z D. T.. Builders Offer
Temple Heights Tract
Free as Home for FAC
Cofritz and Tompkins
Pledge $3.50, 900 in Land
If Building Is Erected
By Malcolm Lomborne, Jr.

Two prominent Washington
builders have offered a tract of
land at Temple Heights. without
cost, for construction of a head
quarters of the Food and Agricul-
ture Organization, it was learned
today.
Morris Cafritz, Washington real
estate man, disclosed that he and
Charles Tompkins had made the
offer this week. It was learned
the offer was made in a letter to
the United States delegation to
the FAC conference meeting al
the Shoreham Hotel.
The land. which Mr.. Cafritz said
was valued at "a minimum" OF
| $350, 900, is on one Of the highest
points in the city, near Connect
cut avenue and Nineteenth street
NV.
I'VE would deed the land to
FAC without charge. provided it
started construction of build
ing next year." Mr.. Cafritz de-
clared.
Site Question May Reopen.
The offer, which has not yet
been put before the FAC dele
gates, was seen in some quarters
as raising the possibility of re-
opening the site question. The
delegates voted Monday night to
settle in Rome. The vote was
80 for Rome and % for loca-
ton in this country. But since
then, delegates have been faced
with the problem of raising an
estimated $1,500,000 to make the
move. ..
Commenting on the latest offer
Mr.. Cafritz declared:
1--WE think it would be a good
thing for the city. It is an ideal
spot close to all the embassies. !"
Prepared to Erect Building.
MI. Cafritz said he and Mr..
Tompkins were prepared to erect
building at an estimated cost
of $2.750,000 and added that he
felt FAC would have mo diff
Guilty" in financing the structure,
He stressed that the offer was
not contingent on their construct
ing a building.
He said the land proposed was
large enough to build a structure
of 100000 square feet.

Presidents Order Will
Release Billion in
Arms for Europe

Defense Secretary johnson re-
turned from Paris today and made
ready to report to President Tru-
man on the North Atlantic pact
defense meeting.
Mr.. johnson told newsmen after
landing at National Airport at
1923 am. that the time of leav-
ing for Key West to see Mr..
Truman rested entirely on the
Presidents convenience.
Il sent him a message while
we were over Boston telling him
that Gen. Bradley and I we're back
in this country" he said.
Mr.. johnson is chairman of the
Pact Defense Committee and
Gen. Bradley, the chairman Of
the United States Joint Chiefs
of Staff. heads the pact's Military
Committee. Both committees con-
Guided their meetings in Paris

MI. johnson said he would con-
fer with Secretary of State Ache

taries JOB son and Acheson must
certify the existence of an inte-
grated defense plan under the
North Atlantic treaty before the
President can start $1.000.000, 900
worth of United States military
assistance going to war-impover-
ished European governments.
The Defense Secretary. refused
to discuss any details of the plans
mapped in Paris.
Il can do no talking about
the plan itself until I have re-
ported to President Truman" he
said. 1--WE had a very successful
and harmonious meeting and
Gen. Bradley and I are very hap

There was complete co-opera-

After President Truman gives
the order to release the military
aid funds it probably will be some
months before the actual receipt
of planes, tanks and other imple-
ments of war shipped abroad.
The next steps in the pact de-
tense plan will be the organization
of regional defense structures and
the detailed strategic and tactical
planning necessary to fill in the
broad outlines of general strategy
that was first drawn up at a meet
ing at the Pentagon in October
and approved in Paris.

A. & P. Head Refuses
To Testify in Probe on
Coffee, Gillette Says
President of Food Chain
Says Attion Was Based
On Dote Specified
BY the Associated Press

