The international involvement
of displaced Jewish populations
in Europe are daily becoming
more obvious.
In South America, Ecuador has
instructed its counsuls overseas
to issue visas to all Jews of good
character. Mexico has authorized
the admission of 400 Jews from
Hungary as war refugees. A trick
lie of Jewish refugees is being adj
mitted to Canada, 500 during the
past six months under guarantee
of Jewish organizations that the
newcomers will not become pub
lie charges.
In France reports indicate that
there are thousands of Jews from
Poland who are ill an destitute,
while those in Belgium's capital
city, Brussels, are estimated 10
number between six and eight
thousand.
In Italy there are some four
to five thousand refugees from
other countries, many of them
Jews, and on the basis of their
own statements to the represen-
tatives of the Intergovernmental
Committee on Refugees, none of
them want to go back to Germany
and few to Austria.
There are displaced Jews by
the hundreds of thousands
throughout Russia, in the Urals,
in the Ukraine as we'll as in Sow
let Asia, and many of them are
in dire need.
Meanwhile, the disorders in
Palestine can only worsen the

situation there and make it in
creasingly unlikely that, in the
immediate future, any large-scale
immigration to that country can
absorb the multitudes who have
now no home.
1t is clear that other places OF
settlement must be found and that
in this process the United States
will have to bear it's part. The
available areas, apart from Pal
estine, are limited in number.
Some have been investigated and
found wanting, like Guiana in
equatorial South America. Others
can accept limited numbers only,
like the Dominican Republic.
South Africa and Australia may
provide homes for small groups
which can be infiltrated into exist
ing communities or settled on a
pioneer basis. The forbidding eli
mate of Madagascar makes that
region something less than the
wonderful place" Sir Clifford
Heathcote Smith, Intergovern-
mental Refugee Committee repre-
sentative, represented it to be.
The few refugees admitted Sin
bond to the free port of Oswego
in New York represent such a
tiny fraction of the number
for whom some haven must be
found, as to indicate that all eff
forts thus far are merely tenta-
tive. That fact is that no one
solution will suffice for the mag
nitude of this problem. Every pos
sibility must be explored and
where hundreds of people are
now being placed, future planning
must envisage the needs of tens
of hundreds of thousands.
In the United States, current
ly, the impulse, both from poll
teal sources and from influnet-
ial and powerful labor groups, is
to limit postwar immigration.
Their contention is that this coun-
try will have quite enough to
do to place the returning millions
of service men and women with
out taking on the problem of
people of foreign origin.
Already numbers of antrim
bills have been intro
duced in Congress. One check
on this movement has been the
fact that, as the Department of
Justice has pointed out, our exist
ing quotas have, not even nearly
been filled. Such legislation might
operate against us in the sphere
of international cooperation and
friendship. But the pressure be-
hind it is strong and certainly no
generous relaxation of the bar
riers against large-scale immigra-
ton is to be expected. Unfor-
tunately, unless the United States
sets an example for the world in
this field, it loses its right to
preach to other nations.

of the Senate battle against con- firmation of the new millionaire battery of State Department exc cutives, with the two-fisted Senator from Florida leading the fight.
 Chief battler against him on the Senate floor and in private com mittee sessions was Texas miner statesman Tom Connally, who chafed, fumed, sputtered at the de- lay in confirmation, considered ii a personal insult if any Senator voted against him. In the Senate Foreign Relations Committee room he had bawled out Senator Pepper and Pepper in turn had put the Texas Solon neatly and emphati- cally in his place.
 So when the two Senators sat down at dinner, imagine their sur prise when they found themselves on either side of their hostess, Mrs Mclean. Nothing but her and the Hope Diamond glittering around her neck was in between.
 Then as. Senator Pepper looked across the table, he saw just three seats away the man whom he was blocking as Assistant Secretary oi State-Will Clayton Pepper had insisted on a thorough examination into the operations Of the big cotton king, had helped probe his sales to Japan and Germany claimed that his business back ground did not make him 8 proper person to represent the American people in handling delicate dlplo- macy involving the future peace

