Carnegie-IIIinois Strikers
End 1hree-Day WaIkout
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
GARY, Ind, Sept. ga three
day walkout of nearly 1000 men at
the Carnegie-Illinois Steel Corp. tin
mill, the worlds largest, ended last
night when the men returned to
work after United States concilia-
tors discussed the stalemate with
company and United Steel Workers
Of America (CIO) representatives.
Presumably the union, with the
men back at work, will file griev-
arlce for later discussion, since a
company spokesman had said the
concern was anxious to have the
men return to their jobs, then take
up their complaint through the
machinery for settlement of dis
putes.
The spokesman said the walkout
began Monday as a protest against
an announced intention of shifting
some workers to other jobs because
of Government curtailment of the
plants output.

Plan 70 Feed Stricken
From Crops Abroad
Given 10 President
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Plans for stimulating food
production abroad so this coun-
try will not have to feed the
world have been perfected by the
War Mobilization Board and now
are on President Roosevelt's
desk.
Announcement of the global work
to be undertaken may be forthcom-
ing by this week end, along with an
executive order designating which
Federal agency is to administer the
huge program.
The job may go either to the Of
flee of Economic Warfare, which al
ready is conducting large-scale pur-
chasing operations abroad, or to the
Agriculture Department, with it's
foreign bureau and corps of expert
enced scientists. The State Depart
nlent probably will have general
supervision insofar as foreign policy
Is concerned.
Eventually the program probably
will be integrated into some United
Nations organization in line with
the Allied policy of sharing inter-
national responsibilities.
This would be in keeping, too,
with United Nations plans to or
ganize relief and rehabilitation
work for war wrecked areas on a
worldwide basis in November. Dis

the relief agencies
Agricultural experts here said the
main work of promoting production
abroad Is divided into three steps:
First, deciding where fertile lands
and labor may be found; second,
guaranteeing markets for the pro-
duce, and third, making available
the services of scientists and other
men with "know-how" as we'll as
some machinery and seeds where
needed.
The cost is not expected to be
great, since nations benefiting from
increased production probably will
be able to pay for the food they get.
This was the case with relief work
in North Africa where the people
had plenty of money but little food
and clothing.
While some American producers
may fear foreign competition, the
advocates of foreign production say
the United Nations Food Conference
at Hot Springs last summer de-
veloped proof that the world never
has had enough food and the prob
lem essentially is not one of pro-
duction but one of distribution.

 'The conference thus launc'' ,d forward movement, which, I am firmly convinced, will steadily eX- tend in scope and effectiveness"
 Hull did not speak directly of his year-long campaign to have the major American political parties agree on foreign poll y and thus remove from the field of competitive politics. But he congratulated the members of Congress for their breadth and height of vision and staatesmanship' in adopting "by overwhelming non-partisan major ities" resolutions favoring U. s. War participation in an international system for the maintenance of peace.
 Hull said that although the enemy has suffered defeat after defeat" |, we still face enormous hardships and vast sacrifices" He emphasized again and again the importance of international cooperation and un- derstanding lest the full fruits Of final victory be lost.
 He said it was becoming increas- ingly clear that the time was near when more and more Axis-held ter ritory would be wrested from enemy grasp: When Germany and its re- maining satellites will have to go the way of Fascist Italy,"
 "In the circumstances" he said, thew problems arise which require concerted action by the Allies, to hasten the end of the war, to plan for it's immediate aftermath, and to lay the foundation for the postwar world"
 No Secret Agreements
 He said no secret agreements were made at Moscow, nor was any even suggested.
 Cataloguing the prime achieve ments of the Moscow meeting, Hull led off with the agreement to es- tablish ga general international or ganization, based on the principle of the sovereign equality of all peace-loving states and open to membership by all such states, large and small"
 "The principle of sovereign equal ity of all peace-loving states, ire spective of size and strength, as partners in a future system of gen. eral security will be the foundation stone upon which the future inter- national organization will be con- structed," he said.

