more closely with Britain as opposed
to those of Russia.
Then there IS still the unhealed
sore which President Roosevelt's
personal emissary, Edward Flynn,
has been trying to heal, the friction
between the Vatican and the Krem-
lin.
Lastly and perhaps more disturb
ing is what appears to be unilateral
action toward small countries on
the part of Russia in spite Of the
Yalta agreement.
Now those persons like Vice Presi-
dent Truman, who take the more
positive and more hopeful view, feel
that some of these factors have been
built into bogey-men, that granted
they exist as facts, that Churchill
and Stain don't always see eye to
eye and that even less sympathy ex-
lists between the Catholic church and
the head Of the Communist party,
none of these situations need affect
the creation Of an International or
ganization.
AS to fear Of Russia. Well, frank
ly, cannot understand the workings
of the official Russian mind, can
not understand the hysterical at
tacks in the Russian press on Walter
Lippman, for instance, who has been
in the first ranks Of those who urge
Russo-American unity; attacks on
Senator Vandenberg against whom
they throw their whole book of anti
fascist vocabulary when he is on
record as supporting three-power
treaty for disarming the axis which
would be the basis of the chief thing
Stain wants-an agreement OF the
only two great powers besides his
own country, which would guarantee
Russian security.
do not understand all this. do
not accept the propaganda which
tries to say that communist govern
ment is democracy. But there is
one thing which sold me on playing
ball with Russia. That is the pa
tient, earnest and convincing argu-
ment Of former Secretary Of State
Cordell Hull, who certainly has no
more love for communism than he
has for fascism, who was never &C.

cused Of wandering with his head
in the clouds or Of trying to reform
the world, or square the circle, and
although he has faith a-plenty he
wouldn't try to move mountain
without bulldozer.
His argument boils down to this:
Russia and America need each 9th
er. Russia knows this. There are
fewer obstacles to practical un
derstanding between the countries
than there are reasons why we
should work together for mutual
benefit.

Partners Couldn't Tolerate
Each Other, Yet Succeeded

One of the strangest partner
ships was that of Gilbert and Sulli-
van who, between 1871 and 1896,
collaborated as ibrettist and COM
poser respectively in producing IA
of the most popular and profitable
operas in musical history. Owing
to their low regard and intense dis
like for each other, these men
rarely met, preferring to 'work
together" through the mail.
Three times, in fits of anger,
they broke off their partnership
and tried collaborating with new
associates, only to find that neither
could produce a successful work
without the other.

Fear of Russia
Shades Future

It is clear that such doubt and sus-
picion as may have arisen as to the
possibility Of failure of achievement
of world cooperation arises chiefly
from one thing: fear of Russia. Next
is the feeling in some quarters that
Churchills inability always to get
along with Stain BODIES i'll for tri-
party harmony and some feel that
the United States instead Of trying
to bring the two closer together
should identify American interests

Sponsors Provisions
For Adjustments

Though it is generally agreed that
the support of the American people
of any international organization OF
which Russia is a part depends on
the conduct of the Kremlin between
now and the end of the San Fran
cisco conference, Senator Vanden-
berg goes farther than that. He says
that the support Of the necessary
two-thirds of the United States SEN
ate for any organization which rec.
ognizes international organization
depends upon inserting into the
document which defines it, what he
calls an escape clause" That es-
cape clause would permit the re-
adjusting of certain conditions now
existing, certain sore spots which he
feels may become cancers. The es-
cape clause would permit the Unit
ed Nations to escape from any re-
striction which prevented what they
feel is the righting of wrongs.
Injustice" says Vandenberg, sis
a strait jacket and you can't keep
the world in strait jacket"
OF course, there are lot of Polish
votes in Vandenberg's constituency
and member of congress is such
by virtue of, and the powers he ex-
erts are delegated by, the people
who put him in office. Nevertheless,
he is not speaking merely for his
Polish constituents when he talks
about including in the jurisdiction of
the United Nations, the administer
ing Of justice. That Is the trade
mark he wants to put on any Or
ganization which comes out Of San
Francisco.
Other members of the delegation
have trademarks Of their own. But
as nearly as I can Judge all are
willing to make considerable sacri-
fee Of their personal views, rather
than shake the worlds morale with
failure to produce anything

