RED DIPLOMAT SEES NO NEED
 FOR U. S. WAR
Clash of Interests Not h. evitabIe, Newest Am- bassdd0r Contends

WASHINGTON, July 3.-Nikolai Novikoy, new Russian Ambassador to this country, promised today that the Soviet Union will never start a war against the United States or anyone else"
 And by the same token, he said he knew that the people of this country do not want to fight any one.
 But while he insisted that all differences between the two major powers can be 'ironed out" he cautioned that solutions for many world problems will require time and patience.
 The diplomats views were made known in his first interview with an American reporter since he pre- sented his Ambassadorial letters to President Truman June 3.
 There is no basis whatever for war between the Soviet Union and the United States declared the stocky, 43-year-old Russian.
 In emphasizing that solutions to all world problems can not be ex- pected overnight, Novikov said:
 Europe is now in it's most diff ficult period-the transition from war to peace. Problems inevitably will be difficult
 The Ambassador emphatically re- jected any idea that serious clashes of interest between Russia and the United States are inevitable" or "necessary.p The reporter had used those words in framing one of six written questions submitted in ad- vance of yesterdays interview.
 The Ambassador said good faith by both nations, built by practical actions and deeds" in carrying out mutual obligations, will prevent such clashes.
 He voiced one criticism of the United States: his contention that this country, along with Britain and France, is not carrying out the Potsdam Big Three agreement on German separations. In response to a written question as to how the United States could best help Rus sia rebuild it's areas devastated by the war, he wrote:
 First of all, we wish the Allies, including the United States would carry out the agreements on re- parations from Germany, especially in respect to deliveries from the western areas of Germany to the U.SS.R.
 Tt would facilitate our recon struction of the devastated terri tories of the U.S.S.R."

WHOLESALE PRICES ARE
 STEADY|NG
Retail Prices on Meat, Buf- fer Take Upward Shoot
 Over 0PA Ceilings
(BY THE ASSOCIATED pRrss)

Rising livestock prices and the loss of government subsidies brought higher prices to the meat, milk and butter buying public today as the nations wholesale markets stead.ed under a growing conviction that OPA will be restored with a roll back to June 30 ceilings
 Two measures to revive price controls temporarily reached the Senate Banking committee in Washington after U. S. Sen. w. Lee O'Daniel CD-Tex) abandoned his stalling tactics. The House already has approved a 20-day extension of the OPA.
 The first shipments of butter to reach New York City and Boston markets since OPAs end were re- leased today to retail 13 to 15 cents above the OPA ceiling. The government subsidy on butter was IS cents a pound.
 Meat prices were up in many areas as UluCIl Us ~ CCllIo q POuiAo' Milk was boosted three cents a quart in New Hampshire and d milk shortage was threatended in the metropolitan New York area unless the price is raised there.
 In Wall Street, uncertainty over the possible resurrection of the OPA-coupled with the advent ot long July 4 weekend holiday again inspired speculative and in- vestment caution and the stock market was quiet and irregular.
 Abnormally large shipments ot cattle and hogs again were attract ed to livestock markets, but prices seemed to have found their own ceiling, at least temporarily.
 The $22 high for cattle tt St. Louis was a new top for that mar ket although it was 50 cents un- der the $22.50 maximum paid yes terday at Chicago.
 Hogs were moving at slightly higher prices though they still were going at the $1850 top reached at Chicago on Monday

PEACE MEET, 21 NATIONS,
 IS FORECAST
Foreign Ministers Report ed Near Agreement on
 Italian Treaty

PARIS, July 3-The U disability that a 21-nation peace conference might be convened here in a matter of weeks was forecast by compet- ent observers today amid indica- tions that the Foreign Ministers Council was near agreement on all important phases of the Italian peace treaty.
 Chief point still to be resolved by the four Foreign Ministers was the question of how the city of Trieste should be administered un- der French proposal for inter- naturalization of the disputed port "a proposal on which the council agreed in principle yesterday
 There was widespread belief, however, that this issue would not prove too difficult and that U. s. Secretary of State James F. Byrnes might realize his desire that general peace conference be con- voked before the end of the month.
 Soviet Foreign Minister Vyache- slav Molotov himself was quoted by the British spokesman as saying after yesterdays council meeting that the four powers had come so close to settling the 1reiste prob lem that a few more talks would produce a concrete proposal which would be taken before peace con- ference.
 The meetil yesterday ended with the United States and Great Brit ain holding out for United Ma tions su,ervision of an interna- tionalized Trieste while Russia and France favored placing the admin istration under the Big Four.

 Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

man did not eXaggeraUe WneH ile told his radio listeners that he had given the prlce-control veto most serious consideration. According to his close advisers, he worried more and longer over this than over any other step he has ever taken.
 The Presidents decision to veto was virtually made at a Thursday night conference in the White House. attended by his cabinet and economic advisers. Part of them were opposed to the veto. Secre- tary of the Treasury John Snyder, Civilian Production Administrator John Small, end Secretary of the Interior Cap" Krug felt that President Truman should accept the compromise price-control bill despite it's unavoidable features, and try to make it work.
 Attorney General Tom Clark at first agreed with them. He viewed the veto message from political angle and told the President he hated to see him break with his good friends on Capitol Hill, parti- cularly Speaker Sam Rayburn and Senate majority leader Barkley. Later. when the decision was made in favor of the veto, however, the Attorney General went to bat vig- orously and helped White House advisers write the message.
 Advisers who carried the ball in the inner White House debate Thursday night were OPA Admin istrator Paul Porter, who practi- cally camped at the White House during the week; Chester BowleS, who is retiring as Economic Sta bilizer; John Steelman, the new War Reconverter, who has become one of the closest advisers to the President, and Secretary of Con- merce Henry Wallace.
 Backing them up were the De- partment of Agriculture-though 1t was not v+gorous-and Housing Ad- ministrator Wilson Wyatt, who though not present at the meet ing, sent his representative, and who was vigorous.
 BREAK WITH LEADERS
 Later, when President Truman sat down with his four Congress sional leaders on Friday, he almost changed his mind. He told friends afterward that he knew how hard and Loyalty they had worked to pass a price-control bill, and he simply hated to go against their advice. However, his main argu- ment to them was that the half breed price-control bill would not work. The Taft amendment, he especially argued, was absolutely impossible, and he cited account ancy experts of various big man. ufacturing firms, all of them against OPA, who branded the Taft coSt-pluS formula as likely to bring chaos to industry.
 T just have to put what con- slider the country's welfare first, the President told his Congressional leaders. Let's not fool the country and give them something that won't work"
 When they told him that they would not be able to persuade their reluctant colleagues to pass any sort of price-control bill, the Presi- dent replied:
 If it's this or nothing, then we'll just have to take nothing"
 Among other things, the Presi- dent figured that during the chaotic period sure to follow if the polyglot price-control bill were passed, Congress would claim it was his fault for not making the bill work, when. in actual fact, the bill was unavoidable. He felt also that
