Meade Urges Some Kind
OF Food Price Control
BY the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE, Nov. 1.-Repre-
sentative Meade, Democrat, of Mary
land said last night that while he
was opposed to the OPA because
in my opinion it was un-American
in principle, I am convinced . .
that there is need for some kind OF
price control on food"
The Representative declared in a
radio speech that he had reached
this conclusion after attending the
recent living costs hearings in Bal
timore and after conversations with
constituents.
The hearings, by a congressional
committee investigating prices, were
particularly Illuminating Mr.
Meade said, and presented "the old
story OF passing the buck all along
the line. / -
Every one agreed that prices
were completely out Of reason. but
each one pleaded that he was not
guilty, but 1t was all the other fel-
lows fault"
He predicted that unless the
forthcoming session Of Congress en-
acts food price control Of some kind
many will starve and countless
numbers of young American chill
dren will be suffering the effects Of
malnutrition and consequent dis
ease"

NEW YORK, Nov. IA series OF
sharp explosions Jared the Rookie
feller Center area last night and
early today as an accompanying
underground fire poured clouds of
oily smoke into the streets and the

The blasts continued intermittent

the blaze, confined to the fireproof
vault of a giant transformer, burned
itself out shortly before l am.
Unrelated to the fire but adding
considerably to the excitement were
the activities of a man who, police
said, tossed two typewriters to the
street from a window on the 41st
floor of the RCA Building and then
smashed other equipment in the
Office where he was employed.
One of the typewriters narrowly
missed two pedestrians as 1t ripped

Ban on Private Drivinq

A few hours before the deadline
motorists-armed with cans, sauce
pans and even jugs-jammed filling
stations, determined to get every
drop of their ration.
Save Last Drop of Gasoline
"They tell me-" one attendant said
"They are going to take the last drop
they are entitled to and intend to
put the petrol in bottles when they
get home"
Effect of the travel ban will be to
confine the Briton more closely to
his unheated home where once he
could find some solace in an extra
serving of tea.
Now there isn't enough tea either
That ration recently was cut to hall
pound a month-inadequate for
the inhabitants of this nation OF
traditional tea drinkers.
Surprisingly. the people accepted
the cut in tea supplies with only a
mild amounting of grousing. Re-
ductions in bacon, fresh meat and
other food allowances brought nc
organized protests.

But abolition Of the basic petrol
ration-enough to drive 1S0 miles a
month-aroused a storm of opposi-

Automobile clubs circulated petit

fight into the House of Commons
this week to give the government
it's severest test since it came to
power more than two years ago.

gas ration lost by only II votes
compared with usual government
majorities of about $50.

Stocks Quiet, Uneven,
Bethlehem Advances
To New 1947 High
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Nov. Individual
stocks today stepped into November
with modest advances while many
market leaders failed to get any,
where in particular.
Slowdowns were frequent from the
opening on. Variations of fr2 ,ons
eithre way ruled near the close with
a number of pivotals unchanged.
Turnover for the two hours was in
the neighborhood of $4,000 shares,
minimum since last May.
Bidding was attributed to further
hopes for a technical rebound after
the recent reaction. There also was
short covering by professionals who
planned to extend the week end
through Tuesdays election day re-
cess.
Many Accounts Trimmed.
Accounts again were trimmed by
those who felt that the list had
sounded a beariSh note in refusing
to respond to good corporate news
such as dividends and earnings.
Others stood aloof on the idea that
the tax situation was cloudy. A
boost in brokerage commissions,
effective Monday, elected scant
cheering. The elimination of credit
controls, beginning at midnight, was
viewed with restricted optimism.
Bethlehem Steel still was the star
performer, hitting a 1947 top at 100
in reflection of the splitup proposal.
Chrysler added a modest plus mark
in the wake of the lifted disburse-
ment. Eastern Air Lines, on the
other hand, dipped to its lowest level
of the year following an omitted
dividend and a statement showing a
net loss for the September quarter.
U. 5. Steel Also Higher.

Momu Admits Talking
OF Resistance Move

BUCHAREST, Romania, Nov.
P.-The military tribunal trying
DR.. Juliu Manu- and 18 others on
treason charges ruled today that
further questioning of the defend
ants would be delayed until later
and that the trial would proceed
by hearing the testimony of SO prose-
cution witnesses.
The court ruled after DR.. Manu-
leader of the Romanian National
Peasant Party, and other defend
ants protested that they had not
had enough time to prepare their
defenses.
The trial entered its fourth day
today.
Interpreter Testifies.
Dr. Manu-, who denied all day
yesterday that he had informed
American Political Representative
Burton Y. Berry of his intention to
form Romanian resistance govern
ment abroad, admitted late last
night that he had in fact made such
a statement.
The president of the court ordered
Vasile Serdici, another defendant, to
confront Dr. Manu- last night and
Mr.. Serdici declared that as an in
terpreter he had relayed such a
statement from DR.. Maniu to Mr.
Berry. DR.. Manu- then conceded
that he had, indeed, made the state
ment.
But, he added, he had only con-
templated such a move and wanted
Berry's advice concerning the OFF,
cial United States attitude toward
the project.
In his previous testimony, DR..
Manu- denied any such conversa-
ton with Berry and also denied that
he had organized a national resist
ance movement, as he is charged
with doing.
Mr.. Serdici, press chief Of the Ma
tional Peasant Party, testified earlier
in the day that DR.. Manu- had asked
the British last March to apply pres
sure to oust the backed
government of Premier Petru Groza.

tiop is life imprisonment.
