LoveH Says Soviet
Buying Spree Is No
indication Of Collapse

The United States should not be
lulled into false sense of security
by confirmed reports of buying
spree" by the Russian people, Un-
dersecretary of State Lovett warned
yesterday.
Mr.. Lovett said the United States
Embassy in Moscow had verified
the wave of Russian buying, but
that the situation does not indicate
breakdown in the Soviet economy
Mr.. Lovett told the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee that ut
would be a mistake to attach toe
much Importance" TO the spree
and agreed with Senator Ferguson
Republican, of Michigan that we
should not be lulled into COM
placency.
Censorship Withheld News.
The Undersecretary said it was
the understanding of Ambassador
Walter Bedell Smiths staff that
American news correspondents in
Moscow were unable. because of
censorship, to transmit news of the
buying wave outside of the Soviet
Union
First word of panic buying" was
broadcast Wednesday night by the
State Departments Voice of Amer
ica," which said rumors were prev
alent in Moscow that prices were
about to be raised and the ruble
decreased in value.
| Several Senators interpreted the
news as presaging serious economic
trouble for the Soviet Union. How
ever, diplomatic authorities attrib-
uted the reported buying panic"
to popular confusion stemming from
the governments plan to end war
time rationing.
Situation Described.
Mr.. Lovett said his information
was based on an uncensored cable
from the Moscow Embassy. He said
the cable cited many rumors preva-
lent in Moscow, but placed the most
credibility in one which concerned
"the possibility of new currency"
The cable, Mr.. Lovett said, gave
this picture of the situation:
Long lines of buyers have been
forming at dry goods, jewelry, fur
and similar shops in Moscow. Most
purchases have been in durable
goods. Travellers report that SIM
liar buying exists in other Soviet
cities.
Moscow's main department store
(Mostorg) is reported closed "for
repairs" and many of it's branches
also are closed Other shops are
reported closed "for inventory
Shops still open have had a very
active business and the shelves have
been rather bare"
Senator Ferguson asked if there
is any Russian censorship on dip
lomatic reports.
NO" Mr.. Lovett replied
Senator Ferguson then wanted to
know if the diplomatic agents are
free ito go out and collect informa-
ton such as this"
Mr.. Lovett said they we're not.
They are restricted. he said, to Ger
tain areas and regions.
Then it is not like here, where
Soviet agents if they wish may take
plane to Detroit, Chicago or any
other place, or the Ambassador may
do SOP" Sena tor Ferguson asked.
I'VE do not have the same right
in Russia?"
MY understanding is that we do
not" Mr.. Lovett replied.

U.@
Aqe-Old Problem

The United Nations tackled prob
lem last week that has defied solution
since Solomon ruled a kingdom in
what is now known as Palestine. The
age-old dispute is whether the Holy
Land of Christians, Jews and Moslems
shall be Arab, Jewish, neither or both.
Under DR.. OsWaldo> Aranha, presi-
dent of the General Assembly, the
u. N. went about setting up a fact
finding committee from among its 55-
member nations to probe the Palestine
situation.
During the last quarter of century,
there have been l8 official Palestine
inquiries.
The Arabs demand independence for
Palestine. They want il to be an Arab
state. They heatedly oppose further
Jewish immigration.
The Jews want a permanent Jewish
home in Palestine. They want to open
the country TO all Jews in Europe OF
anywhere.
The British, administering a 26-year-
old League of Nations mandate ovel
Palestine, want TO retain supervision
of strategic oil resources but WoulC
like to let in other countries on re-
sponsibllity for maintaining order.

Prices
OPA

The Office of Price Administration
last week ordered % areas and por-
tions of IL others freed from rent

showdown on divergent House Senate
bills to extend controls beyond June

During the week, OPA completed

Meanwhile President Truman's plea

Education
Booming Colleges

American colleges now have an en-
rollment of 100000 students, COM
pared with 100000 just before the
war.
A nationwide survey, still in prog
ress, indicates that college enrolment
will increase about 100000 next fall.
The total probably will exceed 3,000,-
600 in l949 and 100000 in 1850.
Colleges thought they were crowd
ed in l939-40, when the average space
per student was 200 square feet" said
DR.. Ernest V. Hollis chief OF Veterans
educational facilities for the U. S.
Office of Education Now the amount
per student averages $50 square feet
In order TO accommodate 33 per-
cent increase in enrolment by 1901.
American colleges and universities ex-
pect to spend five and half billion
dollars. This is almost double the
value of the nations present college
plant, estimated at three billion doll
lars.
Colleges want to expand their
buildings by 300,000,000 square feet"
DR.. Hollis said THAT amount of space
is equivalent to $50 structures the size
of the Empire State building in New
York"
The Office of Education has allocated
all of the $75,0OO,000 appropriated to
it by Congress for transfer of Army
and Navy surplus buildings to univer-
stiles for veterans education.
Colleges asked for S2,798,OOO square
feet of floor space under the Emer-
gency Educational Program for Vet
Grams. The Bureau of Community Fa-
cilities cut this to 2O,066,582 square
feet. Thus far, slightly over half thai

cost of $68,756,953.

Soft Coal DeodIine

The first move towards shifting the
soft coal mines from government con-
troll back to their private owners came
last week with the opening in Wash
inetOn OF talks between bituminOus
operators and John l.. Lewis United
Mine Workers.
The more than $500 mines were
seized by President Truman during
last springs 59-day strike. A working
agreement was negotiated with the
miners by Secretary of the Interior
j A. Krug which Will expire when
the governments legal right TO keep
possession Of the pits runs out June 80.
Lewis and the operators have only
two months in which to agree on a
private contract and prospects are far
from bright in the opinion alike of
government, industry and union rep
reSentatiVeS.
Without contract, the 100000 min
ers traditionally don't work.
The principal new demands which
Lewis is expected to make at some
point during the conferences include:
l. The same (Sl1.85) pay for an
eight hour day as for the present
nine hours underground, the equiv
alent of 23-cent hourly boost.
2. An increase from five to ten
cents in royalties on each ton of
coal produced for the miners health
and welfare fund.
3. Adoption by the operators of the
new federal Mine Safety Code, an
offsh00t of the Krug Lewis agree
ment.
Capt. N. H. Collision, federal coal
mines administrator under Secretary
Krug, announced strict hands-of pol
icy by the government during the con-
ference.
I'VE merely invited both sides to
what is sort OF an afternoon tea,
Capt Collision said They may decide
to break up or go into what they cal
wage conference"
Meanwhile as the Senate debated
drastic labor curbS, Iowa became the
18th state to enact 4 law banning the
closed shop.
The other states where similar
measures have been approved art
Arizona, South Dakota. Nebraska
Arkansas, Florida. Texas, North Caro-
lima, Tennessee, North Dakota, New
Mexico, Georgia and Virginia.
In April, nearly 100000 Worker
in the steel, automobile and electrica
industries won wage increases approx
imating Is cents an hour.
The nationwide strike of $4,000
| telephone workers began to cracl
e with settlements first IN New Yorl
