 Wolcott said administrat o n witnesses will be heard first, fol- lowed by representative of labor, industry, agriculture and consum- CTS.
 "I wouldn't say we could not get a price control bill at the spe- cial session of Congress, if that is our policy" Wolcott commented to newsmen.
 Speaker Martin R-MassD how ever, has indicated his belief that the GOP-controlled House will turn MT. Truman down.
 Elsewhere on Capitol Hill, Sen ate and House foreign relations committees continued their sep arate closed door studies of legis- lation to authorize interim foreign aid until the long range, Marshall plan can go into effect
 Taft proposed to substitute for the Truman anti-inflation plan the following:
 1. Reduce government expendi- lures.
 2. Reduce taxes.
 3. Limit exports.
 4. Substantially reduce Marshall plan appropriations for European aid.
 5. Control expansion of private credit.

MOuntbatten To Be Made Duke

LONDON, (P) - Wedding eve excitement pervaded the rain chilled air of London today as Princess Elizabeth prepared for twilight rehearsal of her marriage tomorrow to It. Philip Mountbat- ten.
 Even the wedding ring, fash toned of a nugget of Welsh gold, will be at the Westminster Abbey rehearsal in the custody of the young Marquis of Milford Haven, who will be Mountbatten' best man.
 High on the list of today's events, too, was the expected be- stowal of a high title on 26-year- old Philip, who gave up his posi- ton as a Prince of Greece and Denmark to become a British citi- zen and thus clear the path for royal romance.
 Persistent unofficial reports said he would receive a dukedom as the kings personal wedding gift, and there was speculation that the title would be either Duke of Clarence or Duke of Edinburgh positions in the peerage that have long been open.
 The announcement was expect ed in tonight's official London Ga zette.
 Picked agents of Scotland Yard meanwhile finished their net of security precautions under the personal guidance of Ronald Howe, chief of the CID, and Leon ard Burt, wartime counter spy who now heads the Yards special branch of subversive activities in- vestigators.

 From their experiments, the ordnance men will get their in: formation on earthshock, blast area and zones of damage
 Because of the size of the charge, some officers suggested the explosion tests will be made at remote ordnance and bombing ranges in the west.
 The air force said the 42,O00 pounds will be the heaviest bomb load ever lifted by a plane. Tow ard the end of the war a B-29 was converted to carry the two 22,OO0 bombs-one under each wing-for

 Airmen assume that the B-29 in the Muroc tests will leap violently when the 2l-ton bomb is released. They pointed out when a relative ly insignificant 7,000-pound salvo of bombs was dropped from the smaller wartime B-l7's the air planes shot sharply upwards.
 The Muroc experiments are ex- pected to be conducted in secrecy and no technical information will be released on the results obtain ed.
 The air field at the spraWling Muroc military installation has been used recently for record breaking speed tests of both air force and navy jet aircraft.

Congress Making Investigation Of Sale Of Timber

II VIII Il soS OAA>f the Indian villages of Rake and Kasaan for the timber, to be de- livered over a five-year period. Richard c. Green, attorney for the corporation, said later he be- lieved the title of the Indians to the timber was better than that of the government and the company will stand by its deal. Curry, counsel for Indians of southeast Alaska, negotiated the agreement after enactment of the Tongass National Forest law this summer.
 This act authorizes the forest service to sell Southeastern Alas ka timber to companies wishing to establish a neWsprint and pulp in dustry in the Territory. It provides that income from the sale be held in the treasury until the claims of the Indians are decided.
 Study of the treaty by which Russia ceded the Territory to the United States shows that the ques- ton of land rights concerned sec retary of state Seward, who nego- tiated it.
 The first sentence of article two reads:
 Tn the ceSsion of territory and dominion made by the preceding article are included the right of property in all public lots and squares, vacant land, and all pub lie buildings, Notifications, bar racks, and other edifices which are not private property"
 A closing sentence was added to article six at Stewards insistence and with the consent of the presi- dent he added $2OO,O ,OOO to the pur- chase price to get Russia to insert it. This reads:
 ''The cession of territory and dominion herein made is hereby declared to be free and unincum- bered by any reservations, privil- eges, franchises, grants, or posses sionS, by any associated compan- ies, whether corporate or incorpo- rate, Russian or any other, or by any parties, except merely private individual property holders; and cession hereby made conveys all rights, franchises, and privileges now belonging to Russia, in the said territory or dominion and ap- purtenances thereto"

second middleweight title scrap at

Graziano, barred from New York
for failing to report $100, 600 bribe
offer he said he regarded as a gag,
and taciturn Zale pummeled several
sparmates at the Ringside Gym

Then, each of the finely-drawn.
tense principals announced he would
begin tapering of leisurely for their
15-round bout which nobody expects
to 20 the route.
Tabled as the fight Of the year,
the eagerly-awaited brawl likely is
to produce q $465.000 gate, tops for
that weight bracket. from a capacity
crowd of 20,04S, some 13,400 Of whom
will be perched In top-priced $50
seats.
Ex-heavyweight Champion Jack
Dempsey visited the crowded train
ing quarters today and posed with
Zah and Graziano, who smiled at
each other with forced enthusiasm.
Generally predicted to be repeti-
ton of theiy September Suggest in
New York when groggy, battered

round, the rematch bears great i'm
portance for both fighters.
Gale, now 33, will be battling to
