The recommendation was made in a telegram ><-nt by former ludi ana Oov M Clifford Townsend, chairman l‘h-.i> E Gre -nlee of the state bemocratic imutiiittee, and Democratic national committeeman Frank M .McHale. They charged that some |>a< king houses "are purmr-ely withholding meat from th.- public in hoptv of higher priies and to foster dirtcontent." They suggested that: 1 A directive he iemed to all pai king itousas. requiring them to reduce their present inventories of me.it I i a level of that held on Oct 1, IM'>.

Any commodity not on the list is automatically freed from control*. Industry and government offlc-, lai* appeared agreed that the present shortage of meat will last for several week* more. Chairman Roy L. Thompson of the decontrol board and the American meat institute both predicted it would Ite another year before meat is in good enough supply to satisfy alt demand. Besides margarine, shortening and salad oils. OPA also announced a 2Ya cent* per pound boost ou mayonnaise and salad dressing. A large list of foods and others items came off controls as resuit of new action by OPA or by the agriculture department. These included chewing gum. prepared flour mixes, oatmeal, canned corn, canned fruits, fruit juices, fresh and frozen salmon and a number of distilled spirits. At the same time OPA increased the prices of the following crude vegetable oils by oue and threefourths cents: refined cottonseed oil. peanut oil. soyabean oil. and corn oil.

Asked where he would he to nivlit. he -napped. "that's what I would like to know, too." The trio met with correspondents shortly after being given theii freedom by Col. Burton ('. Andrus. Nuernberg prison chief Schacht, his hands locked behind his back. hi« head bowed and a rather dazed expression on ills face, walked into the .Nuernberg press room. a free man for the first time in a year and a i half He said that this one desire now was to Ite reunited with his i wife and two children. He expressed hope that he would "never see the press again." Von Papen was equally eager to leave the spotlight and Fritzsche hud a little to say Andrus said the three men would become public property the minute they step out of the court room. Andrus wa- angered by accusations that refu-ed to allow the three men to be photographed or Interviewed after they had been found Innocent He said he had no objection but that Von Papen. Fritzsche and Schacht had asked that they not be confronted by the press. Andrus said it was his duly to protect their interests. Thirty photographers, barred from the sentencing, obtained the court's permission to photograph the acquitted defendant*, but their first act as free men was to refuse the request. The three freed Nazi leaders were not allowed in the courtroom during the sentencing of the other defendants. Security officers said Schacht I and Von Papen asked specifically ) that they be allowed to "make our getaway in away so as to avoid reporters." Andrus said be would "respect the wishes of my prisoners." The crowd of photographers and correspondents broke up slowly after the announcement.

GOERING <Cumbered From Page One) his fate Few ot the Nazis displayed any emotion as they were led in through a small door at the courtroom rear, stood u moment or two at the Itar of world justice, heard their xetil >nces and then were led silently back to their cells. Goering was the first lo stand before the tribunal. He was led in at 2:33 p m. (7:53 a. m ESTL Goering heard the verdict, but he was obviously certain what his fate was to be. Hess, the No. 2 Nazi whose conduct throughout the trial has been erratic, brushed off the earphones and declined to listen to the translation. Grand Admiral Eric Raeder gave the court a stiff military salute after hearing himself condemned to spend the rest of his days in prison. The sentences were imposed swiftly, each requiring only a minute or two with the guards shuttling steadily lietween the prlaou cells, bringing the defendaatu up by alevator and into tha coufirowu for wh*t (or many was their last appearance in public.
