Mayor CurIey Asks Truman ToKiII OPA
 Sees Elimination
 As Means of Easing
 Meot Shortage

Boston, Oct. 2 - (UP) - Mayor James M. Curley of Boston de- manded today that President Tru- man eliminate the OPA as the only means of relieving the meat short age.
 In a letter to the President, Cur ley said you alone can relieve the situation by removing the source responsible, namely the OPA. In the interests of the people of our city and the entire country, sincerely trust that you, as the leader of the nation and still in possession of emergency war powers, will take the required steps to remove the OPA and restore food to which our people are entitled. &"
 Curley, long foe of OPA, was joined in his plea for elimination of price controls by U. s. Rep. Christian A. Herter, (R., Mass) who said Mondays Congressional hearing at the State House show ed there was no alternative but de- control.
 Gov. Charles M Dale of New Hampshire also asked the President to take immediate action. He said failure of OPA and the Decontrol Board has seriously threatened public health" and 'in addition thousands of workers have become idle and thousands of others are threatened with loss of work due to failure of leather markets"
 Gov. Maurice J. Tobin, meanwhile revealed that an Ipswich farmer had made available 26 Hereford cattle to provide beef for state insti- tutions. He said he was negotiating with western cattlemen to insure a continued supply of meat for hos pitals.
 The Governors statewide investi- gation revealed there were 7000,0OO pounds of meat stored in Massa- chusetts, but 100000 pounds of that was destined for soldiers over seas. The remainder, it was pointed out, equaled only about a pound of meat for each Massachusetts citi-
 Ownership of the meat was to be determined today, but there was no indication as to whether Governor Tobln might use his war emerg- ency powers to seize the suplies.

PrGUdG Sees Trial Verdict
 As Big Four Collaboration

London, Oct. 2-CUP)-The Mos COW newspaper Pravda, Communist Party organ, applauded the Nuern- berg trial verdict today as an ex- pression of postwar collaboration among the Big Four.
 Pravda stated in an editorial broadcast by the Moscow radio that tho judgment against the chief NaM defendants will be approved by all progressive humanity. It agreed, however, with the dissent ing opinion by the Soviet justice, Maj.-Gen. I. T. Nikitchenko, that the three acquitted NaziS should have been punished.
 Unanimous condemnation by the court of the most important of the accused -. Qs) an expression of postwar collaboration of the Soviet Union, United States, Britain and France which during the war brought victory over Fascist Ger many and Japan," Pravda said.
 Disagree On Acquittal
 Tt is no coincidence that at the P1NoC44O GA4AAC 14AOl4lC1 WdI trial is taking place in Japan, and the Japanese aggressors await the fate in store for them"
 Pravda said Hjalmar Schacht, Franz von Papen and Hans Fritz sche should have been convicted since the court had in its possess sion sufficiently convincing data which confirmed their guilt"
 With the exception of the Com munist Daily Worker, all London morning newspapers approved the trial verdicts. Most of them said the trial should teach the world to crush embryonic future Hitlers.
 The editor of the Daily Worker said he tore up his editorial be- cause T was wasting words" h. stead, he wrote lengthy piece comparing the Nazi war criminals with George Heath, who recently was convicted of the sadistic sex murder of Margery Gardner. The editor said he was haunted by the thought that Heath, Hitler, Goering and other top Nazis" showed remarkably little differ ence" in their basic attitudes to- ward mankind. He said also that all the defendants should hang and that the acquittals showed "influ- ences of appeasement."

