MOSCOW:
Sentence Poles

In a case typical of swift Russian
court procedure, IL of the Polish I'M
derground leaders charged with car
rying on subversive activities behind
Red army lines were found guilty
and sentenced to Imprisonment,
with three acquitted Also typical of
the conduct of defendants on trial
in the Soviet, the accused wholly or
partially admitted their guilt and
virtually co-operated in the prosecu-
ton against themselves.
During the brief trial, the defend
ants said that the Polish under
gound had been ordered into hiding
by the government in exile in Lon
don and advised to form military
political organization designed to re-
sist alleged Russian Entertainments
against Polish independence. Charg-
ing the Reds with trying to set up a
communist dominated rule in
Poland, the London regime long has
been at loggerheads with Moscow.
Russia's arrest of the under
ground leaders after allegedly invit-
ing them to discuss political ques-
tons first provoked stir in U. S.
and British circles, with one of the
detectives of Harry Hopkins recent
mission to Moscow being to straight
en- out the tangle.

TRUCK STRIKES:
els Man Vehicles

Thousands of army troops poured
into Chicago by air, vehicle and
train to man idle carriers and
break the back of an extended strike
of members of two trucking unions
dissatisfied with a War Labor board
ruling allowing them a raise of 81. 08
for a 81 hour week. They asked for
a S. raise and a 48-hour week.
Though neither the Independent
Chicago Truck Drivers union nor
the International Brotherhood Of
Teamsters (AFL) officially called a
strike, some 10000 of their $4,000
members were out, with non-strik-
ing drivers afforded police and mill
tary protection on their routes. I'm
der federal law, union officers are
liable for prosecution for calling a
walkout on government managed
industries.
With workers ignoring their lead
ers' pleas to return to their jobs in
the early days of the strike, much
essential war and civilian freight
lay unmoved as the force of some
400 G.I.s and 1900 non-striking
drivers proved inadequate. When
union members persisted in holding
out, 10000 additional G.I.s were or
dered to the city. '"The army will
break the strike. You can't beat
the United States army" said Ellis
T. Longenecker, federal manager for
the struck-bound properties.

RECIPROCAL TRADE:
Pass Ne1v Act

Termed by Pres. Harry S. Tru-
man "of the first order of impor-
lance for the success of my admins
tration," the bill extending the re-
cipocal trade act for three years
and authorizing the chief executive
to cut tariff levels so per cent below
existing levels was passed by both
house and senate.
BY 81 to q vote, the senate sent
the bill to the White House for sig
nature after defeating an effort to
strike the Presidents tariff cutting
authority from the legislation. Be-
cause some duties already have
been slashed so per cent below the
Smoot-Hawley schedules of 1880 I'M
der the previous reciprocal trade
act, total reductions of rs per cent
will now be permissible.
Though the Republican minority
bitterly opposed the bill on the
grounds that it would countenance
flow of cheap goods to the U. S. in
detriment to American producers,
administration forces experienced
little difficulty pushing the measure
through as a step toward interna-
tional economic cooperation.

ALUMINIUM:
Great Industrial Expansion

Expansion of the aluminium indus
try in the U. S. to a capacity one
and one-haf times the prewar pro-
duction of the entire world has given
this country more than 300 major
aluminium plants, survey shows.
In addition to $50 major works,
1000 small aluminium foundries are
scattered throughout the country,
and aluminium plants of one kind or
another can now be found in 80 Of
the 48 states. Five large plants are
producing oxide from which pure
aluminium is made.
The survey also shows that more
than 10000 workers are employed
directly in the aluminium industry
and that during the war the employ
ment of approximately 100000 per-
sons has been related indirectly to
the operations of the industry.
Many new uses for aluminium in
the home, in transportation, on the
farm and in the factory are assured
for the postwar period. Well see
everything from aluminium automo-
biles to aluminium wheelbarroWs.

UNITED NATIONS:
Chart Peace

With final deliberations of the par
ley marked by concessions to the
smaller countries, the United Ma
tons whipped their postwar peace
organization into shape at San Fran
cisco, with major responsibility for
future stability devolving upon the
Big Five the U. S., Britain,
Russia, France and China. The pact
must now be ratified by member
countries.
Right to air a grievance before
the all-powerful security council bull
warked by the Big Five as perma-
nent members, and the privilege to
discuss all matters falling within in
ternational relations, were the two
prerogatives won by the smaller
nations in the closing sessions of
the parley after Russian opposition.
Despite the smaller nations last
minute victories, however, chief
powers Of the postwar peace organ
ization remain in the hands Of the
Big Five, with virtually they alone
able to arbitrate disputes, impose
economic sanctions to bring poten-
tial aggressors in line and call up
the international air, sea and ground
forces to enforce peace. Converse
ly, any of the Big Five could veto
such action.
Creation of the international air,
sea and ground force under a gen.
eral military staff with regional
branches marked the first time in
history that such an organization
had been established.
Although no peace conference was
held at San Francisco, the United
Nations postwar organization pro-
vided for international trusteeships
over conquered enemy territory and
the eventual attainment of self-rule
or independence for so-called Sub
ect'' people. Under the arrange
ments, the U. S. would be permitted
to retain Jap possessions for de-
fensive bases until congress agreed
to turn them over to the peace Or
ganization.
In addition to providing for politi-
cal and military action, an interna-
tional court of justice was set up
for the settlement of legal disputes
among nations, with the security
council empowered to enforce deci-
sions. Special bodies looking toward
the social, as well as economic de-
velopment of nations, also were es-
tablished.

PACIFIC:
Strategic MOUes

Maneuverings by both Chinese
and japanese troops in China COM
manded the shifting spotlight in the
Pacific, with the enemy seeking to
strengthen his position on the
Asiatic mainland against an ex-
pected u. S. invasion.
Fevered Japanese activity in
China continued as Okinawa fell and

kyus and the presence of an impress
sive task fleet in Formosan waters.

self, the enemy's movements
in the territory apparently were
designed to meet the threat of
combined u. S. attack from sea
and Chinese assault on land,
while also consolidating cOmmu-
nication lines along the long
coastal strip under Nipponese
dominance.
Reports from the mainland con-
f1icted with the Chinese playing up
their assault on the big bomber base
at Liuchow previously lost to the
Japs, and the enemy emphasizing
action northeast of Hong Kong
where they claimed to have foiled
the plans of $4,000 Chinese troops to
aid an American landing.
While the Nipponese Unanswered
about in China, u. S. conquest of
Okinawa made their overall position
even more precarious, affording an
excellent operational base for future
aerial, sea or land assaults on either
Japan itself or nearby enemy hold
ings, notably Formosa.
Marked by some of the blood
lest large-scale fighting of the
war, the Okinawa campaign cost
the Japs over $1,000 in dead
alone, with the usual small
smattering of prisoners, who
failed to battle to the end like
the majority. Though over
whelming u. S. air, sea and
ground power doomed the enc
my from the start, the Japs
fought hard from cave-studded
terrain until the fall of the
Shuri line across the island de-
prived them of strong natural
defenses. Of 45,029 u. S. casual
ties, 1929 were killed or miss
ing, and 33,769 wounded.
