I THINK the meeting in San
Il Francisco was the only one
AT which Russia won and lost.
In all others she has won her
position completely without los
ing any point she might consider
important.
From Mr.. Hull'S first visit 10
Moscow and through every con-
ference including Mr. Byrnes'
last flight, every announcement
of results confirmed the basic
Russian position,
But at San Francisco where
she had TO encounter the whole
world, she had to make some
compromises. even though re-
tanning the veto power in the
controlling Big Five council.
The smaller nations made head
way there.
The new world problem runs
even deeper INTO the very core
of the peace. The ByrneS-Sta-
line formula -SetS-up United
Nations control Of Japan, main

we could hardly be expected TO

IN NO other nation is this
Il United Nations theory of
control set up by the ByrneS-
Stain agreementS-not IN Ro-
mania or Bulgaria. both con-
uuered countries. and not in
the troubled zones of Commu-
mist revolutions, namely Iran
and China.
A Russian iSolationiSm pro-
tected by the SharpeSt censor
ship and exclusion has been
accepted by the Big Three in
violation of the very funda-
mental theory Of United Ma
tlonS world management for
the Russian conquest zones.
Is the United Nations theory
TO be pursued? Only in Japan?
Are the bilateral agreements
which Russia had been making
with individual countries in
Europe. directly and indirectly,
10 be woven into the United
Nations Organization fabric?
VIII UNO accept such con-
ceSSionS TO Russia contrasting
10 its own ideal? Will Messrs.
ByrneS and Bevin. together with
Mr.. MolotoV'S assistants push
the UNO into this vague realm
in contrast with its purposes ?
THE only inkling Of an answer
Il | have found behind events
involves curious little circum-
stance which may be important.
Mr.. Byrnes did not take his
right hand adviser. James Dunn,
TO the Moscow conference.
Mr.. Dunn has been accused,
particularly by Communists. Of
not being exactly what they
wanted in higher places. Mr..
Dunn was left at home. Instead

THE right-hand adviser is TO

What does all this mean?
Personally think the great en-

on his Moscow agreements will
decline.
On the other hand, the oh

Keep these delicate nuances
OF the underlying situation in
mind when you read the news
from London.
