 Shortly thereafter occurred an- other unfortunate incident. At Yalta it was agreed that both the British and American armies would send troops into Vienna, and would also occupy certain Austrian provinces. But sudden ly the Russians set up a govern ment in Vienna under the old So- cialist leader, Dr. Karl Renner. Also they seized the Vlennese air fields.
 So now. British and American token forces, which expected to fly into Vienna, cannot land. Also no American or British am bassa dors can enter the city un-
 til we recognize the Renner Government.
 Under the Yalta agreement, no government was supposed to Dc set up in liberated countries with. out consultation by the Bis Three. Therefore, the United States and Great Britain are now asked to recognize a government which was established without their knowledge and in violation of an agreement which they thought was. binding Certainly the United States tried to carr, out the Yalta Agreement when it came to stopping on the threshold Of Berlin.
 TROUBLE IN BULGARIA.
 Meanwhile, some unfortunate things also had been happening in Bulgaria. Very little has Dene published on the Bulgarian s!tua ton. bat more Bulgarian leaders have been executed by the Rus sians than in any other Allied occupied country. Probably theJ are all Nazis of the type which would eventually have faced trial for war crimes. Therefore, U. s. officials do not object to this so

Russia is now on the road tc be- coming the most powerful nation in Europe and Asia. and there is nothing We can do to prevent it. Hail billion Chinese, plus one third billion Indians restless u}- der British rule, are certain to grayitate to Russia; also the mid dle- European countries of Czecho- slOVakia. Austria, Poland and the Balkans.
 Tine United States, meanwhile, is bound to become the rallyirg nation for western civilization Great Britain. Latin America France. Holland. the ScandiAa, .ah countries.
 There will be two powerful blocks. The question is: Will they drift into var 10 or 20 years from now? If the tobOg- gan once starts, no power on earth can prevent war. The time to stop it is now. And all ready our relations with Rus sia have reached the low level of diplomatic nOse-thumbing and caustic note writing which augurS ill for the future.
 No peace machinery construct ed at San Francisco can stop this toboggan once it starts. The basic theory of the San Francis -c Con- ference is that big nations shall be free to do what they please. No real machinery is eyen con- tempiated to stop war between big nations except their oWh common sense. And alreadY the big nations at San Francisco have shown themselves unable to settle their own disputes.
 With this alarming situation in mind this cOlumnist prOpOs- es 10 diagnose the entire tangi"d skein of our Russian relations. Some of what follows will be considered very critical Of Rus sia. Soric may be considered critical of the United States. It is suggested that no conclusions be drawn until both sides are presented.
 KEEP OUT OF BERLIN
 Relations with Russia began their nose-dive just few days before President Roosevelt died when Stain sent his note accus ing us of a deal With the Ger mans in order that we night ge+ to Berlin ahead of the Rcd Army.
 Of course there was Eo dcai. But there had been a conference of American and German officers in Switzerland to arrange for an armistice in Italy, and the man ner in which the Germans were surrcnGering wholesale to the Americans in the west, while fighting to the last ditch against the Russians in the east, nadc the Russian generals suspicious.
 The Russians are a suspici- Ous people anyway, and long years of isolation have not made them less so. Also. in view of the fact that 100000 Germans nave already been shipped off to Russia by the Red Army, it is easy to see why the German army hastened to surrender on one front, while fighting fierce ly on the other.
 But. to allay Russian suspicious the American Army stoppel it's advance on the Ri.er Elbe, care fully kept out of Berlin

The Americal AmnaS- sador ot Czechoslovakia, Laurence Steinhardt. was all set to sc back to CZechoslovakia with the invad' ing Russian armies. So a}so was British diplomatic nilsson.

MERELY THE EXPECTED DOJDRJ1MS

4l4S bONoll HlGdIl JIldI IiIt SOll- ference has begged down and will fail The doldrums of actual con- position were predicted way in ad- vance and here they are. For an- other week or so the actual news coming out of San Francisco won't be broadcast or printed. because nobody can be expected to work up any enthusiasm over proposed 99- word amendments to Charter XII Section c reading:
 But no enforcement action should be taken under regional ar engagements or by regional agencies without the authorization of the Security Council with the exception Of measures against enemy states in this war provided for pursuant to Chapter XII paragraph or in re- gional arrangements direc Q d against renewal of aggressive policy on the part of such states until such time as the organization may by consent of the government col- cerned be charged with the feSprn- S.olllty for preventing furtGCr ag- greSSion by state now at war with the Ur.ted Nations"
 To the people at home whose role is merely to pray for peace ard 10 the outsiders and observers he at San Francisco it may appear that the business of writing this Charter has been made unnecessarily com pl!cated, When it was found that the Executive Committee, the Steer ing Committee, the four principal commissions and their 12 sub con- mlttees trying to write the Charter in sections were not making much progress something new was added "a Co-ordinating Committee.
 This 18th committee, like the 18th hole, is now something to watch. Committees of 49 members being too unWieldly to get anything done with dispatch or hnality, the size of the Co-ordinating Commit tee has, been Kept at l4 members and 1t is made up of the deputies 10 the IA members of the Executive Committee.
 PASVOLSKY IS CHAIRMAN
 As Secretary Of State Edward R Stettinius is U. S. member of the Executive Committee, his deputy, Leo PasVolsky of the State Depart ment, is U. s. member and chair man of the Co-ordinating Commit tee, the technical expert who is sup posed to know the most about the Dumbarton Oaks proposals as amended is the man who will sit on the Co-ordinating Committee.
 In short this Co-ordinating Com mittee is apparently going to do the work at San Francisco - the edit ing and the final drafting to re- move the bugs and the inconsistent c!eS and make the United Nations Charter a practical document.
 Work will of course be subject to approval of the Executive Commit tee and the full Conference in plenary session. Work of the Co., ordinating Committee will also be subject to advice from a sub-com- mittee Of jurists. They're the boys to look out for. If they start clut- tering up this noble document with lot of sentences Ike that quoted above this thing may turn out to be a botched job.

There have of course been some nice fights about Poland and the Argentine and lot of smoke has come out of the pots on free dom for Korea, Yugoslavia.