walked down the cool, twilit cor
ridor Of the senate office building
and out into the warm spring sun.
AS I crossed the threshold, the light
on the bright white marble step
blinded me and for second ]
CROPPED downward blindly.
AS stood moment recovering
my equilibrium the thought flashed
through my mind that this expert
ence was very much like the longer
one which preceded it. I had been
talking with Vice President Truman,
Senators Connally, Vandenberg and
others about the forthcoming meet
ing in San Francisco of the United
Nations.
recalled Truman's nervously en-
ergetic speech as he assured me
that he was giving his time to just
one thing: acting as Haison between
the President and the senate to keep
the chief executive and the legisla-
tive leaders as nearly in step as pos
sible.
I recalled Senator Vandenberg's
expression as ! left him plunged
deep in the thousand extra tasks and
worries which his function as Re-
publican member of the delegation
had plunged him. He had said:
.'If San Francisco doesn't succeed 1t
will be the greatest moral blow the
world has ever experienced"
I thought of Connally's careful pol
icy of withholding public comment
or quotation concerning the coming
conference, except carefully thought
out statements or speeches such as
the one he will make in the senate
before the conference. His is the
delicate task as senior administra-
ton Representative on the delegation
of maintaining balance between
the views of the Republican mem
bers represented on the delega-
ton, the administration viewpoint,
and his own and other personal
views. After all, as senate major
ity leader he is responsible for help
ing to carry out a policy which not
only a majority, but two-thirds Of
the senate will accept.
I also thought of the wide vari-
ance of views expressed by men,
bers of both houses not directly con-
nected with the negotiations and of
the great reticence of many who
hesitate to express any view at this
time.
And I thought of the out-and-out
isolationists; very few who admit
that position and others whose
doubts and suspicious battle with
what they feel has been the strong
trend for wholehearted cooperation
which the various polls and other
media Of public expression appear to
register.
These kinetic thoughts moving
now in harmony, now in friction,
seemed suddenly to have generated
a binding light that burst into the
shadows of the complacent assur-
ance which had enveloped me and
left me little dizzy. What tre-
mendous opportunity seems to be
offered to a war-weary world; what
a fatal possibility if the effort fails.

They Connot Sleep!

Marion ModzelewSki wrote letter to
the editor this month. He told how he
couldn't sleep at nights in his foXhole in
Germany for fear of freezing to death or
being blown to pieces by grenade thrown
by German who had sneaked upon him.
He, and thousands of boys like him in
Europe and the Pacific, have gone sleepless
night after night, or when they could sleep
they have done so fitfully. They can't sleep,
yet make no effort to go on strike because
they cannot afford proper rest; they ask no
overtime pay for dying or being wounded.
Yet, Friday, the entire crew of an after
noon shift at the Continental Motors COM
pany, 1000 workers, walked out in SYM
pathy when two men were discharged for
sleeping on the job.
Their sympathy action" resulted in the
shutdown of work on necessary war mate
riel Materiel vitality needed by servicemen
who have no time for sleeping, when the
difference between life and death rests on
their keeping awake.
1t means life and death, not only for
themselves but for the workers who lave
their jobs to strike for the right to sleep
on the job!

A Good Place to Stort

Already the biennial controversy has
started over the new wage contract for
bituminous coal mines. The coal mine op-
orators, who as owners of the mines are
responsible for improvement and employ
ment, will have little to say about what is
done. They have no choice in the matter
of wages or working conditions. They are
now merely agents for government agencies
and the United Mine Workers.
If there is difficulty over the terms of
a new union contract, the usual process
will be threat of the union to strike Then
the various government agencies will "nego-
tlate". If the usual practice is followed, a
strike will be called, the government will
take over the mines, there will be lot of
lost coal production, and eventually the
miners will get what they want This has
been the process throughout the war. Will
the nation have to go through this punish
ment again, or will the public officials who
are responsible for the settlement of these
question be able to profit by experience and
prevent work stoppage?
AS evidence of its ability to help for
mulate sound plans for future world peace
it would be encouraging if our government
could evolve some method for securing an
equitable solution of industrial questions
at home.

