OF Pepper Industry

A charge that the Government j.
attempting to take over the pepper
industry in this country for the du.
ration Of the war was made today
in District Court before Justice T
Whitfield Davidson of Texas.
The accusation was made by At
torney Edward L. Blackman. rep
resenting the Commodity Trading
Corp. of New York. before Justice
Davidson. The visiting justice de-
MED a motion by the Government
for declaratory judgment to dis
miss suit for an injunction brought
by the corporation against War Food
Administrator Marvin Jones. Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wickard and
others. to prevent the Federal off,
cials from requisitioning 1000 900
pounds of whole pepper from the
company.
In Trade and Meat Packing.
Joseph Family, representing the
Government. said some of the pep
per was to be used directly by the
armed force and the remainder
would be used for Latin American
trade to obtain other essential war
commodities and for the meat-pack-
ing industry.
The New York corporation, ac-
cording to its attorneys. now has
stored In It's warehouse in Hoboken.
N. j.. 100000 of the $4,000 900
pounds of pepper which remain in
this country. Since the outbreak
of the Pacific war in 194l, no pep
per has been imported.
Mr.. Blackman said the investors
who comprise the company he rep
resents began importing the pepper
in l943 when they became alarmed
over President Roosevelt's attempt
to balance prices through devalua-
tion of the dollar. They chose pep
per. he said because 1t was virtually
indestructible and could be stored
safely for many years.
Want At Least 9a4 Cents.
It was this action, he said. which
brought the pepper industry to this
country and ultimately assured the
Nation store Of pepper when war
broke out Previously. he said, Lon
don and Amsterdam were the pep
per markets of the world.
The firm does not object to selling
its pepper at price Of ga cents
per pound, Mr.. Blackman said, but
it would lose money If it were forced
to sell at the OPA ceiling Of Ga
cents.

Asserting that trade with Russia
and China will help keep the fac
tories Of America busy in the days
that lie ahead" Mr.. Wallace said he
was convinced that a main area of
development after this war ''' will
be IN the now world of the North
Pacific and Eastern Asia.
Cities Vast Resources.
"The new frontier extends from
Minneapolis via the coast States and
Alaska through Siberia and China
all the way to Central Asia. Here
are vast resources Of minerals and
manpo~er to be developed by demo-
cratic. peaceful methods-the meth
ods not OF exploitation, but on the
contrary the more profitable method
of creating higher living standards
Tor hundreds OF millions Of people"
During his seven weeks travels,
Mr.. Wallace said he saw virtually no
likelihood Of postwar in,ernecine
strife in China, nor any chance of
conflict between the Chinese and
Russia.
Personally I am convinced that
China and the USSR will take the
necessary steps to insure continu-
Ing peace and to promote the cult
ural and commercial exchanges
tho a Of
the benefit of ALL
The Pacific Northwest States and
the Amur River region in Soviet
Asia were cited as two regions of
great development where signs Of
the growing importance of the North
Pacific area are already apparent.
Grateful for Exclusion Repeal.
Mr.. Wallace said he brought the
personal thanks of Generalissimo
Chang Kai-shek to Representative
Magnuson. Democrat, OF Washing
ton. and President Roosevelt for the
repeal Of the Chinese Exclusion Act
Mr.. Magnuson sponsored the repeal
measure which, Chang said, gives
us tace in the Orient"
/ Throughout Siberia there was
much evidence of the workings OF
the lease-lend program with Amer
lean steel and aluminium in fac
tories far in the interior.
Both the laborers in the factories
and those in positions of manage
ment' were appreciative of the aid
rendered by the United States and
other Allies" Mr. Wallace said.
China, too. is willing and anxious
to develop her industries and re-
sources with the help of the United
States. the Vice President explained,
although the machine age has as vet
not greatly affected domestic pro-
duction.
But. however much he might ad-
mire the peoples he visited, Mr.. Wal
lace said his travels served only to
strengthen his faith in the United
States.
Tennis Balls Cost $500.

