Control Period
For 0PA Faces
Fight in House

WASHINGTON, June %. CUP)-
With $50 house members answering
the days first roll-call, administra-
ton leaders Saturday professed
new hope that the house would ex-
tend the price control act without
any major changes.
IT think the bill will come
through in fine shape" one leader
said.
The house is considering a bill to
extend the price control act for one
year. Friday with 287 members on
the floor, Republicans obtained a
favorable vote to shift virtually all
food controls, except rationing, from
OPA to the department of agricul-
ture.
The amendment, suggested by for
mer President Hoover, in letter
to Rep. Thomas Jenkins, (R.), Ohio
was approved by a teller vote of
las to 142. Democratic leaders i'm
mediately sent out urgent calls for
abSentees to attend Saturdays ses-
sion. They hoped to muster enough
strength to knock out the so-called
Hoover Amendment" before the
bill is finally put to vote.
The house turned down by voice
vote the first amendment offered
today. 1t was a proposal by Rep
Jerry Voorhis, CD, Calf, to compel
OPA to cancel price ceilings on any
commodity when the supply of that
commodity exceeds the demand.

MEA TSHORTAGE MAY
CUT TROUT CULTURE

ALBANY, N. T., June %. CUP)-
Human beings are not the only ones
affected by the current meat short
age.
According to latest reports of the
New York state conservation depart
ment, hatchery trout are being Sc
riously affected by the lack of meat
in their diet. Menus for the fish in
New Yorks hatcheries are varied
according to conditions, but almost
all of them contain at least so pei
cent meat. When the amount OF
meat in the diet is reduced much
below so per cent, the fish don't
grow.
The feed situation is becoming SC
serious, says Sumner Cowden, super
lntendent of fish culture in the
conservation department, that the
department may be forced to cut its
propagation program drastically.

Strikes Hold Out

Dor department conciliation service
director, said at Washington that
the number of strikes had jumped
since May from a peak average
of 20 a day during the European
war to from three to so a day.
Colvin said many wartime work
Stoppages have been of a trivial

ers have given for strikes.
CITES CAUSES OF STRIKES
Colvin said basic causes of many
walkouts included workers feeling
less responsible for staying on the
job in view of large scale cancella-
tions of war contracts; war nerves,
and hot weather.
Chicago truck drivers continued
to trickle back to their jobs, as the
Office of Defense Transportation
sought to end the city's second truck
tie-up in six weeks. This strike, in
its second week, involved 10000
drivers
Two of the nations strikes were
called in protest against the meat
shortage. Approximately 5000 work.
ers at the aircraft plant of the
Briggs Manufacturing Company, De-
troit, quit over the absence of meat
in their sandwiches. Three hundred
Bell County, KY, coal miners also
protested the shortage.
DETROIT WALKOUTS
Detroit, the nations arsenal city,
was plagued with large scale strikes
at Packard's main aircraft motor
plant, the Budd Wheel Company
Ford River Rouge plant, Chrysler
Corp, and Bendix Aviation, carbur-
etor division, as well as the Briggs
plant. More than $4,000 workers
were out.
Strikes also idled 1900 workers at
Monsanto Chemical Company, Mon
santo, ILL.,; $500 at Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio: 20,-
600 at Pittsburgh Plate Glass Com
pany and Libbey- Owens Ford plants

World Charter
Waits Signing

strained Big Three relations. The
big powers have shown here that
they can sit around a table and
thresh out difficult problems.
WILL TO SUCCEED
Despite outside controversies and
countless other .'criSes" involving
the charter itself, the conference
has plodded on to a successful con-
clusion. The disagreements and
battles have been overcome by the
calm determination on the part of
delegates to succeed. The people of
the world demanded another at
tempt to create a successful inter-
national organization; their repre-
sentatives here dared not fail
The language job was one of the
most difficult because each sentence,
each phrase, each word and each
punctuation mark must mean ex-
actly the same thing in each lang
uage. Once the charter is signed, it
will be too late to discover that a
certain phrase means one thing to
the English -pseaking world and
something different to the Spanish
speaking peoples.
The details of the charter have
been revealed piecemeal during the
weeks of debate. They follow the
Dumbarton Oaks plan which was
framed by the Big Four last sum-
mer, but have been broadened far
beyond the hopes of many at the
start of the conference.
COALITION OF BIG POWERS
The keystone of the new organiza-
ton still remains the coalition of
the big powers-the United States,
Great Britain, Soviet Russia, China
and France On them will fall the
responsibility for keeping the peace
To them will go the special privi-
leges of the organization.
The most important part of the
organization is the security council,
composed of IL nations with the Big
Five as permanent members. 1t will
be the policemen" of the new world
order. The members will make
available to it vast military forces
and vast powers to seek peaceful
settlements, the council will be re-
sponsible for upholding the major
purpose of the new organization
maintenance of peace and security
The security council will be con-
stantly on the job. 1t is hoped that
with its great powers and resources
it will be able to cope with all dis
putes long before they get to the
shooting stage But if shooting starts
this organization will have the
means to shoot back-if the Big Five
are willing to do so.
