En route here from his Orange, Tex., home at the request of Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Dies said in New Orleans last night that he has “definite plans” to recommend for

Housewives

MELBOURNE, Australia, Nov. 28. —(@U., P)—Prof. D. B. Copland, Australia’s price-fixing commission-

er, attempted to explain to a meet-

ing of housewives yesterday why the cost of ving was going up and found himself in hot water before

the first round of questions was over. : ; The professor began by admitting whimsically that he was showing “great ‘moral courage” in appearing at all since he had just authorized an increase in the price of tea. The audience listened silently as he surveyed factors leading to the rise of 25 per cent in export and 35 per cent in import prices. Then they pounced indignantly on his ‘statement that the cost of living in the first year of the war rad risen only

cent in the World War and that prices of bread, butter, and flour had not risen. 3 Prof. Copland was forced tp admit that he had- permitted a small increase in bread prices in some Melbourne suburbs, but countered

This occurred on one of California’s sunniest days, on one of California’s busiest streets. Motorists stopped for a good look—and kept on looking. The resultant

Sabotage Plans Charged

The document also is intended to prove, Mr. Stripling said: 1. That the United States Communist Party’s supreme loyalty belongs to Soviet Russia, not this country. 2. That it plans civil war and! overthrow of democratic institutions in this country whenever the; opportunity is ripe. ! 3. That the party has a detailed) plan for the sabotage of national] defense preparations and paralysis of the national effort in event the United States is involved in war. . 4. That strikes, civil uprising and! sabotage are planned as a part of the program to bring about mili-| tary defeat of the United States. |
