By JOHN P. MeKNIGHT

VATICAN CITY. June 2—-(AP) --—Pope Pius today warned the major powers of the world that the remaining months of mr-a your that "future generations will either biesa or curse"-migbt be their "last opportunity" to chart an enduring peace.

In his hardest-hitting speech in years, he said the world had fail- ed humillatlnkly thus far in 194"! to aolva its war-born problems.

"The wounds caused by the war have not yet been healed." the slender, '11-year-old Pope said. "Indeed, some of them have rath- ur bean deepened and Jnfiamed.

The Ponttff assorted that the verdict of hiatory would hlnlfl 0h "events and discussions!‘ durinl the balance of the year. and ura- ad "wars of tliienlstatcs not to le: slip ophoru l’.

"It may be-God forbid-the last opportunity.” he added.

universal prosperity which would result from an Allied victory.

“But where is it?" he asked. "Where are. indeed, countries where the wheels of industry turn rapidly and work without ‘intar- ruption and at a maximum capa- city.

"Production. o v e r ~ production. that. is the golden key, the sesame, the secret formula that would wipe out the last traces of the cvils of the war and fill up the craters it made.

“But the prosperity of nations cannot be safe and secure if all do not share in it. Hence it is not unlikely that. idleness and the impossibility of commerce in which some nations find them- selves placed will automatihlly cause in the near future economic crises and unemployment even in other nations aa well."

The Pope said that millions of péople were still living "under oppression and despotic rule," while the world waited for lua- tico and law to create stpbla con- ditlons.

"For- them nothing is safe. neither home, nor IONS. nor lib- erty, nor honor." he said. "Thus the last ray of happiness, the lall spark of courage dies in their

Over the whole Province, Agriculture lllinlster Kennedy estimated that 60 per cent of acreage sown to feed grains had been seeded but that only hall’ of thla acreage will be harvested-in other words, the best that could be hoped for was a yield on 30 per cent of Ontario's 3.230.000 feed grain acres.

WASHINGTON. Julne 2 —(AlP)— The United States in a double- barreled action today out off a $15,000,000 credit to Huxlgaryb new pro-Communist regime and promis- ed further aid to Italy's non-Com- mnsnlst government.

State Secretary Marshall an- nounced that "pending clarificat- ion" of last week's events in Hung- lry which led to the omter of Premier Ferenc Nagy, the remain- ing half of an original $30,000,000 credit to Hungary for purchase of American stuplua properly has been suspended. ' By contrast. Mural-mil in a state- mmt wished "every success" to the slowly-reorganized Italian Gov. ernmant of Premier Alclde de Gasperi and added:

“We shall continue to give aidto the Italian people who have dem- onstrated their sincere and abiding faith in democratic ymcesses for the preservation of their individual liberties and basic human rghts."
