Under a Soviet-Iranian agree
ment concluded on April 5, Russia
promised to have all her troops out

dispatches from Teheran which
quoted Prince Mozaffar Firouz,
1ranian propaganda minister, as
saying his government was com
pletely satisfied" that the evacua
ton would be made final by mid

The 1ranian delegation eagerly
scanned news dispatches quoting

To Stem Tide of Initiation

PORTLAND, Oreg., May 7 (P.-
Robert r. Wason. president of the
National Association of Manufac-
turers, told Northwest industrialists
here that getting rid of OPA" is
necessary to stem the tide of infla-
ton.
He also called for Congress to
"dethrone John L. Lewis" to get
production back to normal and fill
the needs of the American people.
Lashing out at critics of the asso-
citation in a speech last night to $50
member industrialists, Mr.. Wason
declared "OPA is the parent of all
black markets"
The Nation will never get rid of
the threat of imitation until it gets
rid of OPA," the manufacturer as
serted as he charged OPA Admins
traitor Porter and Reconversion Di-
rector Snyder with using selected
prices" to make false picture of
price rises. He said the MANS
check with Federal Reserve Board
price indices for the same periods
clearly indicated prices had not
risen as much as Mr.. Snyder and
Mr.. Porter claimed and had de
clined in most cost of living items. u
Chester Bowles, former OPA
chief and now Sterilization Direc-
tor, was criticized by Mr.. Wason
for expecting production to climb
on red ink"
The NAM president attacked Sen
ator Morse, Republican of Oregon
for declaring in st. Louis speech
that NAM opposition to OPA was
inspired by greed"

not too greedy for votes he will
initiate the legislation to dethrone
