Polish Leaders 10 See Eden
After Talks on Czech Pact
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
LONDON, Dec. 16.-Polish Pre-
mier Stanislaw Mikolajczyk and
Foreign Minister Tadeusz Romer
are expected to see British Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden soon fol-
lowing a Polish cabinet discussion
yesterday of the new Czechoslovak-
Soviet treaty.
DR.. Hubert Ripka, acting Czech
foreign minister, told the Czecho-
slovak state council meeting that
the treaty enables other nations
of Central Europe and, in particu-
lar. the Polish nation to arrive at
such degree of cooperation with
the neighboring Soviet power as
distinguishes the Soviet-Czechoslo-
yak relationship, a cooperation
which is based upon the principle of
mutual respect for their freedom
and independence
DR.. Ripka said the governments
of the U. S. S. R. and CZechoslo-
vakia had in mind tri-partite
pact with Poland when they pro-
vided a protocol for third state to
join the treaty signed this week in
Moscow.

Appeals Court 0. K
Overall CEILINGS

The Emergency Court of Appeals
yesterday upheld the right of the
price administrator to impose an
overall price ceiling on all COM
modities, including those on which
prices had not risen or threatened
to rise-if necessary to head off a
generally inflationary trend.
In handing down its decision, the
court dismissed complaints brought
by five major independent manufac-
turers of coke and coke oven gas in
which they had asked relief from an
OPA regulation issued in April of
last year which froze prices as of
March, 1912.
The court held that the fact the
regulation prevents the complain
ants from passing to their custom
ers a part of their increased costs
does not Of itself render the
application of the regulation unfair
or inequitable as to them

Judge Albert B. Maris. Judge CAL

score of 81 planes shot down

good as they used to be and that
Southwest Pacific weather causes
more trouble than enemy pilots.
Capt. Richard Ira Bong, son of a
Swedish immigrant, is home on

mas with relatives.
Weather Gives Most Trouble.
>. "Jap pilots today are not as good
as they were before or else we're
getting better" Capt. Bong said at
, a press conference. Il don't think
they're as good as they were. I
imagine they've lost most of their
first line pilots, and I don't think
). their training course is as good as
ours. We have more trouble with
weather than we do with the Nips."
Capt. Bong related his most sue
,.cessful score for single mission was
four enemy planes downed in 10
minutes last August. His P-38 was
covering group troop action over
Salamaua when his squadron was
informed by radio the Japanese
