Other Work for Police
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star
In The Star Of August II I saw that
a man had been arrested for feeding
pigeons in Franklin Park. An officer
claimed that the man left too much
bread in the park and that it drew
hordes of rats. This 1 do not believe.
Being a lover Of birds, I have been feed
ing them all my life and it seems to
me that the average pigeon can eat
almost its own weight In food With
a flock of 200 pigeons or more in
park there would be scant pickings for
the rats when the pigeons were through.
Now I will come to the point of this
communication. I am a resident of
the Skyland Apartments located at
Twenty-fifth street and Good Hope road
Sc. and can testify that Good Hope
road from Twenty-fourth street down
to Twentieth street is being used as
dumping ground for trash and garbage.
The same thing applies to Twenty fifth
stSeet down toward Pennsylvania
avenue Sc
After cleaning fish, the heads are
thrown out by the side of the road; and
I have seen crab shells by the bushel,
as well as all kinds of trash. In this
hot weather it is not too sweet a spec
tacle. Why don't the police do some
thing about condition like this, instead
of arresting man for feeding pigeons?

Uruguay

Yesterday was independence Day
in Uruguay. It was on August Is,
1925, that LA Republica Oriental"
announced to the world its nation
hood. Long a contention between
Spain and Portugal, the eastern
shore" of the Plata River was the
home of a people to whom freedom
was very precious. The story of how
they won the right of self f-govern-
ment is both dramatic and compel
ling.
What needs saying at this mo-
ment, however, is that Uruguay con-
tinues to strive for the fruits of ma
tional integrity in the present gen.
Grafton as much as in any of the
past. It was enlisted on the side of
civilization in 1917 and is one of the
United Nations in 1914. Meanwhile,
it has pioneered a course of social
progress which compares favorably
with that of New Zealand. Its pro-
grams for social security, public in
struction and public health are mod
els deserving of close study. Their
best recommendation is that they
thus far have been successful in ap-
plication to a surprising degree.
But Uruguay is interesting in 9TH
er respects than those of sociology.

France of Tomorrow

There is much to commend the
suggestion that France be included
as a major power in the executive
council of the international security
organization to be set up after the
war. Up to now all discussion re-
volving around the Dumbarton Oaks
conference has envisioned the pro-
posed council as body made up
principally of Britain, Russia, China
and the United States, plus "a suit
able number" of smaller nations.
But it is difficult to visualize future
Europe in which the French will
not hold a position of leadership.
For centuries-culturally, politically
and militarily-they have been one
of the worlds great peoples and
their country has held a foremost
place in our western civilization, so
that it seems almost unnatural,
against their background of ancient
strength and glory, to think of them
becoming in the years ahead less
than what they have been for so
long time.
History, to be sure, is replete with
the record of the rise and fall of
mighty nations, and France in 1910
certainly suffered the kind of dis
aster that has sent other powers
into permanent decline. Neverthe-
less, as dramatically symbolized by
the liberation Of Paris and the work
of their heroic underground forces,
the French still retain that force,
that spirit, that character with
which even countries of relatively
small population succeed in achiev-
ing major stature in the world. In
the years leading up to the present
war, they were divided people,
but they have since passed together
through such a trial by fire and
shown such a degree of steadfast-
ness and valor that it may reason
ably be hoped that they have
arrived at new unity and will be
able, learning from bygone mistakes,
to rebuild their land in a way that
will be in keeping with their
rich past.
In any event, the Europe Of to-
morrow, the world of tomorrow, will
be poorer place If France has but
weak voice in it. Perhaps, with its
limited population and industrial
deficiencies, this country cannot
hope to be the military equal of the
United States, Russia or the British
Commonwealth of Nations, but
neither can China, which is never
theless one Of the big Four"

Leuse-Lend Debts

Leo T. Crowley, foreign economic
administrator, has taken what looks
like the first step in an effort to
"unsel" the people of this country
on the belief that the foreign re-
cipients of lease-lend aid are going
to repay us in any conventional
sense of that term.
Addressing the Advertising Club
of Washington, Mr.. Crowley said
that "since lease-lend material is
being used against our mutual
enemy it is questionable whether our
Allies should be required to repay
u.s." Now that statement, or rather
its implication that we should not
seek repayment, may be sound
enough. But the unfortunate part
is that this is not what the people
of this country were led to expect
when lease-lend was first proposed.
At that time the impression was
created that we would be repaid for
the assistance to be extended, in
kind if not in dollars. Perhaps that
was helpful in selling" lease-lend
to the country in the first instance,
but if it develops in the future that
we are not going to be repaid, then
the early job of salesmanship is apt
to pay dividends in the form of re-
sentiment and bad feeling toward
our present Allies.
We have had unhappy experiences
of this sort in the past and, aside
from the lease-lend matter, there is
serious danger that we will have
more in the future. First impress
sions take" we'll on the American
people. They are easily oversold.
But it behooves the statesmen to re-
member that there comes an inev-
liable day of reckoning, a day when
the congenial atmosphere that can
be established on the basis of false
impressions gives way to cynicism
and disillusionment.

The Political Mill
By Gould Lincoln

collaboration, the subject of peace and
security and this country's participa-
ton should be discussed widely in the
campaign. Not for the purpose of par
tisan political gain, but to inform the
people and to gain their support, Re-
pubncans and Democrats alike, for the
tremendous adventure" in interna-
tional peace. II this course is followed
it will be a novel experiment in Amer
ican politics. The danger is that con-
flict of views will arise as men seek
political advantage. AS of today, how
ever the question Of foreign relations
OF this country has been removed as
far as possible from the presidential
campaign.
The creation of an international Or
ganization to keep the peace in the
future is only one part OF the problem
Unless the peace which Is made at the
conclusion of the war is as just peace
as can be written, no League of Nations.
however good, will in the end prevent
conflict.
There are differences of opinion today
over the need for an international police
force. These differences, however, do
not affect the leadership of both polit-
ical parties in this country. Neither is
supporting such police force. Rather
they believe that the nations should be
prepared to use their own forces, when
necessary, to maintain peace. From
other nations may come demand for
an international police force and it is q
matter which will have to be settled in
future conferences, If not at the present
Dumbarton Oaks meeting of British,
Russian and American representatives.
The American idea is that force shall
be last resort to prevent world con-
f1agration-that all possible mechanisms
to preserve peace, through international
tribunals, be exhausted before a resort
to arms. This does not mean, however,
that force would not be used and used
quickly if any aggressor nation should
seek to put aside the terms of peace-as
Hitler did when he was elevated to
power In Germany.
It is extremely important that this era
Of good feeling on peace and security
should continue in the Senate. For in
the end that body must pass upon not
only the international organization for
peace, but also upon the terms of the
peace made after the war is over.

Bulgaria Next?
By Mai. Georee Fielding Eliot

south and east OF the Carpath1anS will
now become Allied territory-not only
the loss of Bulgaria too, but it brings
Russian troops to the frontiers of Yugo-
slavia. When that happens, the Ger
man position in Yugoslavia and Greece
becomes almost automatically unten-
able. Already the resistance Of the
Yugoslav and Greek patriot armies has
occupied the attention of some Is Ger
man divisions and this force has been
unable effectively to control the coun-
try. Obviously the addition Of Russian
pressure from the east will require the
Germans either strongly to reinforce
their Balkan armies, or to cut their
losses and retire to shorter and more
easily defended lines-perhaps giving
up Greece, Albania and good part Of
Southern and Central Yugoslavia. The
effect of this would be the opening up
of a new southern front, with the Ger
mans forced to put forth considerable
effort to prevent Allied forces from
crashing through into the Hungarian
plains.
One Of the most important effects Of
such situation would be the fact that
the Germans could not afford to ignore
this threat, but would have to make
a fight to prevent the crumbling Of
their southern defenses. This would
prevent the transfer of troops from this
front to any other-the main eastern
front or the French front The troops
in the Balkans, instead of being a po-
tential reserve, would become fully en-
gagged, with the danger from that side
as great as from the east or the west.
= = =
OF course it will take time to bring
this situation about. Time is now the
factor Of utmost Importance tn the
whole European theater Of war. The
Germans are hoping to last out the
winter; II they can do that, they may
have time to develop new weapons and
to seek by political means an ameliora-
ton Of their present desperate condi-
ton. Only comparatively short period
Of good fighting weather now remains.
On the west, the German hold on
France is slipping away: Allied COM
manders can begin to think in terms
of the Rhine rather than the Seine and
the Rhone. On the east Russian ar
mics gather for the final blow against
East Prussia and Warsaw. Now Q new
threat rises to the southeast.

