Western Powers Set Up Control Of Ruhr Industries

LONDON, CPy - The western powers set up yesterday strict International control system to bar Germany'S industrial Ruhr valley from war production.
 The Ruhr was ordered to pro- duce solely for peace.
 Their decision was announced in q formal cOmmunique as the climax of a SiX-WeeH conference here, attended by representatives of the United States, Britain, France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg.
 IL contained no admission of Russia as partner in the inter national control board to be known as the "Ruhr Authority"
 An American spokesman told a news conference at the embassy the agreement probably will go into operation in two or three months. He said a military secur- ity board provided for in the agreement also will begin func- tiOning within that time The spokesman said the Americans re- gard the pact as an executive agreement which will not need Congressional approval, as a for nal treaty would.
 The agreement offered Germany q place on the board as soon as 1t develops legal government. The Germans will three votes the same as the United States, Britain and France, and will have two more than each of the Bene- lux countries which it overran in World War II.
 It set up an international system of inspection-the framework of an industrial police-to keep the Ruhr from becoming once again a War-making industrial machine as it did under Hitler and Kaiser Wilhelm.
 It left unsettled old dynamite laden question of ultimate owner ship of the Ruhr's industries-a plain concession to France.
 The French want international ownership. Britain prefers Ger man public ownership. The United States favors private enterprise.
 The agreement was for an in- definite term, leaving open the possibility the Ruhr might for ever continue under international supervision.
 This, too, was concession to the French-often the victim of German aggression-who argued with success that Germany's in- dustrial might was developed in the coal, coke and steel produc- ton of the Ruhr's concentrated industries.
 The decisions will be put into force just as soon as the agree ment is signed by the six govern ments. The British cabinet already has given it an okay. a''.

Effects Of Cold On Body to Be Tested

SEATTLE, (P)-The effects of Arctic cold on the human body and mind will be studied for two years in Alaska, the University of Washington reported today.
 Human guinea pigs" will go to the Territory this winter to start the project. pr. Loren D. Carlson of the university'S department of physiology and biophysics said the contract for the study had been awarded by the air surgeons of flee of the air force.
 Because Alaska is primarily an air base from a military stand point, the air force is keenly inter ested in finding out the limits of body reactions under conditions of extreme cold" Dr. Carlson said.