 1. A move by Representative Wright Patnan, Democrat. Texas, administration subsidy spokesman. to eliminate from the bill the pro- vision banning subsidies.
 2. A compromise sponsored by Representative Mike Monroney, Democrat, Okla, which would limit the subsidy program to $900, ,000, GOO; extend 1t to September 30. 1944; and include a provision terminating the program If the Little Steel Formula is broken.
 3. A proposal by Representative John c. Kunkel, Republican, Pa, to extend the present program through 1924.
 Debate upon the subsidy issue has ragged off and on in the house for more than two weeks, and be- came especially bitter yesterday when Republican Leader Joseph w. Martin, Jr., of Massachusetts denied Patman's charge that the Repubn- cans had made party issue of the subsidy fight.
 During the heated exchange, Pat man admitted he could not speak for the Democrats - many of whom oppose the subsidy program - and Martin snapped: And I say you cannot speak for the Republicans"

the bus had no opportunity to take any action to avoid the collision, although there is some testimony that the bus swerved slightly to its right toward the south shoulder of the road an instant before the col lision. The physical cause of the collision was the blowout of the front tire of the truck.
 Defective Tire
 The truck was in good mechanical condition and the four rear tires were in good condition, as was the right front tire. The left front tire was worn through several layers of the fabric plies around the entire circumference, and at the point where the blowout occurred there remained only three fabric plies a total of ten plies and two breaker strips. At another point on the tire there were only five fabric plies re- maining.
 officers of the Elm City Filling Stations, Inc, and their agents and servants testified that it was the duty of each truck driver to inspect the truck assigned to him and to report any mechanical difficulties

for immediate comment.
 Bushnell took the action on the grounds that the police complaint against the youths was ''unneces- sary, unwarranted and unjust"
 The youths, Jacob Hodus, IS, and Harvey Blaustein, IT, both of Rox- bury, were convicted in Dorchester district court October 27 on charges of participating in an affray. Judge Richard M. Walsh, fined each $1O. The fines were appealed and shortly afterward Bushnell took the case over and conducted an investiga- ton of alleged anti-Semitlsm.
 In a 12-page opinion filed with Superior Court Clerk William M. Prendible, Bushnell said: "All of the evideGce and surrounding circum- stances of this case show that these boys are not brought here as de- fendants in criminal court 6S re- suit of a fair and honest attempt on the part of Boston police authorities to enforce the law impartlaliy and further prosecution of this conn., plaint is unnecessary, unwarranSec and unjust"
 In lower court, the youths bad charged that the police who arrest- ed them had cuffed, slapped and punched them.

and any defects in tires. There wa! no supervision of the truck drivers ill this respect. The Certificate O. War Necessity, on the back of whicf notations of tire inspections should have been made in accordance witf Federal regulations, showed no en- tries. There was, however, an in' spection by employees of the cor. poration on August IA, 1943, since which time the truck had beer driven less than three thousand miles. At the time of the inspection the servants of the corporation deS- ignated the left front tire as being in good" condition. This was ex- plained to mean that 1t was almost brand new and showed more thar 1-8 inch tread. According to tirt experts who testified, there is con- siderable doubt that the tire actual ly was in such condition at that time.
 Open to Doubt
 Another employe of the corpora tion who operated the truck or September 10, 1943, testified that he examined the tire on that date ano that it had not worn through te the fabric plies at any point. This statement, which was made un- equivocally, is open to the gravest doubt. The truck was driven les than five hundred miles after this inspection.
 It is apparent from testimony giv. en during the inquest that therl was negligence in allowing a trucl to be operated on the highway with the tire in unsafe condition. It wa. gross negligence to operate the trucl with an unsafe tire.
 The evidence does not disclos, knowledge on the part of the of ficers of the corporation sutficien to render them criminally liable ant the intervening negligent acts o Hemstock in operating the trucl with an unsafe tire would seem t, relieve other employees of the cor poration from criminal liability fo any prior negligence. There is in sufficient evidence to justify a clair OA SOAASCA lCo dIeAO11 DCGWCCA 11CA1 stock and the officers or employe of the corporation. Negligence Tinted
 Hemstock, as was disclosed by tn testimony, was under a duty i'm posed by the rules of the corpor ation as well as his legal duty t, inspect and report the condition 0 the tire, but failed to do so. So ia as the record in the present cas, is concerned, he alone is criminal, liable under the Automobile Homi eide Statute.

