Charter Ratification
By Britain Held Near
As Debate Is Resumed

LONDON, Aug. 23.--Early and

the United Nations Charter was
forecast today as Parliament pre-
pared to resume at 2:15 pm. ts:l5

with solemn warnings of the vast
potentialities Of the atomic bomb.
Some members advocated interna-
tional control of the weapon during
yesterdays discussion, in which
leaders Of both major parties had
Joined In urging Britain to throw
her weight into the international
organization for the preservation Of
peace.
Laborite H. l.. Austin and Sir
Arthur Salter, Independent, urged
international control of the bomb.
Mr.. Austin expressed anxiety about
its possession by the United States
because 1T might eventually come to
be invested In Wall Street and not
in the people Of America"
Sir Arthur said the military pro-
visions OF the Charter would seem
obsolete in the light Of the new
weapon unless 1t was controlled.
In the House of Lords, Lord
Jowitt, the new lord chancellor, said
the secret of the bomb could not be
kept indefinitely, and that an at
tempt to keep it would only en-
courage research in methods of de-
struction by every nation.
Former Foreign Secretary An
thony Eden, now a member of the
opposition In Commons, said that il
controversies could be solved ami
cably among nations through
world league, perhaps we need not
worry about the atomic bomb"
Even the new speakers who criti-
cized the world security plan drawn
up at San Francisco gave no indica-
ton Of an intention to vote against
it. Scarcely voice was raised
against the Charter, hailed by Prime
Minister Attlee as a great instru-
ment for world peace.

there is every prospect that ratifi-
cation will be unanimous.

American 5 Freedoms
For World Air Routes
Believed Abandoned
BIZ the Associated Press.

MONTREAL, Aug. 23. The
American-sponsored "fiye freedoms
proposal for regulating interna-
tional air transport, which has been
the most contentious single issue
facing postwar aviation planners, is
likely to be abandoned, 1t was
learned today.
This would represent victory for
Great Britain, which has held out
in opposition to the United States
on this problem, the main stumbling
block to agreement at the world
civil aviation parley in Chicago last
fall.
Whatever hopes the United States
may have had of making its views
prevail have died at the current ses-
sion here of the Interim Council OF
the Provisional International Civil
Aviation Organization-the tenn
porary body being set up under the
Chicago agreements.
The American proposal, which has
won little support among the So
nations working together to build
a world civil air organization. may
be rewritten in compromise form,
however, at a new Chicago confer
ence" in miniature.
Eight Nations Back u. s.
| The key issue Of contention Is
the so-called fifth freedom, which
would permit commercial airlines
to pick up and discharge pas
sengers' and freight in countries
lying between points Of departure
and destination.
Opponents maintain this would
give an undue advantage to the
Americans, who admittedly hold a
whip hand in the matter of equip
ment for operating world services

When q serviceman presented a
Government order, the waiter or
steward would make j. -. for the

the sailor or soldier had the least

doing this, the steward could cover
meals served to other passengers

Deaths Of 1000 Jews
Blamed on QuisIinq
Al treason Trial
Ey the Associated Press.

Ls tHe hssOCihleu fTeSS.
OSLO. Aug. 23.-A pale Jewish
doctor still bearing the marks of a
German concentration camp told
the court at Vidkun Quisling's trial
today that CT nearly 1000 Nor
wegian Jews sent to Poland, only
II were known to have survived.
Quisling, Germany's puppet ac-
cused of treason, is charged with the
murder of the nearly 1000 Jews
on the grounds of responsibility for
their deportation.
DR.. George Eichinger, a German
born Jew sent to a German concen-
tration camp. said only 600 of Nor
ways 1000 Jews escaped the Ger
man dragnet and the average dura-
bility of men sent to the Auschwitz
camp in Poland was only one month.
Out of 267 in the group In which
he was deported, 140 were sent to
gas chambers Immediately and
killed, he declared.
Quisling Renews DeniaIs.
Another states witness today said
that Quisling in 1925, when he was
a captain in the Norwegian Army
offered to spy on the Norwegian
general staff and organize a red
guard. The witness said the offer
was made in a discussion with a
Communist party editor
Quisling, pale and agitated, in
sisted he never had heard of the
German gas chambers, and also
denied a state accusation that he
had embezzled government funds.
Testifying on the fourth day of his
trial, Quisling told the court that by
payments to the Germans he was able
to keep 10000, 900 krone from get
ting into their hands. CThe krone
was valued at IS cents before the
war; A salary of 1000 900 for him.
self and several millions for 40
guards at his estate, he said, should
be considered just a sum to cover
expenses in his duties as leader Of
the state.
Witnesses Brought In.
After Prosecutor Annaeus Schjoedt
had completed his questioning on
the embezzlement count, the first
state witnesses entered the court
and were instructed by Presiding
Judge Erik Solem. These included
about go Norwegians. 20 of them
Quishng adherents and under ar
rest, and several German officers.
A German formerly attached tc
the Reich commissariat said he had
heard that German Liaison Officer
Scheidt had gone over the head OF
German Minister Kurt Brauer and
negotiated with Quisling in forming
new government on the first day
of the German invasion of Norway
Another witness testified thai
Quisling talked Adolf Hitler into
invading Norway and that Hitler
felt grateful to Quisling for the
initial success of the venture.
This witness, German closely
attached to Gauleiter Josef Terbov-
en-, said Terboven was so disgusted
with Quisling and Quisling's influ-
ence with Hitler that he often ex-
pressed a desire to take over the
job of running England after the
planned invasion of that country
in 1910.

mand even under conditions of full
employment"
The National Farmers Union,
through its president, James G. Pat
ton also indorsed the bill. but took
the view it does not go far enough.
II Congress decides this is as. far
as it wishes to go. his organization
will accept that verdict, Mr.. Patton
added
Separate Legislation Needed.
However" he continued. I'VE feel
that the original proposal of the
National Farmers Union for bill
that not only would declare policy
and set up the means of guarantee
ing full employment, but that would
actually underwrite it. with appro-
priations authority, is still the de-
sirable step to take"
As the bill now stands Congress
would have to pass separate legis-
lation when and il 1t decided a
Federal public works program was
needed to provide full employment.
Mr.. aPtton suggested another
amendment under which the Presi-
dent would include in mis- annual
report to Congress an estimate of
the amount of consumer income
that would be available, along with
the estimates OF production and en-
ployment in private industry.
Sees Menace In Idleness.
The committee was told by Bishop
G. Bromley Oman, president OF the
Federal Council of Churches, that
full employment can be planned
and freedom can be maintained. y
The witness, who lis bishop OF the
Methodist Church, New York City
continued:
This bill provides every oppor-
tunity for solution within the sys-
tenn OF free enterprise, but, in the
event Of emergency. when the op-
portunity to work is at jeopardy
constructive proposals are made
which I believe will make funda-
mental contribution to the mainte-
nance OF the basic right to work. ;
Further on in his statement, the
bishop de Nared:
Il have not discussed the bill In
economic terms. I note that these
aspects have been presented bril-
liantly by others. I have seen the
result of unemployment as a min
ister, social worker, an educator
I know of no factor more menacine
to the republic than that Of mass
unemployment. This bill is no,
only an expression of sound ethical
ideals, Of common sense and oi
JUSTICE, but is fundamental to the
preservation of the republic ITSELF
Murray Makes Strong Plea.
One of the strongest demands for
prompt action by Congress on post
war employment legislation came
yesterday from President Philip
Murray Of the Congress Of Indus
trial Organizations, who Endorsed
the full employment bill as only
one of half dozen steps that should
be taken without delay. His other
proposals included early action on
