Reuther Asks War
On Rising Prices
BY the Asseeioisd Press

DETROIT, June 1-Walter P.
Reuther, president Of the CIO
United Auto Workers. said tonight
IF the income of the people cannot
rise without being cut down again
by rising prices, we shall be headed
for the same economic disaster that
hit us in 1921 and again much
harder in 1929"
Mr.. Reuther discussed Labor and
the OPA" in a Nationwide radio
broadcast (ABC) and asserted, 1.-The
protests of the people (to save OPA)
that thundered on Washington a
month ago must be dwarfed by a
new wave of protests that will shake
Washington. "a
The UAW leader added, Run
away prices and imitation are just
as threatening to. our freedom on
the home front as the enemy our
boys defeated on the battle front.
This made drive to wreck
price controls and put profits above
people must be stopped.
Our union takes the position that
our industry (autos) can raise wages
without raising prices :. Cars
are now being priced out of the
reach of millions of consumers who
need them. We are protesting
OPA's generosity to the auto COM
panies, but we don't blame OPA
too much. We know how big indus
tries have pressured OPA, both di-
rectly and through its political
agents in Congress. But we also
know that organized labor in this
country . must stop this scheme
to use every increase in the incomes
Of workers as an excuse for higher
prices"

Annapolis June Week
BY th. A,seeiat.d Ir.s.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, June L.
Thousands Of white-uniformed mid
shipmen crowded Annapolis tonight
as liberty was granted to all classes
in recognition OF June Week at the
Naval Academy, which is preparing
to graduate its biggest peacetime
class Wednesday.
Even the lowly plebes were per-
mitted to leave academy confines
until nearly 10 pm.
The second classmen, however
took no advantage OF this as they
held their Ring Dance" and first
classmen conducted their own hop"
simultaneously.
Earlier in the day, thousands of
spectators watched Nays baseball
team wind UP the 1916 season by
shellacking Columbia, 1870, and
afterward the Academy Band gave
well-attended concert.

Tomorrow will be a lull in the
June Week festivities, now in their
second day, as Chaplain Everett

laureate sermon to midshipmen.
There will be no dance tomorrow
night as there was tonight and yes
terday, and as there will be Monday
and Tuesday. Tommorow afternoon,
however, the Midshipmen's Glee
Club and Orchestra will give a re-
cital.:
The actual graduation exercises,
for which all of June Week Is q
buildup, will be held Wednesday
morning. and while the graduating
class Of 80 will move into world
no longer at war, its reflection will
be strong in the majority of gradu-
ates.
Many Have Had Service.
Statistics compounded by the
academy show that no less than "a
per cent of the graduating class
have had previous military service
or training before entering the in
stitution on the Severn. Many Of
these have seen service at the fight
ing fronts.
BY far the. largest number of
first classmen with previous service
Is made up Of those who came to
the academy from the Nays en-
listed ranks-276 of them.
Sixteen came from the Marine
Corps Reserve, 76 from the enlisted
ranks Of the Regular Navy, 80 from
Army branches, with others with
National Guard training and other
prior service completing the total
of AS in the graduating class
of 822.

Egyptian Aid Reported
Demanded by Britain
BY The Assoeioted Press


CAIRO, June 1.-Great Britain
has proposed that the new Anglo
Egyptian alliance contain guar
antees of joint defensive action
when there is threat of war or
international crisis which might en-
danger peace anywhere in the
Middle East, the Moslem Brother
hood newspaper said tonight.
The newspaper, in a report at
tributed to the Egyptian Senate
Foreign Affairs Committee, said
this proposal was the principal rea-
son for interruption of negotiations
to revise the 1896 Anglo-Egyptian
Treaty.
The powerful Wafdist opposition
party has opposed any military alli-
ance with Great Britain which ties
Egypt with any restrictions.

Decision on tuesday
On 0PA Extension
Urged by Wagner
by the Assoeiotsd Press

Chairman Wagner called yester-
day for final Senate Banking Com
mittee decision Tuesday on remain
ing points at issue in the price con-
troll extension bill.
At the same time, he said an at
tempt will be made to void the COM
mittee's decision-reached a week
ago-removing price controls from
meat. poultry and dairy products
July l. A two-vote switch would be
required to overturn the decision.
Since 1t was made, the committee
has lost one of its members, the
late Carter Glass of Virginia, whose
proxy Senator Wagner held.
The chairman said he was every
hopeful" that the committee can be
persuaded to back track. OPA off,
cials, with whom Senator Wagner
works closely, contend that food
prices would sky-rocket If meat and
dairy products were taken off the
ceiling chart.
Committee Recesses.
While the committee recessed
from yesterday until Tuesday, a
group of members, including rep
resentatives Of both parties, have
arranged to confer with OPA ON
cials tomorrow on the knotty ques-
ton OF price margins.
The House voted to give every
producer, professor and dealer-in-
cluding retailers-cost plus "a rea-
sonable profit" OPA officials called
the provision a death wallop.
Several alternate plans have
been discussed by the Senate COM
mittee. One would allow manufac-
turers to add to their proven 1e41
price the weighted average unit cost
increase In. their industry. Repub-
licans, who originated that pro-
posal, also are backing another
which would bid OPA to maintain
historic discounts and markups for
wholesalers and retailers.
Senate Backs Extension.
The Senate committee has ap-
proved q full years extension OF
OPA beyond June 30. The house
voted only a nine-month extension
The Senate group, however: has
voted to end subsidies May i, 1e47
and allow only Sl,100,00o, 900 for
them over the 10 months. The
Senators also voted to give the
Secretary of Agriculture the power
to decide what agricultural products
shall be kept under price control.
Meanwhile, Senator Willis, Re-
publican Of Indiana, announced in
q Senate speech that he will press
legislation to abolish the office OF
price control altogether, effective
June 80. He said the Agriculture
Department could be given control
over foodstuffs, with rents and
building material prices handled
by the National Housing Admin
istration

Sunken Mountains Offer Clue
To Lost Continent in Pacific

oceanic equipment not yet de-
veloped.
Printed ON the map, followed by
instructions for taking soundings,
are these imagination inspiring
words:
During the past century explora-
tions of the land areas of the earth
has progressed to point. where
there no longer are any larger fea-
lures left to find. Not so the floor
Of the oceans. Great depths and
majestic mountain ranges below sea
level, no doubt, remain undiscov-
cred. Scientists know comparatively
little about the sea floor SO that
even the recording of the less spec
tacular features is a matter of in
terest and Importance.
OF less significance are the VOL
canic islands which appear from
time to time in the Pacific and van
ish again. One small island of such
type was discovered of the coast
Of Japan in February, and presum-
ably is still building up.
Look for Lost Continents.
1t is rather to the vast under
water mountains just discovered to
which scientists will look for clues
as To lost continents.
The Navy, Mr.. Buell. explained,
has not gone in for similar research
as to the Atlantic Ocean floor, leav-
ing that for Great Britain.
But that ocean, soundings have
revealed, has mysteries equally COM
pelling and significant as the Pa
cific. For example, what is the
ridge which runs north and south
the length of the ocean, some 1900
feet below the surface surrounded
on either side by depths from 5000
to $4,000 feet? --.-,
And what is the submarine can
yon which runs, at least LIS miles
eastward from the mouth Of ,Chesa-
peake Bay?
Or, again in the Pacific, what
caused the greatest depth of any
ocean in the world-35, 400 feet, Oh
the Island Of Mindanao in the Phil
ippines?
Some day this busy Navy ONCE
at Suitland may print, unheralded
another pilot chart with a laconie
text which VIII explain these nays
teries.