Senator Gillette, Democrat, oil
Iowa. said today the president OF
the Great Atlantic g. Pacific Tea
Co. had refused to testify next
Monday at a Senate inquiry into
food prices.
The Senator said it has not been
decided whether to issue a SUBJ
poena requiring the food company
executive, d. T. Bofinger, to ap-
pear Monday or give him an op-
portunity to testify voluntarily
later.
Senator Gillette is chairman OF
an Agriculture subcommittee which
has been looking into coffee prices
and spread between the prices that
the farmer gets for his product
and the amount the consumer
pays for it.
He said he was rather shocked
at the refusal of the A. & P.
president to appear next Monday
"as requested" He said the sub
committee particularly had hoped
to ask some pertinent questions"
about coffee prices.
In New York, the A&P had nc
comment, preferring only to re-
lease Mr.. Bofinger's reply to Sen
ator's request to testify.
The telegram said: "It is the
wholehearted desire of my COM
pany to fully and completely CO.
operate with your committee. re-
gretfully state that by reason Of
the shortness of time given to as.
semble the date requested. I find
that I will be unable to gather
such data by December S. I will
be glad to appear at some later
date when the data is assembled II
your committee so desires"
Senator Gillette's statement
read at the outset of a subcom-
mittee hearing on milk prices
did not state why the food exec
utive refused to testify.
Profit Data Asked.
He disclosed that the A. & P
also had been asked to furnish
data on company profits, execu-
tive salaries, advertising expendi-
lures and prices of bread and
dairy products.
In addition, he said, the group
wanted some additional informa-
ton on prices paid to the farmers
and prices charged the consumer
on such products as A6SP proc
essed."

Ecc|es-Snyder
Po|icyConf|ict
Brought in Open
Easy Money Bios
Luid to Treasury
By Reserve Official
ByJ. A. O'Leory

A sharp conflict over monetary
policy between Mariner S. Eccles,
a former chairman and now a
member of the Federal Reserve
Board, and Treasury Secretary
Snyder was brought into the open
today when Mr.. Eccles charged
that the Treasury for long time
has had an easy money bias"
Mr.. Eccles, in a letter to joint
House-Senate economic subcom-
mittee, charged in effect that the
Federal Reserve system has not
been able to perform its function
of regulating the volume of credit
because of the ~Treasury's desire
to hold down interest rates and
get the money it needs as cheaply
as possible.
Treasury policies are forcing in
f1ation at a time when "it may
be in the interest of economic
stability to take the opposite &C
tion," said Mr.. Eccles. who was
denoted from chairman of the
Reserve Board by President Tru-
man 10 months ago.
Closed Session Planned.
Secretary Snyder. who was tes-
tifying before the subcommittee
when the Eccles letter was made
public. commended there has been
CLOSE cooperation between the
Treasury and the Federal Re-
serve" in harmonizing debt man
agement with monetary policy.
At the suggestion of Senator
Flanders, Republican, of Vermont,
Senator Douglas. Democrat. of Il
linois, the subcommittee chairman
agreed to arrange a closed session
this afternoon or tomorrow in
which Treasury and Federal Re-
serve officials may discuss the
whole subject freely.
Earlier Secretary Snyder told
the subcommittee IAN intense eff
fort" should be made in the next
session of Congress to achieve a
balanced Federal budget for the
year starting next July. He said
the time to balance the budget is
now, when times are prosperous.
The Secretary refused, however,
to say whether the goal should be
reached by new taxes or less
spending.
THAT is in the hands of the
President, and. as a member of
the Cabinet, I would be guided
by his decisions" Mr.. Snyder said,
pointing out that the Presidents
budget message will be coming
along in 80 days.
Reluctant to Discuss Question.
Senator Douglas started to
question Mr.. Snyder on the con-
troversial question of whether it
would bes more effective in con-
trolling imitation to maintain low
interest rates on Government Sc
curities and thereby hold down
the cost of carrying the public
debt, or let interest rates rise
as a means of curbing private
bank credit.
Mr.. Snyder showed reluctance
to discuss the question in open
hearing, reminding Senator Doug
las that any opinion he might ex-
press as an individual would be
construed as Treasury policy.
Senator Flanders, after reading
a part of the strongly worded
Eccles letter, agreed with Mr..
Snyder that it would be unwise to
debate the question in open ses-
sion. The Vermont Senator
added. however, I'VE have a duty
to see what composition of these
differences can be made, and
suggest an executive session of the
committee with both groups"
Senator Flanders read into the
hearing this paragraph from the
Eccles letter:
