"State Within a State"
Vast power resulted from this
extraordinary concentration of war

scientific research, chronological ex-
cellence, patent protection, cartel
dominance, endless financial re-
sources, management ability and
masses of workers. The most apt
description of this power lies in the
phrase a state within state,'" the
report said.
Concerning the eventual break up
Of Farben, the report said it is
deemed advisable to accomplish
this breakup in an orderly man
ner, giving paramount consideration
to preventing another monopoly

The report disclosed that the
United States zone has the smallest
percentage of Farben plants in Ger

the largest. The American zone has

British 1l.50 and French 1920.
The report commented that it was
intended at the time of the seizure
that the properties involved would
be placed at the disposal of the
four-power agency, the Allied Con-
troll Council, but that this action has
not been completed.
1000 Cartel Agreements.
The American group has decided
it would be an "interminable pro-
cess" to go after each of Farben S
1000 cartel agreements. CThere
were 425 in the dyestuft and chemi-
cal field alone).
Therefore, it has been decided to
seek legislative action on the part
of the coutrol council outlawing
cartels and simplifying their dis
solution" said the report.

Murray AssaiIs 0PA,
But Backs Extension

BY the Associated Press.
CIO President Philip Murray as
serted before the Senate Banking
Committee today that OPA 'is stead
lily raising prices and adding to ex-
tortionate profits" of industry.
He indorsed extension through
l946 of the Price Control and Stab
llization Act, now due to expire
June 80, but sharply criticized the
way Government agencies have ad-
ministered the law.
"All the forces now working
against stabilization and toward
higher prices, higher profits, lower
take-home pay, and cutbacks and
layoffs can and must be reversed" :"
he told the committee.
| Mr.. Murray offered this three
point statement of the CIO position:
Il. Price control is a necessary
factor not only in the stabilization
program but in the program for
maintaining maximum production of
war and civilian goods during the
transition after We (Victory in
Europe) day.
%. Immediate general wage in
creases, far from threatening inf1a-
ton, are necessary first step to
prevent deflation after We Day.
'3. An efficient national produce
ton program for war and for re-
conversion must include adequate
take-home pay and successful price
control"

Warren declared he believed the
legislature had sent him a good

he pointed out that the budget total
ed S20,000.000 more than the amount

said. the legislature decided to take

UNCI0 Set-up

SAN FRANCISCO, June 4. CUP)
The United States delegation to
the United Nations Security Con-
ference, temporarily by-passing the
currently stalemated veto power is
sue, approved a plan Monday for
creation of an interim commission
to set up the administration of the
proposed world security organiza-
ton
The conferences Big Five met for
the fifth time in three days. But
the voting issue, including Russia's s
proposal that big power be allow
ed to veto discussions of disputes
by the security council of the new
peace organization, was not even
slated for discussion. The United
States. Great Britain, China and
France had abandoned any idea
of resorting to an immediate show
down vote on the matter and were
awaiting Moscow's reply to their
adamant refusal to compromise it.
Nor was the issue discussed during
a two-hour morning session of the
U. S. delegation. The interim COM
mission contemplated under the
resolution approved by the delega-
ton would not exercise any func-
tions of the security organization
but would arrange the calling of a
meeting of its members and prepare
other plans for putting the security
organization into operation.
