shot was fired by uerman po

fashion tried to push the police
out of the area, crying they had
no right to be there.
"The offjicer who. killed Sam

Secretary of State Byrnes pro
posed io ine united nations se
curity council today that it try
to find out from Russia and Iran
whether Russian withdrawal of
troops from Iran is "uncondition
al."
A Tuesday deadline for Secretary-General
Trygve Lie to ask
the information and report back '
to the council was suggested bv
Byrnes.
Byrnes offered a plan that at
least a majority of the council ".
had already agreed upon, after .
Hussein Ala, Iranian .ambassa- -dor,
had urged the council that
it look into Soviet assurances of
troop withdrawals.
"If the council could obtain
more adequate information,"
Byrnes said, "the council might
be able to assure itself that the
Soviet withdrawal is in effect an
unconditional withdrawal." i
Plan Backed
As soon as Byrnes finished. Sir
Alexander Cadogan of Britain
endorsed his proposal.
- -Ala had argued that withdraw
als should be "voluntary," evi
dently suggesting that Russia
should hot be allowed to use
promises to get the troops out as
a bargaining point to . get con
cessions out of Iran.
Ala informed the United Na
tions Security council that he
had instructions from his govern
ment "to take such action as I
flunk necessary to safeguard, the
security of my country." ;
free nana
Speaking before a. public ses
sion of the peace-enforcement
agency, at which an empty green
chair 'filled the table space re
served for Russia, Ala disclosed
for the first time since the Iran
ian wrangle started that he, is op
erating under , virtual blank-
check powers, v '
-tie jaiade tne statement in re
sponse to a question from Polish
Ambassador Oscar Lange sub
mitted' at a previous meeting, tie
then took up another of Lange's
questions i whether Russian
troops, are withdrawing from
Iran. -'', ; -: " -
"I have no information," Ala
said, "official or otherwise, that
any Soviet troops have crossed
the border leaving Iran."
: I have heard of certain troop
movements inside Iran but that
does not remove the issue."
Iran's appeal to the council for
help is based on tne contention
that Russian troops are in the
country in violation of a treaty
and that the resulting dispute
with Russia, if not stopped, may
lead to a threat to peace.

WASHINGTON, March 29 (f) I
Housewives will pay siignuy
more for most porK ano aDoui
a third of all beef cuts beginning
next Monday.
Announcing this today, the
rvDA eairl the increases result
from higher prices recently au
thorized for the packing industry
to offset a wage increase or ru
cents an hour.
Price hikes for veal, lamb and
mutton will be announced later.
Retail pork prices generally
will be upped an average of
three-quarters of a cent a pound,
OPA said, while beef price in
creases will average a third of
a cent a pound. . ' , ,
Increases for individual pork
and beef cuts range from one to
four cents a pound. The price
boost for most popular cuts
such as sirloin and porterhouse
steaks, bacon and pork chops and
loins will be only one cent a
n..nl -
in snme areas, ceilings for
ill not be increased
For example, there will be no
nrice change for porterhouse
steak in Los Angeles and Dallas,
according to OPA, but it will
cost a penny more a pound in
Chicago, New York and-: Nash-
VI On the other hand, there will
be an increase of a cent a pound
for flank steak in Dallas, but
not in the other cities mentioned.
The reason for these discrep
ancies, an OPA official ex
plained, is that meat prices are
fiunreri under a formula based
on costs which vary from area
to area. Retail prices are rounu
j the-nearest cent.1'
About three-fourths of all pork
cuts are being raised in price,
but only a third of beef cuts.
Beef liver and cooked corned
beef briskets are increased by
,n nentc n nnund. but other
beef variety meats remain at
the same ceiling. The onlyfitems
increased by four cents a. pound
are bulk dried beef and pacKageu
