Food Control List Ready
 Fixed Price Items
 To Be Given at 4

Washington, Aug. 31-CUP)-Sec- retary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson promised to tell house. wives today what foods will be kept on or taken of the price control list in September.
 He was scheduled to issue at 4:30 P. M. (EDT) the first official list of scarce agriculture commodities re- quired under the new price control law. Only items on that list may be kept under price control. Price ceilings will be automatically re- moved from any items now under control which are not included on the Agriculture Department list.
 Many important foods such as meat, sugar and fats and oils were certain to be on the control list since both agriculture and OPA of- flcials agree they are not sufficiently plentiful Meat has been free of control since June 30 but retail ceil- ings are scheduled to be restored Sept. g.
 OPA will not announce the new retail meat ceilings until next week but it is already clear they will be higher than on June 30. The new schedule of ceilings for live and dressed beef, pork and lamb issued by OPA last night means the retail prices will be about six cents a pound higher than June 30 ceilings in the case of beef cuts, three cents more on pork and eight or nine cents on lamb.

Monogon Urges
 Assembly EquoIize Allotment System

Mayor John s. Monagan today called or the State Legislative Council to prepare legislation to remedy present inequalities in the allotment of State funds to cities and towns for roads within their own limits.
 Waterburians, he said, pay more than s760,000 year in various mo- tor vehicle fees and taxes, yet this city receives from the state in re- turn only s25000 under the town aid" plan.
 The Mayor directed his plea to Senator Nicholas Spellman, Nor Wich, chairman of the Legislative Council, and asked that the Coun- cll make recommendations for ap- proprlate action by the 1947 Gen. eral Assembly,
 Pointing to another phase of the fund allocation, Mayor Monagan said the city has been notified that its l947 allotment from the State Will not be ready until Sept. 1, or afterWard, next year. This will mean an additional item in the city budget for next year, he said. since the money from the State will not be available until 50 late in the year.
 Waterbury has 10000 cars, Mayor Monagan said in his letter, and contributions in license fees exceed $50 900. Registration fees account for another S20G,000 going to the State, and gasoline taxes paid bv local motorists are estimated by the Mayor to exceed S50O,OO0. Yet, the clty's chief executive points out, Waterbury gets only s25,o00 in re- turn, and this year alone the city has already had to spend s48 900 for oiling streets.
 The Mayor cited as "an added source of irritation" the fact that some small towns receive State aid annually even though they are un- able to use the money. These towns. he said, have built up vast back logs Of funds which have remained on deposit
 Under 6 system such as now fol- lowed in Wisconsin, Waterbury would get about S200, 900 annually from the State for its streets and roads, Mayor Monagan pointed out.
 The present unfair system of dlstributionS must be .changed if the presidents, ofSour cities are to be treated fairly and if their req sonable demands are to be met" Mayor Monagan's letter went on.
 T hope that you will transmit this letter to the Legislative Coun- Gil for action at the proper time and that the Council will see fit to recommend the passage in the General Assembly of legislation which will remedy this intolerable condition"

Nazi Warns US. Against Russia in Closing Trial
RibbentroP p Says Powers Face Trouble
 21 Make Final
 Statements at End
 Of 1O-Month Case

Nuern berg, Aug. 3l-CUP)- Joachim Won Ribbentrop, who ne- gotiated the Soviet-Gernan treaty of 1889, warned the United States and Britain against Russia today n his final speech before the war crimes tribunal.
 Ribbentrop told the tribunal, which included Soviet justices and prosecutors, that the two great west ern powers are up against the same situation as that Germany faced in the final pre-War months of the 1889 Summer.
 Britain and the United States stand today before the same di- lemma as Germany at the time of my negotiations Adolf Hitler's Foreign Minister said. For the sake of my people, hope with all my heart they have more success than l."
 Trial Ends Today
 Rlbbentrop was extremely nervous as he made his quick spoken, pre- pared speech. He spoke after Her mann Goerlng and Rudolf Hess had said their last words. The trial, which has lasted nearly 10 months will end today, and the justices will prepare their verdict.
 Goering led the parade of 2l de- fendants in their final speeches. Grim and lean in baggy lawn grey suit, he said decisively, T stand oy what I have done"
 He condemned the mass murders corrr1itCed during the war and wore that the German people as sAch were innocent.
 T definitely declare my sharpess condemnation of these terrible mass murders and am at loss to under stand them Goering said But l want to tell the high court once again clearly: I never ordered the murder of any man..at any 'tine,s nor did order or Allow the other horrors when l had the power and knowledge 10 stop them"
 Speaking less than five miles from Nazldom's battered rally field, Goer- lng said: The only motive that led me was a passionate love for my people, their happiness, their free dom and their existence"
 Hess Has No Regrets
 Hess said his speech sitting in ne prisoners dock because of his health. He had not been in the courtroom for several weeks.
 T have no regrets" he said. If ] once more was at the beginning, [ would act in the same way-even f I knew that would meet death on bonfire"
 The one-time deputy Fuehrer who Earachuted into Scotland in May, l941, to ask British help in war with Russia in a rambling fashion what he called mad and glassy- wed oratory."
 No matter what humans do, I hall one day be at the judgment seat of the Almighty and l will become His responsibility, and I know He will find me innocent Hess said.
 T am happy to know that I nave done my duty to the Fuehrer, 10 my people and to National So-

Truckers Ban City Freight To New York
 Waterbury Goods
 Stopped 10 Wait
 Strike Outcome

