h-BOMB DISPUTE

Sandy-haired Undersecretary of State Dean Acheson and the new Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, David Lilienthal, have their dutch up over Bernie Bar uch's A-bomb finagling
 They are charging privately that Baruch is seriously endangering the peace of the world Both Ache son and Lilienthal have pointed out to Secretary Byrnes that Molotoy has already met every requirement. set down ill the Acheson-L -Lilienthal report in the way of inspection
 However, the Russians don't want to go as far as Baruch wants. Ach- esCn-Lilienthal claim Baruch is more interested in destroying the veto power than in protecting the world against the atomic bomb. A showdown is brewing.

GOAL OPERATORS 10 MAKE NO CONTRACT UNTIL COURT ACTION

WASHINGTON, Dec. PA sharp split among soft coal operators over whether to negotiate now for new contract with John L. Lewis dash cd hopes today for a quick nation w.de peace between the industry and it's miners.
 Producers whose pits yield 50 per- cent of the country's coal held themselves ready to deal with the United Mine Workers chief "at any convenient date" without waiting for a Supreme Court decision on his legal troubles arising from the November walkout.
 But the powerful southern coal Producers Association, whose mines produce @ third of the 600000,000- ten annual supply, broke away from the majority with a decision to hold aloof until the courts have had their say.
 Far western mine owners indicat- ed they would go along with the Southerners.

IRON CURTAIN STAYS DOWN

Assistant Secretary of State Bill Benton, who has tried desperately to lift the iron curtain, recently was prevented by the Russians from visiting Moscow
 Benton was scheduled to fly to Moscow with Chester Bowles, his cid advertising partner, two weeks ago. But the Russians found Ben ton had only AS hours in which to make the trip, let him get as far as Berlin, then stalled him for 48 hours, claiming Moscow weather made it impossible for his plane to land
 Finally, Benton went back to Paris, where he checked by coded cable with the American Embassy in Moscow, found that the weather in Russia had been perfect during the time he was being barred from the Soviet capital.
 Notc-Bcnton, who is in charge of S,ate Department information, has tried to beam radio broadcasts into Russia in order to give the Russian people the real truth about the USA. Many Russians don't even know that the American Army and Navy participated in the wal against Japan.

CHRISTMAS, 1946

Two thousand years ago @ Child was born in humble surroundings in the town of Bethlehem, and the event was the beginning of new spirit that was to spread as a flame to all corners of the world breaking oown the barriers of the stagnant ancient world to give men everywhere hope and strength and bonds of fellowship.
 The Christian ethc entails the Fatherhood Of God and the brotherhood of man, but how far the world has been from attaining this ideal is attested by the last five years of strife and struggle. Leaders who worshped false gods in place of the true God brought humanity to such pass and it E clear that the hope of keeping the flame alive is the hope that neF leaders will assert their leadership along the right path.
 But already nations who worked side by side to defeat the aggressor toaltarian states now fall to agree in setting up the machinery for peaceful world National selfishness which is just as important as individual selfishness, has not been abandoned and that is the threat peaceful future. There can be no brotherhood of without brotherhood ot nations The lesson was written long ago in the Christmas story Ye are all of another. To make this creed live again our lives would be way of following the star that shown the shepherds as they watched their focks on the Bethlehem hillside and in the morning led the wise to the inn in the town

T want to advise my friend from Ohio that I know something about investigating myself"
 Then he went on, tongue-in- tneek, to suggest that the Republi- cans should investigate every Dem ocratic Senator elected in Novem- Der, since, according to the COP view, they could not possibly have heen elected without some ire gularity
 Truman also said he had tried to seek the advice of Republican lead CTS.
 But he added with a helpless look around the room at the varie- gated array of rivals including Sen- ators Taft, White and Vandenberg, Joe Martin, Governor Dewey. Sen ator- elect Bricker and Minnesota $ ex-Governor Stassen, there are so many leaders
 In serious vein, Truman outlined a six-point program for the Re publican Congress-including cut ting the budget, reduction of taxes curtailing the national debt am algamation of the Army and Navy and challenged the Republicans to help him put them across.
 Perhaps his neatest barb was aimed at Rhodes scholar Senator Fulbright o1 Arkansas who pro- posed that the President resign and let the Republicans take over Full reign for the next two years Without mentioning Fulbrighti name, he turned to the British Ambassador and said:
 I've come to the conclusion, MT Ambassador, that it's a mistake tC send our young men to Oxford tt study. A land college in Ohio i! much better"

MERRY-GO-ROUND

Truman laughed good-naturedly at the skits aimed against his Ad-
 ministration. The scene in which the Democratic high command was at sea in a storm listening to the President play the piano off-key seemed to tickle him immensely. Whenever the piano-player struck a sour note, he roared. Another who enjoyed the dinner was Tom Dewey Last year Dewey made an excellent speech. This year he sat back and heard his old -presi- dential running mate whom he has never liked, make a terrible speech. One thing in Bricker's speech which struck the sourest note was his ridicule Of Repuhlican-Demo- cratic cooperation Al a time when the nation faces continued domestic crisis, BrickeI, in mean and nasty

CAPITAL CHAFF

The coal strike may seriously af- feet next years potato and apple crops, according to the Department of Agriculture. The trouble is that the shortage of coal tar curtailed supplies of insecticides, which are needed to fight such crop pests as the chinch bug, the European corn borer, the coddling moth, and the potato bug. :. One reason for vet erans housing slowness has just been uncovered by hard working Representative Robertson of North Dakota. He is making sweeping investigation of the hoarding of scarce building materials on the west coast, especially the big lum- Der interests.
