] PROBLEMS OF CONTROL
 DELAY PEACE
Trouble Seems to Be Exist ing Between Russia
 and United States

|, T. LONDON, Sept. Manifestations mounted today that the World War II peace settlement is becoming in- creasingly question of the ex- tent of Russian control in Europe as weighed against the extent of Ameri- can control in the Pacific.
 So far as is known the question of Pacific policy has received no attention from the Big Five Council of Foreign Ministers meeting here.
 Nevertheless, the British Press has seized upon Russian Foreign Com missar V. M Molotov's press con- ference hint that Moscow is unwill- ing to give up it's demands for Med- iterranean colonies so long as the United States wants control of the mandated Pacific islands it seized from the Japanese.
 While the Foreign Minister contin- ued their discussions on Rumanian peace treaty-which reliable sources report may be turned over to deput- ies today-there were more and more signs that no final decision could be reached until global political conten- ticns are ironed out. It seemed evil dent that Russia sees no difference in American claims aimed at insur- ing Pacific security and it's own de- mands for central European Secur- ity and commercial outlets.

Foundation Established ByNewspaper Publisher;
 Purposes Are Explained
By KENNETH HOPPING

TEXARKANA, Ark Tex, Sept 21-C. E. Palmer, noted Arkansas Texas n wspaper publisher, an nounced today the establishment of a $100O0O foundation to con- tribute to the True peace for which we as a nation have been striving"
 H. w, Stilwell, Superintendent of the Texarkana, Tex, public schools, will be president of the fund, which will be known as the Palmer Foun- daticn.
 One of the first projects of the foundation will be to award prizes of $1,000 and $500 for the best proposals which would answer this question:
 How best may we inculcate in young people a consciousness of, and a devotion to, the principles of morality that are embodied in the Golden Rule Do Unto Others As You Would Have Others Do Unto You'?"
 This is an undertaking which I hope will contribute to the true peace for which we as nation have been striving" Palmer said. We have learned by now that peace is not something to be taken for granted but is condition which can be maintained only by the unselfish devotion of many millions of people.
 "The war which has just been concluded was brought about by national and racial selfishness and greed. It is true that we as na- tion have been united in the win ming of that war. Beyond this, however, our people probably are more disunited than ever before. :. Starting with a relatively modest sum, the Palmer Foundation will undertake to foster this principle which so many profess to cherish but too few have adopted as a guide to living"

NEW YORK. Sept. 2l.-Johr Chamberlain, an editor of Life Mag azine, says in the current issue of the publication that Gov. Thomas E Dewey knew President Roosevelt was forewarned of the 1941 Japa- nese attack. but the Republican de- clired to use his knowledge as a campaign weapon in l944.
 Dewey was in a position to charge that the President had be- trayed' the interests of the U. s. in failing either to forestall or miti- gate an attack for which we were on the certification of General Mar shall, not yet ready Chamberlain said.
 Political impact of such a charge if supported by the evidence oi oc1e-cracking, would have been ter rifle, and might well have landed Dewey in the White House" : Chamberlain said Dewey learned long before the 1914 election that America had cracked the Japanese ultra code some time prior tc Pearl Harbor and that Roosevelt and his advisers knew what the Japanese were going to do well in advance ot the overt rupture of relations"
 In Albany last night, a spokesman for Dewey said the Governor was not available for a statement.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

u WASHINGTON-Tip- off on the Navy's original discharge intention was dropped accidentally by retir- ing Chief of Personnel Admiral Randall Jacobs.
 A smart young reporter for the Washington Star Miriam Otten- berg, asked Navy Press Relations for an interview with Jacobs. She was told she could have one if he had no objections. Navy Press Rela- tions promptly phoned Jacobs of flee that the interview was not to be given, but somehow this mes sage went haywire.
 Miss Gutenberg got the inter- view. It was pip. The Admiral really expanded. Among other things, he dropped this nugget of truth regarding the Navy's dis charge system:
 We want the young men in the Navy. That's why age was in- cluded. The younger ones are the ones the Navy of the future has to be built around"
 This is the tip-off to the fact that young man can have been in the Navy four long years-since before Pearl Harbor-and if he isn't married, he still may not be able to get out.