An era Of good will on the tremen-
dous subject Of peace and security is
today embracing both major political
parties. This Is true in the Senate,
which under the Constitution, will
eventually be called upon to ratify
an international agreement setting up
the machinery for the maintenance Of
permanent peace. It is true also of the
leadership on both sides which is now
planning for the election campaign-as
evidenced by the conferences between
Secretary of State Hull and John Fos-
ter Dulles, representative of Gov. Dewey
of New York.
1t is vital that this good will shall
continue if the United States and the
rest of the world are to have the bene-
fit Of American participation In the pro-
posed peace machinery. Without that
participation there can be no hope and
the world will remain an armed camp
"for years to come, with war always just
around the corner. --a
The great impeling argument for the
handling Of the peace and the estab-
lishment of peace machinery on nom
partisan basis-in this country-is the
war itself Senator Vandenberg Of
Michigan, who in the past has been de-
scribed as a member of the isolationist
group-a description which he himself
insists is not accurate-has put the
situation succinctly. In his opinion
and in the opinion of the majority Of
Americans-the picture today is vastly
different from that which prevailed
in 1890 when the United States, be-
cause of Senate failure to ratify the
Versailles Treaty and the accompanying
league covenant. remained aloof from
the rest of the world.
The "murderous ingenuity Of mod
ern military science" as Mr.. Vanden-
berg has put it, makes the prospect Of
a third World War terrifying to de-
gree that every sane person will do
his Utmost to prevent such an occur
renee. And so the participation of the
United States in international organ
ization for the maintenance Of peace
seems today assured.
No attempt will be made to halt dis
cussion of this country's foreign rela-
,tions In the campaign. Indeed, in the
opinion of Senator Vandenberg and Of
Senator Austin, another Republican who
is devoted to the cause of international
Evening star., 1944-08-26

Armed strength, after all, is not the
sole measure Of greatness, and as
suming that they will be able to
unity and reorganize themselves
into a strong new republic, the
French, with the wisdom, culture
and experience Of centuries behind
them, can surely retain their status
as one Of the worlds major intel
lectual and political makeweights.
Viewed in that light, France clearly
merits being regarded as a power
likely to play a key role-probably
not now, but at least eventually
in the international security organi-
Zation currently being considered.

Mr.. Douglas, the new Premier Of sas-
katchewan, is running true to CCF
form. Having taken full advantage of
the constitutional method to secure
Office, he now seeks to break it down in
the interests of one-party rule. With his
continuing attack on what he calls

greatly concerned. Capitalism rs the
CCFs whipping boy and without 1t
the Socialists would be in q very bad
way indeed.
What interests us at the moment.
however, is Premier Douglas'-and pre-

the courts. Speaking at the annual con.
vention Of the party's Saskatchewan Sec
tion yesterday, Premier Douglas said
there was every likelihood that the
courts will continue to interpret legisla-
ton in terms of the past rather than in
terms of changing world"
Premier Douglas has evidently never
heard of the law nor Of the judges duty

Good War Song Wanted
To the Editor of The Sta,

o tHe EQlIor OF ne Star.
Much has been said about the COM
placency of the folks back home con-
corning the war. One reason is that we
have not had one single heart-warming
song to come out Of the war During
the first World War the boys over there
and the folks back here were singing
the same songs-linking them to each
other. There were Keep the Home
Fires Burning" Long. Long Trail"
Roses of Picardy," Till We Meet
Again" "Over There" and many Others
You can't sing a song and not feel
what's back Of it. The songs we sang
and felt were the link between us and
the boys over there and we knew they
were singing the same songs and think
ing the same thoughts.
Is it too late for some one to write
really beautiful heart-warming song
about the soldier and his dreams?

