Some 1000 years ago Chinese diplo-
mat advised his sovereign: IT, in case
Of strained relations with another prince,
his emissaries come to you with talk of
peace but show no disposition to make
solid commitments, prepare for war"
The truth OF this observation was
demonstrated at Pearl Harbor.
Marshal Tito's speech in Belgrade
Monday was not a peace speech, though
in 1t he spoke Of peace. 1t was war
speech. It came after q whole series
of incidents and insults-the trial OF
Draja Mikhailovich being as clearly
directed against the United States as
against the Chetniks-and after strong
representations had been made by the
United States Government regarding
the deliberate shooting down Of un-
armed American flyers in passenger
planes. It contained not . hint of
apology, but defended the attacks, an
other of which occurred subsequent to
the first American note. The United
States Government then sent an ulti-
matum, demanding release of such OF
our flyers as may still be alive, apologies,
compensation, and indications OF will
to reform.
As I write it looks as though Marshal
Tito would back down. But we should
be warned that Marshal Tito has many
times received American protests, ex-
pressed regrets, given solemn assurances
Of changed conduct even in writing, and
then resumed his old ways. He delib-
erately invited that ultimatum, perhaps
to test our temper. The attack Of August
10, following the already protested at
tack OF August 8, was conscious provo
cation, supported by his breath-taking
arrogant admission: II have been my
self an eyewitness Of this event"
Taking into account the whole con-
tent Of the speech-so reminiscent of
the speeches Of Hitler, who announced
his war plans. thus, in speeches to his
nation, and always branded the poten-
tial victim as the aggressor-one must
believe that Marshal Tito has provoked
a most transparent incident to force
showdown.
The most significant passages do not,
In reality, deal with the airplane Incl
dents. The incidents are incidental to
providing Marshal Tito with platform
for defiance on the main aims which he
declares will be realized even at the
price of peace. eyes, we want peace,
but not at any price. 80 Such a peace
a. is wanted by those who wish to
achieve their imperialist aims"
Leaving out Of account the peculiar
jargonized double-tak Of Communism,
which always needs . translator, the
peace that Marshal Tito makes the

k-Yuqosluv Tension

Recall by his government of the
Yugoslav Minister to Athens comes
as the climax to a whole series Of
diplomatic exchanges arising out Of
various incidents which have caused
increasing tension between the two
nations. The Yugoslav side of the
controversy is set forth in an official
statement which begins with an ex-
preston Of "disapproval" concern
ing the way the Greek government
conducts its affairs. After this gen.
eralization there comes 4 list of
specific charges, including protest
against alleged slanderous attacks
in the Greek press against Marshal
Tito and his regime. a protest
against statement by the Governor
Of Greek Macedonia confirming re-
ports Of lawless activities by partisan
bands there fomented in Yugoslavia,
and charge that the Greek author
tiles are not aiding in the salvage OF
a Yugoslav ship sunk by the Ger
mans during the war in Greek
waters.
The Yugoslav charges have been
formally answered ~ the Greek
Deputy Foreign Minister, beginning
with an assertion that the Greek
government has been entirely CO.
operative with the Yugoslavs, that
the Governor in question was dis
ciplined for his remarks, and that
action has been taken against Ger
tain anti-Yugoslav newspaper ut
terances, insofar as such action Is
compatible with the freedom of the
press prevailing in Greece" while
calling attention to the fact that no
attempt has been made by Athens to
call Belgrade to account for analo-
gous anti-Greek articles in Yugoslav
newspapers, albeit it should be re-
called that the Yugoslav press is
completely under official direction
and control. As for the ship Incl
dent, Athens asserts that all salvage
efforts have been facilitated.
The evidence tends to support the

Greek contention and to indicate
t. this Yugoslav gesture Is merely
F OF the pressure campaign
waged for months against Greece,
not merely by Yugoslavia but also by
Albania and Bulgaria, with Moscow
pretty obviously in the background,
pulling the strings. Just what the
recall OF the Yugoslav Minister and
the attendant Belgrade bill Of COM
plant signifies practically remains
to be seen.

A Sound Investment
: Ssh sunday Morning edition.
ASH1N G TON, ID. C.

