RUSSIA BALkS VOTE PLAN AT
 PEACE TABLE
MoIotov Criiitizes Byrnes Support of Move = Says
 Took Him by Surprise

PARIS, Aug 5.-Soviet Russia baked today at British-Ameri- can proposal to compromise the peace conference dispute over vot- ing procedure.
 Foreign Minister " M. Molotov told the rules commission that the proposal was objectionable because it was calculated to upset the de- cision of the Council of Foreign Minister and replace it with a new one
 The council had decided to make a two-thirds majority necessary for action in the peace conference Small nations. paced by Australia, sought simple majorities. The Brit ish then proposed to let the con- ference speak for itself, with two- thirds vote to be regarded as "a firm recommendation" and simple majorities to carry less weight with the Foreign Ministers Council, which will have final veto power over peace conference actions.
 The United States, through Sec retary of State Byrnes, joined China, Canada and Norway today in supporting the British comprom- ise.
 Molotoy's rejection of the plan followed a similar stand by White Russia.
 Molotov said Byrne's support of the Canadian proposal that the Council of Foreign Ministers meet concurrently with the conference took me by surprise" for the Rus sian delegation proposed that at the Council Of Foreign Ministers July 8
 MT Byrnes said that it would be impossible, Molotov said We oan only believe that when the So- 1iet delegation presents something it is senseless to MT Byrnes But when someone else presents it, is is intelligent"

 Rivers also. had predicted his solution upon legislation requiring that contractual obligations be binding upon both labor ond man. agement
 Anderson Testifies
 Anderson, proposed that the War Shipping Administration should continue to operate Alaska ships until the present mess" is straight ened out. Subsidy to the operators as things are now would only be subsidization of existing malprac- tices, he maintained. What is need ed is responsibility upon labor and control over the men employed by ship operators.
 As testimony was developed this morning, cargo pilfering began to stand forth as perhaps the greatest single evil in the Alaska shipping picture, carrying with it attendant greatly increased costs and diff culties for Alaskan merchants. Pil- ferage was pictured as almost en- tirely postwar development, but one which already has attained very serious proportions. Southeast AL aska witnesses, almost 100 percent, complained of pilferred shipments Anderson avowed that the addi- tional time and pilfering opportun- ity on the way to Seward, results in three-fold pilferage of cargoes for the Interior
 Anderson declared:
 1.-AlaSka's 25 million dollal mining industry cannot absorb ar increase in present shipping rates
 2.-Miners feel that already they are paying too much for what they get, They are not getting service as the lines are now operating.
 Witnesses for the ship companies were to be heard this afternoon.
