PATIENT BUT FIRM POLICY
 IS DIRECTED
Report on Paris Conference Affirms Hope for
 Just Peace

WASHINGTON, Oct 19-Secre- tary of State Byrnes pointed the United States along patient but firm foreign policy course with Russia today, declaring that this country will neither yield to all de- mands of other nations nor expect them to yield to all of ours.
 Vcicing concern over the con- tinued if not increasing tension be- tween us and the Soviet Union Byrnes urged rejection of the thoughts that make armed conflict inevitable
 Tt is entirely possible he said in a radio report last night on the Paris conference, the failure or in- ability of the Soviet leaders to rid themselves of that belief lies at the very root of our difficulties
 His address. obviously aimed at Moscow as well as his home aud fence, acknowledged Byrne's distress over war talk which is "throttling the economic recovery of Europe, but affirmed his hope that a just peace can be attained without one sided concessions,
 ByrneS said this nation will stand "irrevccably" behind the right ot every people to organize their econ omic and political destiny through the freest possible expression of their collective will
 Patient But Firm
 "In following those policies we have been criticized at time for be- ing too soft" and at times for be- ing too tough I dislike both terms. Neither describes our earnest efforts to be patient but firm"
 Wallace commented later: After listening to the speech of the Secre- tary of State am more certain than ever that we must adopt a real American foreign policy. I am glad that he has progressed since his Stuttgart speech (warning Ger many must be neither pawn or partner in any power struggle be- tween East and Vest
 T sincerely nope that further progress will be made and that the Secretary of State will eventually realize that the American people demand justice, good neighborliness and peace in the world"
 Byrnes expressed "bewilderment' at Russian accusations. that the United States enriched itself dur ing the war" and now seeks ito en- slave Europe economically.
 Coming from any state these charges would be regrettable to us,' . he said. They are particularly re- grettable when they are made by the Soviet government to whom we advanced more than ten billion dol- lars of lend lease during the war and with whom we want to be friendly in time of peace
