Austin Raps Wheeler
For Isolation Talk

Championing the cause of Amer
lean participation in a world organi-
zation for security in the postwar
era, Senator Austin, Republican, of
Vermont today took issue with what
he termed recent "isolationist"
statements of Senator Wheeler,
Democrat, of Montana.
Senator Austin defended "the use
|of external sovereignty for secur-
|ity" before the section of interna-
tional and comparative law of the
American Bar Association at a
Mayf1ower Hotel luncheon. He is
one of eight Senators assigned to
confer with the State Department
on questions of policy.
The speaker quoted Senator
Wheeler as having said that such
corporation has not and should not
involve surrender of the sovereign
right of the American people to
dictate the policies of this Nation,
or impair its freedom and independ-
|ence, by joining any international
police organization controlled by
foreign nations"
Such "isolationist" statements,
Senator Austin said, were dealing
with policy, and were interposing a
sound obstacle to the making OF
agreements and treaties which
would implement the security OF the
several nations parties thereto"
Also speaking at the luncheon
was Solicitor General Charles Fahy.
Following the luncheon there were
reports by Comdr. Amos j. Peaslee.

Strawberry Shipments Here
Lao Under New Low ceilinq

The new ceiling price now in ef-
feet on fresh Strawberries from the
South has caused nearly all whole
salers to withdraw from the market
with the result that virtually no
new shipments were arriving here
today, according to officials Of the
National League Of Wholesale Fresh
Fruit and Vegetable Distributors.
A few arrivals may be expected
tomorrow, spokesman added.
Wholesalers contend the OPA
ceiling price is too low to risk losses
through necessary refrigeration
costs and possible spoilage.
Members Of Congress from South
ern strawberry growing States were
reported to have protested to ad.
ministration officials that the cell
ing should be removed or the price
raised.
