Smith Wants ; Zones
| Under Marshall Plan
BY the Associated Press

BERLIN, Sept. "a. - Senator
Smith, Republican, of New Jersey,
said today it was "vitally necessary
that at least the three western
zones of Germany are tied into
the Marshall Plan"
Senator Smith is co-chairman of
! joint American congressional COM
mittee studying European economic
and political problems. He was
interviewed by correspondents at
Templehof Airport before depart
ing with other members of the
Smith -Mundt Committee for Prague.
He said it would be desirable to
include all Germany in the Mar
shall Plan, "but the Russians won't
have it and we can't wait around
for the chance of Germany's eco
nomic unification."
Senator Smith said he believed
there would be no need for a spe-
cial session of Congress to act on
aid requests made by the 16 West
ern European nations, which met
at Paris because emergency stop
gap financing can be arranged for
the immediate needs"
"Stop-gap financial help will
have to be arranged to relieve
Europe's fuel and food situation,
especially because of drought dam
age" Senator Smith said. But for
the overall Marshall aid program
Congress will need time for study
and full debate and overall plan
ming, because this will involve some
thing like $4,000, 900 00O."

foreign relief or for the armed
forces. in order that their specula-
tive effects may be minimized."
Shoe Manufacturer Testifies.
Ward Melville, president of the
Melville Shoe Corp, testifying at to-
days session, told the committee:
"The price line cannot possibly be
kept unless wages are stabilized.
Further wage increases will be de-
manded-and they are already be-
ing demanded and already being
granted-unless the family food bill
is reduced"
Mr.. Melville said shoe price in
creases are attributable to Increased
hide costs, which he linked to higher
food costs, saying these in turn
caused wage increases.
Neither Senator Flanders nor
Senator Baldwin, Republican, of
Connecticut, who suggested the
move, said they knew what specific
administrative steps might be
taken to curb speculative trading.
This committee is determined, {"
the chairman said, "to do all in
its power by way of recommending
legislation, or by way of publicity,
or any other way, to bring specu-
lation in food under control
He said the recommendation for
administrative action was in the
nature of an interim report" by the
subcommittee, which began hear
ings here Monday after earlier
meetings in Boston, Providence, r.
l., and Manchester, N. H.
While most of the testimony dealt
with prices in general, the subcom-
mittee centered its interest on food
prices late yesterday after hearing
William, Collins of the Central
Trades and Labor Council of
Greater New York charge that
speculation, and not wage increases
or exports, 'is primarily responsible
for the high cost of food"
Letting spectators make profit
on foodstuffs is crime against our
civilization" Representative Rich,
Republican, of Pennsylvania de-
clared. He said that if commodity
exchanges would not curb specula-
ton, "the Government ought to-"
Senator Myers, Democrat, of Penn
sylvania said that prices of foods
not exported in large quantities
have shown the same rises as those
exported heavily.
The vice chairman of the National
Retail Dry Goods Association told
the hearing yesterday that "the end
of price increases is in sight"
Robert A. Seidel, who is also vice
president of the w. T. Grant Co.,
a large chain store, said that al
ready price increases in many de-
partment store lines have been
checked.
But Committee Senator Flanders
said that while the dry goods field
may be approaching normal condi-
tions, "the great problem still is
food"

ton with a suit brought against her
husband, George w. Dye, for sepa-
rate maintenance. The mainten-
ance suit still is pending, it was said.

cision in another case.

Tapping the Mails
Scored in Britain
BY the Associo,ed Prs.s

LONDON, Sept. "a. - Protests
against what the Financial Times
termed tapping the mails" were
voiced by several London newspa-

The British treasury announced
yesterday that a proportion of let
ters to foreign countries from Brit
ain would be opened and examined
by customs and post Office officials
starting October l to prevent Brit
ons from sending pound notes and
other valuables out Of the country.
The Financial Times said this
was grim reminder of the way
controls thrive upon controls"
1--WE are doing for exchange con-
troll what police states do for q
wide range of objectives," the pub
lication said. 1T is a difference Of
degree"
The Daily Graphic said the &C
ton was IAN intolerable interfer-
ence with human rights" and "the
amount of exchange saved will be
negligible"
The new regulations, issued under
the Exchange Control Act, will not
affect internal mail in the United

Three Courses Suggested.
He suggested these three alter
native courses of action short of
sponsoring legislation.
That the Bar Association appear
before the Federal Communications
Commission to oppose renewal of a
license, creating a test case on
whether an excessive volume of
crime broadcasts violates the pub
lie interest"
That the movie and broadcasters'
codes be examined with a view to

That an independent commission
survey the subject and make rec

Yesterdays sessions were high
lighted by a debate between leading
labor and management lawyers on
the Taft-Hartley Act, after Robert
N. Denham, chief counsel of the
National Labor Relations Board,
described the act as one benefitting
labor.
He urged that unions drop their
announced ''boycotts" Of the board,
saying that only by its fullest use
could industrial peace be main
tanned.
Lee Pressman, CIO general coun-
sci, challenged the contitutionality
OF several clauses and declared the
CIO hoped to ignore the board and
"contrive" to do business directly
with employers. The laws require
ment that all union offlcials-includ-
ing AFL and CIO offlcers-file afi-
davits of noncommunism if they use
the board, he said, had nothing to do
with the decision.
There is not an officer of CIO who
could not file that affidavit" he
asserted.
MI. Denham drew a hot retort
from Mr.. Pressman when he said in
dustrial peace can only be main
tanned "if all of organized labor will
utilize the act and services Of the
board to the fullest"
Government officials" Mr.. Press
man replied, always want all the
business they can get into their
agencies-that way, they get bigger
appropriations"
NLRB shortly will soon be
swamped under a backlog of two
to three years Of election cases, Mr..
Presman predicted, and CIO prefers
to "contrive with employers a sim
pier and speedier solution of our
issues, without resort to the board"
A management attorney, Robert
D. Morgan, Chicago, snapped back:
Organized labor is in the position
Of man who stands with his hands
On his own throat yelling murder.
Labor Stand Called Suicidal.
"Organized labor has not tried
to make the law work." Mr.. Morgan
said. Instead it has embarked on
political battle to defeat all Sena-
tors and Representatives who voted
for it. If organized labor persists
IN trying to submarine the law 1t
will commit suicide"
