MYSTERY CL0AKINC.
ARAB GRAND MUTT
Friends Declare Mufti De-
liberately Covering
Footsteps

JERUSALEM, June 15-(P)-Dr.
Izzat famous, secretary of the
Arab Higher committee, said to-
day he believed the whereabouts
of the Mufti of Jerusalem will
continue to be a mystery. I be-
lieve the Multi does not want
anyone to know where he is-not
ven Arabs"
Asked whether the Multi, Hal
Amin Ell Husseini, might be in
Saudi Arabia, famous replied:
that would be the safest place for
him. At least there any Jews who
wish to do him harm could not
reach him."
famous expressed belief that
not even Jamal Husseini, the Muf-
It's cousin and repeatedly his best
friend, knew where the Mutt was.
He said also that he did not be-
lieve that any actions taken at the
Bluden, Syria, conference of the
Arab league this week we're in
spired by the Mufti's personal di-
rection, but said the news of the
Mufti's escape was simply a great
exciting event which brought
(Arab) unity out into the open in
the form of universal celebrations
and displays throughout the Arab
world"
1t was unlikely, famous con-
tinued, that the Mufti's wife, who
has remained in a simple home
inside the walls of the old city of
jerusalem since his exile in 1887,
had received word of his where
abouts.
famous declared the Mutt "is
truly a great and cultured man
with the most charming personal
ity I have ever known"
The Mutt now is SO, exercises
daily and is lean and strong, he
continued.
famous said that in Palestine
alone the Mufti is considered by
more than 80 per cent of Moslems
as their spiritual leader. A small
number r. d~issenters because Of
personal differences and selfish
reasons" he added.

things we must have" Wallace
continued in an address prepared
for delivery at a forum of the
American Veterans Committee con-
vention.
In commencing the AVG for it's

In a statement, he assailed those

Economic stablizer Chester Bow
les said in a radio address (ABC)
that price stability is needed now

cellent start on full production from
going into a tailspin."
He said that If present price
controls 7 maintained, the mar
ket will be flooded by Christmas
with goods for which the American
people have been waiting since the
war ended.
Porter and Bcwles voiced their
appeals as senate-house conferees
on the denatured OPA extension
bill tentatively scheduled their first
meeting for Wednesday.
The senate and house have ap-
proved different, but equally dras-
tic powers and abolish a number
of price controls. but leave rent
controls intact. Under the senate
bill, price controls on meat poul-
try, milk and tobacco would be
abolished after June 30.
Authoritative sources said that
unless the conferees approve an
effective price control extension
bill, President Truman will veto
It.
A majority Of the senate-house
conferees planned to insist on re-
storing some price control powers
which the senate has strapped.
Porter charged that the enemies
of price control were attempting
"to drug the people of this country
into either a false sense of security
or a mood of defeatism."
Suggestions that the repeal OF
price control would not result in

He recalled that retail prices and
rents more than doubled during the

half OF the increase occurred after
the armistice.
"The federal reserve board has
estimated that inflationary pres
sures this time are 8 to 10 times
as strong as those which sent prices
through the roof in 1919 and 1920"
he said.
