Senate OPA
Ceiln Ban
StillDebated
Compromise ill
Promptly Rejected
WASHINGTON, July 18- (P) -
Senate conferees on OPA rejected
today a proposal bynHouse members
for a compromise that would have
removed the Senate ban on any fur-
ther price ceilings for meat, milk,
eggs and other foods.
Senator Taft (Rep., O.) and Chair-
man Spence (Dem., Ky.) of the
House Banking Committee jointly
announced the House members had
offered, and that Senate members
promptly rejected, this compromise
proposal:
1. That the Senate recede from
the provision of its bill that prohibits'
any further price controls on a long
list of major food items.
2. That the Senate also back down
on a section of its bill that gives OPA
discretionary power in the applica-
tion of a new pricing formula which
would require price increases for a
large number of manufactured ar-
ticles.
In both cases, it was disclosed, the
Senate members of the conference
committee rejected the House pro-
posal by a vote of four to three.
One conference member said the
situation appears to be "completely
stalemated," However, the House-
Senate committee appointed a sub-
committee composed of Taft and
Senators Tobby (Rep., N.H.) and
Radcliffe (Dem., Md.) to attempt the
writing of a compromise overnight
on the House proposal that the de-
controls on food be removed from
the bill. Another session of the con-
ference committee was set for to-
morrow morning.

townspeople who are outraged at
Congressional stupidity and NAM
greed are urged to join in the march

tinued. He asked that all other groups
interested in marching telephone
him at 7331, or join the parade with-

He stressed that "this may be the
last chance for American consumers
to warn Congress that they do not
want inflation, and the resulting de-
pression, or the starvation of mil-
lions of people overseas as the result
of increased grain and meat prices
and the reduced purchasing power of
the American dollar."

begin at 4:30 p.m., and the services
of a band are being sought for the
parade, he concluded.

CIO Urges Labor and Industry Conference
To Consider Immediate Wage Increases';
No Russian Loan This Year Truman Savs
Other Grants
Not Intended
By President
American Delegation
To UN Is Readied
WASHINGTON, July 18 - (A) -
President Truman today made it
clear that the matter of a $1,000,000,-
000 loan to Russia is dead for this
year.
At a presidential news conference
which covered a wide range of topics,
he was asked whether he plans to
request authorization from Congress
for other foreign loans now that the
$3,750,000,000 credit to Britain has
been approved. The chief executive
said he has no such intentions.
He also said that the proposal to
enlarge the lending authority of the
export-import bank by $1,250,000,000
will not come up until the next ses-
sion of Congress, in 1947. This in-
crease would have to be approved
before the bank could make a loan to
Russia.
Philippine Loan Favored
The President added that he favors
the proposed $100,000,000' loan to the
new Philippines republic which is
now pending in Congress as a sep-
arate bill.
Mr. Truman opened his session
with reporters by announcing the
American delegation to the next ses-
sion of the United Nations assembly
in New York-Senators Austin (Rep.,
Vt.), Connally (Dem., Tex.) and
Vandenberg (Rep., Mich.), Rep.
Bloom (Dem., N.Y.) and Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt. Alternates will be Rep.
Eaton (Rep., N.J.), Rep. Helen Doug-
las (Dem., Calif.), John Foster Dulles
and Adlai Stevenson.
Austin In Charge
Austin, who has been appointed
American delegate to the Security
Council, will be in charge of the
assembly delegation when Secretary
of State Byrnes. is not there. Mr.
Truman said he himself does not
expect to attend the meetings but
Byrnes probably will attend some.
The President had been expected
to announce the three-man economic
council established by the employ-
ment bill. The appointments have
been pending for months. Mr. Tru-
man said that while he had expected
to announce them today, they are
not quite ready.
Similarly he was not ready to an-
nounce a successor to Rexford Guy
Tugwell as Governor of Puerto Rico.
Librarian's Parley
Will Open Today
It is hoped that the conference on
photographing aids being held today
will make known to all research
workers the extent of filmed ma-
terial now availabe, according to
Prof. W. G. Rice, Director of the
General Library.
The conference will include two
lectures at Rackham Amphitheatre
to which the public is invited. C: Z.

of Photocopying" at 4:10 p.m., and
V. D. Tate will discuss "Photography
and Research-Postwar" at 8:00 p.m.

ial and equipment will be presented

Field Methods Of Experts Are
Seen By Students At Clinics
By ROBERT HARTMAN
The University's Fresh Air clinic,
held every Friday night at the Fresh
Air Camp on Patterson Lake, offers
students and teachers in the socio-
educational field a chance to observe
the methods used by social and wel-
fare workers in solving the problems
of disadvantaged children.
"The student benefits," Clark Tib-
bitts, director of the Institute of Hu-
man Adjustment, asserted, "by gain-
ing active experience in working

The prime concern of the clinic
is to review the case history of the
child, his family, home and school
environment, and his life at camp,
then suggest active ways of eliminat-
ing or combating the boy's problem.
These meetings, open to sociology
and education students, give the stu-
dent an excellent chance to see how
sociologists work when confronted
with an actual problem.
