Held at Seasonal Peak
By the Assoeiofed Press

The Agriculture Department said
today dairy product prices have
about reached their peak for this
year and should begin to decline
after production starts seasonal
increase, within a few weeks.
1t said the prospective upturn in
production will be accompanied, as
price influencing factor, by indi-
cations that consumers are Begin
ming to spend less for food as in
dustrial products become available
in larger quantities. Consumption
OF fluid milk and cream has declined
more than normal at this time of
the year.
Much of the cream has gone into
the production of creamery butter.
The department said that despite
an increase in the rate of butter
production this fall, the 1896 pro-
duction will be little more than
1,100, ,000, 900 pounds, compared with
l 1862 ,000, 900 last year and 1885,
80 average Of l l,691 100000.

because storage stocks are much
smaller.

BiddIe Defends Justice
OF Findings at Nuremberg
BY the Asseeioied Press

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 2l.-The
Nuremberg war crimes trials repre-
sent vital step in the worlds
progress toward rule of law, ac-
cording to Francis Biddle, Ameri-
can member of the international
military tribunal.
Mr.. Biddle, rejecting a thesis set
forth by Senator Taft, Republican,
of Ohio that the Nuremberg trials
were unjust since they had no legal
precedent, declared laws are not
found only in books They are
found also in customs and prac-
ticeS, and in the other expressions
of civilization"
international law in its present
inchoate state" he asserted, par
takes of the character of court
martial-what might be called the
common law Of mankind
TT is the universal doctrine that
victor can apply any law he
wishes. This court proceeded not
under court-martial rules, however,
but under practices comparable
with those of an Anglo-Saxon
court"
Mr. Biddle, in his first pronounce
ment in this country since the
trials, listed as one of the most i'm
portant developments in the trials
the 'reaffirmation of the respons..-
bility of individuals for the national
policies which end in aggressive
war"
Obviously" he told the Philadel-
phia Foreign Policy Association yes
terday, announcements such as
our judgments at Nuremberg will
not do much to stop war. Every,
step of this kind, however, tends to
establish the rule of law in inter-
national affairs"

violent"
Mr.. McChesney, president of Harry
Alexander, Inc. heads the National
Electrical Contractors Association

olution, also adopted, which sup
ported homes for veterans.
The council is composed of repre-.
Sentatives of about 100 trade asso-
Citations connected with the build
ing industry.
Research Program Backed.
