Declaring that Yamashita was an
adherent of the ancient Samurai

In ordering Yamashita's hanging

that the Jap had dishonored the

WORLD RELIEF:
Need Great


In calling upon the American peo-
pie to pull in their belts and get
along on smaller and less varied Sc
lection Of meats, cheese, evaporat-
ed milk, ice cream, margarine,
salad dressing and beverages, Pres
ident Truman declared that the
threat of starvation overseas was
greater today than at any other
time in history.
While Americans have been con-
Stunning about $500 calories per per-
son, he said, more than 1875 million
people in Europe will have to sub
sist on less than 1000 calories day;
% million will receive less than
1900 calories a day, and large
groups will get as little as 1000
calories.
In shaping a nine-point program
to enable this country to meet re-
lief requirements overseas, the adj
ministration placed emphasis upon
conservation of dwindling wheat
supplies to assure fulfllment of ex-
port goals of 225 million bushels.
No less than rs million bushels of
wheat were expected to be saved
during the first half of 1916 by rails
ing the quantity of flour produced
from a bushel of wheat to 80 per
cent. AS result, more dark bread
will be made. Another 20 million
bushels of grain are to be conserved
by disseminating the use of wheat
in the direct production of alcohol
and beer and limiting the use of
other grains for beverage alcohol to
five days consumption per month.
At the same time, the depart
ment of agriculture will seek to cut
down on use of feed grains by en-
couraging the speeding Of market
ing of hogs and beef cattle and GULL
ing of poultry.
The other provisions Of the adj
ministration's nine-point program
include the acceleration of rail ship
ments of wheat, corn, meat and 9TH
er foods; expectation of 375, 900 tons
of fats and oils, 100000, 900 pounds
of meat, and increased supplies Of
canned milk and cheese; establish
ment of wheat and flour inventory
controls on millers, bakers and dis
tributors; and efforts to move more
copra for cocoanut oil from the
Philippines.

a coalition of Republicans and con-

efforts to take the teeth out Of the
legislation by modifying provisions
or eliminating all enabling clauses
to reduce the measure to a mere

FULL EMPLOYMENT:
Water Bill

With Democrats and Republicans
alike expressing agreement, the
house passed diluted version of an
Observation-Disclosures "full employ

ted the government to providing
jobless work at prevailing wages.
AS finally framed by a house
senate conference committee and
pushed through congress, the new
bill sets up council of three eco
nomic advisers delegated to prepare
annual reports on levels of employ
ment, production and purchasing
power and draw up a program for
correcting EMBELLISHMENTS. A con-
gressional committee of seven will
then act upon the recommends
tions.

UNO:

At odds in the United Nations or
ganization over the question of the
presence of British troops in Greece,
Russia and Britain patched up their
differences with acceptance of a
face-saving formula under which the
security council dropped consider
alton of the issue without formal
announcement.
By dropping the question without
further ado, UNO avoided the posi-
bility of impairing the prestige of
Russia by refuting its charges that
the presence of Tommies in Greece
threatened the peace of the world
or of offending Britain by acknowl-
edging the Red accusations.
Russia's charges that the Tom
mics alleged protection of rightist
interests in Greece against leftist
elements would have international
repercussions followed close upon

Top legal body of the United Ma

tional Court Of Justice will include
one American among it's Is men,
bers, Green H. Hackworth of Chevy
Chase, Md, being elected to the
tribunal.
In supplanting the old world court
the new tribunal ranks as the prin-
cipal organ of UNO for resolving
judicial disputes between nations.
In addition, the court can be called
upon to furnish legal advice to ac-
credited UNO agencies.
A legal adviser to the s99te de-
partment since 1925, Hackworth has
participated in many international
conferences. Accompanying Secre-
tary of State Hull to Moscow in 1913,
he subsequently attended the Dunn

Hackworth also is chairman of the

Though admitting that a rise in liv-
ing costs would result from the pol
icy, administration leaders declared
that the volume output following re-
sumption of work would bring prices
to normal, reasonable levels.
In developing the new formula,
President Truman affirmed his be-
lief in previous plan he had pro-
posed under which prices would
have been raised only if industry
had proven it's inability to absorb
wage increases. While the plan
would have worked with full produc-
ton, he said, distractions to large
scale output necessitated a revi-
sion of policy.