This Changing World
By C0Ssf1SfiNs BrosuH

Rumors are flying wildly among those
relatively few In Washington who are
interested in the security conference
at Dumbarton Oaks. This conference,
OF course, is Of major Importance and
should interest the people Of the United
States who may be called on to approve
momentous agreements.
But the strict censorship which has
been clemped on all Information re-
garding the exchange Of views among
the delegates Of the three major pow
ers has taken the parley out Of the
limelight 1t justly deserves. The press
officers Of the American delegation are
doing their best to placate the news
papermen who are attempting to cover
the conference from q distance, but
they are powerless because they them
selves do not have access to anything Of
Importance.
And, If by chance some of the Incl
oents which are said to be occurring
came to their attention they would not
be permitted to talk. As for the chiefs
Of the delegation and their assistants,
they are in Washington to be seen and
not heard.
CAOul tllC llCll CIOP VI OGlIlB
spread from drawing rooms which have
their contacts" and some political
circles, it appears that chief point of
discussion among the Russian, British
and American representatives relates
to the shape Of the new League Of Ma
tions and how 1t can best be made ac-
ceptable to the people Of this country.
The Russians, it is said, are not par
ticularly interested in revival of the
old Geneva organization under q diff
ferent name but with the same owners.
They believe the peace Of the world must
be maintained by the strongest mill
tary and industrial powers, America,
Britain and the U. S. S. r., which should
have powerful air forces, navies and
armies to be rushed to the danger
spot" as soon as there are indications of
trouble. And by trouble they are said
to mean not only aggressions in the
sense Of those of 1899 but also internal
strife, revolutions and civil wars. In
ether words, the Russians take the
word peace to mean a perfect state of
internal and external quiet.
The British, on the other hand, are
said to oppose such plan because it
would involve keeping or sending British
forces to some areas which are not
necessarily interesting to the empire.
While the reputed plan has some ad-
vantages because in the event of a re-
bellion in India, for instance, they could
Evening star., 1944-08-26

draw on League" troops, the British
would not want to have to disperse their
forces to keep order In some remote
portion Of Europe. The British have
been at war for I'VE years and have
suffered serious losses. More may be
expected before the war Is over. Britain
wants to put her men back to construc-
tive work The British plan for world
security Is said to be political council
as we saw at Geneva. aided by a mill
tary planning council patterned after
that Of the Combined Chiefs OF STATS
now functioning in Washington. The
latter would plan what coercive meas
ures might be necessary under given
circumstances and decide what forces
should be sent to crush aggressions, re-
bellions and revolutions after the DO
htical council has advised them to
do 80.
How correct these rumors are is difi-
cult to say, since. there Is no hint on
the part Of the ofncials involved in the
discussions about what Is being said to
be planned at Dumbarton Oaks.
At the same time, 1t Is rumored that
the French, who heretofore have been
considered as a minor military power
which would require many years before
1t could re-enter the concert Of great
powers and have not been asked to join
In the conference here, are to be in
vited to sit in before China can send
her representatives.
Who has nominated France is still a
mystery and an object Of many rumors.
According to some diplomats who VOL
unteer information at cocktail parties
where the conference is the main topic
Of discussion, the American Govern
ment did not wish to bring France into
the discussions for the time being. The
American point of view was to wait until
the political situation cleared up in
France after the entire country has been
liberated and formal government has
replaced the present provisional admin
istration.
The British, who in recent months
have supported Gen. Charles de Gaulle
more strongly than previously, are re-
ported to have insisted that the pro-
visional government appoint a full
fledged delegation to this conference.
The Russians are said to have been
Indifferent over whether or not the
French become partners. The reluc-
tance Of the American representatives to
admit Gen. de Gaulle's diplomats and
technical advisers is now under strong
pressure from London.
