No Hangover For Byrnes
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Press Staff COrresDOndent

Washington. Jan. 2. (UP)-Fog billoWed around the White House and, if you ask me, inside the nog- gins of the capital correspondents as they trudged through the rain to the executive offices. It was noon New Years day.
 Calling a press conference on the morning after the night before was brutal thing to do, but Jimmy Byrnes apologized handsomely. Having borrowed pale green con- ference room from President Roose- welt to make public his annual re- port on war mobilization and re- conversion, Byrres sat at the end of long mahogany table with eyeglasses glistening and face glowing pink.
 The war mobilization and recon- version director was one Washing tonian who had no hangover. He was sympathetic to those who did His report was nearly half an inch thick and crammed with charts showing how America was produc- ing for war. It was an interesting | and important document and l think it would be well worth your time to turn to the front page ot this paper and read about it.
 Byrnes said he certainly was sorry he had to make ti public on holi- day. The reporters began asking him questions and I got to watching his eyebrows. They are what the act I ing trade calls eloquent eyebrows. They move around and the ends Of 'em curl up or down, accorling to what he's thinking about.
 When he's talking about 4-F ath- letes, for instance, the eyebrows slant down and Byrnes looks sore.
 He said he'd been to a football game where he'd seen some 4-F stalWarts endeaYor to prove they were physically fit, He said if q | footballer had punctured eardrum but could go into huddle and hear the signals of the captain, then he ought to be able to hear the orGers of an army sergeant
 And some of them are color blind" he said. Well. they don't seem to get mixed mp on the color of their sweaters As for those with trick knees, if they don't get tricky on the football field, they probably won't in Verdun,"
 That, Byrnes said, is why he'd suggested that selectiYe service re- examine 4-F athletes for possible army service,
 thought tn sports editors would be on hand to query him at length about his shutting down horse race tracks as Of tomorrow, but there wasn't a peep about his ban on the ponies One reporter did ask him whether he intended to eliminate all professional sports for the dura' ton and he said,
 T have not considerde such ( thing"
 Somebody else brought up ths broadcast of radio oracle Wh0t said the night before that byrnel would shut down the nations nighl clubs as e waste Of menp0weT,

Churchill and Beyin
In Clash Over Plan
To Delay Greek Vote
(Continued From First Page }

delay on the plebiscite would not
be bona fide Interpretation of the
pledges and undertakings we have
given, not only to the government
but to the Greek people"
at is in my view, vain to sup
pose that political peace will come
to that country by the kind of ar
rangement which has been proposed
and which postpones this burning
question" Mr.. Churchill said.
Pledges No Unfriendly Acts.
Resuming the two-day debate on
foreign affairs, Mr.. Bevin pledged
that Britain would not commit any
actions that would be unfriendly
toward any other nation, great or
small.
"If any great power is suspicious
Of Great Britain" Mr.. Bevin con-
tinued, "I invite them to tell me
frankly what their suspicious are,
and I will frankly face them"
Pleading for "above board" tactics
in international affairs, Mr.. Bevin
said nothing can remove suspicion
but the utmost frankneSs as to our
respective policies"
IT cannot see why there should be
any suspecion at ALL" he said, add
ing:
Great Britain will not be afraid,
and will not in any way decline to
have anything it does or wants, or
seeks to promote, discussed in an
open assembly of the United Ma
tions, if necessary"
Mr.. Bevin said he thought no
useful purpose" would be served at
the moment in calling special
meeting of the United Nations to
consider the action suggested by the
Washington declaration on atomic
energy.
The United States, Britain and
Canada proposed at the Washington
meeting to hand over to the United
Nations the task of arranging world
controls for atomic energy, but made
1t plain that the know-how of max
ing atomic bombs would be kept
secret from all other nations until
effective, reciprocal and enforcea-
BILE safeguards acceptable to all ma
tions" are devised.
Mr.. Bevin said there would be
opportunities for the consideration
of the Washington declaration when
the General Assembly of the United
Nations organization meets in Janu-
ary.
In an apparent reference to Rus
sian opposition to the formation of
any Western European bloc, Mr..
BeVin said, suspicion or no sus-
picion, cannot help it if people
have groundless suspicious. We shall
not commit, in any arrangements
that we make, any unfriendly act
toward any other nation, great or
small"
In the next breath he declared
that he could not accept the view
that "all my policy and the policy
of his majesty's government must
be based entirely on the Big Three.
II must try to decide an issue on
the basis of the facts and to do right
because it is right to do right and
not because of my fears of what
might happen" Mr.. Bevin said.
He assured Gen. de Gaulle and the
new French government that 1--WE
are looking forward to working more
closely with them and to carry still
farther that close collaboration
which we enjoyed with the last
French government"