PreSQue Isle, Me, Oct. A(UP)- Aroostook County, the nations larg- est potato producing area, found 8 new customer in the starving peo- ples of Europe as growers started loading the first shipment of 100 carloads of spuds aboard Belgian relief vessel at Searsport.
 Oddly enough, the potatoes will bring relief both to the stricken peoples of Europe and the prosper ouS farmers of ArooStook. Officials of the Maine Potato Growers, Inc, had feared that a goodly share of the estimated 70,000,0 ,000 bushel crop, second largest on record, would rot in the ground because of an expect ed shortage of railroad freight cars. The Belgian shipments will total between 500 and 500 carloads.
 Almost every resident of Aroos- took county, plus some 5000 import ed workers from elsewhere in the United States and Canada, was working furiously to harvest the 1946 crop that will be worth an eS- timated $67, 100000. Some $58,00O,- 900 worth of the potatoes will wind up on the nations dinner tables, while the rest will be cut up as seed in the spring for next years crop.
 Children Help In Harvest
 Even children help in the harvest as most schools remain closed until the spuds are safe from the first heavy frostS. Kicker Classical h. stitute in Houlton opened Sept. 16 but closed five days later when pu- pills stayed away to pick potatoes.
 Three communities in the county decided to remain on Daylight Sav- ing Time until Oct 19 to aid the harvest. They are Presque Isle, Caribou and St. Agatha.
 Thus, every bit of life in Aroos- took, regardless of the season, de- pends on bumper potato crop.
 A Back Breaking Job
 Recognized as a back-breaking job complainers in this department get little sympathy from fellow workers. That is, most of the time.
 Recently, a dozen Cherokee h. dians-imported from Oklahoma complained of sore backs and most farmers in the county Scoffed at them. Carvell Foster, who brought most of the extra help into the county, discovered that the Indians usually make living by breaking in horses. All suffered permanent back injuries from numerous falls from horses. Foster sent the In- dians home.
 Most of the outside help came from the Canadian province of New Brunswick and Quebec and from Southern Maine, Kentucky and Oklahoma. Many are former serv- icemen.
 The Federal Government guaran- tees that farmers will pay pickers 20 cents per barrel without board. But, as the season progresses, many far mers offer workers bonus of three

or four cents barrel if they will stay for the entire harvest.
 New England Champion Picker
 New England champion potato picker since 1897 is John Carney of Mars Hill, who. despite a broken arm, recently filled three barrels with spuds in four minutes and 12 seconds. m
 Last week, Carney and his two sons-ages 13 and 1l-picked l76 barrels in one day. He said his best time was six barrels in five niI1- utes and 32 seconds.
 The Government support price for potatoes is $2.50 per barrel, for ta-s blestock. Farmers get about an ex- tra dollar per barrel for certified seed potatoes.
 Many potato warehouses in Aroos took were destroyed by fire during the war and have yet to be replaced. So. farmers are storing their excess crop in piles covered with hay ana straw

Vivian Della Chiesa, one of the most
charming sopranos of today, was
heard in recital last night in Con-
stitution Hall before a select and
responsive audience. The concert
was sponsored by the Goodwill Guild
OF the Goodwill Industries and the
proceeds go toward the furthering
of the organizations aim of "helping
handicapped to help themselves" It
was a pity the house was not sold
out, both because of the great work
the group does and because of the
thoroughly enjoyable singing of the
artist.
The mezzo quality of Miss Della
Chiesa'S voice lends itself to the
many naunceS at her command and
its warm tone, unforced in produc-
ton, has a natural appeal. Perhaps
her radio singing has developed the
smooth flowing style she employs
but lovely as it is, it is not suffi-
ciently robust in character for as
large an auditorium as Constitution
Hall. The many little ways in which
a routined concert artist puts over
song are not part of Miss Della
Chiesa's platform technique, al
though the charm of her simplicity
and sincerity operate in their stead.
In songs like Donaudy's 20 del
mio amato ben," Debussy's Mutt
d'Etoiles' and Schubert's Cradle
Song" the line of her singing was
purity itself and the sentiment of

The aria, Pace, pace milo Dio" from
Verdi's La ForZa del Destino" was
not so well suited to her vocal equip

register showed the clarity and

lower key, which hardly seemed
necessary considering her ease in
production even in the higher por-

Her diction was fully understand