NO MORE SHUTTLE BOMBINGS
 One thing which has worried
 war chiefs a lot is Russia's suspen-
 sion cf shuttle bombing. This sys- tenn of giving bases to U. s. planes which fly over Germany and Po-
 land was worked out after lot of diplomatic persuasion and seemed to be going very well, when suddenly it was stopped. The Rus sians simply ann, unced that U. s. planes couldn't land in Russia any more.
 Not much has been said about this, but there was deep disap-
 pointment in high circles, because shuttle bombing gave us a chance to knock out Hltlers war industry which he had moved into Poland f to escape bombing raids from Eng land Unless planes can land in Russia, it will be difficult to do much flying over Poland from our

 One reason why the Germans were able to turn up with so many supplies in the big Belgian counter offensive is believed to be the moving of these factories back into Poland out of bombing range. In fact, the counter-offensive has brought the whole question to the front again.
 The Russians, for years suspicious of the capitalistic world, don't give any reasons for their shutdown. They also didn't give any real reason for refusal to attend the Chicago Air Conference. But con- stantly they are now following a policy of refusing to permit Allied planes to fly over Russian terri tory,

other hand, the spotheosis of May
Day occurred in Russia after the
Bolshevik Revolution. Each year
Moscow was the scene of mammoth
demonstrations emphasizing the
World Revolution and the Dictator
ship of the Proletariat. The whole
city was a sea of flaming red, and
revolutionary heroes of all ages
were commemorated, from Marx
and Engels to the Paris Commu-
nards, the Terrorists of 1893, and
even clear back to Spartacus, the
gladiator rebel against Ancient
Rome.
Today, Moscow is again in festal
garb, bedecked in conventional red
and thunderous with artillery
salvoes and political big-gun ora

force this year is undoubtedly pride

German invasion and the proven

Love Powder

Japan, not doing so we'll in the
war, has at last thought up a secret
weapon to make war unnecessary.
According to reports, Jap burglars
disguised as archeologists, or vice
versa, are engaged in race against
time on frantic raid on Java's
Temple of a Million Buddhas for
ashes to be sent to Japan. Some
where in the temple are the re-
mains of Buddha himself, and by
their belief, once these get to Tokyo
the war is as good as won, for who
ever possesses all that Is mortal of
the god will become automatically
beloved. Up to now, rather for
tunately, one cannot help thinking,
the correct cinders have not been
located, and there Is no immediate
danger of the world falling in love
with Japan. Certainly that has not
happened to our naval headquarters
in the Pacific; ask TOTO, he knows.
However, to play absolutely safe,
plans are being prepared by the
United Nations to take over Java
before it is too late. They want
no more dust thrown in their eyes
by Japan. Meanwhile the Jap feet
will have to manage as best it can
by taking runout powder.

Ihough informal and exploratory
IN character, the talks Just con-
cluded in London between high
BRUSH officials and Undersecretary
StettlnluS and his staff have un-
queStlonably clarified many issues
which only a short time ago seemed
10 be creating confusion of OPERA
tlon between our own diplomacy and
brltaln's. This is all to the good
an essential preliminary to the
formulation of a definite program
OF Allied action to cope with the
great complex of political problems
now taking shape in the world.
In the words of the Joint British
American communique on the sub
lect, the talks, extending over a
period OF three weeks, covered i'm
portant current questions and Others
that will become of Importance as
hoStllitles draw to a close" Also
discussed were long range postwar
questions, and in all fields "a yerv
large measure of common ground"
was established, thus greatly easing
the task of co-ordinating policies"
AS is typical of such diplomatic an
nouncementS, the communioue is
couched in generalized language,
but it leaves little room for doubt
that the discussions have led to en-
couraging concrete results. At the
very least, as regards the numerous
problems pressing for Allied action
in Europe, they have made clearer
to Britain where we stand and
clearer to us where Britain stands.
The important current questions"
include Allied policy toward neutral
and nonbelligerent powers, the
status of Italy, the line of action
to be followed in dealing with the
Polish problem and the terms to be
imposed on such countries as Fin
land and Romania when and II they
