LONDON, Oct. 28.-Prime Min
lister Attlee denied fatty today
that Foreign Secretary Bevin had
pledged Britain to acknowledge
Egyptian sovereignty over the

He told Commons that talks last
week between Bevin and Egypt's
Prime Minister Sidky Pasha were
conducted on the understanding that
they did not commit either govern

tions included the relationship of
Great Britain and Egypt to the

Sudan is contemplated and no i'm
pairment of the right of the Su-
danese people ultimately to decide
their own future" Mr.. Attlee said.
Mr.. Attlee refused to give details
of the Bevin-Sidky Pasha talks,
commenting that they were ION a
personal and exploratory basis and
were not negotiations.
II can only regret, therefore, that
incomplete reports from Egypt have
appeared in the press" the Prime
Minister added.
Those reports dealt with only iso-
lated aspects of the talks without
reference to a whole range of other
matters dealt within the CONVEX

.ProducersAct
To Avert Boost
In Milk Prices
Anderson Petitioned
To Eliminate Link
With Butter Costs

The Maryland and Virginia
Milk Producers Association to-
day acted to avert a threatened
1-cent-a-quart increase in the
retail price of milk here starting
November /.
Bruce B. Derrick, manager of the
Association, disclosed the group had
petitioned Secretary of Agriculture
Anderson to eliminate provision
in the milk marketing order for this
area which ties in the price of milk
with the price of butter.
The provision, which went into
effect September IA, provides an
automatic increase of 40 cents a
hundred pounds for fluid milk, when
the wholesale price of butter aver
ages 81 cents a pound for the last
10 trading days in october. Butter
has been averaging "a cents pound
wholesale.
Consumption Cut Feared.
Mr.. Derrick conceded that any
further increase in the price of milk
here would kill consumption, just
| as it did in meat"
He also disclosed producers con-
Germ over falling milk production,
admittedly resulting from higher
prices, since ceilings on dairy prod
ucts ended in July.
Mr.. Derrick promised there would
be no further increase in the price
of milk unless production costs7ro
| further. At the same time, he said,
producers hope for lower produc-
ton costs in the near future
The official pointed out that milk
here was only half cent above the
old ceiling price, plus a Scent sub
sidy which is no longer paid pro-
ducers.
Home delivered milk is now 10
cents a quart, while milk sold in
some stores is 171a cents.
i Below Other Cities.
j Even so, Mr.. Derrick added, milk
prices here today are below those
of other cities.
/ Mr.. Derrick tlod of an 1l,000-
gallon dairy drop in milk consump-
\ LlOn mere uullliS CulS, olo diloIiASA
5,OO0-gallon fall during August.
Some of this, he said, was due to
consumers being on vacation, since
September figures show some rise
in consumption.
However, about all of the mid
summer loss has been recouped, Mr..
Derrick admitted.
I'VE anticipate favorable action
in time to prevent an increase to
consumers November l." Mr.. Der
rick said in commenting on the
, petition.
An Agriculture Department Off
cial said, however, that it was not
, known at this time what action the
| secretary would take on the petition.
The producer group from the out
, set opposed the amendment tying
in milk prices with butter prices,
the producers spokesman said. 1t
was pointed out that the amend
ment is in effect in other areas
where there are Federal milk mar
keting agreements.

After the tear gas barrage had

again broke it up.
A short time later, inside the

sat side by side on bench built
for two, signifying the joint gov

Truman Again Urges
Entry Of
Jews Into Palestine
Stond on Refugees Not
Hostile to Arobs. He
Tells King Ibn Soud

President Truman today re-
Iiterated his belief that steps
should be taken to insure imme-
diate substantial immigration of
refugee Jews into Palestine.
The, Presidents views were con-
tanned in message dispatched to
King Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia in
which Mr.. Truman said he does not
consider his stand for increased i'm
migration of Jews into Palestine lin
any sense" hostile to the Arabs.
The message was in reply to an
October Is letter from King Ibn
Saud contending that the Presi-
dents statement October 4, favoring
immediate entry of at least 100000
Jews into Palestine, violated pre-.
vious United States promises to the
Arabs. s &,.,s<.. a.ss.
U. S. Opposed to Terrorism.
Mr.. Truman said he was "at a
loss" to understand the Kings feel
ing that the United States was 60
ing back on its promises to the
Arabs. He recalled that this Gov
ernment has given assurances that
it will not take any action hostile to
the Arab people. and that it believed
there should be no basic decision in
Palestine without prior consultation
with both Arabs and Jews. He
pointed out there have been a num-
ber of such consultations within the
last year.
Mentioning fears expressed by the
Arab King that the Jews might use
force and violence in aggressive
schemes against Arab countries
neighboring Palestine, Mr.. Truman
said he is convinced responsible
Jewish leaders do not contemplate
aggression against the Arabs. He
added that the United States stands
opposed to aggression of any kind
or to the employment of terrorism
for political purposes.
Common Responsibility"
The President asserted sit is only
natural" for the United States to
favor greater immigration into Pal
estine of Jewish refugees from Eu-
rope mot only that they may find
shelter there but also that they may
contribute their talents and ener-
gies to the upbuilding of the Jewish
national home"
He recalled that the United States
has supported the Jewish national
home project ever since the end of
World War I.
Declaring that the tragic situa-
ton" of Jewish refugees in Europe
cannot be ignored by people of good
will or humanitarian instincts" the
President told King Ibn Saud he
behaves "all of us have common
responsibility" in trying to find new
homes for victims of Nazi persecu-
tion.
