Striking again with characteristic

heavy bombardment on enemy po-

EUROPE:
CiuiL Strife

OCUtc Otf we
Added to the Allied military bur-
den in Europe was the political
problem posed by Leftist rebellion
in Greece.
Started when Leftist liberation
guerrilla forces refused to surrender
their arms on the ground that Pre-
mier Papandreou's Rightist ele-
ments were allowed to retain theirs,
the uprising brought British troops
into action to restore order.
Situated just north of the Suez
canal, Greece commands this vital
waterway route linking Britian's
eastern empire with its homeland;
and for this reason, London has
taken the greatest interest in condi-
tons there.
To assure its position about
Suez, the British have backed
Papandreou's Rightist elements as
against the Leftists, including Com
munists. In calling British troops in
to action to suppress the rampaging
Leftist elements, British Maj. Gen.
R. M. Scobie declared: &C. I
stand firmly behind the constitution
al government and shall aid them
to the limit of my resources until
the Greek state can be reestablished

In heavy fighting on both Euro

punch forward, with the U. S. 3rd

AS a result of General Patton's
smash into the Saar, the great in

EARTHQUAKES:
Rocks Japan

Centering in the Sea Of Enshu,
100 miles southeast of Tokyo, an
earthquake, so powerful that its
tremors threw a recording ma
chine in London out of gear,
struck Japan, causing serious
loss.
Without Immediately reveal
ing the exact extent of damage,
the Japanese reported that the
tremOrS caused landslides, cav
ing-in houses and streets along
a 150-mile belt across the main
island of Honshu. Huge tidal
waves rolling i'm from the Sea
of Enshu flooded coastal dis
tricts below Tokyo, deluging
homes.
Although the Japanese claimed
that the quake did not damage
their war industry conferred
around the Tokyo district, they
remained silent about the effect
that the mounting tidal wave
had upon their all-important
shipping, a-sea and at port.

MEAT INCOME

The income from meat animals
will reach an all-time record this
year, approximating one-third of
the total farm income, or more than
6ls billion dollars, George M. Lewis,
director of marketing of the Ameri-
can Meat institute, predicted.
Tracing the trends of livestock
production for 1945, Lewis said the

culture estimates the marketings of
cattle and calves will be about 80
million head, or a million more than
his year, the highest on record.

SEAWAY:
Back Again

Rejected as treaty requiring a
two-third vote by the senate in 1884,
the $421, 100000 St. Lawrence Sea-
way project, providing a complete
waterway link from the Great Lakes
to the Atlantic ocean, bobbed up
again in the upper house, this time
in the form of an agreement re-
quiring a simple majority.
Calling for construction of dams,
canals and water-works at an ex-
pense of SPIT 100000 to the U. S.
and $144, 0O0,0 to Canada, the prof.
ect was to be introduced as an
amendment to the rivers and har-
Dor bill by Sen. George Aiken (Vt.).
One of President Roosevelt's pet
projects, the St. Lawrence Seaway
has been the subject of lively dis
cussion, with advocates charging
private power interests with block
ing its passage, and opponents claim
ing that only Canada stood to benefit
from it. Aiken's attempt to pass
the project as an agreement rather
than a treaty further famed the
flames, with opponents stressing
that anything as vital to our inter-
national relations properly deserved
the extended support of the country
as whole, as exemplified in a two
third senate vote.

Stifen Policy

First official act of Secretary of
State Edward Stettinius was to blast
at Britain's and Russia's maneuver-
ing in liberated European countries
to establish governments favorable
to their interests.
Declaring &c. We expect the
Italians to work out their problems
of government along democratic
lines without influence from out
side :" Stettinius aimed his
blast at Britain's objections to the
naming of Count Carlo Sforza as
foreign minister in a new Italian
administration. Britain's attitude, it
was said, was the result of Sforza's
anti-monarchical tendencies.
Although not specifically men
toned, Russia could get no comfort
from Stettinius' statement, which in
directly hit at Moscow's political &C.
tivities in reoccupied countries by
declaring: &c. This policy would
apply to an even more pronounced

Foreign Policy
Must Interest Nation

And that brings me to the last OBJ
servation which is the most impor-
tant: the formation of a definite
American foreign policy.
The reason why we have had mo
foreign policy in the past is be-
cause the people have been too busy
with their own affairs to demand any
special treatment for other coun-
tries except that they be let alone.
But increasingly since World War /,
the people have come to realize that
the consequences of acts of govern
ment which affect other nations are
very likely to react on the individ-
ual Americans private affairs.
1t is fairly well established by this
time that one reason why we had
depression in the '30s was that the
world went broke and wouldn't buy
from us. Less broadly realized but
growing clearer to most people is
the fact that although we loaned
money abroad to nations with which
to buy their goods, when we refused
to buy their goods (shut them out
with high tariffs) they couldn't earn
the money to repay us. Then they
went broke and we lost our trade as
well as our money. Other ma
tons which might have bought spent
their money to get ready for war
which eventually stopped all buying.
Now many of the best business
brains of the country have walked
up to the fact that if this nation is
going to achieve prosperity after
the war, it is going to have some
thing to say about foreign policy
that will produce stable world.
In a democracy there can be no
foreign policy unless the people
make it, and = unless foreign af-
fairs become personal affairs, the
people do not express themselves.
Their public servants do the best
they can in the short period of their
terms or periods of influence. The
permanent members of the foreign
service move along according to a
pattern which has little to do with
the swift vicissitudes of present
day life and, until recently, no more
attuned to the healthy and human
sounds and scenes in field and mar
ket-place than an ancient princeling
surrounded by courtiers and serv-
ing-men.

which deal with passports and

tional atmosphere of gold seals, tail
coats and top hats.
But what about aviation and ship

And what about the whole great,

will be continued when peace comes.
Here is lodged the responsibility for

and the omega-of the coordination
not only Of policy but of action"
on such a highly businesslike mat
ter as the procurement of all essen
tial war materials from foreign
countries.
You may be the lowliest or the
mightiest of importers or exporters,
but if you wish to buy or sell such
materials you will have to talk with
a representative of the department
of state.
Then there is complete "office Of
economic affairs" Here again
action as well as policy concerning
protection and promotion of. all
American commercial and agricul-
tural interests" in foreign nations is
initiated - that sounds more like
Kansas City or Madison avenue or
Wall street than Pennsylvania ave-
nue. or Downing street.
And those are only part of mod
ern diplomats duties. There is also
the tariff, trade treaties and agree
ments and International commercial
policy as well, in just one division
of the Office of economic affairs.
In addition, there is a monetary
division, and (believe it or not) la
Dor relations and another separate
unit to deal with-that essential to
the American home (when it gets
on wheels again)-petroleum.
How we have departed from the
naughty aloofness that sneered at
vulgar trade! The spats and the
monocles have been laid aside and
the gentlemen once referred to by
the cynical as ''cooky-pushers" have
gotten right down to the brass tacks
of everyday life, and the activities
shared by Americas millions.
