Peace Treaty For Italy OiTProgram At Bij? Three Talk i . Russia ..Has Only Minor Interest In Settlement LONDON, Sgly-10 (UP) Re liable information dcclaied today proposals for(a peace treaty with Italy will be'-x-onsidored at the forthcoming big . three meeting. The time of the conference has not been announced although Presic'ont Truman was revealed to be on his .way. The plan behind the proposals obviously would be to establish Italy soon as'ii full-fledged inde pendent nntjni at peace. .However, Hie treaty would not Imply automatic-membeiship in the United Nations, nor would it necessarily settle territorial ques tions.

The Biitish feel Russia has only a secondary interest in Italy and the French must be con sulted. . British attitude toward Italy is believed decidedly more friendly now tha nit was six months ago. The formation of a new govern ment under Kcrruccio Parri is riled to show that Italy is wiping but her sins.

Cleanse Your Skin After Sun Bath By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer Cleanse your skin when you come steaming in from fun in the sun. If you'll use soap, warm water and a complexion brush while pores are relaxed by the heat, you can dig in and give yourself a first-class clean-up. But if you wait to cleanse your skin until feverish activity abates, and pores contract and close in on soil and make-up, you may find at summer's end that pores look grainy and perish the thought a nice skin is pol kadotted with blackheads. While pores are relaxed by the heat and are clean from scrub bing is the tim to maesrage in a softening cream. If you'll allot a 10 or 15 minutes' stint to this ritual using a brisk upward motion of your fingertips you can give yourself the benefits of a first-class facial. Anderson Hopes to Help OPA Plug Up Black Market Leak WASHINGTON, July 10 (UP) The new secretary of agricul ture, Clinton P. Anderson, is teaming up with the OPA to "plug up leaks which give rise to the black market," one of his aides said today. Anderson, it was said, believes supply shortages and price in equities are the "breeders" of il legitimate trading, and intends to do something about both. In his first step toward reliev ing the meat shortage, Anderson announced yesterday the require ments small slaughterers must met to qualify for removal of quota restrictions and lo ship non-fedcrally inspected meat across state lines. Lifting of slaughter quotas for approved packers is expected lo increase the nation's meal supply. The packers, however, must give assurance the meat will move in legitimate channels and meet sanitary standards. and At Your 'Dealers LA GRAN UK KV1CN1NG OBSICKVKU Phone 600 News and Engagements Social Tuesday.
