a conflict that was not precipitated by the call of a foreign nation"
 Amid the many unsound and Short-Sighted decisions, currently being made by both the American public and many of our Congress- men, the speaker asserted, is opposi- ton to the British loan.
 Britain today is bankrupt. Her mills are silent, her workers are on dole, her ships are rusting. She can re-establish her commerce and her industries on the pound sterling, and deal only with her empire. But let us realize if she takes this ac- tion as last resort, America will lose her biggest customer.
 Should we extend to her this cred- it, her industries and our indus tries will be kept running and work CTS in both nations will enjoy pros perity.
 "There was also q faction in this country, let us recall, who was op- posed to lend-lease. Let us re- member that 1t was British blood and sweat that kept off the enemy until we were able to prepare our- selves and go overseas to fight shoulder -to-shoulder with the AL lies"
 MT. Haskell urged that the sal- aries of Congressmen be raised sub Stantially to eliminate in our na- tional government the vociferous man who augments his income by taking up the fight of the moneyed interests, rather than the good of the people at large.
 ''Their expenses in Washington are heavy, they must maintain 8 double home and have other ex- penditureS. So naturally who do we send to Washington-not the great minds, not the men capable of guid- ing the destiny of a nation, but politicians interested in log-rolling, lobbying. and such"
 The veteran newspaperman, who rose from cub reporter to his pres ent position on The Tribune, urged that the public place more faith in the fact presented in newspapers. Tt is not our job to build up prejudices or to fight for any fac- ton. Our aim is to obtain the facts. confirm them as quickly as possible and publish them. It is true that opinions are presented in editorials. But the news today is so complex, it requires interpreta- ton.
 The assertion that the policy of newspapers is governed by advertis- CTS, MT. Haskell termed ridiculous D '"The newspaper serves merely as another show window for the merchant and nothing more" he said.
 In conclusion, the newspaperman urged his listeners to place faith in the three local newspapers which he described as good ones"
 "They are not publishing facts or stories to sway your opinions. AS 8 newspaperman, I know that space is the most valuable thing they have, and only 8 fraction of the news which pourS into their estab- lishments Is used.
 Therefore they are not using those stories just to i'll the papers. They select the best and the most important stories, and give them

 Washington, April 1.-The poli- tical pundits are spending this day pondering in print President Tru- mans first year in the White House. Only trouble with these ba- bies is that they don't even men ton the unimportant things which somehow add up to be among the most important of all.
 This is what I mean:
 The President took a long look at the dingy walls of his home and applied a coat of glistening white paint He obliged a photographers during a blizzard by tossing snowball at him. When spring ar rived he favored another camera man by assuming a Ferdinand pose, sniffing a flower.
 He ate three Christmas dinners (the same Christmas) in Missouri; a few daws later he ate two lunches in two hours at Kansas City. He mentioned his private shirt crisis and was deluged with white shirts. He got new yacht, equipped with two pianos, and spent as many weekends aboard as he could,
 Dared Flight in Blizzard
 He drove an electric locomotive He flew his four-engined Sacred Cow through a blizzard that grounded commercial air lines. He caused millions of men to struggle with bow ties; then he turned the satorial world inside out by appear ing at the Jackson Day banquet in a dinner jacket and bow tie with silver stripes. Adolph Men jou said he should have stuck to black.
 The President took up horse shoe pitching in his back yard; he uses the gold-plated shoes, his op- ponent the silver. MT. Truman muscled in on chile con carne luncheon at the Senate and ate three bowls of same. AS an art critic, he announced that he did not like the ham and egg variety of paintings.
 He posed for his portrait in oils, in marble, and on film. The latter was a 45-minute ordeal, but the re- suit Gas you doubtless have noted) mostly was smiling. He flabbergast- ed the hired help by getting to work each morning at eight. He pained the Secret Service by ris- ing long before them and taking a stroll through the city. He called the White House the prison" He got out of 1t whenever he could.
 He did his banking personally on 14th Street, where the cops had to hold back the crowds whenever he deposited check. He discharged dozen White House servants as an economy move He went fishing in Washington state, wearing one of the loudest sweaters ever seen off the back of Bing Crosby.
 Killed Wild Onions He had the lawn sprayed with a

occasional slug of whisky: the capi- tap Baptists announced their in- tention of continuing their prayers for him.
 4e accepted all prayers grate- fully. He worried about his weight. He turned out to be a thoroughly human, human-being. All right now, political columnists; you may take it away.

special juice to kill the wild onions, but not the grass. His radio tech nique improved perceptibly. He pinned medals on numerous heroes; pardoned thousands of ex-convicts who also were heroes in the war. He started to remodel the executive of- fees so as to include a radio and television theater.
 His architect had the hold dug when Congress slapped down on the idea. He postponed the atom test, planned to drop in on the Philippines next Fourth of July, and got dressed half a dozen times in a fiat black hat to &C., cept honorary college degrees.

The plaintive cry of many Ameri- cans that this nation is sacrificing its sovereignty by participation in the United Nations was labelled as rubbish born of rlnsound and con- fused thinking by William P. Has, kell, assistant to the president of the New York Herald Tribune last night in an address before the Junior Women'S Club.
 Speaking on the topic, Current Confusions," MT. Haskell asserted that letters which come to editors today as well as national opinion polls indicate that the. Americans, in this vital era in the nations his- tory, are pathetically confused in their thinking, and are arriving at snap judgments He urged that people obtain more of the true facts of the issues, before the na- ton and the world today, and place greater faith in facts published in newspapers.
 Tn his plea for a better under standing of the functions of the United Nations, MT. Haskell point ed out that no sovereignty is sacri- flced by city or state within our democracy by being guided and ruled by the federal government.
 Let us just for 8 minute think what the situation might be here in America, if we did not have world government. Should Con- necticut and Massachusetts disagree about boundaries, each would turn out the national guards, and the state with the strongest and best equipped national guard would win, regardless of right or justice in the matter. Though Connecticut may be in the right she would whimper in her beard if defeated, and bide her time to settle the dispute again by force.
 "The situation is not much dif- ferent in disputes among nations. And 1t shoul d become more and more obvious that the only solution of these disputes is world govern ment and a world court where diS- agreements may be settled not by force, not by arms, but by minds bent on promoting justice and peace"
 In explanation of the function and operations of the United Na- tions in maintaining world peace, Mr. Haskell said
 Let us suppose there is 8 dis- pute between the Argentine and Chile, and Chile appeals to the Se- curity Council to stop the aggres- sion of the Argentine. The case is heard. just as in our courts, and a decision Is made. Should the Ar genuine continue with her desire to use force, sanctions will be in- voked, all communications and sup plies cut off by other nations. Should that procedure not deter the oppressor, then the military forces of the great powers will be used to Subdue the resurrection"
 Here MT. Haskell struck at the short-sighted factions who offer strenuous objections to American military forces being pressed into service to settle foreign disputes.
 "A scrutiny of our national his- tory will reveal that except for Sele Civil War, we never participated in
