Counsel Lauds Papen
AS Peace Advocate
BY the Associoted Press

NUREMBERG. July 23.-DefenSe
counsel for Franz Won Papen today
described Hitler's best known diplo-
mat as a man interested only in
peace, who accepted ambassad dorial
posts in Austria and Turkey only to
work for an amicable settlement of
Europe's problems.
DR. Egon Kubuschok. in conclud-
ing his final defense summary said
Hitler recalled Won Papen from Aus
tria before the 1888 anschluss be-
cause Hitler realized that Won Papen
would not follow a stern, radical po-
litical course.
Kubuschok said Won Papen hesi-
tated in taking the post of Ambas-
Sador to Austria in July. 1884, and
finally accepted only because he
alone would be in a position to ful-
fill this task within the framework
of true paciflcation.
KubuSchok quoted Won Papen as
saying he had advised against the
anschluss, but that Hitler had com
mltted the madness of issuing the
order TO march in.
The counsel said Won Papen was
unpopular with Hitler thereafter and
retired from public life for more
than year and was not called back
until situation arose where his ap-
peasement policies were of value.
Defense counsel yesterday asked
the tribunal to suspend proceedings
against Martin Bormann until the
missing former deputy TO Adolf Hit
Ter is personally heard and can

Bousch & Lomb Fails
To See Bosis for Choroe

ROCHESTER. N. Y, July % t4,.--
The Bausch & Lomb Optical Co.
defendant in civil suit charging
violation of Federal antitrust
statutes, declared today it does not
believe amy violation of the law
can properly be charged"
From pioneer days it has been
the practice of doctors in the West
ern and Southern States to dispense
glasses for their patients either di-
rectly or through their wholesale
Suppllers, most of whom are not
affiliated with any manufacturer,
Herbert Eisenhart, company presi-
dent. declared.
Where the doctors act in this
capacity the cost of eye care to their
patients is no greater than where
others perform the retail function, "
he said
The Bausch & Lomb Co, as a
manufacturer, is not engaged in
dispensing activities of any kind, .
he added, ITS opthalmic products
are distributed entirely through
wholesalers, in certain of which it
now has a stock interest"
Mr.. Eisenhart said some years
ago. the four affiliated wholesale
companies also named in the suit
adopted and published an agency
plan which detailed lationships
with doctor-customers for whom
they furnished a dispensing service.
I'VE do not believe that under this
plan any violation of law can prop
erly be charged" he asserted.

Mr.. Hotchkiss said that only
licensed doctors were involved in
the suits, which exempted optome-
trists who, he explained, need not
possess medical degrees, but merely
examine eyes and prescribe glasses
for them. They operate as retailers
while the optical firms act as whole
salers. and their only profit is in the
difference between the price for
which they sell the glasses and the
price charged them by the wholesale
company.
On the other hand, Mr.. Hotchkiss
said, the eye doctors receive one
professional fee from the patient

tional money through the alleged

In Georgia Contest

ATLANTA. July % lP,.-A charge
of party bolting and a counter
charge Of political trickery enlivened
the red-hot dispute over the 5th
District Congressional race today.
The charge of party bolting was
made by Judge Jane c. Davis, win
ner OF the unit vote in last weeks

sentative Helen Douglas Msnkin,
the popular vote winner.

Judge Davis disputed Mrs. Man.
kin's assertion that she had never
pledged herself to be bound by the
unit vote. The very fact that she
made the race, he said. WAS an sc-
ceptance of the primary rules.
Mrs. Mankin has said she will ap-

promise differences over domestic
controls for atomic energy.
They hope to bring back to Con-
gress later this week measure
somewhere between the Senate
passed Mcmahon plan and the ex-
tensively altered House version.
Despite the several score amend
ments tackled on by the House, chief
stumbling blocks to an agreement
involve the extent of military con-
troll over atomic energy develop
ment
The Senate voted to vest all con-
trolls in a five-member civilian COM
mission, with military liaison COM
mittee consulting with the commits
sion and a civilian directed division
of military application.
The House overwhelmingly or
dered that at least one of the five
commission members be member
OF the armed forces and that the
head Of the Division of Military Ap-
plication also be in uniform.
House conferees told reporters
they expect little dif1iculty getting
together with the Senate on other
changes, notably those affecting
patents and the ownership of in
ventions. and directing the FBI to
check the loyalty of all persons en-
gagged in atomic energy development

as much as 81 cents a pound.
New York butter dealers said con-
sumner resistance to present retail
levels of around IS cents a pound
was the chief cause of the lower
prices.
Mr Males said he believed large
quantities of butter were held by
producers before the end of price
control in order to realize a big
profit after July l. The butter
flowed on the market in large
amounts at high prices, with whole
Salers willing to pay high prices.
But when the butter failed to at

President Hits Proyiso
To Buy American in
Stoekpi|ing Measure

President Truman assailed ''buy
American restrictions in bill
providing for stockpiling of strate-
sic and critical materials as he
signed the measure today.
He issued a statement declaring
that only the overriding import
ance" of the Government having
authority to acquire Stockpiles
overcame his reluctance to signing
bill which reaff1rms application
to stockpile purchases of 1888 law
known as the Buy American Act"
The President said this restriction
would increase cost of proposed
stockpiles. tend to defeat conserva-
ton detectives by depicting domes-
tic reserves of strategic materials
and hinder the Governments for
eien economic policy,
The Buy American" Act the
President pointed out, requires that
only articles produced or manu-
factured from materials originating
in the United States shall be pur-
chased for public use.
He cited, however. a provision for
exceptions to this rule when buy
American purchases were incon-
sistent with the public interest or
involve unreasonable cost as indi-
eating that the stockpiling program
should not be used as means of
generally subsidizing those domestic
producers who otherwise could not
compete successfully with other do
mestic or foreign producers"
He added that in order to assure
rapid accumulation of necessary
stockpiles at minimum cost this
act should not be used as a device
to give domestic interests an ad-
vantage over foreign producers of
strategic materials greater than that
provided by the tariff laws"
Pointing out that the United
States is working for international
action to reduce trade barriers. he
declared the Government policy is
ito avoid taking measures that will
raise barriers to trade or prejudice

tions.
