Washington. June 17..
Flatly denying charges of Sec
retary of Interior Ickes, I. W.
Wilson, production vice presi
dent testified today that the
"Aluminum company (of Amer
ica) has done everything within
its power, and more" to aid the
president's defense program.
If a shortage of aluminum ex
ists for airplanes and other vi
tal defense needs, Wilson said
that the aluminum company
could not be blamed. He said
that the company had furnished
more of the metal than its own
estimates and that Secretary
Ickes had denied its requests
for additional electric power at
Bonneville dam. . .
FRUIT AND PRODUCE
STRIKERS GET RAISE
Portland, Ore., June 17. W
Striking employes of the Pa
cific Fruit and Produce company
returned to work today under
terms of settlement which
Ransom Meinke, attorney for the
firms, said provided for a 16
per cent wage increase for the
AFL warehousemen, with hours
remaining at 45 1-3 hours a
week. The previous wage was
$30 weekly. 1
Washington, June 17. (P
Interior Secretary Ickes told a
senate committee today if history
records the present war as "lost,
it may be because of the recall
trance of the Aluminum com
pany of America."
Testifying before the special
committee investigating the de
fense program, Ickes said the
company had worked to prevent
aluminum production by other
companies.
"It is as perfect a monopoly
as ever devised by man." he de
clared during questioning by
Chairman Truman (D.-Mo.)
Too Polite
"We could get more aluminum
if we weren't too polite," Ickes
added.
Ickes said the aluminum com
pany "would prevent the dissem
ination of the facilities of alum
inum, regardless of the conse
quences to the United States, in
order to get all the aluminum
sources under its control."
Ickes told the committee that
the Bureau of Mines had de
veloped a method of making
aluminum from alunite, a ma
terial found in Utah and Wash
ington. He suggested that In
building aluminum plants the
government should refrain from
making them so large that they
could be purchased later "by
oniy one Dig and wealthy com
pany."
Competition Hampered
A large company might even
buy the plants for the purpose
of closing them and keeping
them out of competition, he as
serted and added:
"Throughout its existence, the
Aluminum company of America
has bought out or hampered by
an means in lis power, every
formidable competitor that ever
threatened it."
Ickes said that additional
aluminum fabricating plants
should be located in the Pacific
northwest to process ingots pro-
auceo. in mat region. This would
eliminate cross-hauls, he de
clared, adding that "we must
take vigorous action to avoid
the necessity of taking metals
and materials on joy-rides back
ana forth across the country."
DAlSHVESSELS
T OF
TO BE TAKEN BY U .S.
Washington, June 17. (IPv
The united States placed on the
active service list yesterday six
Danish freighters, first of a ref
ugee fleet of 84 foreign ships
to be taken over by the govern
ment under provisions of legis-
Quolity that enhances summer enjoy
ment... a finer, more flavorful Iced tea.
Jrf
w
lation congress enacted two
i weeks ago.
The new law permits the gov
eminent to operate foreign ves
sels upon payment of "Just com
pensation" to the owners. Most
, di me snips io De taken over
have been tied up idle In Amer
ican ports for a year or more
because of the European war.
The commission said it would
take over other idle foreign bot
toms as quickly as possible,
These include 28 Italian and
two German ships. Whether
this action would result in the
release of additional cargo ton
nage to Great Britain commis
sion officials declined to say.
Besides the six Danish ships
taken over, there are 33 other
Danish ships in American ports.
French vessels affected number
11, including the luxury liner
Normandie. Other refugee mer
chantmen include two Estonian,
one Lithuanian and one Rumanian.

Moscow, Idaho, June 17. (JF)
A youth who gave his name
as Douglas Howell, 19, of De
troit, was In the Latah coiJnty
Jail today because he failed to
notice that a Moscow theater
proprietor held his pipe in his
hands while he was being tied
up.
The youth, charged with rob
bery of the theatre, was captured
at Pullman, Wash., seven miles
away, 15 minutes after Milburn
Kenworthy, theater manager
here., had been tied up and his
safe robbed of more than $400.
Sheriff George K. Moody ex
plained, Kenworthy slipped his
pipe between his wrists as they
were being tied and when the
robber left, slipped the pipe
away, leaving slack enough to
free his hands."
Rushing out a side door, Ken
worthy saw the robber leave in
a car with a California license
and called two friends nearby to
follow the car. The friends beat
the car to Pullman, and when it
pulled Into town, Policeman Art
