the House floor
and in committees. complaints be-
ing directed at both policies and
personnel. Critics are expected to
translate complaints into action
when the appropriation measure
reaches the floor for debate. amend

1t was disclosed yesterday.
This campaign makes long step
forward toward peace, home and
honor, the Prime Minister declared
To Allied airmen at one of the
bases wrenched from the Axis. Mr.
Churchill commented: Remember
we had Corpl Hitler all the time to
help us. This self-made and self
unmade man has added sauce to the
goose you've caught, killed and
eaten"
Mr.. Churchill expressed an opinion
that the Raj not only had stemmed
the tide but carried forward the
British 1st and 9th Armies. But. he
added iocularly, while the RAF
might think it did everything, the
army and navy still had a part to
play.
Postwar Air Power.
He forecast that after the war
the Allies would use air power to
build up a better world and not to
crush small nations as Hitler did.
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden
spoke briefly, saying: The first
thing foreign secretary must learn
to 90 is obey the Prime Minister I
tried another method once, but it
didn't work
At this point Mr.. Churchill ap-
plauded enthusiastically.
Paying tribute to the Raj for
wining the battle Of Britain without
which there would have been no
good tidines now, Mr.. Eden said a
new chapter was about to open
not the least perhaps but no one
knew that
1t also was disclosed that on his

for cameras to get pictures of the

The three entered the briefing

few minutes, saying it was a COM
pliment to all three to be present
just as the American flyers were
going into combat The visitors
then listened as Maj. Orville Chat

signment.
The most disappointed man in
North Africa was pilot who handed
his camera to a friend and asked
him to snap his picture as he had

'CI0 Leader Urges
Stable Living Costs
In Letter 10 Byrnes
BushfieId Hits Subsidies
As Giving Public
Negligible Sovings
BY the Associated Press,

L
With the Office of Price Ad-
ministration's subsidy plan in
operation and rollbacks on meat
and butter soon to reach con-
sumers, the debate on subsidies
as means of holding up farm
prices continued undated to-
day as members of Congress,
farm and labor leaders expressed
varying views.
Philip Murray, president OF the
Congress of Industrial Organiza-
tions, defended subsidies in a letter
to James F. Byrnes, director of war
mobilization. Directing attention to
the Presidents order to stabilize
living costs at the September Is.
1912, level, Mr.. Murray said only
half-hearted measures have been
attempted in that direction.
The CIO leader said no attempt
had been made to stop selfish
pressure groIps in Congress from
defeating this policy. OPA rent
control. Ihe declared. is being seri-
ously threatened by real estate
groups exercising pressure on OPA
and Congress.
Bushfield Opposes Subsidies.
You are now Obligated Mr.. Muir
ray added, "as director of the Once
OF War Mobilization. to put into
effect the mandate of Congress and
OF the President that prices be rolled
back to the level of September Is,
1912"
Subsidies were attacked and de-
tended In radio debate last night
Senator Bushf1eld. Republican. of
South Dakota, author of a bill to
prevent any subsidy on food except
by specific appropriation from Con-
gress. estimated that without sub
sldles the average consumer would
have to pay in increased prices for
meat. butter and coffee less than |
cent a day, or 65 cents a year for
butter. "a cents for coffee and 81
for meat. The consumer will paw
for the subsidies in taxes, he pointed
out.
Richard V. Gilbert, economic ad-
wiser for OPA. contended that the
subsidy program is essential not
only to the rollback, but to holding
the cost of living at the level to
which we are committed"
Warns Of Imitation.
Mr.. Gilbert said subsidies pro-
vided the cheapest method of OBJ
tanning necessary production and
both consumers and the Govern
ment itself benefit from their use"
j. Donald Montgomery, consum-
ers' counsel for the CIO United
Automobile Workers. maintained
that from start to finish the war
program has been subsidized, as it
must be- and that opposition came
only after it was proposed to subsi-
die something for the consumer
Subsidies were assailed by Tom
Llnder Georgia commissioner of
agriculture and president of the
National Farm Committee. Food
subsidies, he predicted, will cost
consumers 5000 900 900 and them
selves constitute a real danger of
imitation"
Fair prices to farmers will not
cause imitation" he said. Fair
prices encourage production. Pro-
ductlon is the greatest safeguard
against imitation and the only secur-
ity against hunger"
Details of the third subsidy
backed decrease in food prices. roll
ing back the cost of coffee. is to be
announced by OPA soon, though no
