MeutIess Detroiters
Swarm Into Canada

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, June 18.-Meat- hun
CRY Detroiters yesterday swarmed
to Windsor across the river in
Canada, because Of the barren
butcher shops and limited cafe me-
nus in their own town.
Hotels and cafes in the Ontario
city, which is about one-twentieth
Detroit's size, handled virtually
endless crowds of Detroiters over
the week end.
Customs officials reported that
10000 to $4,000 cars. entered Wind
sor during the 46-hour period.
Detroit's meat shortage has be-
come such that the Board of Com
merce is asking a congressional
investigation, and some union rep
resentatives say they fear strikes

Copper Says Senate
Will Rotify Charter
BY the Associated Press.

BY mt Associated PresS.
Senator Capper, Republican, of
Kansas predicted in Washington
last night the Senate will ratify
the charter for the proposed new
world security league with few
if any. reservations.
The exact shaping up of the
5,000-word charter being drawn al
San Francisco probably will not
matter much, so far as Senate
ratification is concerned" Mr. Cap
per, a member of the Foreign Re-
lations Committee, said
Not to ratify the charter would
be taken as an admission that the
United States has expended third
of a trlllion dollars and suffered
more than million casualties
without coming any nearer to end
ing wars than we did when we
participated in World War l."

collection of antique arms. Many

Hitler reached the stage of tell
ing me at last that as a southerner
could not understand how much
he, German, needed to lay his
hands on the Polish forests.
Mussolini Accused
of Shameful Cowardice.
From Salzburg on, until we en-
tered the war, the policy Of Berlin
towards Italy was a network of lies,
intrigue, and deceit. We have never
been treated as partners. but always
as slaves. We were never con-
suited. The most fundamental de-
cisions were communicated to us
only after they had been executed
Only the shameful coWardice of
Mussolini could tolerate and over

The attack on Russia was brought
to my knowledge half an hour after
the German troops had crossed the

plying to ratification of amend
ments.
1t also voted not to have any
specific time set for an interna-
tional conference for reviewing the
charter, but it accepted an Amer
lean proposal that there should be
placed on the agenda of the 10th
annual meeting of the general as
sembly a proposal to hold a re-
viewing conference if one had not
been called before then.
The committee agreed that a de-
cision to hold such a conference
should require only a majority vote
of the assembly and concurrence of
any seven members of the security
council-instead of a two-thirds
vote of the assembly plus seven votes
in the security council. This method
of voting is to apply only in the
10th annual session of the assembly
however.
Specific Cases for Withdrawal.
The same committee voted against
any clause in the charter specifically
permitting withdrawal of members
but agreed to have placed in the
record an Interpretation or state
ment, which would recognize the
right of withdrawal in three specific
cases:
l. If member state feels that the
United Nations has failed to main
tain peace with justice.
2. If the organization adopts any
amendment to the charter which q
member state considers violative OF
its own constitution.
3. If an amendment to the charter
is adopted by reviewing confer
ence and fails to become effective
by reason of a veto exercised by any
of the Big Five.
The committee then approved a
proposal for an expulsion" clause,
to be effective against any outright
violator of the provisions of the
charter. 1t voted % to 3 to insert
such clause, with IA nations alb
staining. 1t next approved a clause
authorizing the suspension of any
member nation against which pre-
ventive or enforcement action is
taken by the security council. On
this the vote was unanimous.
The committee also approved

be possible, which would be an in
fringement of the sovereignty Of
the state concerned.
Mr.. Gromyko contended that such
discussions might cause strained re-

the prospects of the world organi-
cation.
To these arguments Mr.. Evatt re.
piled that the principle lying bacl

Gromyko was mistaken in holding
that the new language would permit
the discussion of matters infringing
on domestic jurisdiction. The char
ter, he pointed out, contained

Mr.. Evatt predicted that if thL

Gromyko replied that would not be
enough. that the ideas in the two
paragraphs were contradictory.
Mr.. Evatts final thrust was that
the big powers have asked the rest
of the small nations to trust them
not to abuse the veto power in the
security council. and that now the
big powers should trust the small
nations not to abuse their powers
in the assembly. He threatened to
revive his old fight against the great
powers veto if Russia had its way in
this matter.
Because Of Russias reopening of
this question of discussion in the
assembly, a plenary commission
meeting to handle this part of the
charter, set for last night, had to
be postponed.
