Officials Show Concern
Over Many Workers
Indifference to Campaign

The Treasury Department to-
day reported that Al per cent of
Washington's $48.OOO,OO0 quota
of series E War Bonds in the
Mighty Seventh" War Loan has
been subscribed and that yester-
day a $2,600,0O0 increase in sales
over the day before was recorded.
Total series E sales now stand
at $22,6OO,OOO.
Similarly, the total of all types of
bonds sold to individuals showed a
rise yesterday, with the total now
at $39, 00,000-or, 558 per cent of
the city's $70,0O0000 quota. The
daily increase was $4,60O,0OO over
Thursday, which the Treasury said
was another record since reporting
started.
Treasury officials planned meet
ing late today to issue statement
to the country on the progress of
the drive. William J. Waller, chair
man of the District drive, has been
repeating during the past week that
I'VE are not over the hump" and
mot enough E bonds are being
bought"
Worried Over Complacency.
The concern of Treasury and Dis
trict officials, it was explained, is
with the complacency of Office work
ers in particular with their bond
buying efforts. These people have
regular bond deductions from their
salaries and consider it enough, Mr..
Waller said. The purpose of the
Mighty Seventh" and of all the
previous drives, he continued, has
been to spur extra buying from
people who buy all year round
This year especially with only one
more war loan planned in the fall,
should produce E bond sales far
surprising those of previous years
when three campaigns were held,
he said.
Instead, E bond sales here have

Meeting Of Allied Generals
In Berlin Is Denied
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, June 2.-Supreme Allied
headquarters today denied reports
circulated in London that Gen.
Eisenhower, Field Marshal Mont
gomery, Marshal zhukov and an un-
named French general would meet
in Berlin this week end to organ
ize an Allied military control COM
mission.
A spokesman in contact with Gen.
Eisenhower's advanced headquar-
ters said the supreme Allied COM
mander knew nothing of such
meeting scheduled for Berlin or any
place else this week end.
Supreme Allied headquarters also
was not yet prepared to announce
the boundaries of final Allied occu-
patton zones in Germany and quoted
the public relations section of the
21st Army Group as saying that
stories outlining the British zone
were unauthorized and premature.

Big Five Facing Crisis
On Russian Veto Stand
BY GOULD LINCOLN,
Star Staff Correspondent.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2.-The
United Nations Conference today
faced perhaps its major crisis as
Russia was reported standing firm
against any relaxation of the Yalta
formula veto powers for the Big
Five in the security council of the
projected world peace organization.
Moscow's long awaited reply to a
request for approval of voting for
mula Interpretation" worked out
here was submitted to other Big
Five delegates last night by Soviet
Ambassador Andrei Gromyko.'
This reply, although its contents
were closely guarded, yields not an
inch on the Yalta agreement en-
tered into by the late President
Roosevelt, British Prime Minister
Churchill and Soviet Premier Stain,
according to inner conference
circles.
Meet Again Today.
The Big Five is meeting again
today, presumably for an intensive
study of the Moscow statement.
The Yalta formula gives each of
the five permanent members of the
security council the right to veto
all decisions except those on purely
"procedurap matters. The perma-
Inent members are the United States,
Britain, Russia, China and France.
An Interpretation of the voting
formula, drawn up in reply to %
questions submitted by medium and
small nations which have been
clamoring for "softening" of the
veto so far as peaceful measures
for settling international disputes
are concerned, had been agreed to
by the United States, Britain, China
and France. Russia submitted it to
Moscow for its consideration.
This Interpretation, which never
was made public, is understood to
have proposed that discussion of in
ternational disputes-which is not
subject to veto-be augmented by
informal investigation.
May Force Redraft.
II Russia sticks to the letter of
the Yalta agreement, as it now ap-
pears she has, even this slight modi-
flcatlon is out. 1t also means that
the Big Five will have to redraft
this interpretive statement on the
voting formula-or break into op-
posing camps. The latter alterna-
tive is not expected. The United
States and Britain have made
point of scrupulously adhering to
the Yalta agreement. It is expected
that China and France will 60 along.
Strict adherence to the voting
formula and its veto powers bv the
Big Five is sure to bring further at
tacks from the medium and small
nations.
Under the leadership of Foreign
Minister Herbert V. Evatt of Au-
stralia, aided by Canada. New
Zealand and many of the Latin
American republics, this fight al
ready has been pressed hars. Their
attacks have been aimed particu-
larly at the veto of investigations in
international disputes and the veto
of proposals to amend the charter
of the new international organiza-
tion.
Outcome in Doubt.
What course these nations will
take in a final showdown on this
issue remains to be seen. It is said
that they do not have sufficient votes
to amend the voting formula. 1t
requires a two-thirds vote to carry
an amendment in the committees
and in the conference itself. It also

Men lmpiicate Others.
1t. Shimon said one of the mer

that Jesse D. Moore, 49, of Falls

clerk at the commissary, "had beer
implicated" by the two men ar
raigned today, as we'll as by three
other drivers. who, like Moore, al
ready are under bond for a hearing

Like the four other defendants
the two drivers were held on charges
OF conspiracy to violate OPA regu.
lations by selling meat without
points and conspiracy to commit lar
ceny from the United States.
The second driver arraigned today
1t. Shimon said, admitted that since
March, certain amounts of meat or
his truck had not been removed
at Fort Myer and later were sole
to District g1ocers.
Meat Recovered.

held under $1,000 bond each.
To date, 1000 pounds of meat
allegedly withheld from commissary
shipments Monday and Tuesday
has been recovered, 1t. Shimor
said.

The case was uncovered through

Following disclosure of the thefts
Fort Myer officials said a Thorough
check of earlier deliveries was being
made by the commissary. They
expressed the belief the thefts were
not of long standing, asserting the
commissary has an. elaborate cos
accounting system which should re.
veal any shortages in deliveries.
