FOES TO ATTACK OPA VIA MONEY ■ WASHINGTON, June 25— UP) — A new attack on the Office of Price Administration—through its pocket book—was planned today by op ponents. :The House appropriations com mittee recommended $174,500,000 for the agency for the year begin ning July 1, and foes said private ly they will try to cut it deeply. Legislation to extend the OPA’s ljfe another year is awaiting final passage. 1 The sum is part of a $3,134,031, 4j>6 Deficiency Supply Bill laid be fore the House by the committee. It is $17,854,173 below budget -es timates. It covers 51,975,000,000 for Lend-Lease. The bill also contains what mav be the death certificate of the em battled Fair Employment Prac tices Committee—an allowance ol $125,000 for the agency’s liquida tion after July 1. Administration pleas for extension of FEPC s life have failed to produce any signs of speedy compliance by Congress. Testimony made public by the committee disclosed terms giver. Russia after this country halted new lend-lease to it through Eu rope earlier this year. Leo T. Crowley, lend-lease ad ministrator, said supplies still go to Russia through Siberia at the request of U. S. military leaders but otherwise shipments nave been discontinued “and all of the items in the process of manufacture tha' were not related to the Far East were either canceled or they were given the opportunity of taking them up on a payment basis . . . ’ Russia was advised we would not supply on Lend-Lease all the ma chine tools and other equipment ordered before V-E Day and that if the Soviet Union wished to ob tain tools or to complete plants it would have a chance to pay cash, subject to competing needs, Crowley explained. Aid to Russia through Siberia covers 'items that' our military feel are necessary,” Crowley said and added: “The possibility of Russia’s en try into the war against Japan acts to pin down in Northern Manchuria large numbers of Japanese troops . . .” Lend-lease to Europe was cut back drastically upon the defea' of Germany, Crowley told the com mittee, and may be cut off entire Isn't It Just Ducky? Mrs. J. Bilicki was 1400th in a line that stood in front of a Detroit, ' Mich., poultry market for 1400 ducks up for sale. Smile on her' face shows her satisfaction over prospects of meat on the table j after a five-hour wait—but the grin on the duck was soon wiped off. Cabinet Rank Suggested For U. S. Security Aide SAN FRANCISCO, June 25—(A*)— j A suggestion that the American • representative in the World Se j curity Organization should have 'presidential cabinet rank came to day .from within the U. S. delega tiomtat the United Nations Confer ence.' There has teen little speculation so far on who the delegate will i be, but all are agreed that he ! should be a man of high rank and I great prestige. One important member of the j San Francisco delegation, who withheld the use of his name, said he though the job ought to go to Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower—"be cause he's tops among our diplo mats.” Eisenhower, however, dis claims all though of being anything but a soldier. General belief is that the dele gate will be appointed in the same way as ambassadors—named by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The most important Question in connection with the U. S. repre sentative thus far is how much di rect authority he will have. A bill to create his job and set dows his authority wrill be introduc ed in Congress once the World Charter is ratified. ly from-such countries as Belgium, Holland and France by the end of the year. He explained thal Export-Import' Bank loans may take up where Lend-Lease leaves off. The FEA chief said the whole program can be closed 30 days after Japan is defeated except for a trickle which may be needed to help'American soldiers get home. Some of the delegates here said they thought the American repre sentative should be given the power to make and carry out decisions, under instructions from the Presi dent, without having to ask for Congressional approval in advance. The plan is based on the thought that quick action may often be re quired to keep peace, and that a requirement for Congressional okay might dangerously delay the world agency’s work. Another leading delegate sug gested that the bill when it is writ ten lay down different procedures for questions of varijing gravity. Some decisions could 'be taken by the delegate himself, others would need formal White House backing, and the most important would need either a majority approval from both house of Congress or from the Senate. In the latter category, according to this delegate, would come a de c’-'on to use American armed force. UNC ALUMNI TO ELECT PRESIDENT BY MAIL CHAPEL HILL, N. C., June J5. ——William T.

