evolved by a committee headed
by Senator Vandenberg of Michi-
gan, seemed acceptable to all sides
here as a document which gave
comfort to both those who wanted
a specific commitment for inter-
national collaboration and those
who wanted no infringement on
American freedom of action in the
postwar world.
The latter found satisfaction in
the "sovereign nations provision
and further qualification that this
country's interests must be pro-
tected first in any world league
and it's participation limited by
observance of it's constitutional
forms.
Those who have favored wider
intervention in world affairs ap-
plauded what they regarded as
an advance position for the party,
as expressed in the following re-
commentator:
Prosecution of the war by a
United Nation to conclusive VIC
tory over all our enemies, includ-

Republican Group Writes
Postwar Foreign Policy

MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich,
Sept. 7-tR-Witk all outward signs
of perfect harmony, the Republi-
can postwar advisory council
wrote foreign policy charter to-
day pledging its party to foster
responsible participation by the
United States in an organization
among sovereign nations to halt
future military aggression.
That done, this organization of
40 federal, state and party office
holders gave speedy approval of
a revised domestic front statement
condemning the New Deal for what
it termed Fascist tendencies and
adjourned to await the verdict of
the country on its attempt to lay
the groundwork for the 1914 Re-
publican platform.
Although Representatives of Wen
dell L. Willkie, the 1910 presiden-
tlal nominee were conspicuously
absent, divergent elements of the
party stamped their approval on
a declaration which urged:
Irresponsible participation by
the United States in postwar CO.

ereign nations to prevent military
aggression and TO attain perman-
ent peace with organized justice
in a free world"

The first train since the wreck

shocked-a good part of it already
is-and for the good of humanity
there ought to be a period during
which everyone can catch his
breath before the writing of the
peace.
This means, it was explained,
that for a time the victors will
have to maintain the peace ana
during this transition period the
United States and Great Britain
would continue t n e r combined
chiefs of staff in operation -
move which Prime Minister Chur-
chill suggested in his address at
Harvard university yesterday. The
system OF maintaining combined
chiefs of staff might even work
so well, the American authority
suggested, that it would be con-
tinued indefinitely.
Speculation that italy m y be
ready to sue for peace was stir
red afresh by the indications that
a Roosevelt-C hurchill-S Stain con-
ference may be held in the near
future and the word that the Med
iterranean commission will endea-
vor to bring peace to that area.
Matters of high policy to guide
such a commission might well be
high on the agenda of an Anglo
American-Russian conference.
For months, President Roose-
welt and Prime Minister Churchill
have sought meeting with Pre-
mier Stain, but as late as last
Saturday the word in authorita-
tive quarters was that the Soviet
leader had continued to send word
that he was too busy directing
operations on the battlefront.

FIRE SPREAD QUICKLY
43 OF Dead Were Unable

Fire sweeping a small, ancient
hotel trapped and burned the life
out of As screaming, terrified men
today.
Forty-three of them never got
out Of the three-story Gulf hotel
at Preston and louisiana streets in
midtown Houston.
They died fighting to get down
the one fire escape not blocked
off by the flames. Two died IN
hospitals. Thirty-two were inJur-
ed, several probably fatally. Six
teen men were released after hos
pital treatment.
It was Houston's most deadly
fire and the costliest disaster in
the state since the New London
schoolhouse explosion which took
294 lives March IS, 1887.

that 1 have ever seen in my ca

Cause Of the blaze had not been

The hotel, located on the second
and third floors of the three-story
building, was used mostly by
transients but a number of reg

there. Some were old men, some
were cripples.
Few of the dead men had been
identified.

SUCCESS EXPLAINED

WASHINGTON, Sept. SIP
The early success of agrees
sor nations was explained this
way in General George c. Mar
shaI's report:
democratic governments de-
vote their resources primarily
to improving the standards of
living of their people.
Therefore, when attacked
by nations which have concen-
trated on preparations for a
war of conquest, the initial
successes inevitably will go to
the aggressors.
"This was the case with the
democracies of western Europe
and later on was found true in
the case of the United States"
For the United States, he
said, the initial recovery re-
quired the eight months up to
the beginning of aggressive &C
ton at Guadalcanal.
