UNO Holds Stormy Session Over Spain GOVERNMENT INCREASES COFFEE PRICES FOUR CENTS PER POUND WASHINGTON, June 27.—(AP)—The government today added an increase of 3 to 4 cents a pound for coffee to a steadily growing list of price boosts for dinner table items. Stabilization Director Chester Bowles approved the higher prices, and OPA said they will go into effect within a week—as soon as the exact amount of the retail increase is calculated. For housewives, the coffee price boost comes close on the heels of increases on such imortant mar ket basket items as milk, bread, butter, cheese and breakfast cer eals. And meat prices went up not long ago. : : Bowles said the state depart ment had “long urged that returns to the coffee-producing coiintries be increased due to higher pro duction costs. He said he had agreed to .the increases “with the greatest reluctance.” Bowles also announced that the present subsidy of three cents a pound paid to domestic import ers will be continued, provided the OPA extension bill now pend ing in, congress maintains autho rity to make such payments. If it becomes necessary to eli minate the coffee subsidy, re tail prices will go up another four or five cents, officials esti mated. - Bowles reported that in return for the present price boost, Brazil —the principal source of this country’s coffee ssupply —has given assurances ‘“‘to maintain a satisfactory volume of coffee ex ports” to the United States. The increase in importers’ ceil ings is effective on all green cof fee loaded aboard ship beginning tomorrow, provided it is imported solely for domestic consumption. New UNRRA Policy Gaining Approval Of House Members WASHINGTON, June 27 — (AP) — A “no news-no cash” policy that wiould hit Russia ~m%ged lpowerful House ,sup no oday as an amendment to “he prdposed $466,000,000 UNRRA appropriation. Ostensibly directed at any na ticn imposing censorship on news dealine with the relief agency’s activitiea. the amendmpnt is aimed primarily at tae existing gituation in the Soviet Union, according to its supporters. Sentiment behind the proposal gained strength after President Truman reported to Congress Tuesday that Moscow had re fused to permit uncensored re ports from American correspon dents on UNRRA operations in the Soviet republies of Ukraine and Byelorussra (White Russia). REDUCE POSTAGE WASHINGTON, June 7—(AP) —Postmaster General Robert E. Hannegan asked Congress today ‘to approve a bill cutting the post age on domestic air mail from eight cents to five cents an ounce. ~ He wrote the Senate Post Of fice Committee that the reduction constituted an “esgential first step” for increasing use of air mail. Byrnes Runs Inferference: Russia’s Two-Way Trieste Treaty Rejected ~ PARIS, June 27—(AP)—The Western Allies rejected last night two Russian counter proposals for the disposition of disputed Trieste, leaving _ the Foreign _Ministers Council still ‘deadlocked today on the most difficult phase of the Italian Peace Treaty. ~ The Russian suggestions, offer ed by Soviet Foreign ‘Minister V. M. Molotov as a compromise fol lowing his rejection of a French plan to internationalize the Adria tic Port, proposed (1) that Trieste be made an autonomous district under Yugoslav Sovereignty, or (2) that the city be placed under the joint Sovereignty of Italy and Yugaslavia. ’ Both plans were turned down by the United States, British and French Foreign Ministers on the grounds that they were unwork able, that they ignored the fact that ‘Trieste is ethnologically Italian and that the ethnic princi ple was accepted as a yardstick by the Ministers in London last September. No Agreement While the outcome apparently left the council as far from agree |ment as ever, some British circles indicated they were heartened by Molotov’'s Maneuver, which they interpreted as a sign of Russia’s willingness to bargain. These quarters predicted that two or three days more of private con versations might bring agreement. Molotov’s proposals were pre sented at a special night session which was called at the request of the Soviet Foreign Minister and which continued until past mid m‘ht' e TR i Lahor Legislators Abandon Hope Of Passing New Laws WASHINGTON, June 27 — (AP) — Key proponents of la bor-regulating leigslation aban doned hope today of passing any new measures thais year. Simultaneously, Chairman Mu-ray (D-Mont: proposed to the Senate Labor Committee that a presidential commission, rath cr than any congressional group, und#c «~the projected long range study of possible new laws. The reason, Murray told re porters, is that many members of Congress are being tagged cither “pro” or “anti” _ labor. Aiso with election campaigns aasead, he added, any legislative inquiry this summer or fall might run into political implica tions. The word that further labor | measures are out of the picture tor the rest of this session came after a House Riules Committee } decision yesterday to postpone indefinitely any actici on a bill | to boost mWimun wage levels. | 1t followed, too, efforts by a | group of lawmakeis to agree on scme “suitable” plan which vuld meet witia presidential ap proval. This attempt failed, and cne of the group, Rep. Cox (D- Ga.) said the result is Yhat the minimum wage bil};, Mr. Tru man’s suggested emaeargency s.rike control measure and the vetoed Case labor disputes bill all are now “dead.” The President’s emergency bill passed both chamberg in vary ing form. The House gave fim power. as he asked, to seize es sential strikebound plants and draft workers to rlun them. The Senate deleted the f{draft au thority. = 20 Meanwhile, one section of the vetoed Case bill still is on the President’s desk awaiting action. (Continued on Page Two). BREAD RATIONING LONDON, June 27—(AP)— Bread will be rationed through iout Great Britain beginning July 21. Food Minister John Strachey announced this in the house of ‘commons today. .’ The British did not ration bread in either of the last two wars. ' Strachey said flour also would be rationed. § The basic bread ration will be nine ounces daily for adults. Al manua] workers will receive 15 ounces and expectant mothers will get 11. First Night The session—first night meeting of the Ministers since they first assembled in April-—was held in an atmosphere of expectancy, heightened by French press re ports that Molotov was looking for KIDS TO GET FREE JEEP RIDES AT BIG JULY 4TH CELEBRATION There’s something about a Jeen that ~atches tue imagina tion of voung veonle and chil dren had rather take a ride in one than do almost anything else. Knowing this, members of four /Athens s{rvice organizations are banding togetaer to provide the rides for the kidg at the big Fourth of July celebration to be held at the Legicn Park on Lumpkin street. Joining hands for the first time in a celebration of this tvpe are members of Alien R. Fieming Post No. 20, Classic City Post No. 185, the Veterans of Foreign Wars and Mangle burg-Elrod Legion Fost on the University Campus. Details for the big celebration have not vet been completed but it ig expected to consume the afternoon anc night of Inde pvendence Day, making it unnec essarv for Athenians to have to g~ elsewhere for entertainment on July 4. Success of the pian for giv ing the kids rides in the Jeeps, towever hinges on one thing. ESTABLISHED 1832, WASHINGTON, June 27.— (AP) —Senator O’Daniel (D.-Texas) Zouﬁi:t recognition in the Senate today for a cl"rance to talk OPA to eath. If he could talk steadily until Sunday midnight, or cail up vocal reinforcements, he could succeed—in theory at least. The present OPA law expirgs June 30. i However, there is no present indication that any colleague will team up with O’Daniel in his projected talkathon. And the leader ship is determined to keep the Senate in long-hour sessions if nec essary to bring the compromise price control extension bill to a final vote. g As a matter of practical legislation, even a now-till-Sunday non stop speech would cause no more than a brief lapse in price control regulations. A majority of the Senate obviously is in a mood to ap prove the measure worked out by a joint conference committee. And the extension bill would be effective if passed a few hours or even a few days past the deadline. L O’Daniel, a former flour salesman who campaigned for office with a hill-billy band and a “Pass the Biscuits Pappy” themesong, main tained an appearance of bright optimism. “I'm going to talk as long as I have anything to say,” he told re porters after the Senate recessed last night. The Senate leadership did not take O’Daniel’s filibuster threat very seriously, although the Texan had his desk piled a foot or more high with documents, notes and other speaking material. Majority Leader Barkiey (Ky.) called on the senators to come to work early (11 a. ~ Eastern Standard Time) and be prepared to vote. He said he thought the roll could be called “within two or three hours.” Before the overnight recess, Senator Morse (R-Ore.) told the Sen ate that “as a liberal” he could not wote for the conference commit lee's extension bill. He called it “more inflationary than no OPA at ‘all" and “an exceedingly unsound, unwise piece of legislation.” i Although the measure extends price control a full year, it cuts [deeply into the agency’s powers, and transfers final authority over the price of foodstuffs to the Secretary of Agriculture. A decontrol board could override either the agriculture secretary or the price administrator for faiiing to take ceilings off specific items. baanl B SOO & sVe | . . % v Bl eA T LEE 2 : g o Q}; w\' .

M. bdhe V i =t HEDa | Stiff Debate : After the council’s longest and bitterest session adjourned at 9 p. m. (E. D. T.), Australian Foreign Minister Herbert V.. Evatt, who served as chairman of the council subcommittee which investigated Spain, summed up the situation produced out of the confusion* by saying: } 1. The Spanish issue, by un recorded agreement, remaiiis un settled before the council for re 'vival at the command of any mem ber at any time, and . . . - 2. The council remains com mitted to “moral condemnation” of the Franco regime. 1 Evatt challenged the validity of the method by which the veto was ‘exercised in unprecedented fashion by Gromyko and declared the de~ bate lasting five hours and 49 ‘minutes constituted a “scandal.” | Charter Day \ British delegate Sir Alexander Cadogan, in a United Nations “Charter Day” speech broadecast to the Empire last night, criticized the veto power and said it would force the U. N. an “all or nothing policy.” His speech was prepared ‘well in advance of last night's council session. Throughout the protracted argu ment, in which Gromyko raised the question 'of parliamentary courtesy in a clash with couneil President Francisco Castillo Na jera, of Mexico, the details of the Spanish issue were almost com pletely overshadowed. Running Arguments - The Soviet delegate cngaged in running arguments chiefly with Evatt and Castillo Najera and used the vote to kill a resolution and a seperate amendment on which he had been outvoied by the majority. It developed like this: The delegates of Australia, Bri« tain and Poland were named as a committee on Monday to com pose the differences between a Polish resolution calling for coun cil agtion on Spain by Sent. 1 and a British amendment to keep the Spanish cuestion on the -Agenda untjl the General Assembly meets Sept. 3 and to recognize the As sembly right to act on Spain.
