It is believed that one proposal called for the acceptance of the principle of the interna– tional trusteeship over dependent peoples with the understanding that no concerto application of the principle would be made by the UNCIO. The question of military bases was dodged by omitting it from that part of the proposal. Another proposal would be that military bases be operated br the country having the. greatest mil– itary power in the area with final control vested in a commission of the security body. All of this is more or less after the pattern of the old league of nations mandates commission. The main difference in the proposals of the U. S. delegation will be that the new trustee body will have the power of inspection and re– port. This means that any nation holding a mandate will be com– pelled to maintain certain stand– ards of conduct in its administra- tion. crank case and bearings, will have specific time limits, Hosea R. Evans, district OPA price execu– tive explained. The time allow– ances are those established as ade– quate by the car manufacturers for standard repair jobs. The action is being taken to check a practice in sorne repair shops of charging customers for more hours of labor than were act– ually required to do the particular re~air job, Evans pointed out. Within a few weeks distribution of copies of a special OPA supple– mentary regulation giving ceiling charges for the 56 repair jobs will be made through local OPA boards. After June 14, each shop must have a copy of the new reg– ulation on hand for inspection by customers on request, Evans said. Participate in all creditable civic programs.