 "This is in accordance with the position maintained for some time by our government" he said.

 tury-Fox, but he accused his ex- wife of falling behind in her ali- mony.
 He sued for $1o,ooO in back pay ments, plus seven percent interest. That made it necessary for the court to undo the stickum on the secret agreement and thereby cause every eye in Hollywood to bulge.
 Judson promised that he'd return to Miss H., all documents bearing her signature, agreed not to "sell, give away, circulate or dispose of any matter arising out of their marital rleationship,' and added that he would not tell any slander- ous, libelous or defamatory" stories about her.
 The question was, what could such stories concern? Judson and his lawyers weren't doing any eX- plaining. Neither were Miss Hay worth and her attorneys. The court may look into Judson's secrets at the trial; meantime Hollywood can only surmiSe. r..
 Soon after her divorce became final, Miss Hayworth announced that she would marry Victor Mature of the coast guard as soon as the war was over. Then she got a job being "sawed'' in half every night by that master magician, Orson Welles. A few weeks ago Magician Welles produced Miss Hayworth in one piece at the office of Santa Mon ica judge and married her. Mature reported by long distance telephone that his heart was broken. Then he came to Hollywood on leave and Ann Shirley announced that she was engaged to marry him. Welles headed for England to make movies, Miss Hayworth stayed home, Mature returned to sea duty and Miss Shirley announced that she wasn't going to marry him, after all.
 There are no other facts for the record until, and if, Judson is forced to tell all the things he promised he wouldn't tell. If he gets the $10,000, presumably he never will tell.
 It's Miss Hayworth's next move.

 In a very real sense, the President concluded, 'New England, and par ticularly this second war confer ence, is a meeting place of history and of hope"
 Outlining the governments war food objectives for 1914, w. Clifford Townsend, special assistant to the War Food Administrator, predicted that despite projected increases food production will not be sufficient to cover demands at home and abroad.
 Our first aim," he said, "iS to raise enough of the right kinds of food for 8 well-balanced and gener- ous diet for our fighting forces, an adequate diet for our civilians, and then to send to our fighting forces, an adequate diet for our civilians, and then to send to our fighting AL lies all we possibly can above that amount"
 In paying tribute to New Eng land farmers, Townsend commended Maine in particular for its harvest ing of the record potato crop. Since the 1944 job of mobilizing farm la bor will be even greater than during this year, city populations will have to be recruited on a larger scale for critical harvests, he said.
 Maj Gen. Sherman Miles of the First Service Command urged that immediate consideration be given to employing men released from Army duty. He said the use of the 550,- 900 men aiready discharged would temporarily solve the nanpower problem.
 'The fact that a man has been discharged from the army does not disqualify him as a useful citizen, " said Gen. Miles. "As industrialists, you are vitally concerned with fu- ture rehabilitation problems. might say this is a current, rather than a future, problem. commend it to your attention in the hope that 1t may help you meet some of your manpower difficulties"
 Edward E. Chase of Portland, Me. president of the New England coun- cil. cautioned against industry raiding" of New England by other regions. Agents of the raiders al- ready are here with their overtures he said, playing domestic politics with the exingencies of war; Chase said he hoped that in the postwar period, appreciation of the New England war effort will be ex- pressed by action designed to pro- tect and maintain" the area against the unreasonable ambitions of those who may view the war as an opportunity more than as a duty"

Reds Oppose Notion-PooI

MOSCOW, NOV. 16. (UF)-HuSSla took a firm stand today against any postwar federation of small European states, making it plain that the Soviets oppose anything resembling a Gordon Sanitaire" to the west, and expect the Axis satel- htes to take their medicine.
 Through the official government organ Izvestia the Soviets set forth their opposition to any artificial union of small nations and revealed that it had been made known to Britain and the United States at recent three-power conference here, prompting no objection from either nation.
 "This must be especially em- phasized-the Soviet Union firmly rejects any attempts to launch a policy of the Gordon Sanitaire, re- gardless of the form under which it may be masked" IZvestia said.
 "It must be recognized that sev- eral projects of federation recently emanating from the west pungently reeks of the long bankrupt anti Soviet policy"
 The use of the old French dip lomatic term of sanitary cordon' in the sense of establishing neu- tral zone to preclude trespassing and fraction made it evident that the Russians expected to tolerate no barricading of the Soviet Union to the west.
 Arguing the prematurity of any discussion or the artificial encour- agement of federation in any form. Izvestia said Russia considers 1t un- just that Germany's satellites should enjoy a status within any federation equal to that of the oc- cupied allied countries.
 Finland, Rumania, and Hungary. for instance, "cannot and must not escape the consequences of being Hitler's and Mussolinis accomplices, even though they are small na- tions," the editorial said.
 Informed of Russia's attitude on the matter when they were here, Secretary of State Cordell Hull and Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden voiced no objections. 1zvestia re- ported.
