responsibilities impose on us all In
this historic hour, that this treaty
! is a hard treaty indeed yet, if it
were truly constructive instru-
ment of international cooperation
| the sacrifice which my country is
called upon to make might find its
compensation.
He said that part of the proposed
italian pacts preamble which says
Whereas. under the pressure OF
military events, the Fascist regime
/ in Italy was overthrown." was a
"slur" ignoring the role played by
Italian patriots.
With regard to reparations, he
said, Italy though prepared for
all necessary sacrifices must make
it clear that she cannot underwrite
them for an indefinite period"
Russia would get Sl00000,000 in
reparations, with the bills of other
nations still to be determined.
! Moreover. with reference to
ceded territories, the enormous Ital-
/ ian outlay invested in public works
and in the cultural and material
advancement of those regions must
be held in due account" he said.
Should the clauses of the treaty
as they now stand be imposed on
us in their full crude meaning, we
would, in signing. pledge ourselves
to something beyond our capacity

The morning session at which Mr.
Molotov walked from the room
ended in a scene of disorder as
Soviet Delegate Andrei Y. Vishinsky
sought to hold the floor against the
will of the chairman.
/ H. V. Evatt, the Australian dele
gate, protested that Mr. Vishinsky
was granted the floor out of order
and charged the Soviet delegate with
wanting to gag the conference.
Mr.. Vishinsky rose to reply and
Chairman Bidault tried to speak at
the same time, finally shouting i've

Mr.. Vishinsky," the chairman
said, Il am compelled to ask respect
for the privileges of the chair-the
chair which will soon be occupied
by the Soviet delegate"
Wanted to Withdraw Motion.
The misunderstanding apparently
was caused by language difficulties
resulting in Mr.. Vishinsky getting
the floor. 1t developed that he
wanted to withdraw a motion for
closing the debate on Albania and
in his anxiety to get his point across
to Mr.. Evatt kept on speaking.
Mr.. Molotov, after listening to q
part of Greek Premier Constantin
Tsaldaris' argument that Albania
had delivered support" to the Ital-
ians and was not qualified to sit in
the conference, walked out of the
chamber when Mr.. Tsaldaris men,

British Claim Charter
Permits Move in Iran
To Protect Interests
By tine Associoied Press


circles today said that if Britain
moved troops into oil-rich Iran to
protect British subjects and prop
erty such action would be in full
accord with the United Nations
Charter.
These informants said Britain
would consider any attack on British
subjects or property as an attack
on Britain and that threatened
military action might be taken in
self defense under Article 81 of
the Charter.
This, it was explained, was what
British Foreign Office spokesman
had in mind when he said in Lon
don yesterday that Britain was
ready to take action herself to
quell any violent or sudden" threat
to her interests.
Delegates Voice Surprise.
Although u N. delegates were re-
/ luctant to comment on the British
threat, some of them privately ex-
I pi CooSb odl vi az SuIIl SGd GC-
ment. u N. circles generally agreed
with the comment made in London
| by Secretary General Trygve Lie
that if British troops crossed the
! Iran border it would be a case for
/ the Security Council.
Under a strict Interpretation of
the charter, it would be possible to
bring the situation before the
Security Council without waiting for
the British to move, but there was
no indication that such action was
contemplated at this time.
| Article "a of the Charter says:
THE Security Council may in
vestigate any dispute. or any situ-
alton which might lead to inter-
national friction or give rise to a
dispute, in order to determine
whether.the continuance of the dis
pute or situation is likely to en-
danger the maintenance of inter-
national peace and security"
Big Legal Issue Seen.
Although no delegate would COM
ment Immediately on the British
Interpretation of Article 81, it ap-
peared almost certain that If the
/ case ever came before the Council
/ it would raise an important legal
issue over the meaning of the word
attack"
| The first sentence of this arti-
Gle says Nothing in the present
Charter shall impair the inherent
right of individual Or collective self
defense if an armed attack occurs
| against q member of the United
Nations, until the Security Council
has taken the measures necessary
/ to maintain international peace and
security
| The question thus raised Is
| whether an attack on the subjects
or property of member state
within another state, constitutes an
attack on the nation itself under
the meaning of the charter.

AS a result of the so-called
"phony" lam strike, workers in
the garages are turning to the
UAW-CIO in increasing number
and every evidence is that the
lam has damaged itself by its
inconsiderate treatment of the
garage mechanics in preventing
them from working in order to

Walter MadrzykoWski, Inter

ganization, today reported that
membership in the UAW-CIO "is
increasing by leaps and bounds"
He added, "The lam helped the
garage mechanics by proving
that everything we said about
them was true, and it did us a
favor by helping us show the
garage workers that the lam is

WASHINGTON, October %
.LPA)-The charge that Senator
Theodore Bilbo ID, MisS.) had
received a $4,000 contribution
from a Mississippi war contrac-
tor was being probed by the
Senate War Investigating Com
mittee. No date for hearing on
the charges against Bilbo, made
by Ross Collins, former mem
Der of Congress from Mississippi
and opponent of Bilbo for the
Senate seat, has been set by the
Committee although inveStiga-
tions are now going on in Bilbo's
state.
Meanwhile the U. S. Supreme
Court refused to grant an in
junction to prevent the seating
of Bilbo next January as Missis-
sippi Senator. The injunction
was sought by James L. P.
Rumble of New York, on the
grounds that Bilbo had urged
the disenfranchisement of the
Negro.

