THEY. SAID LAST
WEEK:
Secretary of State Edward r.
Stettinius, r.:

Let us keep the San Francis
co Conference in its proper per-
spective. 1t is not peace confer
encc. 1t will not deal with boun-
daries or reparations or questions
concerned with the disarmament
and control Of Germany and ia
pan. It's purpose is to prepare a
charter OF world organization
to preserve the peace in the fu-
ture which can be submitted to
the member nations for adoption.
1t will be difficult task. a task
as difficult as the writing of our
own Constitution in 1877, for the
conference at San Francisco, like
the convention in Philadelphia,
will be pioneering in a new way.
The charter will inevitably be the
! product OF series Of adjust
ments, just as our own Constitu-
!; ton was the product of series
of compromises between the
North ard the South, and large
states ana small, and merchant
interests and agrarian interests.
! And without these adjustments
OF interest and viewpoint our con-
stitution could not have been
written. Nor could it have been
ratified by the thirteen original
States
William Green, president of the
American Federation of La
Dor. speaking over a NBc
network:
| The American people must
keep pace at home with the swift
march Of our armed forces on
Berlin. Victory in Europe is now
not only certain but imminent.
When it comes we must be pre-.
pared ior it and we must be ready
! to deal as effectively with the
problem of peace as we have with
the tremendous task. or winning
the war. American labor and MAN
agement have now taken a far
reaching step in that direction.
After months of negotiation they
have drafted and agreed upon a
charter of Acknowledgements, CO.
Operation which is unexampleI
in the history of our country.
One of, our immediate objectves
in this charter is to reduce in
dustrial conflicts to minimum.
We may not be able TO achieve
| perfection or eliminate strikes
and .ockouts altogether, because
we are living in ali imperfect
world. But we can prevent man.
of them through mediation and
arbitration OF disputes and by re-
placing the strife and bitterness
which have caracterized industri-
al relations for too many years
with friendly understanding and
cooperation. Perhaps this cannot
be accomplished overnight. But
it never will be accomplished un-
less start is made. We have now
made that start and intend to
keep going forward with the
help and the support OF the Ame-
rican people,

people at that time, Just as they are
fighting Germany now"
1t was Just a quarter OF a century
ago that Hitler began drafting the
Nazi program, in prison cell, to
overthrow the German republic,
which the Allies had sanctioned in
the hope of keeping world peace.
IF the Germany Of 1920 had had
only fraction of the resistance of
the Germany of today it would never
have collapsed" he asserted.
The Nazi assumption of power
after a 13-year fight, Hitler de-
clared, "was the result Of . tough,
fanatical battle which often seemed
completely hopeless"
Refers to Raid.
'T recently read in British papers
that the Allies intend to destroy my
Berghof (Hitler's mountain house), )"
he said. II almost regret that this
did not happen 50 far, since my per-
sonal property Is Of no greater value
than that Of other Germans.
"I shall be happy-as far as this
is possible for anybody-to bear all
that others have to bear.
"The only thing I should not be
able to bear would be the weakness
Of my nation.
II predict the final victory of the
German race"
"The life which Is left to us should
serve only one task, namely to make
up for all the wrongs done by the
international Jewish criminals and
their henchmen to our nation" the
statement said.
at must be our unshakable will
to think of Germany alone until
our last breath. Man after man,
woman after woman, in towns and
in the country, we shall live only for
the task to liberate our nation from
this distress, to reconstruct Ger
manys culture"

