Detroit had to come back on Les
Mueller's fine three-hit hurting to
take yesterdays nightcap 5 to 2
and gain the split after the Yam
kees banged out four homers In
taking the opener IA to 5.
Aaron Robinson smacked two
round-trippers and Bud Metheny
and Charley Keller collected one
apiece as the Yanks hammered
four Detroit pitchers for l3 hits
in the first game, pinning the de-

five runs In the first three innings.
Walter Wilson, Bill Pierce and
George Caster followed the former
National Lacquer to the mound for
| Detroit with little more success.
Detroit managed to chase Red Ruff
ling in the fifth by scoring the last
of its fiv- runs but Walt Dubiel
closed the gate with a bangup re-
lief job in which he allowed Just
two hits in the last five frames.
Mueller's fine pitching nearly
went to waste In the nightcap as
the Yanks scored twice in the sec

maintained the 20 edge behind Bill
Zuber's pitching until the seventh.
Roy Cullenbine's second homer OF

tied the score In the seventh and
Detroit sewed 1t up In the eighth.

This Changing World
By Constantine Bro,cn

The speech Premier Stain is expected
to deliver Wednesday is being awaited
by the world with greater eagerness
than any public utterance he has ever
made. November Is big day in
Russian history; it Is the date Of
the Bolshevist revolution.
Tho highest oficials In Washington,
London and other capitals Of the United
Nations are anxious to hear what the
Russian leader has to say. In spite
Of the many personal communications
exchanged with him, they do not know
what he actually has In mind. The per-
sonal communications lead policy-fram-
ers here to believe that he is willing to
bring about better understanding with
his major Allies. The ofiicial actions
of the Russian government since the
London conference appear to belle this
belief.
In the meantime, President Ismet
Inonu OF Turkey is nervous that some
thing might happen between his country
and Russia after November T. when the
nonaggression pact denounced by Mos
COW last May officially ends. In the
hope Of mobilizing public opinion in the
Western World, Inonu proclaimed in a

that I'VE have no debt to pay any one
whatsoever In. territory or In the re-
linquishment Of Turkeys sovereign
rights. We shall live as men Of honor
and so We shall die as men of honor"
Ofhcial Washington quarters regard
this proclamation as rejection of
eventual demands from Moscow for the
surrender OF the Ardahan and Kars areas
in Eastern Turkey and the establish
ment Of Russian naval and air bases in
the Dardanelles, the Marmora Sea and
the Bosphorus
President Inonu, professional SOL
dier, Is not given to speech making.
Hence. his public utterances are rare
and usually without much political sig
nificance.
Last Friday, however, he made an im-
pressive speech which diplomatic OBJ
servers describe as full OF dynamite" ="
He reviewed Turkeys attitude since
the outbreak Of the war, and by dis
closing hitherto unpublished facts
proved convincingly that Turkey has
always been on the side of the Allies.

On the Record
By Dorothy THOMPSON

II the British Prime Minister is
coming to the United States TO ask Mr..
Truman to give the atomic bomb to
the Security Council of UNO, he is
coming In vain. Mr.. Truman can't give
1t, because it is not his to give. The
atomic bombs on hand, the formulas
and equipment for their manufacture
belong to the American people. They
were given us by international science,
which chose to repose this most danger
GUS of discoveries in the western world.
What they have given U.s., developed
with our own wealth, is a sacred trust
for humanity. What they are asking
us to do is to devise means whereby
atomic science will never again be en-
ployed for destruction. What they are
warning US is that If its use is not
abolished. the world faces the posi-
bility that two-thirds Of the human
race may perish. They ask that atomic
science be barred from warfare and
released for creative energy. And that
Is what we should employ all our might
to do.
Giving the atomic bomb to the Sc
curity Council means giving it to five
great powers, none of which has been
willing to accept any restrictions. or
external judgments, even II all others
are unanimous. Each insists on being
q law unto itself. Thus, the idea that
II the war departments of Britain,
France, China, the Soviet Union. and
the United States, all have a nice supply
Of atomic bombs, peace and good will
between us will be that much nearer is
worthy ora meeting of the best minds
Of Believes wards.
Certainly the world has least to fear
from powers with representative govern
ments which cannot make undeclared
wars.
There is something sinister in this
international scramble after the atomic
bomb. The fact that the Soviet Union
did not have it, passed her a wonder
full oppoxtunity for moral leadership
that was to issue call for immediate
international abolition, under interna-
tional control. of atomic weapons, and,
progressively, of v-weapons, bombing

elsewhere in Germany. 1t could be
occupied by a compact, thoroughly
equipped force of American and British
troops and airmen, including motorized
and armored units a couple of air-borne
divisions, groups of bomber, fighter, re-
connaissance and transport planes, and
the necessary service troops. Such a
force, totaling perhaps 100000, could
move rapidly and would be ample to
deal with any conceivable disturbance
which might arise either in the British
or the American zones of Germany.
1t might be organized as a combined
Anglo o-American force under rotating
command, or as two separate forces
living side by side in separate military
reservations. There would be no neces-
sity for any contact at all between the
officers and men of this force and the
German population southward. Ample
leave facilities would be available in
Denmark, among friendly and kindly
people and in an area comparatively
unhurt by the war.
The preservation of public order in
the occupied zones of Germany could
then be handed over to a specially or
ganized gendarmerie, whose personnel
could be drawn by voluntary enlistment
from all the United Nations, though in
practice probably most OF the men
would be from the European neighbors
of Germany.
This force would be stationed in
large units at the more important Ger
man centers. It would be preventive
force, and would not take the place OF
the regular German civil police for
dealing with ordinary crime, trafic con-
troll and the like.
Finally, to assure swift movement
of military reinforcements to any
threatened area, it would be necessary
to keep detachments OF troops to guard
some Of the key airfields This could
be done by system Of rotating special
garrison units drawn from Schleswig-
Holstein. serving say two weeks or
month at time.
This plan, or some plan on similar
principles, is the answer to our frater-
nization problem and to the overall
problem .of policing Germany.

of 1904 BIC. for the Creation The
latest proof of the remote origin Of
surviving modes and customs of life
came last week from Iraq, where DR..
Naji al ASH, director general of an
tiquities for the government of Iran,
announced the discovery of ruins
believed to belong to the days of
Abraham.
A team of archaeologists, DR.. Al
ASH told the New York Times, has
found positive evidence" of the
existence of "a peaceful community
OF farmers, builders and craftsmen"
at Hassuna, about 5000 years before
the start of the Christian era. The
site of the excavation is not far from
that Of Ur of the Chaldees, explored
by Sir Leonard Wooley after the
First World War. It is simpler, not
30 rich in the character of its arti-
facts, but it appears to be very
much older.
One OF the implements unearthed
is sickle of pieces of flint carefully
glued together with bitumen and
still sharp enough to cut corn as
efficiently as when it first was made
eight milleniums ago. DR.. AL ASH
calls it "the oldest instrument in
the world" 1t was a possession of
