BEHIND THE NEWS
Paul Mallon

Who is TO WELD this great pro-
posed new power of destruction,
unsuggested in the world up to
now? The security council will
have IL members and any seven
of these can operate it on most
matters but on war-making
questions any large nation (Big
Five) now has a veto right TO
prevent action by its single OBJ
lection.
GO THE new theory OF a bell
- ligerent peace runs right into
the much discussed veto issue.
and, thus, the size and sharpness
of the sensational new teeth de-
pend upon what is done finally
about the veto and the whole
voting setup on the council.
Already the formula for peace
is defective in giving five ma
ton a veto right, whereas only
three can really enforce world
peace.
Only the United States, Brit
ain and Russia actually can keep
the peace because they have the
only important military forces.
yet France and China share veto
rights.
But will this defect not be
widened and the fault made lu-
dicrous if all veto is abandoned
and the armies of the big nations
can be moved around as pawns
in the hands of the little ma
tions?
What are we getting into
here? The we'll grows deeper
and darker.

FAIR ENOUGH

York had a terrible fuss among
themselves and the American
party line changed back 10 old
revolutionary MarNism and the
class struggle. The formula for
that line calls for riots in the
streets, the disruption Of the
family, promiscuity divorce by
postcard and abortion.

decade of the revolution. there
was tremendous ferment" and
"all kinds of experiments were

ism and general immortality.

tionary for miStiming her APP

maybe her husband. Holly

marriage being such a beautiful

They would never forgive me
for believing any evil things

THE typical comment in Washing
= ton and throughout the nation re-
garding the appointment of Thomas
Campbell Clark of Texas as attorney
general reflects the opinion that she
is the best man the President could
have picked"
This is fine tribute to Mr.. Clark,
and to President Truman as well.
The putting of good men in the
right places in government is indis-
pensable to good government, and
thus basic rule which should al
ways be followed by those having the
power of appointment in a democ-
racy.
Unfortunately, it is a rule too
often observed in the breach and too
rarely in performance.
Probably this is the reason the
Presidents appointment of Mr..
Clark has been accounted "sur.
prise" IN some quarters.
poLITICAL speculation had CEN
i tered about many names, once it
became known a change in the lead
ership of the department of Justice
was contemplated, but there was
scarcely any mention of Tom Clark.
But apparently President Tru-
man was not playing politics. F."
His quest for "the best man he
could pick" went no farther than
the justice department itself, where
Mr.. Clark had been assistant u. S.
attorney general for eight years and
had distinguished himself in a man
ner to impress many people having
a greater interest in good govern
ment than in smart politics.
AS Mr.. Truman had an opportu-
nifty to learn, during the years he
headed the Senate committee
charged with investigation of war

DOPE Plus XII delivered a world
= broadcast on Saint Eugene's Day
in which he spoke gravely and with
great candor about the kind of peace
the civilized world WANTS and the
utterly different and infinitely worse
kind of peace that now prevails in
many nations.
Speaking with plain reference to
the plight of Poland, and of other
nations supposedly liberated by
Soviet Russia but now made subject
to Russian will and rule, the Pope
expressed the fear that instead of
finding peace much of the world
particularly the European worlds
falling victim to "a tyranny no less
despotic than those for whose over
throw men planned. l."
Taking cognizance of the United
Nations conference in San Francisco,
which is seeking a charter for perma-
nent world peace and which "the
whole of mankind follows" the Pope
observed:
"What bitter disiliusionment it
u0ould be if it were to fail, if so many
years of suffering and self-sacrifice
tDere to be made in Uain by per-
ritting again to preUail the spirit of
oppression from which the world
hoped to see itself at last freed once
and for all."
WELL might the poor world, as
w the Pope said, then apply to
itself these words of Christ:
"Its neuO state is become Worse
than that from rDhich is has ruith
such labor e1tricated itself"
Against the seeking for peace at
San Francisco and against the hopes
of mankind which attend that con-
ference, Pope Plus admonished, must
be weighed the new form and degree
of tyranny which Russia has already
imposed upon many helpless nations
and of which many other nations
today stand in fear.
There is a terrible contrast, in
deed rising conflict, between the
peaceful hopes and opportunities at