With New York truck strike due to begin at midnight tonight, major Waterbury trucking firms have al- ready halted making pickups of cargo scheduled for delivery in New York. The ban was made effective by the trucking firms yesterday and will continue until the threatened strike is settled
 Meantime, officials of the freight office of the New Haven Railroad here said it will be several days be- fore any serious local effects de- velop from the embargo on railroad freight shipments into the New York area. The embargo was ordered by the Association of American Rail- roads to prevent congestion at rail- road stations.
 With the New York strike con- ing up, we stopped all our pickups yesterday" said Bernard M Cos telloe, manager of the Laskas Mo- tor Lines. We're letting the stuff stay where it is until the New York situation is cleared up"
 Holiday Eases Effect
 Serious effects on local industry are threatened if the strike con- tinues past the Labor Day holiday. A long strike would tie up shipment of orders destined for the New York area, with manufacturers unable to shin either truck or rail.
 Weekend shipments are normally lower than during the business week, and would have been even lower than usual this weekend be- cause of the holiday. This was the only bright spot today for truckers and for manufacturers and others with New York orders to deliver.
 The strike will commence at 12 to- night, according to John E. Strong, president of New York Local BOT of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters tA.FL0. However, as no hauling was scheduled over the La bor Day weekend, the full effect of the strike will not be felt until Tuesday. -
 Attempts by Mayor William O'Dwyer to mediate between the truck owners and the drivers in their dispute over wage increases failed yesterday when the owners rejected plan for an 1872 cent an-hour wage increase.
 Necessities Exempt
 The rail embargo was called by the Association of American Rail- roads to prevent rail shipments from piling up on sidings when the strike begins. It effects shipments to Jersey City and Hoboken, N. J., as well as New York City
 Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables and dairy products were exempted by the order, as were coal, coke, fuel oil, livestock, newsprint, carload freight for export or intercoastal shipment and freight destined for private railroad sidings.

 In McGurk Case

Plymouth, Mass, Aug 3l-(UP> As Charles R. Goodale, 25-year- old naval veteran, resumed his marine oil painting in Plymouth County jail, his mother today issued an appeal 10 the girl he claims to have been with CT. the night of the crime to come forward and clear him of the charge of staying at tractive Ruth McGurk, former USO hostess. ... :
 Tn the name of justice Mrs. Ida M. Goodale said at her Onset home, please come forward and tell the authorities my boy could not possibly have been responsible for this dreadful thing.
 Nothing you could be shielding could be so important as my boys life He is the victim of circum- stances beyond his control. My boy is innocent of all this terrible busi- hess and you can help him"
 Goodale nas admitted being in the Colonial Casino July 27, the night Miss McGurK was lured to her death. but the ex-art student has maintained he was with an- other girl, whom he could not iden- tify because she was a pickup.
 In a rapid series of developments, the slender, babyfaced Goodale was indicted here yesterday by a special-session grand jury on a charge of strangiing Miss McGurK and immediately arraigned before Chief Justice John P. Higgins of the Massachusetts Superior Court.
 Sitting in the mahogany -paneled prisoners dock of the 126-year- old court room, Goodale was handed a copy of the jury's indictment by Sheriff Charles H. Robbins. As Goodale grasped the indictment, Dist. Atty. Edmund R. Dewing rose from his counsel table and request ed that the Onset youth be ar- raigned
 Before a trial date can be set, Goodale under Massachusetts law must undergo 2 series of mental examinations by the State Health Department.

 Council Rejects
 Attack on Greece

United Nations Headquarters, Lake Success, N. Y, Aug. 31-CUP) The Soviet Ukraine rebounded from a rebuff by the United Na- tions Security Council today with charges that the western powers have violated the LIN Charter. The accusation was provoked by the Councils refusal to give Ukrain- ian Foreign Minister Dnlitri Man. uilski an immediate hearing yester- day on his complaint that the Greek government and it's ties with Britain threaten peace in the Ball. kans.
 Manuilski struck at Britain, France. the United States and the Netherlands at g special press con- ference called several hours after Soviet Delegate Andrei A. Gromyko had lost his effort to bring Greece and Britain to dock in the Security Council on the eve of the Greek plebiscite.
 He said frankly that Ukrainia had hoped to state its case against the Greek government and the presence of British troops in Greece in ad- vance Of the Sunday referendum at which Greeks will decide the fate Of their monarchy.
 The 1l-nation Council, still not decided on the question of adding the Ukrainian case to its agenda, recessed until Tuesday after the negative votes of Britain, France and the U. s. thwarted a Russian Polish move to get prompt hear ing for the Ukrainian.
 The question of inviting Manuil- ski and Greek Ambassador Vassili |Dendramis to the Council table came up when Netherlands delegate Eelco van Kleffens and British dele gate Alexander Cadogan proposed that the Ukrainian complaint against Greece be kept of the 'agenda on grounds that 1t was . series of "unsubstantiated accusa- tions' and wild statement" whose form was improper,

Star Gives Husband Back to Army Today

Hollywood, Aug. 31-(UP)-Movie star Virginia Bruce, bride of Pvt Ali Ipar, on three-day pass gave him back to the U. s. Army today and hoped he'd get another pass so they could finish their honeymoon.
 Ipar, summoned by his general to explain how he came by three day passes after only seven weeks in service, left his fearful bride of three days last night on the first plane for Seattle.
 He was due today, six days after his departure from Fort Lewis, Wash, and three days after the Army declared him technically AWOL.
 Ipar, a movie producer, said he still couldn't understand the reason for all the fuss.
