very significant reason. They had two powerful friends at court. Italys friend was the USA, Bull garia's friend was the USSR. Rus sia, for instance, asked that Bull garia pay no separations, while from Italy. she demanded $500, 0,000,- coo. Thanks to Jimmie Byrnes, this was scaled down to $1OO,0OO,000.
 Thus Italy, one of the original Axis powers, which started the world on the path of war in Ethio- pia even before Hitler went on the rampage, pays less separations than Finland, Hungary or Rumania. In- cidentally, Italy pays no separations to Ethiopia despite the fact that she ravished that country in one of the most shameful conquests in history. The treaty only provides that Italy pay Ethiopia for damag7 ed works of art. Greece, another country wantonly invaded by Mus SOHill, ClSO Stlo llO obdOCO iCPdiet tions payments from Italy Greek damages will be a matter for con- ference debate. In other words, the United States fought Italy's battles in secret Big Four sessions right down the line and despite the gnashing of teeth by the Italian Prime Ministetr she got off much better than expected.

Genes Pals
Washington Post)


 It is empty satisfaction that the mob obtained last week when they ntimdated a Thomaston, Ga, editor for his animadversons about the election of Gene Talmadge. The editor, faced with the loss of his plant and possibly his head agreed to apologize It would be easy to condemn him for puSillanimity, but martyrdom would have added nothing to this ad- vertisemert of Georgian hoodumism. To of our readers the incident might return to the horse whip tactics of the days of personal journalism. We take graver view. This seems to us an organized attempt to muzze criticism in the worst fascist ner, and it must be viewed a dark of things to by the 125 Georgia newspapers which opposed Talmadges gubernatoral campaign.
 The editorial to which the mob objected stated simply: Tn the country counties where ignorance and prejudice rule and there is Negro problem, old Gene got his big votes but in the city counties where education and enlightening reign Carmichael piled up huge vote' The validity of the statement is proved all too clearly by the character of the oppos tion to it. It is measure of the stupidity of the gangsters who think they made the editor eat his words that they can believe that apology makes what was said any less true. All they did was to underline the truth of the editors comment In a sense, also the episode is of the tre- mendous task lying ahead of the progressive forces CIeOrgia

Byrnes into giving permanent and official recognition of Latvla $, Lithuania's and Estonias incorpor- ation into the Soviet. In one seS- sion, Molotov told Jimmie that Churchill and Roosevelt both had given the nod to these three Baltic states as part of Russia. The FDR- Winston OK, he said, was given at Teheran and Yalta. Byrnes, how ever, didn't want to recognize the Baltic states as yet.
 Secret Session 4,o. . - Between Byrnes and Frances handsome, pink checked Foreign Minister Bi- dault, Byrnes has been trying to persuade Bidault to join the USA and the United Kingdom in unify- ing Germany. But the Frenchman has been stubborn. Like Attlee, he is in a trading mood and has de- clined to agree to unification of Germany unless-and this is a big unloss-Franee gets two conces- sions:
 1) More territory from Italy.
 @ Complete French control of the Saar Valley, with it's rich coal deposits plus the industrially veal thy Rhineland.
 Obviously Jimmie Byrnes, good away these points, because they have to be decided by the rest of the conference. The tragic fact is that while the delegates barter and haggle, conditions in Germany are drifting dangerously - so danger ously that unification may come too late.

FRIENDLY ENEMIES

One indication of how badly this conference was organized When the peace treaties for the Axis sat- elites finally were made public only twenty copies were available to several hundred American news men. Some newsmen, such as the Greeks and Chinese, didn't get a single copy. Though the general content of the treaties was well known to the enemy countries, the first things Bulgaria and Italy did was to let out loud squawk The real fact, however is that both got off better than the others, for

AROUND THE PEACE TABLE

The Chinese Ambassador sits during /,rence sessions waving large Japanese fan. It's warm in the Luxembourg Palace. . Lined up on the very front Conference row are Australia's Evatt and Am erica'S ByrneS, most dynamic of all delegates. They got their seats all alphabetically, though the French stretched point to have Byrnes sit in front. Strictly speaking, he should sit under Etats Unis Unit cd States, not Amerique (America) White Russia missed it's cue from Molotoy and voted wrong on one ballet. Reason was that White Russia, listed as Belorussia, comes near the top of the roll call al phabetically, so it's delegate didn't have time to get the nod from the Russian delegation.
 Canada also voted wrong on one ballot-for Russia and against the British Empire. This was when CzechoaloVakia's Jan Masaryk pro- posed two rotating chairman of the Rules Committee, one Yugoslav tpro- Russian and one Belgian (anti~Russian). Premier Mackenzie King supported this straddle, though the U. S., Britain and all the ether members of the British Empire opposed This Czech straddle on the chairmanship is significant of the hole the Czechs are in.

 Starr added that the mercha .- disc would have to be held there. even though it is parcel post, un- til some other means of transport ation could be found.
 This leaves local merchants al bad shape for Christmas selling. Many had placed their orders $ far back as September and the goods. have evidently been held in Seattle since that time
 Postmaster Sharnbroich took the matter up with Mayor Doris Barnes this afternoon and Mayor Barn g was going to contact Acting Gov ernor Lew Williams in Juneau } see if some means could be worked out to have the merchandise picked up by Coast Guard vessels or othe- vessels, and brought to Alaska.
