Russia To Take.
Part in World
Monetary Talks
Soviets To Act Only As
Observers at Meeting
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON, March 7-Russia
belatedly decided today to take part
in the International Monetary Con-
ference.
United States officials were elated
at the decision, although the Soviet
group will sit only as observers, along
with eight other powers which have
not yet ratified the Bretton Woods
agreements creating an International
Bank and Monetary Fund.
Ignored Invitation
The Russians had ignored for
months an invitation to the confer-
ence of 35 member countries opening
tomorrow on Wilmington Island, near
Savannah, Ga.
An embassy spokesman said he did
not know whether Russia might seek
membership in the Fund and Bank,
as at least two other late comers-
Denmark and Panama-are expected
to do.
High government officials revealed
this week that only if Russia agrees
to cooperate with the United Nations
in this and other economic matters
will this country consider her request-
for a $1,000,000,000 loan.
Led by Professor
The Russian delegation will be
headed by Prof. Fedor Bystrov, eco-
nomic adviser to the Russian Pur-
chasing Commission. Space on the
special train was reserved for five per-
sons.
The United States is sending 26,
headed by Secretary of the Treasury
Vinson, who also is the United States'
governor on the International Mone-
tary Fund and the International
Bank for reconstruction and develop-
ment.
With Russia on the sidelines as an
observer, the "Big Five" of the con-
ference-based on their contributions
to the Fund and International Bank
-are the United States, Britain,
China, France and India.

,ation's Phone
Strike Caneelled
Before Deadline
WASHINGTON, March 7-01 - The
long-threatened nationwide telephone j
strike definitely was called oif today.
Operators already were leaving
(heir switchboards and picket lines
were forming at scattered points
when the union ordered the walkout
canceled 25 minutes before the 6 a. m.,
deadline. An agreement on a newI
wage formula granting $5 to $8
weekly increases to some 250,000
phone workers had been reached
shortly before under all-night pres-
sure by the United States Concilia-
tion Service.
Union Acts
The executive board of the National
Federation of Telephone Workers, in-
dependent, ordered the strike canceled
five minutes after a "pattern" con-j
tract had been signed with the Amer-
ican Telephone and Telegraph C:m-
pany by its long lines affiliate.
The walkout had been called by
the long distance lines unit and 161
other affiliated unions. Thirty-four
NFTW units had been instructed to
observe picket lines.
Delayed receipt of the union's
notice, or premature walkouts, caused
service interruptions in Washington,
Philadelphia, Oklahoma City and
parts of Maryland, Texas and Mich-
igan. Picket lines were set up in sev-
eral cities.
Raise Granted
Edgar L. Warren, chief of hes
United States Conciliation Se.vhe,
called the new wage rates a national
pattern in his announcement of t'em
settlement. The increases will date
back to Feb. 1, 1946, and the rate

is gener'ally thought to be the best
band of the year, J-Hop Committees
have presented Tommy Dorsey (with
Sinatra), Benny Goodman, Kay Kays-
er, Count 1asie, Fred Waring, Gene
Krupa, Jimmy Dorsey and Paul
Whiteman. But at the beginning, the
same band played for many years,
mainly because the leader wrote spe-
cial songs for the Hop-like' "I'd
Rather Just Waltz With You, You,
You." He would also provide favors,
rileasing a swarm of toy airships
while playing his "Yankee Toys," for
instance.
Passing out appropriate favors
during a number has, as a matter of
fact, been a common procedure. One
year dancers were given little drums
so that th y could join in during a
drum novelty. Just as often, how-
ever, such items as ostrich plume
fans, leather billfolds and card cases
have been distributed with the
tickets.
Always Crowded
Even though the Hop moved from
Hank's Emporium to Waterman Gym,
flowed over into Barbour Gymnasium
and finally ended up in the Sports
Building, there have almost always
been too few tickets.
In 1917, the Committee, moved by
the protestations of the crowds which
had waited in vain for tickets from
4:30 a. m. on for several days, offered
to give a miniature J-Hop in the
Union on the same night, similar to
the main Hop in every detail. The
>tid ents refused, apparently wanting
all or nothing.
For a nominal fee, spectators were
admitted to the galleries for many
years, until in 1913 the committee
banned them. Thereupon "fiflty
toqued (better known as drunk) indi-
viduals" stormed the dance with

MISCELLANEOUS
Policy Committee.
The committee, headed by Rep.
Colmr (Dem., Miss.), cautioned that
effective control of inflationary forces
will be "impossible without the aid
of strong fiscal and monetary counter
measures."
The group filed its ninth report
with Congress as Secretary of Agri-
culture Clinton P. Anderson told the
House Banking Committee the world
food shortage makes it imperative to
continue price controls and subsidy
payments to hold down food costs in
this country. The Banking Coin-'
i nittee is considering legislation to
extend the price control law another
year beyond June 30.
James F. Brownlee, deputy to eco-
nomic stabilizer Chester Bowles, told
the committee that a deputy soon will
be appointed in OPA with the one re-
sponsibility of taking off price ceil-
ings as"supply comes into balance
with demand.
After prolonged study, the Postwar
Committee said, it reached the con-
clusion that summary removal of
wartime controls "would most likely
result in ruinous inflation and
would react unfavorably not only to
the wage earners and consumers, but
to business itself."
Reception to Honor
Foreign Students
Newly arrived foreign students on
campus will be welcomed by Dr. Esson
M. Gale, director of the International
Center and counselor to foreign stu-

the Center.
Depicting life on the University
campus, the film, "Michigan on the
March," will be shown. Dorothy A.
Wantz, chairman of the League so-
cial committee, will then explain
campus activities to the group.
