the 37th animal Governors Con
ference yesterday after promis
ing to examine and act at once
on complexities of homcfront
supply and distribution of food
particularly of meat.
Endorse Charter
Sharp sectional conflicts de
veloped over the warborn food
problem after three days of har
monious discussion generated by
unanimous endorsement of . the
San Francisco world security
charter.
In a resolution covering the
food study, the governors en
dorsed continued federal food
administration but authorized a
three member committee to ex
plore conditions and seek possi
ble remedies In cooperation with
federal officials.
The state chief executives
were pledged to go back home
and evangelize for public sup
port of United States leadership
in the international peace eon-fcrence.
First Since 1776 .
The July Fourth endorsement
of the United Nations charter
was the first foreign policy com
mitment by the states, in con
cert, since the Declaration of In
dependence in 1776.
Gov. Edward Martin of Penn
sylvania was elected new con
ference chairman. He succeeds
Gov. Herbert B. Maw of Utah.
In six resolutions, the confer
ence advocated broader powers
for the states In administrative
functions now managed by the
federal government. These In
cluded: I
(1) Allocation of "more tax1
revenue sources" to state levy;
(3) state supervision of unem
ployment compensation pay
ments; (3) state management of
employment services; (4) state
supervision of federal aviation
development funds; (5) retention
of the National Guard, and (6)
uniform state direction of all
federal-state cooperative actions,
Ration Criticism
The food problem resolution
evoked criticism from midwest-
ern governors against federal
food management "without test
ing the needs and sentiments of
various localities.
Gov. Andrew Schoeppel of
Kansas led a movement for a
gubernatorial committee to meet
with federal officials. He also
favored a recommendation for
rigid inspections on imported
meat from South America.
Northwestern governors tried
to get endorsement of their plan
for separate ration stamps for
meat, divorcing the coupons
from butter and other fats. This
was lost when a brief resolution
was passed authorizing forma
tion of the committee.
