u. ), Protest 10 Reds
On Missing Equipment
Blocks Lend-Lease
By the Asseeiofsd Press

Anew American protest to Moscow
Involving 1000, 600 worth of oil ma
chinerv missing in Romania clouded
Russias hope today of getting lend
lease refinery equipment from the
United States.
Delivery of $4,000 900 worth of
post lend-lease supplies, much of it
oil equipment, has been stopped by
congress because of Moscow's delav
in settling the Soviet Unions war
time account.
Administration officials who have
urged Congress to relax this stand
lest it be interpreted abroad as
an American disregard Of contract
pledges acknowledged that Russia s
tactics in Romania might per-
manently bar the shipment despite
Moscows willingness to pay for the
goods.
Note Sent to Russians.
The State Department disclosed
Yesterday a formal note had been
handed the Soviet Foreign Office,
protesting Russia's failure to pay for
1000 tons of oil equipment removed
from Romania by Red Army troops.
In its detailed memorandum, the
United States contended that Rus
sian members of a Soviet-American
Commission set up to iron out the
question had:
!. Failed to cooperate during nine
meetings held over a period OF %
months.
2. Delayed replying to American
documents which, the State Depart.
ment said, proved the oil properties
belonged to Romano Americana, a
subsidiary of the Standard Oil Co.
OF New Jersey.
The Russian position throughout
the long argument. the State De-
partment said, was to ask proof that
the further requested proof that all
equipment owned by the company
between January, 1912, and October
1914, was not Nazi property.
u. s. Members Withdraw.
Discouraged by the Russian atti-
tude the American members Of the
commission withdrew June IL be-
cause:
1T became obvious there was no
hope of securing any cooperation
from Soviet members in carrying out
the commissions responsibilities.
The commission was organized in
1945 as the result of Potsdam Big
Three agreement. The State De-
partment announcement said the
American Embassy in Moscow has
requested statement from the Rus
sian government expressing Its
views and intentions" on the case.
The $18,000,000 worth of supplies
being held up by congressional man

intended for Russia under the war
time mutual aid arrangement.

A new organization, to be known
as the American Friends OF Haganah
will be launched ofiicially shortly
possibly within week. according to
sources close to the Zionist move
ment.
The organization. now is In forma-
ton in New York
Haganah is the main body of
the Jewish resistance movement In
Palestine.
Originally conceived as a defense
militia. Haganah now ofIicially de-
fines defense" as the defense of the
landing Of immigrants and of the
settlement on the land. regardless
Of restrictions and laws imposed by
the British 'in violation Of their
solemn obligations"
Formation Of the American Friends
Of Haganah will, in effect, bring into
the open a vast underground rail-
road system that has been operat-
ing in the United States.
1t is an open secret that much of
the money required for the acquisi-
ton and manning of ships to run
the British blockade of Palestine has
come from unidentified American
friends of Haganah.
A smaller resistance movement in
Palestine known as the Irgun, which
is devoted to acts of terrorism
against the British rather than to
large-scale attempts at running 'il-
legal" immigrants into the Jewish
homeland, already has formal and
highly vocal sponsorship among the
many American committees inter-
ested in zionism.
The American League for a Free
Palestine, whose most fiery spokes-
man is Ben Hecht. the playwright,
has held intensive Embarrassing
campaigns for the Irgun terrorist
group, to the extreme annoyance of
British ofiicials.
Mystery still surrounds the Ameri-
can connections of the Haganah.
Ofiicials of the various Jewish aid
committees here assert vaguely that
the support OF this resistance move
ment is on an individual basis. This
despite the organizational work OBJ
viously required to buy. man and
equip q blockade runner like the
Exodus 1947, a former Chesapeake
Bay excursion steamer which fig-
ured in a dramatic battle with Brit
ish destroyers of Palestine last
week.

u, ). Warned 10 Take
5teps for Preservation
OF Fertility Of Soil
By The Assoeicssd Press

Charles r. Brannan, Assistant
Secretary of Agriculture, testified
today the United States has the land
resources to produce an abundance
of food and things people want In
the quantities they desire"
But, Mr.. Brannon told a Senate
public lands subcommittee. unless
we take increasing steps to preserve
our soil and Its fertility" the picture
will change for the worst"
Mr.. Brannan told the group, which
is studying the Nations resources,
that far from seeing the limit of our
productive efficiency I'VE are just
beginning to see the possibilities.
He added that Americans would
like to buy about one-third more
food than in prewar years 1885 1899,
and that 1t Is possible to meet these
needs.
Proper Shifts Emphasized.
Mr.. Brannan said I'VE have never
used, nor are we using systems of
soil and forest management that
will sustain permanent high-level
productivity"
He told the committee:
But If we are going to save our
soil and put it on q sustained pro-
duction basis we must make the
kind Of shifts which are called for
by this long range program of abun-
dant prodrction
III we do choose to build and con-
serve our resources-and we must
in order to survive-then we have
no alternate but to accept abundance
and learn to live with It,"
Mr.. Brannan said it seems fairly
obvious" that the United States will
continue to need regular and sizable
foreign markets for cotton, wheat,
tobacco, lard, rice and certain fruits
and vegetables.
Profitable Alternatives.
But I would emphasize" he con-
tinued, that If we make the shifts
to livestock and other products
which our people want in greater
abundance, it will make us less de-
pendent on export markets than
would otherwise be the case.
Such shifts should offer profitable
alternatives to farmers who might
otherwise suffer when foreign mar
kets return to more nearly normal
levels. '. 80 "' -- -u o.''rN'~'
Likewise, such a high consump-
ton economy envisions a high level
of imports of foods not grown here
such as coffee, tea, bananas and
other tropical products" y
To sustain the high cons,lrnptiori
economy, Mr.. Brannan said, the Ma
ton needs more than 10000, 900
acres for crops, rotation pasture and
fallow land. He said this is about
100000 acres higher than the
comparable figure for 1916 or for
the 1937-194l average.
