IMoIotov Goes Back
To New York After
White House Visit

Soviet Foreign Minister Molo-
tov was back in New York for
Big Four meetings today after
having "a good conversation"
with President Truman and
being assured by other officials
here that the Republican cleo
ton victory Tuesday does not
mean any change In American
foreign policy.
Mr.. Molotov made a 10-minute
social" visit to the White House
yesterday afternoon soon after he
arrived here to attend the Soviet
Embassy's reception in celebration
OF the 29th anniversary of the Rus
sian revolution.
At the reception last night, he
stood for a short time in the re-
ceiving line with Ambassador Nj
kolai v. Novikov and Nine. Novikos
and then retired to small, closely
guarded room to receive ranking
guests privately.

White House Press Secretary
Charles G. Ross described Mr.. Mol
otov's visit with Mr.. Truman as
purely social affair-just pleas
ant exchange of remarks on both
sides, with no important matters
being discussed.
He said Mr.. Molotov told the
President through an interpreter
that he was very happy at his re-
Iception in this country and described
Americans as good hosts.
Both men, Mr.. Ross added. talked
about their first meeting during the
1945 Potsdam Conference.
Mr.. Molotov told reporters as he
left the White House that he hac
"a good conversation with the Presi-
dent"
Several hundred people packed
the second-fioor reception rooms at
the Soviet Embassy party later, but
comparatively few got to see the
Foreign Minister.
In the small room to which he
retired after leaving the formal re-
ceiving line early was a table packed
with lobster, turkey, ham and other
delicacies, along with vodka ano
champagne

crowds back from the door, while

u. ). 10 Offer Plan
To Speed Payment
OF Jap Repardtions

The United States today was
seeking to speed up division of repa-
Irations from Japan through an
interim directive to Gen. Macarthur
pending a final reparations agree
ment by the Allies.
Members of the Far Eastern Com
mission, it was disclosed, have been
asked to consult" with this Gov
ernment on orders to Gen MacAr-
thur for immediate division among
claimant countries of Is to 20 per
cent of japanese assets selected for
Preparations. Alloca ton of the re-
naming 80 per cent would be de-
terrnined later.
Efforts to work out final rep
arations agreement have been
blocked so far by Russia. which is
described as unwilling to treat
former japanese properties removed
from Manchuria as reparations in
stead of war booty
Officials familiar with the prob
lem said that under the American
plan directive would be drawn up
after these suggested consultations
and sent to Gen. Macarthur for
execution. 1t then would be sub
mitted. to the Far East Commission
for review
If, as expected, Russian repreSen-
tatfves on the Far East Commission
oppose the proposal, the program
would be carried out nonethelesS
since Gen. Macarthur would al
ready be acting on directive sent
by the United States under its
power as the principal occupying
authority.
The idea OF permitting other
countries to consult in preparing
this directive obviously stemmed
from an American desire to avoid
charges that the United States was
debating" policy and circumvent-
ing the commission.
The major share of japanese
reparations are expected to go to
China, the Philippines, India, Aus
tralia and Britain. The United
States is expected to be awarded
little if any.
Properties scheduled to be In
cluded in the reparations list are
power plants, iron and steel works,
machine tools, shipbuilding yards,
synthetic oil plants and war fac
tories that can be converted to
| civilian use.

hind the soda fountain and a small
boy to remain where they were

Radio Artists Vote
For Strike Call Against
Four Major Networks
BY the Associated Press

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 6.--The Hol-
| lywsod chapter. which includes
some of radios biggest names. unan-
imously authorized the NationaI
Board of the American Federation
of Radio Artists last night to call a
strike unless four major networks
agree to new contracts.
Negotiat tions among the AFI
union and the networks broke down
/ in New York October 30.
George Heller. national executive
secretary of the organization. said
! then that the deadlock arose over
a union demand for a clause in the
new contract which would require
all networks to refuse to pipe In
their programs to any affiliated sta
ton which refused to negotiate OF
arbitrate issues with AFRA."
Negotiating for Months.
Mr.. Heller said the union hac
been negotiating since October
to replace contract expiring
October 81 with the four majol
networks.
! A few stars Of the big nam,
shows were in attendance at thi
meeting last night, among then
Jack Benny. Jack Haley and Penn,
Singleton. National President Ker
Carpenter. Local President Carltor
kadell and Executive Secretar,
Claude McCue were the chief speak
ers, outlining at considerable length
AFRAs objective, while some 2.00l
of the federations 5000 member
here listened.
| In general. Mr. McCue said, tn,
membership is seeking a IS per cen
wage increase He pointed ou
that AFRA abided by no-strik'
clause throughout the war.
Typical Categories.
| Although there are scores of cate.
gories, typical present scales include
| for an hours show: Actors, S49.61
! free-lan announcers and news
casters, $2481; for a half-houl
show: Actors. s3751 for quarter
nour broadcast: NeWscasters, S14.92
In addition, AFRA asks the net
works to refuse to channel pro-
grams to nonnetWork- owned sta
tions which refuse to deal with
AFRA Management contends. Mr.
McCue declared, that this would put
the networks in the position of bar
gaining for the union.
Most of the larger network shows
such as the half-hour comedy and
variety programs, would not be af-
fected.

The home is fundamental unit
of democracy, and in a Christian
civilization, the Christian home
must be preserved at all cost.
With homes crashing all about
us, the majority of the problems
which come to this desk having
to do with disordered domestic
relations, it shouldn't be so hard
to understand why / write so
much about the home.
Just now before me is a letter
from an intelligent, cultured, pro-
fessional middle-aged woman, a
personal friend, who was just
recently married. I wrote her
extending my congratulations. In
reply I received a lovely letter,
one sentence Of which I must pass
on:
with so many homes falling
apart today, I thought long and
seriously about forsaking a very
satisfactory way of life for a
home and husband. After all, I
reasoned, the basic fundamentals
of a happy, successful marriage
haven't changed, and so long as
two people love each other, and
are accustomed to solving their
problems on their knees, they
ought to be able to manage"
This thoughtful woman has
summed up in one sentence, the
key to a successful marriage.
This is true, whether participants
are at the threshold of life, at
middle age, or even in what is
so-called old age.
The time was when I thought
it was foolish for older people,
who were widows or widowers,
to undertake a second marriage
late in life. My attitude towards
this has changed, as have learn
ed to understand marriage in its
fullest implication.
A successful marriage is fund
amentally a fine companionship
It is a union of two lives for the

which are available to those who

A successful marriage demands

To attain the utmost success,
the contracting parties should be
of comparable age, preferably the
man being older than the woman.
But this age difference must not
be too great.
Those who have been happily
married, and have lost their mates
by death, can, and in most cases
should seek the compainonship

those separated by divorce, the
