THE most important question
i for the nation is whether or
not the Roosevelt structure.
domestic and international, IS
breaking down.
1t has the appearance OF a
house of cards beginning to col
lapse. at this writing.
Not only did James Byrnes.
pillar Of the domestic part of
FDR's house, move out from
under, but his valedictory mes
sage to the Senate on the man.
power draft bill shot the works
there.
Faithful administration sup
porters are now on record as
saying that they were misled
that even the semi-sacred
persons of top generals and
admirals were used to deceive
them.
On RECORD now is the open
" confession of the grand high
co-ordinator, Jimmy Byrnes
himself, that the American die
tatorship is trying to get hold
of the manpower and produc-
ton of the nation not for mill
tary purposes but to continue
its controls after the victory in
Europe.
Many suspect that even the
Presidents support of the man
power bill was not sincere, but
a typical FDR vile.
There are those who think
that FDR wanted our military"
rebuked, feeling that they are
getting too independent and
strong.
For certain, that has been
the feeling of the inner White
House clique, specifically OF
Rosenman, Frankfurter, Nor
genthau and some others, who
have expressed themselves TO
various persons TO the effect
that Judge Byrnes was coming
10 be too much dominated by
the war and navy deOartments.
JUDGE BYRNES wanted 10
% resign before the Yalta Con-
ference.
II was said then that he con-
sented to stay and to make the
trip with Roosevelt on condition
that Rosenman be separated
from the presidential presence
for a while.
So he helped cook up for
RoSenman some sort Of travel
ing job around Europe, to fol-
low the conference.
Byrnes came home early, and
talked pretty frankly with
number of persons, including
senators.
He soon learned that as soon
as his back was turned. Rosen-
man had joined Roosevelt again
in North Africa.
The South Carolinian's anger
is said TO have been boundless
and his speech picturesque
mood which increased when he
heard the report TO Congress
which Rosenman wrote for FDR
10 deliver. and which covered
up many Yalta facts that had
already been confldentially re-
ported by Byrnes facts now
gradually being divulged to the
public.

now demand seat for its puppet, which would
only be another vote for Russia.
This. Britain opposes as violation OF me
Yalta secrets.
Nations are divided into two groups. Inc
sponsoring nations: the United States, Great
britain. Soviet Russia and China. and all others.
France was invited to be a sponsoring nation pht
with Characteristic French logic, DE Gaule de-
cned to sponsor what he knew nothing apout.
So far as the small nations are concernen.
IL is blind date. . They come because they are
asked but they do not know what Will be hanoed
them on the Yalta salver.
ENOR instance the essence of peace is the right
Il of every country to territorial. administrative
and cultural integrity.
The Atlantic Charter stands positively on
this right which was emphasized in, woodrow
Wilson's IA points, particularly In the point OF
self-determnaton. The Atlantic Charter says;
"(Roosevelt and Churchil) respect the
right Of all peoples TO choose the form Of gov-
ernment under which they will live; and they
wish to see sovereign rights and self-govern-
ment restored to those who have been forcibly
deprived Of them"
But suppose peoples have been deprived OF
their rights by "peace-loving" nations. is San
Francisco to recognize, confirm and establish
that as international morality?
Take, for instance Latvia or Lithuania. or
even Finland. Are these "aggressor" countries
or have they been deprived OF the rights guaran-
teed by the Atlantic Charter by one OF the
"peace-loving" countries?
The small nations of the world wonder
about this because their own fate is involved
in It,
Precisely what difference CAN'T make to a
country whether its conqueror, controller, mas
ter is defined as an "aggressor' or peace
loving" nation?
San Francisco must answer that.

pire forces captured the village of
Gaungbyo, four miles south of
Myinmu, and inflicted heavy losses
on the enemy in repulsing a Series
of counterattacks.
Fighting still was dogged and
bloody. The Japanese, apparently
feeling that their entire stake in
central Burma was dependent upon
repulsing this Allied thrust, were
expending their remaining equip
ment prodigally.
Twenty enemy tanks, the larg-
est single concentr of Japa-
nese armor ever reported in Bur.
ma, were attacked by Allied planes
and Is were destroyed. Raj and
U. S. Liberator bombers dropped
200 tons of explosives on key Japa-
nese supply dumps at Singaingmyo
20 miles south of Mandalay, turn.

Satisfactory Allied progress
was reported from the Singu

After the usual amenities were
passed the famed surgeon inquired:
Whatever happened to your little
polio PATIENT"
There were five more cases . . .
worse than the first one," the young
nurse replied, but all six are re-
covered now"
That's. fine" the doctor said.
How badly are they deformed?"
Miss Kenny smiled.
why, they are not crippled at
ALL" she said proudly. They are
entirely normal"
Demonstrates Treatment
While Miss Kenny described her
treatment, tie surgeon listened un-
lbelievingly. Finally he seized her
arm and escorted her into the hos
pital. He took her to the bedside of
a small boy whose legs were en-
cased in splints. his face comfort
ed in PAIN
DR.. Mcdonnell said:
This child just came in. You take
complete charge. Now show me just
how you treated your patients"
At that moment Miss Kenny
launched her one-woman crusade to
convince the medical world that she
had made a discovery that would
revolutionize the treatment of infan-
tile paralysis.
Before assembled doctors and
nurses at Toowoomba General hos
pital could intervene, Miss Kenny
stripped splints and bandages from
the child's legs. She called for boil
ing water and materials, then fash
Toned steaming foments which she
placed on the painful, lifeless limbs.
4EN Patient Rallies
The treatrnents and demonstra-
ton continued for several weeks and
to the amazement of everyone, the
patient rallied. Pain gradually left
his limbs. The pale, drawn flesh took
on new color and vitality. The boys
eyes began to sparkle and fill with
hope.
Then Miss Kenny began moving
the arms and legs of the boy in her
process of restoring their functions.
Finally she encouraged the boy to
try moving them himself.
In a few weeks the boy took his
first steps and before long he was
playing with his brothers and sis
tiers as actively as ever.
That first amazing demonstration
occurred more than a third of a ZEN
fury ago. Since then Miss Kenny
has waged a continual, relentless,
one-woman crusade against the raw
ages Of ~infantile paralysis.
In May, 1910, she carried her fight
to the United States, a new battle
front. She came here introduced by
the Premier of Queensland and a
