BY SIGRID ARNE

SAN FRANCISCO, June so.-R
The new world charter carries
with it provisions which its au-
thors believe will make the United
Nations stronger than the old
League of Nations in three impor-
tant ways.
It was written in 63 days, often
heavy with anxiety, in meetings
where m IN sometimes angrily
questioned each others motives.
But now it is en- route home,
in the brief cases of men from
so nations, to seek the blessings
and notifications of as many par
liaments. And the 800 delegates
and advisers who put it together
start home with the satisfied feel
ing that the paper they have writ
ten will take the world one more
safe step toward the universal
goal: peace secure for many
years, and hopefully, peace for
ever.
The new strength of the United
Nations lies first in their agree
ment here to pledge military
forces which can be called up i'm
mediately a new war-maker starts
to march. The old league only
pledged cooperation, but it never
knew VIII a troops, ships and
planes it could lay its hands on.
And while it scratched around ia
pan took Manchuria, Italy took
Ethiopia, and so on down the
dreary decade of the sos.
The Uni te d Nations second
strength lies in a provision which
puts the full responsibility for
keeping the peace, actually, into
the hands of just five nations, the
Big Five" the United States. the
United Kingdom, Russia, China
and France.
In the old league Is nations had
to vote together, and the result
was time-wasting talk. This mar
rowing down of the responsibility
precipitated the most acrimonious
battle at San Francisco, but the
Big Five leaders stuck stubbornly
to their plea that the United Ma
tons must be ready for the sort
of swift acton the policeman on
the beat can take when he spots
a law violator.''
The third new strength lies in
provisions which will permit the
so nations to go away back of the
actual shooting to prevent war, in
to all the economic, social, educa-
tional, humanitarian and health
conditions which can make a peo-
pie unhappy enough to fight.
These matters will be talked
over in an economic and social
council of 10 nations which will
work with all the rest of the so,
and with the special Internal: onal
agencies set up to coordinate such
activities as food, money, relief,
and reconstruction.
The old league had no such pro-
visions; it entirely ignored the
fact that seeds of war lie in eco
nomic and social ills.
The actual machinery of the
United Nations will not be very
different from the old league.
There VIII be six working divisions
to split up responsibilities.
They are:
l. The world assembly. All so
nations will sit in it, each with
one vote. Here they can talk about
anything that affects the peace,
Z; whether it's famine, or some new
Hitler modelling troops. The as
sembly can ask for reports from
the other divisions, and it can pass
on its ideas to the smaller, and
important security council.

with the Big Five holding perma-
neot seats, and the other six seats

year terms. This is the group that

Lend-Lease As Weapon
BY ARTHUR KROCK

WASHINGTON, June 30.-The information
given to the House Appropriations Committee
by Leo T. Crowley chief of the Foreign Eco
onic Administration, that on the recon-
mendation of the Presidents highest mill
tary advisers" we are still supplying lend
lease to Russia, seemed to be received here
with the greatest satisfaction today when the
committee made it public.
When Mr.. Crowley, some time ago, an
nounced that lend-lease to Russia in Europe
had been terminated except for supplies be-
ing loaded or route, there was some col.
Germ expressed lest this action might have q
harmful effect on Russia's military attitude
in the Far East that was immobilizing many
Japanese divisions. But what the FEA admin
istrator told the committee revealed that lend
lease is still being employed to maintain this
subtracting effect on japanese combat forces.
The United States is supplying Russia with
certain lend-lease materials, said Mr.. Crow
ley, but combining the area to Siberia where
Soviet and Japanese troops keep watch on
each other. Speaking more candidly on this
subject than any high Government officer has
before, and thus totally rejecting a request
from the Office of Censorship in April against
speculation as to Russia's future intentions
toward Japan Mr.. Crowley said:
The possibility of Russia's entry into the
war against Japan acts to pin down in north
ern Manchuria large numbers of Japanese
troops which might otherwise be diverted
against :. Allied forces in the Asiatic thea.
ire.
To keep this situation In status quo, or bet
ter, the President and his military leaders
directed the FEA to make limited use of lend
lease in Siberia, and hence more directly as
high strategic weapon than on any previous
occasion. In addition to certain military sup
plies for the Soviet Army on the Manchurian
border, we sending railroad equipment,
trucks, signal materiel and some food The
House committee has approved the strategy
by voting the money required. And Mr.. Crow
ley once again has acted on his own policy
that "FEA can't ask Congress for money I'M
less we explain what it's for and lend-lease
appropriations shan't be used outside the limi-
tations set by Congress-"

