Committee Vote Near.
In Senate on Measure.
For Merging Services

The Senate Armed Services Com
ittee was near g. final vote ON Pres
ident Trnman's merger plan when
it met this morning, but Chairman
Gurney said it may take one more
meeting to complete all remaining
sections.
Committee approval was fore
Swallowed, however, by statement
by Senator Robertson, Republican,
of Wyoming, admitting he had lost
his flight to prevent placing the
Army, Navy and Air Forces under a
single Secretary of National De-
Tense.
Commenting on the prediction OF
Chairman Gurney last week that
progress thus far convinces him the
committee will report the bill out,
Senator Robertson said they ap-
lparently have enough votes to rail-
road it through"
"They are going to try by brush
/ ing aside without any consideration
at all number of my amendments, .
| he said.
Senator Robertson is the author
OF a substitute for the Presidents
plan to setup the Army, Navy and
Air Forces under single cabinet
Secretary. He contends that the
plan threatens the existence of the
Marines and of Naval aviation.
| He acknowledged that provision
designed to protect the Marines
and the Naval Air Arm, tentatively
written into the bill last Friday,
'is better than nothing" but he
said, 81 don't thing it covers the
situation"
Senator Gurney contended the
amendment Settles the objections
of those two branches" to the unfit
cation legislation.
Senator Robertson predicted the
final committee vote might be close.
He said he will urge again that the
War and Navy Departments provide
some estimate of the cost of the
unification.
Senator Robertson contends that
neither the administration bill nor
his own substitute would result In
any immediate saving.

IS Shanghai Students
Seized in New Move
To Halt Food Riots
BY The Assoeiated Press

SHANGHAI, May 26. - Police
sweeping down on demonstrating
university students arrested IS to-
day in fresh efforts to stamp out
the undergraduate clamor for peace
and more food.
Those arrested were handed over
to the Shanghai Woosung garrison
and will be dealt with under martial
law, a spokesman said. Police
staged their roundup after students
warned Mayor K. C. WI that unless
he released youths previously ar
rested huge demonstration would
be held.
The Chinese press said there were
rumors of a general student labor
shopkeeper strike on June 2, in con-
nection with a threatened nation
wide anti-ciyil war demonstration
by the students.
The press also noted growing
movement among the college en-
rollees to end their present week
long strike. Many were reported
preparing to return to classes. None
of the schools has been reopened
as yet, however.
The price of rice, meanwhile, held
at 440, 1000 Chinese dollars per picul
on the open market ($3667 United
States per 1888 pounds.
Food authorities predicted II
would be stabilized shortly because
a large shipment of the cereal was
due from the interior in a few days.
The Social Affairs Bureau also an
nounced it would begin giving rice
rations to workers at 100000 Chinese
dollars per picul ($20 United States.
In Peiping, many Chinese officials
blamed strong-arm tactics by the
government for thrusting the anti
civil war issue to the forefront OF
student agitation-which began as
a demand for more food.
John Roderick, Associated Press
correspondent in Peiping, said stu
dent leaders throughout the nation
seem convinced that depression is
a direct result of warfare, and that
China can never recover economic
ally until her civil war is halted.

England Is Using Loan
|AqainstU. ). Business,
'Mahoney Declares
BY the Associated Press

| Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat, of
Wyoming contended today that
Great Britain is using our own
loans against u.s. in battle for
world trade centering around such
products as wool and cotton.
| The Wyoming Senator, who voted
for the $3,750,000,000 British loan
when it was approved by Congress
a year ago, told a reporter he re-
CARDS recent action by the British
Parliament as putting an end to
private cotton trading.
| Parliament earlier this month
passed a bill banning private in
portation of cotton and closing the
Liverpool cotton exchange The bill
provides for a government commits
sion to buy the fiber in bulk. lots, as
was done during the war England
also maintains controls over wool
| transactions.
Russians Do Same Thing.
"We are up against wall OF
state monopolies in the sale of wool
and cotton and any international
trade agreement is doomed to failure
until We succeed in getting Great
Britain and Russia to agree to a
private trading system again." Sena-
tor OMahoney declared, adding:
THE British are using our own
loans against us to finance, these
operations. The Russians are doing
the same thing in the way of oper-
ating state monopolies."
Because foreign governments, in
stead of individuals. do the buying
and selling, Senator OMahoney said
| it is important that Congress give
the domestic wool industry a. guar
antee of price support by approving
a pending bill which some hackers
predict faces a veto in the form 1t
passed the house last week.
Amendment Criticized.
OMahoney, admittedly fearing
the veto, criticized an amendment
which in effect would direct the
President to increase the tariff on
wool any time imports threaten to
undercut the support program.
IT think that amendment was put
in by people who don't want the
wool bill passed." Senator O'Maho-
ney said. II shall certainly urge the
conference to strike it out"
AS the bill passed the Senate, 1t
contained no such provision and this
difference must be compromised by
la Senate-H House conference COM
mittee.
Representative Cooley. Democrat
of North Carolina told reporters
after the House action that the
President would have mo other
choice" than to veto the measure
if the amendment were finally ap-
proved.
Clayton Sees Moral Blow.
His argument has been that such
clause would undermine efforts to
reach any general trade agreement
at the 18-nation conference in
Geneva.
Undersecretary of State Clayton
has contended the provision would
be blow to the moral leadership
of the United States in seeking tc
lower trade barriers at the confer
ence.
But Chairman Taft of the Senate
Republican Policy Committee SAID
he isn't particularly disturbed by
that argument. ...
"As I understand it, the discre-
ton is left to the President Taft
said. IF he doesn't want to in
crease the tariff on wool, he doesn't
have to. I can't see where it makes
much difference"

paign to produce more sugar.
