Truth or Conflict
Cincinnati Enquirer

Cincinnati Enquirer
 During the thousands of years of history modern man has struggled toward truth. He's had difficult time arriving at many real truths-deductons from facts which will stand any test His efforts have been notably fruitless in the field of politics, where truths remain scarce diamonds in pig sty. This IS par ticularly true the world of international politics International diplomacy seems to be based on un- truth or half truth No land is willing to tell it's neighbors all the facts Each is chary of disclosing weaknesses, either in its social or economic system Such a program encourages misunderstanding and suspicion, and misunderstanding ana SuSplclon are stepping stones to war.
 This pattern of action, familiar in all pages of history, is shaping again in our relations with ttussa Moscow seems intent feeding us only half-truths about her plans and intentions. and are playing the same sort of game. So far the situation cannoc be called serious but if both nations continue along paths they following serious developments are likely
 The Soviet has refused consistently to sanction any free interchange Of news. Few U. s. newspaper men are allowed within the borders of the great Rus sian state-and Americans resent the barrier. But Russia contends and with reason that news stories which many American correspondents send out are colored that they present only half-ruths-the half which is anti-Soviet.
 Before the Uniied States can be too adamant in her accusations of Russia policies must to it that skirts are clean Before we bring too serious charges of unfair practices should be certain that we are doing would be done by. Certainly many
  by correspondents to Manchuria failed to present and unbiased report conditions there. Just dozen Soviet activities tend to arouse our suspicion so would that-and other recent incidents-tend to arouse Russias suspicious of us.
 It is interesting to note that success has come to United States and to the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics because in each of these unions there has been a free exchange of ideas among the various political subdivisions comprising them. If Wisconsin devses successful social or political program, Cali fer YOrk al and accept reject it they choose. The Soviet Union follows roughly the same plan Each state is willing admit the weaknesses of it's experiments other states willing to admit their points of advantage Local suspicious and distrusts, ram pant here in Europe, have been dissolved Dangers civil have been eliminated and common benefits have resulted.
 If the interchange of facts and truths could be arrived between nations the benefits could be enjoyed But mutual trust and understanding cannot long great continue to base their diplomacy in halftruths outright deceptions That way leads to World War III

voters of Juneau yesterday apparently put the .snn of disapprova on the city administrators mun- naloy77ership- f-utilties program by voting Mayor rrnes, Parsons out of office and voting Waino andrickson ard two members of his ticket into office And the margin was decisive.
 We believe it was quite well understood that II the people of Juneau wished the present course take by the Parsons administration continued they shouo vote to keep the incumbent in office and yesterdays vote is significant.
 At the same time it should be remembered that when Parsons was elected mayor even though the vote was close the voters endorsed his program NO" they have changed their minds and the reason may have been the facts brought out during the recently concluded rate hearings.
 We congratuate the new city officers, Mayor-elect endrckson Councilmen-elect Larsen, Sully and Jor- eenson and wish them success in what is not an easy job.
 At the same time We wish to express our thanks to the outgoing officers, Mayor Parsons Counclimen Skuse, Young and Lea, who have devoted good deal

 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 A spectacular expose of black market activities is foreseen. Di- version by black market operators of foodstuffs needed by the starv- ing victims of postwar famines in many foreign lands will be univer- sally condemned.

 Flew demands for a more demo- cratic army will follow the arrival overseas of families of officers and men in the three top noncommis- sioned grades. The army will be told that it should permit all mar risd soldiers to have their families with them.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Those disturbed by the increas- ing resistance to Russias expan- sion program have no reason to be afraid.

Mr.. Roylan's statement was the
first cor Gaining specific mention OF
an agreement since negotiations
started May 10.
But neither Mr.. Boyland nor the
negotiating groups would give any
indication of the exact progress
made or what agreements were be-
ing sought. The miners, however
are reported to be making demands
similar to those won by the bitumi-
nous workers in Washington.
The soft coal awards included an
increase of 1872 cents an hour, over
time pay after seven-hour day, a
health and welfare fund financed
by 5 cents a ton and a mine safety

Judicial Selection, testified that
Mrs. Gallagher failed in her bar
examinations twice before she
passed the bar in 1910. Referring to
the poll taken by the Selections
Committee to get the opinion of the
association membership on Mrs.
Gallagher, Mr.. Smith said the rea-
son the ballot said nothing about
her qualifications was because as far
as we were concerned, she had
noEe"
The result of the poll was report
ed by Hugh H. Obear, association
president, who said there we're 1853
votes against and Ill for confirma-
ton.
Several Of the witnesses opposing
Mrs. Gallagher's nomination COM
mented on the fact that Municipal
Court is far behind in its work and
emphasized that the judge appoint
ed to fill the vacancy left by the
elevation of Judge Brice Clagett to
the Municipal Court of Appeals
should be capable of carrying his or
her share of the days work.
John ]. CarmoGy, past president
of the bar association and a men,
Der of the Selections Committee
said that las matter of conscience
the committee feels that Mrs. Gal
lagher could not measure up"
Richard ". Galiher said that, as
"a lawyer, he had been in Municipal
Court approximately four times a
week since s1940 when Mrs. Gal
lagher was admitted to the bar and
that he had seen her there only
once.
Senator McCarran interrupted the
parade of male lawyers to comment
that he would not criticize the bar
association regardless of what came
of the nomination because the "bar
of the District has absolutely moth
ing on which it can build the in
tegrity OF the courts except to come
to this committee"
Pointing out that judges are elect
ed in the States, Senator McCarran
emphasized that the District has no
vote and therefore the only way it
can maintain the sanctity of the
bench is to have an active bar asso-
citation. /
Mr.. Vanech testified that Mrs.
Gallagher is making $3.50 in the
Office of the Assistant Solicitor Gen.
eral and that she has an excellent
efficiency rating. The Municipal

Papertroopers Set
Mark at Woodbridge
With $1,000 Pounds

Woodbridge School, located at Carl
ton and Central avenues NE, broke
all records in the collection of waste
paper this week when the Paper
troopers ran up a total of more than
$1,000 pounds of old newspapers and
magazines with one collection still
to be heard from.
Joining the drive to raise suffi-
Gent funds to endoW a four-bed
ward in Childrens Hospital, the
Papertroopers so organized their
work that even on incomplete re-
turns mark of better than IT
pounds per capita has been reported.
This is more than five times Wood
ridges quota.
Going about the work systemati-
cally, the Papertroopers visited every
home in every block in their terri
tory and arranged date when the
home owner would place the paper
on the front porch for the Paper
troopers to pick up. Where bundles
were too heavy for the children a
committee of mothers with eight au-
tomobiles toured the area with older
Papertroopers and made the collec-
tons. When the last collection is
made.it is probable that Woodridges
total will reach 100 pounds per cap
tia, an all-time record for one weeks
collection.
Further aid to the drive was re-
ceived today when checks for $6119
from w. B. Powell PTA and for $25
from Horace Mann PTA were re-
ceived to be added to the growing
total which now is more than 81 500.
Other schools which have pledged
cash contributions are Murch, Kim
ball, Davis, Hearst and Van Ness.
Westbrook, in Montgomery County,
has already given s6211 through the
Montgomery County Committee for
Childrens Hospital, and this will 60
to the Papertroopers' Memorial
Ward.
The results of the drive so far
have fallen short of the goal, but
further help has been indicated by
a number of schools which fell short
of their quota of Is pounds per cap
tia and intend to keep collecting
until they reach that figure.
Yesterdays collections, which to-
tailed 1890 pounds, included: Gar
rison, $500; Thomson, 1,400; Cleve-
land, 2,075; Terrell, 1899; Twining,
