A—-10 = U.S. HELD CLEAR OFREGH DISPUTE Versailles Treaty Violation Does Not Conflict With Pact, Says Pittman. By the Arsociated Press An emphatic -assertion that the United States Government is “not in- terested” in the question “whether the Hitler government has violated the Versailles treaty” came today from Chairman Pittman of the Sen- ate Foreign Relations Committee. He expressed the 'personal opinion that “our Government should not in- Ject itself directly or indirectly into the controversy.” His statement, given in an inter- view, came as President Roosevelt and the State Department ap- parently were determined to await a crystal- ization abroad before making any move. In diplomatic quar- ters yesterday it was denied that the United States had drafted a note of protest against Hitler's conscription edict as a violation of the peace treaty between Germany States.

Pittman, advocate of & hands-off policy in foreign affairs in general and in the current European crisis | in particular, gave legal reasons to back up an earlier statement that the | Hitler move is not a matter for American concern. He spoke of the situation as of “grave seriousness” and dictated the following statement to the Associated Press as he paced his office: “The controversy existing between the governments of Great Britain, France and Italy on one part and the Hitler government on the other in- volves the question as to whether the Hitler government has violated the Versailles treaty. “It does not involve tte question as | to whether the Hitler government has | violated any of the terms of the sep- |arate treaty entered into batween the United States and Germany (at the close of the World War). | Vereailles Treaty Adopts League. | “The United States is not a party to | the Versailles treaty.

The ability of packers to operate to capacity during this season with rapid turnover of stocks has been due largely to the co-operation of interested distributors to pass out the goods to the consumer on equally narrow margins. Due to the attractive prices at which Grapefruit and Grapefruit Jui.ce have been offered, consumption has greatly in- creased with shipments to date, both domestic and export, far in excess of any previous season in proportion to the pack.
