ZUSY TEHRAN. Iran. June 1 .. (AP) -- President Truman took a hand personally today in the Anglo- Iralilali oil dispute by sending let- lers to Premier Mohammed Mos- sadegli and Prime Minister Attlee. Reported to urge moderation on both sides. the unusual move bv Truman indicated the extreme seriousness with which the United States Government views the oil crisis. Although the contents of the Truman letters were not disclosed. they are reported to urge Iran to negotiate with Britain before moving further to take over the British-owned Anglo-Iranian oil Company. and to express hope Britain will try to satisfy some of Iran's demands.

Main factor in fills slowing down was a break in the food sub- group. after I climb of 20 cent: since last November.
