Mr.. Bevin recalled the scene

said:
"Mr. Molotov threatened both our
selves and France that we would
have to look out for squalls If we
went on with the European Recov-

Great Britain had been accustomed

and that they would not move us

ago, Mr.. Wickard said. But about
100000 farms still are without
electricity, he added.
About 80 per cent of the loans
have been made to rural co-opera-
tives. The official said REA has
approved loans totaling $1,191 ,000,-
900 to 1,029 borrowers.
Backlog Of Applications.
Mr.. Wickard said that despite siz-
able appropriations for loans, q
backlog of applications has con-
tinued to grow because OF lack OF
funds. And the great expansion
during the year has resulted in an
increased demand on our limited
personnel" he added.
Mr.. Wickard said as Of January l
the agency had 100 vacancies
about half of them requiring pro-
fessional experience.
The hearing was interrupted
when Senator Wherry, Republican,
of Nebraska visited the committee.
He charged that REA progress in
Nebraska is behind that in other
Plains States and demanded sta
tistical breakdowns from the agency
to show why.
The committee, members said, will
move back to consideration Of pos
tai pay raises Saturday. The pay
measure would increase wages for
postal workers by about $1,000 a
year.

from Secretary Schwellenbach con-
corning his investigation. The sec
retary's Office said he was to confer

Gen. Fleming directly represents

New Violence Reported.
Meanwhile, another reported in
stance of violence on the picket line
was announced by police. Mrs.
Mamie Reed, 81, of 1912 G street
NE, told police she was struck over
the head with an umbrella welded
by a nonstriker as she was picketing
the Munitions Building late yester-
day. She was treated at Emergency
Hospital for bruises. Police. said no
arrest was made and no warrant
sworn out.
A report that nonstriker had
been kidnapped" by several strikers
in taxicab at Fourteenth street
and Constitution avenue NV. yes
terday afternoon was discredited by
police.
Friends of Edward Gormley, A,
of the 100 block of Lanier place
NV, notified police he had been
forced into the taxicab after he
alighted from a bus from the Ar
lington Farms cafeteria. Police
said Mr.. Gormley told them he
would not press charges because he
merely had accompanied the nom
strikers to union headquarters toI
discuss the strike.
Pickets Defended.
Oliver T. Palmer, union business
agent, declared the union is doing
possible to assure peace
full picketing. j
"It's true that a few pickets have
been arrested but not one Of them
carried so much as penknife,' he
said. Some of the strike-breakers
who were arrested were found carry
ing guns and knives"

erun,snts refusal to heed the trade
union federation's demand for bet
ter food distribution and collection.
Union leaders said persons not
called out In the strike were those
employed by the American Military
Government or by military installa-
tions, public utility workers and
men and women working in clinics,
police stations, radio stations, news
papers and telephone exchanges.
Ruhr to Get Half of Fats.
Half the released fats will be sent
into the strike-ridden Ruhr indus
trial region of the British zone. The
other $500 tons will be distributed
in other areas.
The erican-British bi-partite
control board agreed also to a Ger
man proposal to cut the bread ra-
ton in Western Germany. Normal
consumers in four of the states in
the combined American British
zones will receive 5000 grams (vir-
tually 20 pounds) month instead
of 10000 grams (about % pounds)
The four other states will get be-
tween $500 and 1890 grams (about
IA to II pounds) for the next six
months.
I'm areas where the bread ration
has been established at 5000
grams" the control Office said, "the
caloric level of the ration will re-
main virtually unchanged at 1,400
calories Ia day.. The caloric level
OF the ration in states receiving the
minimum bread ration will be
slightly under 1900"
Ration Below Normal.
The, normal consumers ration
theoretically is 1850 Galleries q day.
Both Allied and German authori-
ties acknowledge it has been down
recently as low as LOO calories.
1.-THE ration could still be held
at 1850 calories II German collec-
lions had been made" board
spokesman said. THE United States
and Britain are importing quite
enough food to maintain that ra-
ton"
The German Bi-zonal Economic
Council voted to force all farmers
in the combined zones to give up
their butter rations for the next
six weeks. The butter saved will be
sent to the Ruhr.

charged "collusion" between Mr..
Petrillo and the old networks at
the expense of FIN.
Mr.. Petrillo's directives include a
ban against duplication OF music
programs over the AM and the new
static-free FIN networks.
Wants to Fight 1t Out"
His ban on making phonograph
records was a prime factor in calling
him to the Capitol for an explana-
ton. He suddenly burst out at one
point in his testimony:
Congress ought to get together
and make a law that would let us
make records for home consumption
only. and let us fight it out with
the recording companies about using
records on the radio,
"I think we'd do good Job. too.
In connection with the record
ban. Mr.. Petrillo suggested that a
change in the copyright law might
help the situation. The copyright
law has not been amended since
1909. While music was recorded
then, there were no radio stations
or luke. boxes and it was not
realized the record had public en-
tertainment potentialities, he ex-
planned.
The copyright law prevents the
purchaser of a sheet of music from
playing 1t in public without paying
a royalty fee. The record has no
such limitation. Its owner can use
it in any way he sees fit.
But even if the copyright law were
changed 10 allow collection of royal
ties on public playing of records and
transcriptions, the Taft-Hartley Act
would prevent such royalties from
going into q welfare fund for the
benefit Of other than the workers
who actually made the records-the
musicians in the name bands. II
would take a change in the act te
allow 1t to be used for the benefit
of the more than 100000 musicians
in the union.
Mr.. Petrillo had such welfare
fund, with an income estimated al
100000 a year. The Taft Hartley
Act ended that.

Clay Sees improvement
In Reich Food Supply
BY the Associated Press


Gen. Lucius D. Clay, American
military governor Of Germany, pre-
dicted today an early improvement
in the food supply situation which
has touched off protest strikes In
the British and American occupa-
ton zones.
Gen. Clay, who flew here from
Berlin for conferences, said the
food shortages are due primarily
to what he >called "bad distribu-
ton"
To meet the crisis, he said, both
the military government and the
German administration "are taking
vigorous measures" He also told
reporters it would help if the United
states would ship more food to the
occupied areas.
The Army department said Gen
Clay will appear before congress
sional committees considering
President Truman'sx budget requests
