Speedy Action On
Historic Document
BY UNITED PRESS
WASHINGTON. July 3— (UR) —
The senate foreign relations com-
mittee laid plans today to hold
public hearings on the United Na-
tions charter to an absolute min-
imum.
A five-man sub-committee ap-
pointed to draft rules for the hear-
ings hopes that personal appear-
ances can be limited to witnesses
qualified to discuss specific pro-
visions of the collective security
treaty.
All others will be invited to sub-
mit written statements to be in-
corporated into the record of
hearings scheduled to start next
Monday.
Committee Chairman Tom Con-
naliy, democrat. Texas, said he had
no desire to prevent full discussion.
But he believed that friends of the
document would serve tne cause
best by submitting written state-
ments instead of making time-con-
suming personal appearances.
Connally said only four petitions
to be heard have been received and
the sub-committee took no action
on any of them. He said two of
the requests came fftm persons
who expressed opposition to uiu-
dentitled parts of the treaty. Tne
other two were favorable.
Two Witnesses Invited
The sub-committee decided at
Its first meeting yesterday on only
two witnesses to date.
They were former Secretary oi
State Edward R. Stettlnlus, jr.,
who served as chairman of the
American delegation to the San
Francisco conference, and Leo Pas-
volsky. special state department
assistant on international organi-
zation.
Others including John Foste:
Dulles, legal adviser to the San
Francisco delegation, and other
state department technicians un-
doubtedly will be added
Meanwhile, the governors of 42
states, in conference at Mackinac

eat food made from mulberry
leaves and potato vines as allied
bombers knocked out 28 more ships
trying to rim ths tightening allied

Tokyo announced Japan's al-
ready meager basic food supply
soon would be cut 10 percent un-
