supremely difficult problem of Z
German settlement.

Supremacy difficult problem of a
German settlement.
Mr.. Byrnes restated more pre-
cisely and more persuasively than
ever before his proposal for a
treaty ito keep Germany disarmed
and demilitarized for forty years"
Yet this is at best, I venture to
say, a way of reinsuring a German
settlement, and at worst it might
!be treated by many in this coun-
try as a substitute for a settlement.
We must remember that no states
man can in fact commit his gov
eminent to such vigilant and un-
hesitating action abroad, as Mr..
IByrnes promised, over a period of
forty years. In forty years it will
be 1886, and no one now alive can
say, as precisely as Mr.. Byrnes
did, what engineer inspectors
and "Allied representatives. and
"bombers from France, Britain,
the United States or the Soviet I'm
ion'' will do lin twenty-four hours"
after violations are discovered''
in 1856 and 1866 and 1876.
The truth is that if tbs kind OF
supervision is necessary for forty
years, it will mean that we have
failed to make a settlement with
Germany. Only if Germany has
been reconstructed in such a way
that the Germans who do not wish
to commit aggression are able to
deal with the Germans who do,
can such a treaty as Mr.. Byrnes is
proposing be effective. For then
the treaty wall not profess to be
the guaranty Of German pacifism.
1t will mean that the Allies have
the right and the duty to support
the German constitution and those
Germans who themselves are loyal
to that constitution, and may need
support in UNFOLDING it.

The story also says the skeleton

May See Upwards OF
10000 Wednesday

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6-RCH
the weather is good and the moon
not too bright, the United States
will witness n OF natures great
est showers of shooting stars
Wednesday night.
Under proper conditions it may
be possible to see as many as 49,
600 of them in two hours.
The phenomenon of the shoot
ing stars" - or meteors = will be
due to the fact that earth will
pass only 131, 900 miles from the
path of a comet and we'll get in
on the celestial fireworks in the
comets wake. GAS astronomical
mileage goes, 131, 900 miles is vir-
tually just across the street.)
The comet, known as the Giaco-
bini-Zinner comet, shows up on
telescopes every six and a half
years. Like all comets, it has a
nucleus Of solid particles ranging
IL size from specks Of dust to
eumps Of stone ard iron as big as
aahouse.
The Institute News Of Philadel-
phla's Franklin instute says that
these particles. or meteors, become
scattered for distances Of many
miles on all sides of the comet.
Institute scientists say that on
Oct. 9, 1888. Europe was treated
to a super show OF meteors from
this comet. The United States
missed the show then because it
was daylight here.
At that time, says the institute,
the earth came no closer than
SOC. 900 miles of the comets path,
compared with the 131, 900 miles
this year. Moreover, the comet it.
self already was 80 days away,
compared with eight days for this
years show.
Thus the set-up is better this
year, but there is one major hitch.

in Japan as other political groups,
Council members were discuss
ing an anonymous note protesting
various Allied policies when Atche-
son looked straight across the table
at 1t. Gen. Kuzma Derevyanko and
said:
Constitutes Attack
cit seems to me that it (the
note) constitutes essentially an at
tack upon the present Japanese
government. AS that government
has resigned, and is carrying on
only pending formation of a new
government, the attack seems
pointless and the document ac-
cordingly seems merely to be an
attempt to spread communistic
propaganda"
81 don't need to tell you," he
said, that the United States does
not favor communism-either in
the United States nor Japan"
New Activities
Atcheson said he believed the
control council should direct its
activities toward the democratiza'
ton of Japan.
1T is not consistent with Cur
clear duty in that respect for any
council member to give support
in public meetings of the council
or otherwise-to any one Japanese
political party" he declared.
Atcheson said translators had in
formed him the letter in question
had been written by persons other
than japanese, and that it had not
been signed with a "chop' in &C
cordance with Japanese custom.
Derevyanko suggested earlier
that former Japanese army Off

working on cooperative farms,
which once were airfields.
