''The hotels plead poverty. They
say their business has shown de-
leline from the wartime peak. But
during negotiations, when the hotels
were asked by the union to back up
their plea Of poverty with finan-

the extent Of their profits had
nothing to do with the case and re-
fused to disclose them. To the

daily witnessed the capacity busi-

Elliott quotes his father In his
forthcoming book. las He Saw It."
The second of four advance excerpts
from the book was published today
in Look magazine.
This excerpt concerns the Roose-
velt-Chunchill conference at Casa
blanca. The elder Roosevelt is rep
resented as convinced that old CO.
lonial systems should be eliminated
in the postwar world, and he was
working on Churchill toward that
end.

told him. Exploit the resources OF
an India, a Burma, a Java-take all
the wealth out of those countries
but never put anything back into
them-and all you're doing is storing
up the trouble that leads to war"
One of the Presidents greatest
concerns at the Casablanca confer
ence, Elliott says, was to save the
face of the State Department, so thai
it would not be hampered in future
operations, yet untangle what he

ferring to Gen. de Gaulle as man
with "a Jeanne dare complex, but

AS the conference ended, Elliott
writes, his father reverted to the
colonial problem:
This time I've tried to make il
clear to Winston that while we're
their allies they must never get
the idea that we're in this war just
to help them hang on to archaic
medieval empire ideas. I hope they
realize after we've won that we're
not going to sit by and watch their