liberated capttves OF Los BanoG
were In stronger condition than
were their fellow sufferers In Santo
Tomas prison camp.
OF their number, many Of them
in advanced years were carried to
freedom on litters.
Yesterdays dramatic raid brought
the total Of men, women and chill
dren rescued this month to approx
imately 7,700.
This great release may be the last,
although American forces may come
across other civilian and war pris-
oners as they penetrate deeper into
Luzon.
Truly, as Gen. Macarthur said,
God was ceftainly with us today.
Macarthur Grateful.
Nothing could be more satisfying
to soldiers heart than this rescue.
/ am deeply grateful" Gen. Mac
Arthur said In = special statement
issued after the rescue was an
nounced.
The daring exploit matched the
drama OF the rescue by American
Rangers and Filipino guerrillas Of
the men of Bataan. Corregidor and
Singapore from the Cabanatuan
Prison Camp, ana the liberation Of
internees from Santo Tomas Uni
versity and Bilibid Prison.
Elements Of the 11th Division
crossed Laguna de Bay the night
before the morning of the attack
while the paratroopers were taking
off from Nichols Field in Manila.
Movements Of the guerrillas into
the area adjacent to Los Banos
were so skillfully conducted they
went undetected by the jungle-sen-
sitive Japanese until the moment
of the strike.
The complicated operation went
of SO smoothly that the first load
Of 1000 men, women and children
reached safety within four hours
Of the moment the first paratroop-
ers dropped to overpower the un-
suspecting guards.
Before they were completely out
OF danger, however, the internees
survived two short, sharp clashes
with snipers and patrols from the
5000 Japanese soldiers&stimated by
intelligence officers as being within
striking distance of the operation.
Internees Look Thin.
Some of the internees were thin,
many were pale, but generally they
looked better than the Santo Tomas
internees because the japanese had
been enforcing food restrictions at
Los Banos only since October.
Thereafter they subsisted for the
most part on basic diet of few
mouthfuls Of unhusked rice daily.
The Los Banos internment camp
is on the southern end of Laguna de
Bay, large lake south of Manila,
down the western shores of which
American infantrymen have been
driving for days. 1t nestles at the
foot of Makiling Volcano.
The camp was established by the
japanese in May, 1943. The first
Americans imprisoned there were 800
men and 13 American Navy nurses
from the Canacao Hospital near
Cavite.
Later other men, women and chill
dren were transferred to Los Banos
until the population grew to 2,146.

Government Expected
To ReIinquish Control
OF 10 Mines Today
By. the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
With new mine wage negotiations
starting next week, the Government
prepared today to turn 10 seized
bituminous mines back to their
owners.
A spokesman declared the action,
however, will be without any direct
bearing on the pay negotiations
John l.. Lewis. president of the
United Mine Workers, begins next
Thursday with mine operators.
Charles F. Potter, deputy solid
fuels administrator, said the 10
mines under seizure for five months
in Western Pennsylvania, Kentucky
and West Virginia would be returned
to their operators momentarily. The
formal notices may be issued later
in the day.
Pact Expires March 81.
UMW's Policy Committee of prin-
cial union leaders meets here Mon
day to determine new demands for
Mr.. Lewis to present to operators
in negotiating for a new contract.
The present pay agreement expires
March 81.
Mr.. Potter declared return of the
mines should not be interpreted
as any conciliatory gesture on the
part of the Government. Only re-
moval of a strike threat enabled
the Government to relinquish con-
troll now, he explained.
John McAlpine, president Of the
United Clerical, Technical and Su-
pervisory Employees, a unit in UMWs
District so, notified Fuels Admins
traitor Ickes he was withdrawing
the threat of strike made last
September, Mr.. Potter said.
Sought Bargaining Powers.
At that time Mr.. McAlpine was
trying to get operators to recognize
| his group as bargaining agent for
foremen and other mine supervisory
employees.
Mr.. Potter said Mr.. McAlpine's
move was prompted by a published
report that Mr.. Lewis, so long as
| the mines were Government oper-
ated, might be subject to a Jail pen
atty under the War Disputes Act II
a strike should develop over failure
to negotiate contract in time.
Return of the mines leaves the
Government in control of one BIZ
luminous mine in Virginia, under
a mutual agreement to pursue a
Supreme Court test of the Gov
ernment's seizure power. In addi-
ton, the Government will continue
to operate several Western Penn
sylvania anthracite mines.
