Jones left after two hours and
told questioners that any statement
to be made about the White House
conference would be by Byrnes.
Wallace remained with Byrnes 20
minutes longer and departed for
his own office on Capitol Hill.
Jones evidently was astonished to
learn that Wallace, and not Byrnes,
had been nominated to advise the
public of the peace parleys. After
reading WallaceS' post-conference
statement, Jones fired off a two
paragraph blast that seemed to end
all truce hopes and to mark as a
failure Byrnes' first major effort
to umpire a big time policy dis
pute.
Wallace said he and Jones had
agreed That for the time being the
RFC would continue to finance the
BEW. And he said Jones had not
objected TO a proposal that con-
gress be asked after its summer
recess to make BEW independent
by voting directly to it the funds

curement and development of i'm
