the the I Blasts Molotov 'Dictation' Continued From Page Even the most patient people eventually resent them." Blasts Molotov's Tactics Mr. Byrnes sharply called Mr. Molotov to account for his tactics and statements before the procedure commission. He said he no longer could allow some of the Russian statements to go unchallenged. Mr.

accused Mr. Molotov of trying to get the Big Four to rig in advance the election the rules cmmission chairman. Then, Mr. Byrnes said, Mr. Molotov misrepresented the facts to the delegates.

In his speech Mr. Byrnes replied directly to a statement yesterday in which the Soviet Foreign Minister impugned the motives and aims of the American delegation. Mr. Molotov claimed there was an Saxon" effort to dominate the conference and indicated he thought Mr. Byrnes might renounce Big Four treaty agreements.

With particular bitterness, Mr. Byrnes attacked Molotov's remarks about simultaneous Four meetings to consider conference recommendations. Mr. Molotov would have the conference believe, Mr. I Byrnes said, that' Mr.

Molotov wanted a Big Four meeting last week to consider conference recommendations. The facts were, he added, that Mr. Molotov tried to get a the Big Four meeting to try chair- to settle rules commission manship in advance. Paul-Henri Spaak of Belgium was elected chairman over Edvard Kardelj of Yugoslavia, the Soviet candidate. As late as last Saturday, Mr.

Byrnes continued. Molotov again requested a Big Four meeting to determine in advance the chairmanships of various political, economic and military subcommissions. he was seeking to do was to have the Big Four Council meet to dictate who should be elected chairmen of the various commis- sions," Byrnes said. Slashes at Soviet Mr. Byrnes' denunciation was the climax of the long debate on voting procedure.

A commission sion on the two-thirds rule was expected later in the session. He recalled that Russia in London last September had opposed inclusion of China and France in the Council of Foreign Ministers, and in Moscow had sought to limit the size of the Peace Conference. "We have encountered at step Soviet attempt to restrict the drafting of peace treaties to the smallest number of great power," Mr. Byrnes said. "Since this commission opened I have not uttered one word about the position taken here by the Soviet Union," he said.

"On no occasion, as you all know, have I ever questioned the Soviet delegate's motives, and I am sure you shared my surprise when Mr. Mototov injected this note into our discussions here." Mr. Byrnes spoke with considerable bitterness and venom in his voice, compared to his usual mild and measured tone. Much of the time he looked directly at Mr. Molotov as he contined to drive home his charges.

Recalling that yesterday "Mr. Molotov presumed to lecture me about consistency," Mr. Byrnes pointed one Mr. Molotov's own inconsistenceles. During the Big Four meetings, he said, Mr.

Molotov agreed on countries who would consider treaties with Hungary. Yet, when the conference opened, the Russians tried to bring Poland into that commission belately. "Yet no member of the council thought of criticizing him," Mr. Byrnes said. He pointed out that Mr.

Molotov concluded his remarks on voting procedure yesterday offering an which was almost a duplicate of amendment to the two rule amendments offered by France and Britain. Mr. Molotov had spoken against the British amendment. "But he would have been utterly surprised if anyone had criticized him of inconsistency in offering that amendment," the American leader Cites Aid to Russia When the United States offered aid to Russia, he continued, the people did not question its motives. He said American admirathe Soviet people would not be affected "by any statement Mr.

Molotov might have made." He read extensively from Big Four minutes to show that he had made reservations allowing him to take any position here on procedural rules he deemed wise. It was with thi; understanding that he agreed to let the Big Four send "suggested" rules to the conference. "Mr. Molotov heard that," Mr. Byrnes said sharply.

As he read each point from the minutes Mr. Byrnes turned to Mr. Molotov and said, Mr. Molotov heard that." "My friend Mr. Molotov says I agreed to support the rules of cedure.

This is a misrepresentation of the views of the United States and I want members of the conference to know the facts." Mr. Byrnes said he repeatedly stated his reservations in the Big Four meeting because he knew from past experience that otherwise it would have been stated later that he was bound by the Big Four suggesItions. view of the fact that Mr. Molotov was present at all times and heard all these statements, I think you will agree with my surprise at his statement yesterdaynot content with mis representing my position, Mr. Molotov stated that if the United States delegation did not consider itself bound on ques-1 tions of procedure, it is possible it would not consider itself bound on other subjects not connected with procedure," Byrnes said.

"The United States will keep their word as to both instances." Will Back Provisions Mr. Byrnes had said previously that he considered himself bound to stick by all Big Four agreements on treaty provisions. He said he would vote for them in this conference. At a plenary session last week Prime Minister W. L.

MacKenzie King of Canada proposed that the Big Four meet simultaneously with the conference to speed up treaty making. Mr. Byrnes had suggested it last month in Washington, too, and yesterday suggested it again. I Mary C. Hughes, Henrietta Beale, Wm.

Molotov expressed surprise later, saying Mr. Byrnes rejected the idea when Mr. Molotov first proposed it, but was in favor of it now that Canada had suggested it. Mr. Byrnes said Mr.

Molotov's statement did not agree with the facts and was an attempt to make the conference believe that the Big Four meeting Mr. Molotov suggested was for the same purpose suggested by Canada.

I Average prices dropped about percent during the last week in July, the agency said. It added, however, that prices are still about 31 percent higher than a year ago.

Meanwhile, a bureau spokesman said the estimated percent rise in overall consumer living costs during the June-July period "is the largest on increase recordsince the agency began cost surveys in late 1940 The bureau said that food registered the largest increase. Living essentials other than food increased less than 1 percent during the period. Rents were not surveyed. Draft Is Indicated Washington, Aug. 6.

(U.P.)-Army and Selective Service officials said today the recent drop in voluntary enlistments will force the drafting of 25,000 inductees a week when the draft is resumed. They said July enlistments averaged only 9,500 a week -well below the goal of 25,000 a weer. Secretary of War Robert P. Patterson recently announced the army had hoped- to obtain all needed men through voluntary enlistments. But despite the 50 percent pay increase recently granted servicemen, the recruitment drive fell far short of expectations.

Army officials attributed this failure to increased business opportuniteis in civilian industry, the stoppage of Negro enlistments and abandonment of a number of recruitment inducements July 1. Works Slash to Hit Road, Airport Plans Washington, Aug. 6 (U.P)-Government officials believed today that roads and airports may be the chief of a $700,000,000 cut in the public works program during the current fiscal year.

1. In all, Mr. Steelman said, the building program must be from $1,600,000,000 to $900,000,000. Although he did not disclose where the public works money was to have been spent, it is known that 000,000 was earmarked for the Public Roads Administration. The Civil Aeronautics Administration planned to spend $50,000,000 onairports.

Civilian production administration officials said the roads and airports program cut actually may amount to $1,000,000,000 as Federal money for the projects is matched dollar-for-dollar by the States. Other projects which may be blotted out or drastically curtailed include reclamation, Federal office buildings non-critical construction planned by the army and navy. Mr. Steelman said that President Truman authorized the cut-back to stem inflation and conserve scarce materials.
