But to consider the recommenda- tions without a study of the full report invites à some- what fnise perspective of the committee's delibern- tions and conclusions. The report makes its manifestly clear that the committee reached no snap judgments. On the contrary consider. uble time and effort was put into studying the whole problem of rent control.

Exporting Drugs To Earn Dollars

United Nations, Apr. 15.

The United States today accused Communist China of officially exporting narcotics to get American dollars and strategic materials and said the British authorities were making diligent efforts to suppress the drug traffic through Hongkong.

PANIC FOLLOWS: SEVERAL PERSONS INJURED

Buenos Aires, Apr. 15.

Two bombs exploded today about 400 feet from President Peron while he was addressing a gathering from a balcony of Government House. Several persons were trampled and injured in the ensuing panic.

President Peron, who was unhurt, tried to calm the uproar after several minutes of confusion.
