whether Russian troops would be
withdrawn from Poland.
Formalize Russian Influence.
Observing that the agreements
seemed to formalize a Russian
sphere of inf1uencesin Poland, Bull
garia, Finland, Hungary, Rumania
and Eastern Austria, Senator Taft
said the Big Three understandings
"in effect recognize that the Rus
slams can do as they please with the
puppet Polish government"
1t appears to him, Senator Taft
said, that Premier Stain gets
everything he wishes to obtain and
has not definitely surrendered any
position he has taken in the past"
The transfer to Poland of nearly
fourth of Germany certainly sows
the seed OF future war" Senator
Taft asserted. THE transfer of
millions of Germans to an already
crowded area is at best danger
Gus experiment. I do not believe
Poland will profit by taking over
German. territory almost equal to
its own land.
President Truman, the Ohio Sem
ator said, had assumed to speak
for the United States in settling
many of the most controversial
boundaries and the terms to be i'm
posed on Germany without any con-
sultation with the Senate or the
people of the United States"
Draft Treaties Secretly.
Senator Taft added that there
seemed little need for peace con-
ference since apparently all other
questions are to be settled in secret
by the Council of Foreign Ministers"
scheduled to meet in London by
September. This council will draft
proposed peace treaties for Italy,
Romania, Bulgaria. Hungary and
Finland.
Senator Taft described as vague"
the Big Three statement that their
governments had no doubt that the
Allied press would enjoy full free
dom to report to the world upon
developments in Romania, Bulgaria,
Hungary and Finland" A similar
note was sounded about Poland.
Senator Connally said he was
particularly pleased with the pro-
visions on the disarmament and
demilitarization of Germany, and
that ''it is also wholesome to root
out the distempered Nazi philoso-
ply"
The Texan termed most wise"
the provisions for free and un-
fettered" elections in Poland.
Senator Thomas, Democrat, of
Utah, said he thought the terms
dictated for Germany were in line
with American principles and
ought to encourage the Japanese
to surrender. Senator Pepper,
Democrat, of Florida, called them
sensible" and added he liked the
arrangements for handling prob
lens step by step instead of at
tempting to settle everything in one
grand peace conference"
Senator Vandenberg, Republican,
of Michigan withheld comment as

Moses Building on F Street
Sold for More Than Million

M. S. Goldnamer. real estate in
vestor. has bought the Moses Build
ing on the southwest corner of
Eleventh and F streets NV. at a
price in excess of 100000, his
attorney, James c. Wilkes, an
nounced today.
The red brick structure, eight
stories high in front and 10 in the
rear, was sold by the Union Trust
Co., trustee for the owners. The
General Accounting Office occupies
most of the building. Three stores
occupy the F. street ground floor
and basement.
The sale is reported as one of
the largest downtown property
transaction in recent years. Con-
structed shortly after the turn of
the century, the building was named
after w. B. Moses, department store
owner. 1t was bought as an in
vestment, and no immediate changes
are contemplated, Mr.. Wilkes said.

Ohio, but Senator Ellendler, Demo-
crat, of Louisiana said the agree
ments hold much promise for the
eventual characterization of the
whole of Europe"
While Senator Taft assumed that
the Potsdam agreement to give the
Poles administration of territory
stretching to the Oder River on the
west presupposed their eventual
acquisition of that area, Senator
Connahy said "the adjustment OF
boundaries is not treated in detail
and is left to the final peace
treaties"
This is probably the most prac-
tical way of handling these mat
ters," Senator Connally said.
Senator Taft complained that
there was no provision made for
the supervision of the promised
free elections in Poland and Sen
ator Comally said: cc.I,
These elections should be super
vised by the Joint Control Com
mission to guarantee that they are
universal and free"

Prompt POWs
To Aid Victims
~ the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
FORT GEORGE G. MEADE, Md.
Aug. 3.-Motion pictures of Nazi
atrocities have prompted German
prisoners of war at Fort George G
Meade to raise money for their coun-
try's concentration camp victims.
1t. Col. Glenn w. Tisdale, COM
manding officer of the posts POW
camp, reported that SIC, 900 has been
raised in the campaign which be-
gan last week.
He said that the prisoners asked
permission to stage the drive after
the plan was suggested to them by
their camp spokesman, German
noncommissioned officer.
Col. Tisdale said the prisoners
asked that their donations be sent
to any recognized fund set up for
aiding victims of Nazi atrocities, or.
If no such group existed, the Inter
national Red Cross.
The POW's are contributing money
earned while working at the post.

What the Nations Newspapers
Think Of Big Three Peace Plan

tell us all we wish to know, in view
of the secrecy with which the delib-
erations have been invested.
Freedom Of the press was mockery
at Potsdam. The understanding Isl
Stain was chiefly responsible, so it
may be presumed that the COM
munique has said only what he ap-
proved.
Philadelphia Evening Bulletin:
These are severe terms but Germany
has asked for them " the Reich
has greatly abused power and its
word is worthless. Nemesis has
finally caught up with it for its
lawless greed and treachery.
Philadelphia Inquirer: Chief en-
couragement consists in the
spirit of unity which prevailed
among the heads of governments
which have the primary response
bility for preserving the peace of
the world.
The Nashville Tennessean: Pots
dam appears to have been mainly
post mortem on the late war in
Europe. All in all, the COM
munique reveals that Potsdam at
tempted to dispose of the body of
the conquered and to plan for the
resuscitation of a part of it. A
Germany without claws. with new
spirit and a much smaller girth is
contemplated.
Boston Post: As a matter of COM
mon sense, how could the conference
report declare that Russia intended
to war on Japan? The matter of
declaring war is Russia's right and
if she intends to tackle the Nip
ponese in the future, she could
hardly be expected to advertise it.
After Potsdam, maybe Japan
is due for surprise.
Memphis Commercial Appeal: The
Potsdam Conference drew a stern
but humane design for compelling
the German people to atone for their
crimes against humanity. - Ger
tainly so far as Europe is concerned,
the Potsdam Conference seems to
have mastered most of the points
necessary to the future security of
that continent. -
st. Paul Mimi Dispatch-Sena-
tor Taft, who complains that to
move Polish authority to the line
Of the Oder is to SOW the seeds of
the next war, is living in the past.
He does not comprehend that this
Is literally the new Europe that is
emerging and that the Europe of
the 10th century and the first dec
ades of the present century has
died.
Minneapolis Times - The repre-
sentatives Of the United States,
Great Britain and Russia have

with respect to Germany and have
