UNRRA Conference
Stirred by Dispute
Over Aid 10 India
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Nov. H.
The United Nations Relief and Re-
habilitation Administration rode q
minor whirlpool today, with a Ma
tionalist from India indicating his
country expected UNRRA help and
Col. John j. Llewellin, British war
food administrator, declaring India s
problems were outside the agency's
responsibilities.
Although having no official con-
nection with the UNRRA, President
j. j. Singh OF the India League of
America, called 4 press conference
yesterday and said India might not
vote contributions to UNRRA since
the latter was sending no help in
Indias current famine.
The India League president re-
ported finding some sentiment here
favorable to sending India help. In
this connection he mentioned the
Chinese delegate, DR.. T. r. Slang,
but the latter Immediately called a
press conference to state he was not
the proper person to sponsor such a
proposal, although personally favor
ing 1t.
United States Agrees With Britain.
Several hours later, Col. Llewellin
issued q statement that 1T must be
quite clear to any one who has

UNRRA that supplies to India fall
outside the scope Of those activities"
Col. Llewellin is chairman of the
committee which passes on the scope
Of UNRRA activities.
The American delegation ap-
peared to be standing with the
British on this question; since As
sistant Secretary of State Dean
Acheson, an American delegate, had
written MI. Singh:
The scope and activities Of the
administration is limited in sub
stance to the relief of victims OF war
In areas liberated by the armed
forces of the United Nations"
Food Situa ton Cited.
But Mr.. Singh argued India's
hungry multitudes actually were
victims of war" since the famine
came from halting imports Of nearly
7.000, 900 tons of rice yearly from
Burma and exporting huge quanti-
ties of wheat to armed forces In the
Middle East
Col. Llewellin said grain ships al
ready were on the way to India and
that the next Indian harvest, an ex-
ceptionally good one, was due early
In January.
The Indian Nationalist reported
starvation was taking a death toll
Of about 100 900 weekly in India and
said the famine conditions could
affect American, British, Indian and