"The President has issued a

ty dominated by the meat trust

that whatever meat does come to
the American dinner table will
be at higher prices, above the

to all citizens: on the day before

price is too high for you to pay
don't blame your butcher. Blame

There is no reason why wage
increases so badly needed, now
that the pay envelope was rob-
bed by the soaring cost of living,
cannot be given without further
rise in prices. The unconscion
able profits gained during war

than an ample fund to permit
American workers to get meat

made unreachable by higher

president explained that the
company had rejected all wage
increase considerations ap-
parently in the hope that the
union was willing to give up
security clauses in their con-
tract.
He said: "the maintenance of
membership clause which the
company has now rejected was
in our former contract put there
by order of the War Labor
Board. Further irritation was
given to our members when the
checkoff system which was in
use for months was suddenly
terminated by the company
without notice to the union. In
addition to these things, one OF
our stewards was unjustly dis
charged by the company who
also refused to return two en-
ployes to work according to
their seniority dates"
Bugbee Is Denounced
Denunciation of Attorney
Harry Bugbee was expressed by
NANNY Lambright, Local IT'S re-
cording secretary who accused
the company representative OF
attempting to force a yellow
dog" contract on the union
"The worst part was that Bug
bee told us that If we agreed to
the contract he was trying TO
put over on us that he might be
willing to talk business he
said.
Lambright said that no gen
eral wage increases had been
granted to company employees
since August 18, l94l despite
the fact that 1874 cent increases
were granted to workers in all
sections of the country early
this year.

tanned at the companys plant

complete support of other CIC

Explains To Public
Harry Curry in an explana-
tion of the strike to the people
of Fostoria made the following
statement.
The people of Fostoria are
entitled to know that the union
did not want this strike. 1t was
forced upon us by the company.
Our union is made up of re-
sponsible citizens of Fostoria
who are merely attempting TO
secure sufficient wages TO live
on and decent working condi-
tions in our plant.
We had no alternative except
to 90 on strike when the Seneca
Wire Co. management refused
all our requests, placed insur-
mountable obstacles in the way
of our contract discussions and
made II quite evident that the
only thing they desired was to
destroy our organization.
Il want to assure the people
OF Fostoria that we are going to
stick to our principles and fight
for the things TO which we are
in all justice entitled. l hope
that they will give us theiI
moral support and recognize
that our wages play q most i'm,
portsnt part in the life ano
business of this community"

We've been eleven years climbing out Of the hole
Toledo was i'm after the long period of inefficient
city government under political 2l'man council
regime. We had back'breaking debt, rundown
equipment and discouraged employees. Do you
want TO slide back into that hole?
DO we want TO the revenues from the income
tax wasted by return of the spOils system? Do
we want to 20 back to where we started from In
1886? If don't want such troubles to return,
we don't want the Gutteau plan.
It would be a calamity for Toledo TO lose all IL has
gained through its efficient city manager small
council form of government and by going back to
the old system.
Surely we don't want every paving block, every
foot of fire hose, everything the city buys, to cost
more-as IL will-if the political spoils system Is
returned TO power.
Under the old political Gilman council system,
after almost every election we had different faces
I'm most places unframed help and about One-third
much work dOne-and we taxpayers had to pay
for It,
We will have sectional pickering IL we go back TO
the bargain price cOuncilmen who In many cases
had their eyes focused on whatever other cOmpen-
satiOn they could get rather than on the meager
salaries they were paid
In my belief, the present form of government is
the best Toledo has ever known. 1t probably needs
a few adjustments, but as a whole has set out
standing record for saving money and the retire
ment of debt.
Toledo now enjoys one of the highest ratings Al
the last ten years with the federal agencies IN
such conditions as social hygiene, and has reduced
It's vice to a minimum
Many good men were elected to council undfr the
old Gilman council plan, but some have ytbld me
frankly that they wished they had been given the
opportunity to under the present system.
They recognized how badly they were handicapped
I'm trying to do good job because of political con.
troll that exercised while they were In office.
Many of them became Disguised and discouraged
trying to accomplish the things they hoped TO do
when they for office, because of the handicaps
they constantly encountered.
Opposition to our present government claims that
voters don't care how man running for office
thnks-Only where he lives. But IL you anaIyze
the votes under the present system you will find
that most citizens do not vote primarily for a man

on the level, with no behind the.scenes fnagIing.
Under the old system, a lot of trivial things took
up the time of council, things which should never
come before them any more than all the details
of business need to be argued out before the
board of directors. Under the old system you
always had special groups seeking special favOrs.
The result was that the big council didn't have
time enough by far to consider properly the ma Or
improvements which affect ALL the people, and it
took lot longer to get things done than 1t does
today The ward councilman who got the most
street lights for his neighbOrhOOd was the best
councilman Today our traffic and street lights