The Vice President smiled as he

asked if he played tennis in China,

to play tennis in China he said.
Anyway, found that it's a fairly
expensive pastime over there now.

the danger of hitting our friends as
we'll as foe.
In paying tribute to the remark
able achievements of the Air Force
Gen. Eisenhower got back into his
most trying subject-the weather
He said Allied air operations were
beyond praise for endurance, skill
and enthusiasm, but weather pre-
vented coordination of the huge
air power with tactical ground fight
ing and thus saved the enemy.
The weather was SO bad. the gen.
eral said with grin. that even the
British admit it was unusual. In
TACT. the British were talking about
their weather like Californians.
Lunches With Lord Halifax.
Gen. Eisenhower was in high
spirits today as he lunched with the
Earl of Halifax, the British Ambas-
sador to Washington and Mai Gen
w. Bedell Smith, the chief of staff
Lord Halifax put great diplomatic
emphasis on the recent Danish
strike, pointing out that six months
ago the German Army would have
been able to crush it rather than to
bow to its demands.
He agreed with Gen. Eisenhower
outlook, adding a great tribute to
the general personally. Britain and
America, Lord Halifax said. owe
many debts to Gen Eisenhower. but
perhaps the greatest is the wav he
mas worked us all into one fighting
team.
Inc British Ambassador expressed
the hope this was a foretaste and
symbolic of what the politicians
would be able to do in their field
during and after the war.
Peace Terms Not Enough.
Peace terms would not be.enoueh
LORD Halifax said. Public opinion
IN all countries must see to it that
the peace terms are made effective
In that way he was looking forward
to the American, Russian and Brit
ish talks to open soon in Washing
ton.
And the Ambassador added: It is
impossible to expect that all of one
nation will like all the people in the
other countries. The world doesn't
live in a honeymoon. But the life
Of the world does depend on CO.

Compromise Barred
BY Texas Democrats
Opposing Fourth Term
By the Associated Press.

AUSTIN, Tex, July lo.-Hopes Of
an agreement between warning
Texas Democrats faded today with
a statement from former State SEN
ator Roy Sanderford, permanent
chairman Of the regularly consti-
tuted Democratic convention, that
there would be no compromise.
The Sanderford faction refused to
bind its electors to vote for the
party's presidential nominee unless
the national convention at CHICAGO
lulnlled certain conditions, includ-
ing restoration of the two.thirds
rule and adoption Of . platform
plank critical of the Supreme
Courts recent Negro vote decision.
The pro- Roosevelt group split with
the regular convention and formed
its own, then named DELEGATES
pledged to vote for President Roose-
velt's denomination and electors
bound to support the party's
nominee.
The Sanderford statement, re-
leased through the State Democratic
Executive Committee Office, declared
Secretary of Commerce Jones was
IN error in charging the Democratic
State convention has deprived a
majority of Texas voters of q right
to vote for their choice Of Presi-
dent"
Mr.. Sanderson said the pro-Roose-
velt convention may place the names
OF Its electors on the November elec-
tion ballot and IF this is done. every
voter in Texas will have an oppor-
tunity to vote as he pleases. and any
representation to the contrary Is
without foundation"
Mr.. Sanderford referred to an edi.
torial signed by Secretary Jones In
the Houston Chronicle. 1t was criti-
cal of what was described as the
extreme" action taken by the regu-
lar convention.

I'VE have to bring Germany and
Japan to total surrender, and then
build better world in which in
ternational solidarity must not be
vain word: 1t must be realized in
practical way. in the interest of
all, and with due respect for the
rights Of all.
American Role Immense.
"The role of the United States in
the war effort and this peace ef-
fort is truly immense. and entails
very heavy responsibilities for the
American people. President Roose-
welt spoke to me Of all this with a
breadth Of view, a knowledge Of the
problems and an idealism which
particularly impressed me.
For my part, explained to him
as well as I could. how France
gradually emerging from her tempo
rary misfortune. intends to partici-
pate with her Allies, at her rightful
place, first in the war and then
in the life Of the world at peace.
There exists an ancient and ira
ditional factor which ought to be
of the greatest value to us in the
common work which remains to be
done. That factor is the grand old
Franco American friendship.
found that friendship very much
alive here, and I have been given
a thousand touching proofs of it
French Deeply Grateful.
Believe me, on the French side
nothing Is dearer to our hearts than
that. l do believe that when we
talked together of the present and
the future President Roosevelt and

same situation as your brave Amer
lean boys and our good French SOL
diers who are fighting side by side
In the same hard battle for the
same magnificent cause"

but that city lying between AL

Professionally as a temporary cap
ital.
He said it was quite likely that
ne would appear in France soon to
establish the services of the pro-
visional government.
Uncertain on Capital.
Asked what city might be used as
a provisional capital, the general
said that would depend on military
developments.
In discussing postwar plans for
international security, Gen. de
Gaulle made it plain that France
expected to play a major role, al
though he thought that the small
nations must be included.
He said that he did not believe
that security against Germany
could be realized without the CO.
