LONDON, April 1.-THE pro-
ponentS of League OF Nations
are as steadfast as they were %
years ago in their belief that
only through an international
authority such as the League
can the postwar peace be main
tanned. But they make clear
that this international authority
must be in essence a new body,
not the old League off 10 a new
start.
An interview with the Wis
count Cecil, one of the trainers
Of the original League Coven-
ant and Britain's elder states
man 10 the League, leaves re
doubt on this score. Today, at
30, Lord Cecil is no less con-
ccrned about keeping the post
war peace than he was during
the years between the wars
when his work as a delegate to
the League and as President of
the League of Nations Union
CAS- he still isl eliminated in the
award to him Of the Nobel Prize
in 1887.
Let's be realistic about ii"
Lord Cecil said to me. The
League failed because the great
powers were not willing to do
their part. The small nations,
by and large, were ready TO do
theirs. They made that clear be-
fore and during the Italo-Ethiop-
ian war.
If, after this war, the great
poWers-the United States, Bri-
tain, Russia, China-are again
unwilling to accept their respon-
sibility, nothing will keep the
peace. That's why any new in
ternational body, replacing the
League. must place its first en-
.phasiS on the realistic viewpoint
that the burden of keeping the
peace rests squarely on the
shoulders of the four great pow
ers. They are the ones to con-
troll the force which makes
peace, or war, possible"
The draft for such a new in
ternational Authority has, in
deed, already been made by the
| eague Of Nations Union. Lord
Cecil, as President of the I'm
ion, was particularly anxious
that such draft be drawn, for
he feels that otherwise discus
sion of an international Auth
GRITTY becomes unreal. 1t may
draw theoretical supporters who
VIII turn out TO be opponents
when discussion gets down to
specific cases.
The draft pact contains 10
short, concise articles creating
an international Authority. The
Authority differs from the
League in two major aspects,
Lord Cecil said First, it makes
clear that il is the primary duty
of the United States, Great Brit
ain, the Soviet Union, and China
20 act in case of aggression or
threatened aggression"
This is accomplished through
the creation, as part Of the Au-
thority, Of a Defense Committee.
a new committee not embodied
in the League. The Defense
Committee would consist, in the
first instance, Of the four major
nations They shall, according
to Article Nine of the draft, use
their whole strength 10 prevent
any act OF aggression j."

tense Committee is empowered

OPA Officials Soy

With glut reported in Wash
ington markets, District OPA of
ficials said today eggs may be
removed from the community
ceiling price lists within the next
few days, in order to reduce
prices to the consumer.
The effect of the present ceilings
established under Order 81 has been
to keep prices at.an abnormally high
level, 1t was said, because retailers
tend to sell them at ceiling levels
despite a drop in wholesalers prices.
One large grocery chain was re-
ported selling eggs at 4 cents below
the OPA community ceiling price
A survey of the egg situation here

Hitler Youths Reported
Creating Terror Reign
Ry the Associated Press.

MADRID, Jan. "a neutral en-
gineer, who has just returned from
Germany after completing a work
contract, said today that the Hitler
youth, arrogant with new police
power given them because of man
power shortage" have created a
reign of terror in the Reich.
They denounce German adults
right and left for anti-Nazi and pro-
Allied sympathies, he said, and
prisons are packed and executions
increasing.

have become symbol of terror" the
engineer said.
Their own parents fear them
and with reason. Bombing and the
threat of military defeat has fright
ened many older Nazis, but this
seems only to have made these
youths more arrogant, more Nazi,
more bitter"

Gen. Marshall, the Journal said,
had received comprehensive reports
of our intelligence officers and those
of our allies" that the Axis was using
the rail and steel strike threat in

Thus. by strikes and threats of

BERN, Jan. 8.-Rumania has
begun a hasty dismantling of

increasingly threatened by Soviet
advances. which are within about so
miles of the old Rumanian frontier,
the Rumanian government has
ordered the machinery of as many
factories as possible to be moved to
the interior behind mountains, the
dispatch said.
The evacuation measures extended
throughout Bessarabia and Bucovina
with peasant carts loaded high with
goods, blocking the roads in flight
into the interior. The peasants were
said to be driving long columns of
cattle before them.
Civilians have been forbidden the
use of the railways, apparently to
facilitate the use of transport for
withdrawal of troops and the carry
ing out of defense measures in the
east.
Real Estate Panic Reported.
The Basler Nachrichten said
cadets at the Chisinau School, who
were home for the Christmas holi-
days, were told not to return to
school and to await further orders.
Wealthy Rumanians abroad were
said to be convinced that the Rus
sian advance means the end of their
fortunes, but their fears were as
nothing compared to those still in
Rumania, where there was panic
selling of real estate.
Meanwhile, Hungarian frontier
guards were said by the Basler
Nachrichten to have refused entry
to 1000 Ustachis (Croat puppet

Yugoslav PartisanS and attempting
to escape across the frontier from