ACL WILL PLACE NEW UNITS SOON Thirty-nine new stainless steel passenger coaches and five diesel passenger engines for operation along 'its eastern seaboard lines are to be received by the Atlantic Coast Railroad Co., to help re lieve the increased burden put on the railroads by the current redeployment of servicemen, it was announced yesterday by of ficials of the general offices here. Being constructed by the Ed ward G. Budd Manufacturing Co., the new coaches are scheduled for delivery from November of this year through March, 1946. Con structed by the General Motors corporation, the passenger engines are expected to arrive by the time the coaches are delivered. Six diesel freight locomotives are also on order from the General Motors corporation. This addition to the Coast Line facilities, the first passenger equipment the company has re ceived since the war, will not begin to meet the needs of the line, it was Mated. The order for the new coaches was placed in Mav 1941. __ i The new coaches will be com parable to the 31 stainless steel cars now in operation by the At lantic Coast Line, but will include .improvements in air conditioning and heat control apparatus. Among the 39 coaches to be delivered are three dining cars. me cars nave oeen oraerea in the name of the Atlantic Coast Line for itseslf and connections in tiie joint through route, namely Pennsylvania Railroad and Rich mond, Fredericksburg and Po'Jm.\: Railroad. “From the beginning of our country’s participation in the war in Eunpe to date,” C. McD. Davis, president of the company, said. "There has been no more vital artery of transportation in Amer ica than the eastern seaboard, where the lines of the Pennsyl vania Railroad, Richmond, Fred ericksburg and Potomac, Atlantic Coast Line and Florida East Coast Railroad provide a through route from New York to Miami, serving a territory in which is concentra ted literally hundreds of military and naval establishments and in addition numerous war plants and industries. “The importance of that trans portation artery will not be di minished now that hostilities in Europe are at an end and attention is focused upon the Pacific, for the transfer of fighting men frcin Europe to the Pacific or to posts in this country will impose a transportation burden upon the eastern seaboard railroads possib ly more concentrated and inten sive than any burden they have heretofore borne. “The group of passenger train cars on order represents further evidence on the part of the At lantic Coast Line and its connec tions in the through route to as sure the continuance of the ef fectiveness of that route as an im portant transportation facility in the nation’s service. “The passenger cars in ques tion will for a long time to come carry primarily men and women of the armed services in uniform and civilians engaged in travel in the interest of essential war activi ties,” he stated. Russian Intervention In Poland Shocks Italians -— (Continued from Page Four) agrees with me 100 per cent, we | sabotaged the thing. j “Valentino, who has just come > from Warsaw. . .says German air- , power is formidable. It is absolute- | ly pitiless, and has bombed civil ; populations constantly, but the , German horror is surpassed a ; thousand times by the unspeakable horrors of the Bolshevik advance.” SEPT. 29—“First from the press, , and then from the ambassadors, j we receive the texts of the Moscow , agreements. They cover the out- , right partition of Poland, although j there is a suggestion of Ger- . man plans to do something later j :'n the way of saving face . .It is inadmissible that the very head of the Fascist party should support a ' solution that puts millions of Pol ish Catholics into the hands of the j Bolsheviks. “The French are strange people, 1 who would like to win the lottery 1 without buying a ticket.” ( finds hitler calm, SURE OF VICTORY At Ribbentrop’s peremptory pro posal, Ciano left for Berlin Sept. 30 and recorded his impressions in the first three diary pages in Oc tober. OCT. 1—“I found Hitler calm and unperturbed. . .At Salzburg the in ner struggle of this man, who had decided on action but was not yet certain of his means, was clear. Now he seems sure of himself . . Traces of recent fatigue showed on his face, but did not appear in his mind. Hitler spoke for almost two hours, citing figure after fig ure without referring to a single note. Toward Italy his attitude was unchanged. What is past is ' past. Now he looks to the future and is trying to have us with him. “What impressed me most is his certainty of ultimate victory. Ei ther he is deluded or he is a real genius. . .His eyes flash whenever he talks about the conflict. “Ribbentrop says nothing new and nothing that he has thought of I himself. . .He is imbued with Rus sophile ideas. He expresses him self in favor of the Communists in such an impudent and vulgar man ner as to perplex anyone who lis tens. “The German people are calm and determined. They will fight, and fight well, but they dream and hope for peace. . .The Italians ia Germany hate the Germans heart ily, but are convinced that Hitler will win the war. . .Goering has not appeared. The tragicomedy of the decoration (Goering cried when Ribbentrop was awarded the sil ver collar of the Order of Annun ziata) continues. * * » “I give II Duce my report. He does not share Hitler’s confidence in-victory. His conclusions are bas ed on information of our military experts. Then, (why hide it?) he is bitter about Hitler’s sudden rise to fame. He would be very pleased if he were stopped.” OCT. 5—“At heart II Duce pre fers that the European giants fight mightily with one another. Despite all that is said about our good will to peace, he prefers that I throw some kerosene on the fire with prudence and good measure.” (Tomorrow: Mussolini Is Skepti cal About the Bomb Attempt on Hitler in Munich.) ICKES DENOUNCES ANTI-PATRIOTS NEW YORK, June 25— OJA)—Sec retary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes tonight denounced pretended patriots who with “loyalty on their lips and matricide in their hearts'’ are trying to “edge us into wai with Russia.” Speaking at a birthday d:nner honoring Dr. Thomas Mann. 70, German novelist, Ickes said civili zation’s survival depends on last ing peace which, in turn rests on the cooperation and self-sacrifice of all peoples of the world. Yet, he said, America’s “most insidious and dangerous enemies” even now are seeking to ‘stir up suspicions and foment fear and hate of Russia . . . that great na tion without whose cooperation there can be no peace. . . . “Everyone knows of the whisper ings that are going on, whisperings designed to make us suspicious and c ■— nervous and therefore -p-j ly to take a step that ^“4 be a step—a Iona and able one over the brir • 1 ^f; “Sometimes . . _ j v..',7 ^ Jiier Goebbels is really as L!i** ne deserves to be or v;her S! has only emigrated to States.