IN MS study OF SlX-year con-
struction program. Engineer Com
missioner Young congratulates the
District Recreation Board and the
Superintendent of Recreation for
their orderly planning for future
development and for the efficient
organization of the city's recrea-
tional facilities.
The Star believes the commenda-
ton is merited. In the four years
since the board was created, efficient
and unified administration of rec
reation-theretofore divided between
a number of independent agencies
has produced splendid results. not
the least of which Is agreement on
the steps which must be taken to
bring the system up to standards
which are so desirable and. II the
money is forthcoming, so easily at
tainable in Washington.
We are spending now on recrea-
ton relatively small amount, COM
pared, for example, with expendi-
lures on education and public health.
This is not due so much to reluc-
tance on the part OF budgeting and
appropriation authorities to make
the money available as 1t is to the
fact that. generally speaking, more
money has gone into the purchase
of land for ultimate recreational use
than into its proper development for
the same purpose. General Young
uses an apt phrase in describing the
Recreation Board as land poor"
Thus, Of twenty-six major units or
centers planned for the city (such
as the fine development at Bright
wood only sixteen have been estab-
lished and are operating full time;
two are operating part time; five
are acquired but not in operation
and three are yet to be bought. OF
the 136 smaller units contemplated,
there are f1fty-two which have been
acquired but are not in operation
and eleven are yet to be acquired.
And of the ninety-one regular units
now being operated, none OF them is
fully completed. Instead Of bringing
any one Of them to perfection, the
board has followed a wise policy OF
doing what 1t can over as wide an
area as possible.
The boards program now Is to
improve existing units before acquir-
ing new ones, but the improvements
projected for the near future will
increase the annual running ex-
penses from about 100000 now to
an estimated 100000 In 1852.
These expenses are in addition to
funds for construction and acquisi-
ton OF land. They seem excessive
now, principally because we have
Jagged so far behind in the provi-
sion OF really adequate recreational
facilities for a city of this size.
Money spent for recreation, and in
accordance with an orderly plan
that takes into account the needs
Of the different sections of the city
is well spent. We have in Washing
ton one Of the finest and most beau
tiful park systems In the world. But
we need to augment it with facilities
that not only are pleasing to the eye
but are widely usable and used for
bodybuilding health-giving exercise
and play for old and young alike.

The Test Averted

The State Departments qualified
satisfaction with Yugoslavias re-
sponse to our ultimatum of August
Il does not constitute a final settle
ment of the case. but it rules out the
possibility of an immediate show
down test before the Security Coun-
Gil of the United Nations. Perhaps
such showdown will have to come
sooner or later. but at this particu-
lar moment, with the passions, Bit
terness and taut nerves of the Sec
ond World War still looming large in
international relations, 1t might
easily have placed a fatal strain not
merely on the peace conference at
Paris but on the U. N. itself.
AS matters stand, unless the Tito
government shifts back to an
unreasonable and provocative posi-
tion, the case will not be carried to
the Security Council. Had the United
States been obliged to do that at this
time, the United Nations would have
been brought face to face with its
most crucial test to data test far
more significant and dangerous.
than any yet posed, including the
new one involving Greece and the
Ukrainian Soviet Republic. The
Ukraine, acting independently" of
Moscow, has merely resurrected a
familiar Russian charge namely,
that the Greeks, with British con-
nivance, are endangering peace in
the Balkans. But since both Greece
and Britain welcome an investiga-
tion, since there is little or no likeli-
hood that any great power will veto
a consideration OF the complaint,
and since the complaint itself has
the earmarks OF being diversionary
maneuver related either to our dis
pute with Yugoslavia or the treaty-
making pressures at Paris, there is
not much chance that this will criti-
cally strain the U. N. The story
would be different, however, If the
Tito government had forced our
hand, for then there would have
been the probability OF Russia block
Ing any move regarding charges
against its satellite.
In that case, paralyzed by the veto
OF one member, the United Nations
might have found it difficult to sur
vive and the antagonism between
the western Allies and the Soviet-led
bloc would have become deeper and
more ixed than ever, with ourselves
perhaps resorting to forceful meas
ures to redress our grievances and
uphold American honor. The fate
ful test, Of course, may have to be
faced some day, but the fact that it
has been avoided now offers the
hope, at least, that no country
east or west-wants it at this time,
IN which event the young U. N. is
given chance to establish its roots
and attain the strength and expert
ence it must have If it is ever to be
an organization genuinely equipped
to maintain the peace OF the world.

Stealing Is Stealing

To the Editor Of The star:
No wonder there's juvenile delin-
quency problem. I'm thankful my son
Isn't old enough to read the newspaper
account of the airplane stolen from
Queens Chapel Airport. No censuring
at all. The reporters have not only
condoned the act; they've made hero
of the boy, surrounding him with CLAM

vile and evil thing to do-whether
1t be a 17-year-old boy joyriding in
somebody else's plane, or a hardened
man kidnapping the Lindbergh baby.
Both are menaces to society.
