'Tf steel is the backbone Of

steel, then the govern ent

ation," LawrenSon said.

Truman Signs Charter,
Completing Action

The United States today became
the first nation to complete action
necessary to bring the United Ma
tons Organization into force when
President Truman signed the Senate
document ratifying the Charter to
which the representatives of so ma
tions subscribed at San Francisco.
The signing took place in a five
minute ceremony at the White
House. Secretary of State Byrnes
first affixed his signature to the
historic one-page document and
then the President signed, using
three pens which will serve as SOU
venirs of the occasion.
Attached to the instrument of rat.
ifieation are the text of the Charter
and the statute for the World Court.
The documents will be deposited
in the archives of the State Depart
ment where similar documents from
other nations later will have q
place.
Four or five smaller powers also
have ratified the Charter, but their
instruments of ratification have not
yet reached the State Department
and for that reason the United
States gets the honor of being the
first nation to complete the pre-
llminaries.

a Powers Sign Accord
On War Crime Trials
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON, Aug. 8.-Britain,
France, Russia and the United
States today signed an agreement
setting up the machinery for the
trial of Germany's arch war Grim
inals before an international mill
tary tribunal.
Details of the plan were with
held from publication until 5 pm,
Eastern war time, under an ar
rangement for its simultaneous re-
lease here, In Paris, Moscow and
Washington, although news photog-
raphers were summoned to the cere-
monial signing and the London
Evening Standard printed picture
of the event.
Persons in close contact with the
conference, however, previously
have reported that the master plan
for the trial OF the arch criminals
would follow closely the proposals
outlined by Supreme Court Justice
Jackson, chief prosecutor for the
United States.
Under Justice Jackson's plan, the
first mass trial Of major criminals
would be held before a military
tribunal with the indictment based
mainly on the contention that the
waging Of aggressive war consti-
tutes an international crime.
The document was signed as it

Austria Severed
From Reich by
Big 4Powers
Pre-1938 Frontiers
Restored; Joint Rule
Setup Is Prepared
By GARRETT d. HORNER.

The United States, Great Brit
ain, Russia and France today
proclaimed their determination
to separate Austria completely
from Germany and set up joint
control machinery to prepare for
establishment of a freely elect
ed" Austrian government.
Austria was restored to the FROM
tiers that existed before its forced
absorption into the Reich in 1888.
A joint statement said the coun-
try has been divided into four zones
of military occupation, as has
Vienna, its capital. Each of the
four participating Allied countries
will have a military commissioner
exercising supreme authority in
each zone. The four commissioners
will constitute an Allied Council for
coordination of the control of Aus
trla as whole.
Renner Regime to Continue.
The provisional government of DR..
Karl Renner, which came into be-
ing in Vienna with the permission
of the Russian occupation forces
that liberated Austria, but never
has been recognized by the Allies.
is being allowed to continue under
Allied supervision.
One of the principal tasks of the
Allied control authorities, accord
ing to a summary of the joint agree
ment made public by the State De-
partment, will be to secure the
blishment as soon as possible of
central Austrian administrative
machine"
Officials here said this Austrian
administration presumably would be
the Renner government, which does
not yet have the facilities to adj
minister the entire country.
LAS soon as departments of a
central Austrian administration are
in a position to operate Satisfac-
torily," the announcement said.
they will be directed to assume
their respective functions as re-
CARDS Austria as a whole, and will
fulfill them under the control of the
Allied occupation"
Soviet Plan Studied.
The Soviet government submitted
to the recent Big Three Potsdam
Conference proposal for immedi-
ate extension of the Renner gov
ernment's authority to all of Austria,
which the American and British
governments agreed to examine after
entry of their occupation forces into
Vienna.
American occupation forces are
expected to move into their zone of
Austria within a few days. 1t is the
northwestern zone, consisting of the
province of Salzburg and that part
of the province of Upper Austria on
the right bank of the Danube.
