4 MINISTER'S (AN'TAGREE,
 BIG ISSUES
Marshall Issues Statement Regretting Nothing
 Accomplished
cBy THE ASSOCIATED PRESS,

The Big Four Foreign Ministers conference in Moscow has ended in failure. It was officially con- .cluded today. with disagreement complete on all German and Aus trian issues. The Big Four had been in session since March TO-
 The next meeting is scheduled for London next November But there is a chance the Council may meet before that in New York during a session of the. United Ma tions General Assembly,
 At the close of the Moscow conference, Secretary of State Mar shall said he particularly regrets that nothing was done on the Austrian treaty. and that there was no agreement on the American proposal for four-power treaty to keep Germany disarmed. How ever, Marshall said: We must re- gard this councils meeting as the first round"
 The implications of the Moscow deadlock are discussed in a story by Associated Press correspondent Wes Gallagher. He says few of the delegates to the conference had expected much progress on the difficult Austrian and German treaties. But, says Gallagher, they got even less than they hoped for.
 According to Gallagher, the chief difficulty lay in the difference be- tween the Russian attitude toward Germany and that of the three other Britain, France and the United States Gallagher says the Russians just stood by their conviction that Germany should be strong and centralized. That con- dition is feared most by the French. and the council is said to have had the effect of bringing France into closed alignment with Britain and America.
 On the issue of German indus try, they were far apart. Russia and Britain both wanted industrial expansion. But Russia wanted it for separations, and Britain want ed it to make Germany self-sus- taining. The United States want ed no goal set for German indus try, and insisted that German uni fication was the first need.

The W ashingto Merry Go- Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-M of the Senate Armed Services Committee now holding hearings on the Army Navy unificat ton bill, are biting their nails at their chairman, com placent Senator Chan Gurney of South Dakota.
 AS one member puts it: Chan is a lobbyist for the bill rather than Committee chairman
 Equally disturbing is the fact that several Army and Navy off cers testifying on the bill have let senators know privately they don't really believe what they told the committee.
 If we didn't say what the Top Brass wants" they explain, wed sure catch it-and maybe lose our rank"
 From now on there will be more careful ross-examination of Army Navy witnesses.

Says Alaska, as Gibraltar
 Of Air Age, Should Gel
 Statehood CAB Man Talks
By CHARLES D. WATKINS WASHINGTON. April 24.--tR-

WASHINGTON, Aprll z4.-H1- A member of the Alaskan Terri torial Senate urged a House com mittee yesterday to give Alaska statehood. telling it that Con gress is a headache to us"
 Don Carlos Brownell, mayor of Seward for several terms and a member of the Territorial Senate, said that lack of statehood led to irresponsibility on the part of Alaskans toward government.
 We feel we are tied to the apron strings of Uncle Sam, y Brownell said, and if anything goes wrong we just wait for Uncle Sam to correct it"
 Welch Pogue. former chairman of the Civil Aeronautics Board, urged the subcommittee of the House Public Lands committee to approve statehood.
 Alaska he said, lis the Gi- braltar of the air age. It seems to me at time when Russia is building up her population on her side of the Boring Sea we should build up the population of Alaska
 Robert Atwood, publisher and editor of the Anchorage Alaska Times, also favored statehood. He said that any opposition might be explained by the fact that Alaskans always express their own views and do not always agree.
 If you ask ten Alaskans the same question" the editor said, you probably will get ten different 
 Hearing Completed
 A plea by the Governor of Alaska that the territory be grant, ed immediate statehood, concluded the hearing today before the House territories subcommittee on a bill to grant Alaska statehood.
 Chairman Crawford tR-Mich) iCCCoScQ bllC llCdii Wi1iiOue ooy ing what action the committee may take.
 Indications are that the com mittee will not act on the bill un- til after it visits Alaska next sum- mer. Delegate Bartlett of Alaska told a reporter he believes this will be followed.
 The Governor testified: My con- viction is not only that statehood for Alaska is desirable and neces- sary at this time, but only through statehood will Alaska be developed as a strategic place in the defense and economy of our country. The history of Alaska is a history of neglect
 He said the Federal government has been slow in developing Alaska and declared "80 years of Territor- iality has not developed Alaska
 He added that Congressional with which Territorial officials have to deal to get the Federal Government to act for the Territory had changed so fast members could not familiarize themselves with conditions there.

will be any need for continuing the

We must also continue some con-
trolls on domestic use and distribu-
ton of grains and grain products,
rice, sugar and edible molasses."
Sugar Control Need Stressed.
Sugar, syrup and rice are the only

The imported industrial materials
for which some form of ALLEGATION
will continue to be necessary, the
President said, are cinchona bark
and cinchona alkaloids, rubber
manila (abaca) and aeave fiber and
cordage, tin and antimony.
Some critical materials and
equipment freed from distribution

a very few cases this will mean that

used. Priorities assistance should
therefore be given, where necessary

of State and Commerce, to meet
international understandings and
responsibilities"
Emergency Possibility Cited.
In asking for continuance of prior
ity and ALLEGATION regulations that
could be invoked when the President
declares a national emergency, Mr.
Truman said that although I dc
not anticipate that such an emerg-
ency will occur, it is imperative that
the Government should haYe the

reconversion period, to deal with
major unforeseen contingencies OF

sections of the act but two and part
Of third would be left after March
81, under the Presidents recon-

have been incorporated into per-

Sections no longer needed, the
President said, cover acquisition and
