EISENHOWER
 GIVES TALK
 T0(0NGRE55
Tells lawmakers, Jurisfs, that Soldiers Believe
 Peace Can Be Met

WASHINGTON, June 18-Gen- eral Dwight D. Eisenhower told the nations lawmakers and jurists to- day that the soldier passionately believes the problems of peace can and must be met"
 To the soldiers mind, the Gem eral declared in an address pre- pared for his appearance before a joint session of Congress and the Supreme Court, the problems of peace can be no more difficult than the one you had to solve more than three years ago, and which, in one battle area, has now been brought to successful conclusion.
 Referring to the Pacific war, General Eisenhower said:
 Speaking for the American men and women I have been so honor ed to command, in our minds and hearts there is no slightest doubt that our peoples spirit of deter imitation, which has buoyed up and driven us forward in Europe, will continue to fire this nation through the ordeals of battle yet to come. Though we dream of return to our loved ones, we are ready, as we have always been, to do our duty to our country, no matter what it may be-"
 Gen. Eisenhower arrived in Wash- ington by transport plane escorted by more than 30 bombers and fighters Hundreds of thousands of persons damned Washington streets to catch a. glimpse of the Supreme Allied Commander on his eight mile victory ride through the capital.
 At the Pentagon Building Ike was welcomed by War Secretary Stimson and spoke to 32,0O0 War Department Workers. When the General arrived at the capitol to address joint session of Congress, he was greeted by laundering cheers from a packed House cham Der.
 After the capitol meeting, Ike was honored at a luncheon given by one thousand Washingtonians.
 A cloudless sky greeted the Gen. eral in Washington. And most of the crowds were in shirtsleeves as the mercury stood at 86 degrees. However, when Ike goes to New York City tomorrow for another big welcome. the weatherman says the crowds will have to bring raincoats, at least in the morning. Showers have been predicted for the morn ing, with clear skies in the after noon in time to allow Ike to enjoy the Polo Grounds baseball game between the Giants and the Boston Braves.

 Trial Sci for June $

ONDON, June Is. William Joyce, the American-born Lord Flaw Flaw" who taunted the British over the German radio, was for mally charged with high treason today in ancient Bow Street Court.

By John M. Hightower

Associated Press Diplomatic News Editor)
 SAN FRANCISCO, June 18.-OGly one issue stands between the United Nations conference and adjourn ment, but that one, raised by Rus sia, may be enough to block the scheduled windup next Saturday.
 Russia is demanding restriction of powers already formally proposed for the General Assembly of the pro- posed world organization to discuss and make recommendations on any matter affecting international rela- ticns. Moscow wants this changed to cover only questions relating to the maintenance of international peace and security"
 Reopening this controversy has stirred anew small nation resistance to Big Power leadership in the writing of United Nations Security Charter
 Foreign Minister Herbert w. Evatt of Australia has let it be known that he is considering re-opening ether issues by starting new fight against the Big Five veto in the World Security Council.
 Secretary of State Stettinius put himself, Evatt and Soviet Ambassa- dor Andrei Gromyko on special committee yesterday to work out a compromise on the Russian demand. Today he had to inform the con- ference executive committee that it had failed to do so. Gromyko, un- der instructions from Moscow, was unable to accept any compromise and could only report back to Mos COW what was offered.
 The weekend brought whirl- wind cleanup of other controver- sies that had been argued out over many days past.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON It. Col. Robert S Alien now on active service with the Army)

WASHINGTON = Harry Truman is facing the same kind of mess which, as Senator, he used to investigate so efficiently.
 The President has told close friends that he dreads the possi- bility of some big war scandal being connected with his administration, and today a situation pregnant with possibilities is. brewing right under his nose in the Surplus War Property Board It isn't Trumans fault; he inherited it. But it may boomerang against him just the same.
 Billions of dollars of surplus war property are to be disposed of-war plants, machine tools, jeeps, air planes, steel mills, aluminium works airplane factories. Not only is there room for graft, but the com panies who get these plums can influence economic history for a decade.
 Not much graft is known-so far But the backstage lobbying for pipelines, synthetic rubber plants high octane gas plants can result in greater scandals through favorit- ism than mere graft.
 Eagle-eyed Senator Joe O'Ma- honey of Wyoming, alert defender of the public interest, has been scrutinizing some of these things Here are some of the backstage de- velopments which he is probing:

Japanese Field Officer 5urrenders with B Men
 Affer Ho|dout On Guam
By RICHARD o. VALLEY

GUAM. June 18.-A Japanese field officer who held remnants of his command together for 10 months until he had become symbol of re- sistance to them, has surrendered with 33 of his men.
 The officer made a formal sur render on a green hillside of this island as elements of Marine bat talion watched, slack -jawed
 Parleys between the officer and Marine Col. Howard N. Stent, War her Springs, Calif., preceded the surrender, which was reported to- day as a fine example of American psychological warfare against hold out Japanese. (Date of the surren- der was not given, but it presumably was sometime this month. Guam was secured" August g, 1944)
 The Japanese officer attended the parleys in an open area which was surrounded carefully by Marine guard, but he brought down his own well-fed appearing troops with him. As he talked, subaltern wip- ed precipitation from his face and another famed off the flies.
 The Japanese said they had plenty of food and water. They appeared fit despite their months in the jungle.
 The first concern of the surrend- ering officer was his voiced query:
 What is the future of Japan after victory?"
 That will depend a whole lot on the type of leadership that men of your intelligence give it. replied Stent.
 Clad in makeshift American ser- vice uniforms, including dungarees and jackets on which were stenciled the names of Marines from whom they had been stolen, the surren- dering troops counted off briskly. Then their commanders, who was described by American officers as alert and intelligent, said:
 T am turning you over to Col. Stent. You will Ee treated well. You are now prisoners of war. It is not a disgraceful state and you are not to regard it as such"
 First reports of the officer-led Japanese group were heard last Numerous efforts had been made to reach him through a truck-mounted loud speaker system and leaflets dropped from an air. plane.
 One day prisoner reported he had sought the Japanese officers permission to surrender and had been told:
 T am thinking of doing the same thing myself"
 Stent followed up a hunch and rigged up sound truck in the area. Just as the Japanese were believed about to give up, young medium sized man, looking bit heavy for his height and blinking in the bright sun, came from the jungle.
 In the ensuing talk, the Japanese admitted his country would not win the war and said he wanted to "sit out the war" in the Guam jungle. He was told that was impossible.
 He left for further deliberation, agreeing to return week later.
 He arrived at the appointed time with retinue of holdout troops who now were looking forward, said American officers, to a Japan in which Bushido does not exist.
 The first request of the Japanese field officers was that they be taught English. Informal classes were or- ganized immediately.
 Surrender of these 34 Japanese on the first populated territory retaken from the enemy in this war was in- terpreted as the end of all enemy activity on Guam.

 BAN OFF BUT
 NO PRIORITY
Mines May Operate After July 1 Only # Have Man.
 power and Equipment

WASHINGTON, June 18.-Gold mines can resume their war-halted operations July 1, if they have the manpower and if their equipment is in working condition.
 The War Production Board, in an- nouncing the lifting of it's two and half-year-old ban on gold mining, emphasized the action would in- clude no priorities for either man. power or new machinery.
 The suspension was ordered into effect late in 1922 to conserve equipment and supplies for mines turning out more essential lead, zinc and copper.