THE POLICY'S HISTORY

whenever, MF crowley told Ine commune,
the military leaders on whose advice the ST.
berian lend-lease policy is being pursued de-
eide it should be ended, and the President
agrees, FEA will discontinue the shipments.
This was q yelled but perfectly clear refer
ence, so far as the House committee is con-
cerned, to possible events in the Far East on
which there has been great Speculation
ever since Russia denounced its neutrality
treaty with Japan.
The history of this highly intelligent use Of
lend-lease begins in a period after the Yalta
conference and before We Day. FEA, the
military leaders Gncluding the President
chief of staff, Admiral Leahy) and the State
Department began working out what is called
Annex of lend-lease under the supervision
of President Roosevelt. Ambassador Harri-
m n was recalled from Moscow to discuss
the proposal of the military leaders; it was
approved in conference here with Mr.. Roose-
welt (Mr. Truman also concurring after he
succeeded to the Presidency) and the sup
plies have been going continuously to the Rus
sian forces in Europe.
When the moment for Mr. Crowley's ap-
pearance before the committee drew near,
and he once more stated his personal policy
of dealing with Congress ("don't ask for NOR
ey unless you explain what it is for'), the
statement which he made to the committee
on Siberian lend-lease was drawn up. 1t was
submitted to the President Admiral Leahy.
the Chiefs of Staff and Under-Secretary of
State Grew. approved by them and then made
by Mr. Crowley to the committee with re-
freshing and effective candor While the re.
mainder of his committee testimony was in
teresting and important nothing was so strik-
ing this revelation of combined military
and diplomatic policy based on lend-lease
EFFECTS OF THE POLICY
The effects of the strategy are manifold
By sending these supplies to the Siberian
army we are taking the strain off the Soviet
industrial machine and its manpower at a
time when all Russian resources are needed
the former Reich. Yet Mr.. Crowley, as a
stroke of deliberate policy, has given public
notice that the United States will continue to
do this only so long as the President and
the military leaders think it serves our in
terest in the war with Japan. At the same
time are doing what we can to assure
that the japanese divisions in Manchuria will
remain immobilized instead of being employ
ed against our forces. And we are giving
public, though oblique, notice to Japan that
we are making the task of the Russian gar.
rlson easier IN Siberia for what we consider
good immediate reasons and possibly better
ones hereafter.
The direct assistance to the Soviet Govern.
ment is great, the indirect benefit to the Unit.
ed States is deemed sufficient by those in a
position to evaluate this, and the nervous ten
sion OF the Japanese Government is certain
| to be increased by knowledge of the policy
and by the open manner in which, with full
Presidential approval, Mr. Crowley has stated
lt-flrst to the House committee and now to
the world at large New York Times.

A man is hard put to decide where
to start on an intellectual or judicial

course, always run through the list
alphabetically.
In such case, affairs of Susan,
The" becomes the starter, and in
stantly too discouraging a one to
justify continuance of the alpha

Another system that recommends
itself to the man who does not want

That system, however, is even
worse. The point of the pencil came

promising as the others-system is
that of glancing at titles with an in
ternational flavor. There are num-

the last few years, a discovery that
might in a vague way be related to
international good will.
Such an approach to the subject,
however, is no happier than the
others.
The first picture which bears an
international title turns out to be

China Sky which lauded the

should have done, but which had
depressing effect upon the good
will of American audiences toward

BY this time, even the most con-
scientious fellow must have grown

leave it entirely to the academy,s