Their Sundoy-Best

In our town these Spring Sundays bring
out frockS, soft wooden suits, bright new
bonnets. Dressed in our Sunday-beSt scrub
bed and clean, we 60 to church, visit our
friends, enjoy the peace of the day.
In another town the people are in their
Sunday-best, too. They wear rags, straw,
newspaper. Mothers, fathers and children
take turns going to church because there
isn't enough ragged clothing to cover all
of them. In thousands of War-Wracked towns
like theirs, people are stripped and deSti-
tute. These are the people of liberated
Europe, 125,000000 of them. There is no
dignity in their days.
And there is no dignity for us, no true
true peace in our Sundays until we give
what little help we can. Our government
and the major war relief agencies have ar
ranged to get our used clothing to Europe.
Ships and planes will take our old shoes,
suits, coats, bedding, dresses into Greece,
Russia, Yugoslavia, France, Holland, Bel
GUM, wherever the need is greatest. We
are asked only to rummage through our
closets and attics, to give away our cast-offs.
This clothing drive, the United National
Clothing Collection, is being conducted
throughout the nation. Schools, churches,
factories, clubs, are spearheading the cam
paign. Our town, along with others, must
help collect the 150,000,000 pounds Of cloth
ing needed Each family is asked to give
five pounds per person. Wrap the clothes
in q neat bundle for collection depot.
Your contribution will demonstrate to
our allies the spirit of democracy.

Time to Speak Out!

In an industrial economy such as ours,
industry mainSpringS the whole economy
and that means all of us, city and farm alike.
And it means jobs, which do not grow
on trees or even on Mr.. Wallace's special
hybrid corn!
Labor and management agree that
workers worry today over what's to hap
pen to employment after war production
cases is chiefly to blame for their deser-
ton of war plants.
Meanwhile, Government maintains a
taboo on even talking about reconversion,"
although Germany's collapse is certain and
not far distant.
The National Association of Manufac-
turers, representing the great bulk of Am
erican management, declares it is time for
industry to discard that taboo
If industry, which has been responsible
for its share of the jobs heretofore and
which has been prime mover of prosperity,
is not allowed to prepare for We Day and
for eventual peace, the penalty of unpre-
paredness is failure-will be paid
not only by industry but by all of us.
To say that we may not think or talk
Of industrial reconversion now is to sem
tence industry to peacetime default in it's
responsibilities which might put the whole
economic system in the hands of Govern
ment

Who the Convicts Are

Recently an undiSclOSed number of
American soldiers were sentenced to prison.
They were requested by their own govern
ment to spend ten to fifteen years of their
lives in Jail. Most of them had fought hon.
orably for their country. But nevertheless
they were punished severely for an unfor-
givable crime: they diverted supplies essen
tial to the war on the German front They
called it playing around" with the black
market.
Investigation has shown that most of
these soldiers were not criminals. Most of
them come from respectable homes in small
towns. A little thought will show that they
are not the real convictS at all
The real convictS are not in military
prisons. The criminals of the black market
are on the home front; the woman who
buys nylon stockings, the man who uses
black market gasoline, the housewife who
buys steaks at fancy prices without ration
points. These share the guilt of the con-
vlcted boys. When serviceman overseas
reads OF civilians unwilling to put up with
wartime restrictions home, he doesn't hest
tate to dip into the black market overseas.
If civilians can get away with it, so can he.
OF course nobody really gets away with it.
Even If you don't get a ten-year sentence
to prison, you're paying with boys lives in
stacking up the bad days of war

on one Of these islands as 1t would
be to know everybody in Indianap-
oils.
You could live and work in your
section, and never visit another sec
ton for weeks or months at a
time. And that's exactly what does
happen.
For one thing, transportation is
short. We are still building furiously
here, such fast and fantastic build
ing as you never dreamed of. Every
thing that runs is being used, and
there's little left over just to run
around In for fun.
And anyhow, there's no place to
go. What towns there were have
been destroyed. There is nothing
even resembling a town or city on
these islands now. The natives have
been set up in improviSed camps,
but they offer no city life" attrac-
tionS.
AS we drove around one Of the
islands on my first day here, We
went through one Of the MarianaS
towns that had been destroyed by
bombing and Smelling. 1t had been
. good-sized place, quite modern
too in a tropical way. 1t had a
city plaza and municipal buildings
and paved streets, and many of the
buildings were of stone or mortar.
In destruction, it looked exactly
as destroyed cities all over Europe
look. The same jagged half-stand-
ing walls, the stacks of rubble, the
empty houses you could see through,
the roofleSS homes, the deep craterS
in the gardens.
There was just one difference.
Out here tropical vegetation is lush.
And nature thrustS up her greenery
so swiftly through rubble and de-
struction that the ruins now are
festooned with vines and green
leaves, and it gives them a look of
being very old and time-worn ruins,
instead of fresh modern ones, which
they are.