fttt WOutd like TO snare
my pcrpleXity over the edi-
torial policy of Golfers Weekly
in SpubliShing articles which
seem to me to be unnecessarily
kind to communism and Com
muniSts. why just help your
self, because there is plenty on
hand and it isn't rationed.
AS these dispatches pointed
out not long ago, Golfers.
which is a Park Avenue publi-
cation with the usual chubby
furniture in its foyer for anxious
authors, illustrators and car
toonists to sit upon while watt
ing their turn TO see somebody,
printed one story by Ella VIM
ter and another by Lillian He'll
man. a couple of seasoned old
party-liners, about their obSer-
vations on a recent trip TO Rus
sia, and, as a regular thing, 1t
was here observed. Golfers
runs articles by a fellow on the
staff named Kyle Crichton who
uses the name of Robert For
Sythe when he writes for the
New Masses, which is straight
Communist publication.
IN THIS connection it was
L noted that, although Golfers
blew a few editorial kisses at
these durable old babes by way
of introducing them to the GUS
toners, 1t said nothing at all TO
call attention TO their politics.
This l took to be a a-rather Seri-
Gus oversight because, after all,
if a writer is pro-Communist
then he or she might be inclined
TO give communism and the
Russian system the best of
things. And the result might be
misleading to the American con-
sumner.
On that occasion I went 10
the index of the Dies Commit
tees records and gave you the
number of citations of each of
these three and the only reaC-
tion from Golfers was not a
disagreement with my warning
and argument but a note CATCH
ing me in a mistake that 1
should not have made and here
do correct.
I said Bill Chenery was the
editor of Golfers, which was a
dumb error because Bill has
been made publisher and the
editor is Henry La CoSsitt, as
1 should have noted on the
mast head.
MY FURTHER interest has
1'l been aroused by some addi-
tional items for ! now see that
Crichton is no longer writing
harmless little nonsense about
movie actresses in which there
could be no chance 10 serve the
cause but lately did one called
the "GI Bill of Complaints
That would seem TO be a change
of policy because one of their
executives told me a year ago
that they used Crichton, as they
call him. only on frivolous stuff
and that policy seemed TO me
to recognize the possibility that
the guy could get his two per-
sonalities confused if assigned
TO do a heavy piece and give us
a Forsythe product on a con-
troverslal issue.

the justice department who could al.
ways be relied upon for capable
assistance to Congress-and it was
To mClark.
Moreover, when he was con-
fronted with the necessity of ap-
point ing new attorney general,
Mr.. Truman did not fail to remem-
Der that it was Assistant Attorney
General Tom Clark who was chief
civilian adviser to Gen. John Dewitt
during the critical and perilous
weeks of the japanese evacuation on
the Pacific Coast-and that Clark's
judicious handling of the tangled
legal problems attending that vital
enterprise contributed materially to
the safeguards the Pacific Coast &C.
quired early in the war as result of
the evacuation
UNDOUBTEDLY, President Tru-
~ man could have picked better
politician for the cabinet than Tom
Clark-or at least one better known
and more satisfactory to the profes-
sional politicians.
But since his quest was for "the
best man for the job" and the man
having that qualification was already
veteran in the justice department,
the President saw no reason to look
further.
Mr.. Clark is to be congratulated
for his appointment to the post in
the Presidents cabinet he is so thor.
oughly qualified to fill with distinc-
tion to himself and credit to the
country.

John W. Hanes Warns:
Reds Control of Mark
Leaves U.S.. Holding Bag

Why wasn't the amount of currency Russia
can float CONTROLLED"
One of the primary interests OF American
occupation forces in Germany, Mr. Hanes
pointed out is the stabilization of the economy
there.
"But after the German currency has been
ruinously inflated the British and the United
States will have to put up to gain stabilization
and from the talks now going on in Washing
ton we. and we alone, will be left holding the
bag" he declared.
I'VE had better look forward to the time
when America is going to have to clean up the
mess"
Mr.. Hanes apparently referred to
the growing realization in this country
that Britain WiH haUs a difficult time
controlling her opn economy, let alone
trying to bolster that of another nation.
Regarded as one of the country's outstand-
ing financial experts Mr.. Hanes considered the
following statement seriously before he uttered
j, Then he said:
.My feeling is that we can stay in Ger
many and do good job. We should stay there
and do a good job. But. if we are going to
stay and end i'm a debacle, l think we should
get out
There is no one today who can estimate the
billions of marks which have been foatcd in
the Reich Mr.. Hanes said. This stems from
the evil, he added, of two parties printing
money with neither one knowing what the
other is printing.
Mr.. Hanes recalled the German infationary
era after World War when German had TO
have a "basketful' of marks to buy one egg.
Now, Germany appears to be headed in the
same direction, only this time the |. ).

marks for l.. S. dollars is palliative and

treasury John w. Hanes warned today.
"Such move is comparable to attempting
to bail out lake with "A fork Mr.. Hanes
said. 1T does not halt the Russians from
initiating the German mark to their hearts

marks now rolling from Soviet printing presses

1t was Mr. Hanes who when he returned
from Europe last week with Richard K. Berlin.
president of the Hearst Corp exposed the
fact that the Americans had turned over to
the Russians. the plates from which the
occupation marks are being printed.
At the time he parned that United
States citizens stand to be bied of
unestinated billions because of the
"stupidity" in surrendering the plates
to the Reds, Who have fatty refused to
exchange the marks for their oWn cur
rency, While America trades for them at
the rate of 10 to 81.
AS a result of Mr. Hanes disclosures, the

American soldiers from exchanging the Soviet
printed marks for American dollars.
