10 Enlarge Council

SAN FRANCISCO. April Is
(INS)-The voices OF the small
nations were lifted at the United
Nations conference today in a
plea TO the great powers TO give
them equality in the new world
peace organization.
T. v. Soong. China's foreign
minister, one Of the conferences
four presidents, conducted the
third plenary session. Earlier he
had warned the little nations that
they, like China, must be pre-
pared TO sacrifice some sovereign
rights to gain the security Of
future peace.

tions, however. plainly indicated
they would like 10 modify some
parts OF the Dumbarton Oaks for
nula for peace, which gives the
big Powers dominant roles.

small nations a larger voice in
its deliberations.
Meanwhile. the possibility Of a
deal which would enable Argen-
tina TO be invited to the confer
ence was hinted by an authorita-

5 MAJOR PROBLEMS

facing the molders Of future peace
were:
A sweeping worldwide dis

territory and former inundated
League of Nations areas.
. Widespread revolt among
small powers against the veto
authority given the five great
powers in the proposed security

ing the Chapultepec inter- Amer

half. He specializes in tomato Juice

Retailers to
Bow to OPA

Lansing, June 2s-AP-Officials
Of the Michigan Retail Grocers and
Meat Dealers Association yester-
day voted to withdraw their reso-
luton that after July l members Of
the association would not abide by
what they. termed arbitrary cell
ing prices"
The action came during a meeting
of the board Of directors Of the as.
ISOLATION and officials from the
Office Of Price Administration
(OPA) regional office in Cleveland
Francis O'Brien, regional direc-
tor OF the OPA food unit enforce
ment division. said that II the
resolution were carried out It would
be considered conspiracy against
the government and that the OPA
would have no alternative but to
prosecute
The association had passed the
resolution because 1t contended
OPA ceiling prices on produce its
members sold were based upon min
imum net weights above those ac-
tually existing. The association
maintained the discrepancy exist
ed because the 0PA did not enforce
proper weights at produce termin-
ais.
Ray Seamans, head OF the pro-
duce section OF the OPA regional
office, told association members
present that weights Of produce at
Detroit had been checked for two
days recently and that more con-
talners were found to be over
weight than underweight.
