Curbs Considered on Use.
Of Interior Auditorium

Revised regulations which would
materially restrict the use of the
Interior Department. Auditorium for
other than governmental purposes
are under consideration today, ac-
cording to Oscar L. Chapman, I'm
dersecretary of the Interior.
The information was contained in
a letter sent to Joseph H. Deckman,
executive committeeman of the Ma
tional Home and Property Owners
Foundation, who had protested use
of the auditorium by the Emergency
Committee for Rent Control. The
committee reserved the auditorium
February 13 for rally.
"The reservation in question was
made because the letter of applica-
ton for the use of the auditorium
stated that many members of the
committee were Government en-
ployes and members of veterans and
civic organizations" Mr.. Chapnlan's
letter said.
Under present regulations" it
continued, "the auditorium is used
for governmental business by organ
izations composed of Government
employees and veterans and occa-
sionally by charitable, civic and
other organizations, where the meet
ings are educational in character

Italian Republican Leader
Refuses 10 Duel Journalist
BY the Assoeiafed Press

ROME, Feb. 26.-Republican
Leader Randolfo Pacciardi politely
refused last night to meet Journal
ist Giovanni Artieri> in a duel, thus
ayerting for the second time in "a
hours a meeting on the field of
honor.
Pacciardi previously had chal-
lenged Artierlis editor, Tullio Bene-
detti. but their disagreement was
peaceably settled. Both challenges
grew out of an article written by
Artierli and published in Benedict
It's Giornale della Sera.
The article attacked a speech Pac-
ciardi made in the italian Constitu-
ent Assembly criticizing the valor
of Italy's World War II armies.
The article so incensed Pacciardi
that he challenged Benedict, a
elloW-deputy.
When this dispute was settled,
Artierli became angered because
Pacciardi had gone over his head
in protesting to Benedetti, and is
sued a challenge of his own.

Food Again

When last week We referred, editorialy to the feed muddle we were anticipating, without realizing it. some such announcement as the one issued by the Department of Agriculture the high record pou- try cold storage stock for october l. This came the day before "Poultryess Thursday Poultrymen see in these figures the prospect of glut in the market
 We pointed out in our editorial that we believed Washington to be in a complete state of confusion about food and the Department of Agricultures bu- letin partly bears us out We still feel inclined to wonder whether anyone on the committee for the Presidents emergency food program knows anything about food and on what the committee is basng It's policy
 Certainly there is an emergency. Certainly We must assume some sort of regulation We nave urged cur readers to comply with the principles of the pro gram We also have called attention to Louis Brom- fields splendid article recently published pointing out poor cooking as one of the great sources of waste
 Presumably Charles Luckmans Citizens Food Committee will act information contained Tn the Department. of Agricultres bulletin with regard to pcultry perhaps to the temporarily of abolish ing the poultryless Thursday That the same bulletin contains information showing that the stock of cold storage shell eggs the lowest in 25 years for October

story of the Army's deal leaked tq the press. Suddenly, Nelson fired Fred Eoerstadt. This electrified Washington. Old Don Nelson had taken a new lease on life.
 tWhat had happened was that the astute long-haired boys knew the President didn't like Eberstadt, knew he would be pleased if Nelson fired him. This turned the tide. The President revoked his earlier letter putting Baruch and Lew Douglas in charge of war produc- ton"
 As Baruch intimated to the Sem ate Committee, that incident IS still important Because the man who engineered the move to oust civilian control of war production is the same man who now sits in finn control Of both the Army and the Navy-perseverng Jimmy For restal.

GLAMOR TAKES BACK SEAT

The House un-American ActlVl- ties Committee saw to it that movie stars. who came to protest against the Hollywood hearing, got no bet ter treatment than the rest of the public. Such celebrities as Hum phrey Bcgart, Lauren Bacall, Dan ny Kaye and Paul Henreid were herded into long visitors line. When they reached the door, the guard snapped: Are you the show people?"
 Then he ushered them past emp ty front seats and plunked them down in the rear of the hearing room. Later a friendly guard moved glamor girls June Havoc and Jane Wyatt nearer the front. There they talked to two old ladies who said they were charwomen in the House Office Building.
 We old biddies are just as mad as we can be," one protested. Why, it was plain orneriness of them to seat you in the back of the room. tccPYRIcHT, l947. BELL SYNDICATE. INc)

MIR. PETRILLO'S CAMPAIGN

few years ago, J, Caesar Petrillo head of the American Federation of Musicians startled a good many Americans when he clubbed the photograph record making industry into paying tribute to the union in the form of stipulated portion of the price for each record sold be contributed to the unions welfare fund This tribute was paid by the manu- facturers for the privilege paying the members of Petllo's union for producing music for recordings.
 The Congress of the United States. however after several futile attempts curb such apparently legal racketeering Perlo off short by passage of the ft-Bartley Act which made such payments illegal The Act states it is illegal for any union ito cause or attempt to cause employer to pay or deliver any money or thing of value in the nature of an exacion for services which not performed or not to be performed"
 There is no doubt that this clause aimed directly at Petrillo and his methods.
 In reprisal Petrillo has ruled that his musicians will now make no recordings Apparently he expects every radio station, no matter how large or how small, to hire popular band
 The effect of Petrilos latest edict is two-fold. In the first place it will probably that a great deal more music the variety termed classical" will be heard in the home and the radio. Record manufacturers have large files of such works to draw readily available
 In the second place it will probably that a great many of the so-caled popular musicians will join the ranks of the unemployed change thei profession. It is safe to say that the invention ot the phonograph and the record industry created thou sands of jobs for modern musicians and addi- tional source of income for popular bands lucky enough to have full booking.
 There will doubt be great rejoicing on the part of those who favor the classics but much ing the bar the part of the uke box fans, who may have to be jitterbugging to the watzes of Chopin or the minuets of Mozart

police state methods is astonishing it is mis- taken This is not the first time MT. Truman has revealed this confusion. In his broadcast to the Ma ton inaugurating the food conservation program which may be quoted directly although his con- ference remarks may not-he said: The voluntary program is the best way for us to do the job. We believe that self control is the best control"
 We believe nothing of the sort of When We want to raise revenue for the operation of the Government We do it by taxation-not by soliciting voluntary contribution to the Treasury, When we wanted to raise army, more than year before We went to war because recognized the existence of an emergency. did it by conscrpton-not by urging voluntary enlistments. When wanted to distribute scarce supplies equitably and keep prices at reasonable levels during the itself did by a price control and consumer rationng law-not by exhortation
 These were police methods, if MT Truman likes. in the sense that governmental enforcement of them was authorized by the representatives of the people in Congress But they had no more to do with the methods of the police state than the enforcement Of traffic regulations or pure food and drug laws on the contrary they constituted the only genuinely democratic means of dealing with the conditions they were designed to meet They provided for equitable apportionment of the load among all the people for bidding few to profit at the expense of the many
 The voluntary program may be. Nr. Truman believes the best way for to save the wheat needed for the immediate relief of Europe; at any rate they deserve full national support Perhaps price control and consumer ratoning too cumbersome and would take too long to reesteblsh Self-control may then, be the best control in the circumstances We graVey doubt however whether the food saved through vol untary conservation by millions of Americans will reach its intended destination unless the President secures from Congress the aocation powers necessary to keep it from being fed to livestock or otherwise dssipated And we continue to believe that II price control and rationing had been maintained We should not now be in the grip of an imitation which more seriously threatens establishment of the police state
