Main Peace Treaty Battle
Forecast Over German Issue

negotiators like outright reputation OF
the agreement Russia signed at Potsdam
last summer.
Right from the start, the United
States has argued for peace plan that
would re-educate the German nation.
The main points have been these:
/. That during the occupation Ger
many would be run as a single business
enterprise so that she could begin to
foot her own bills for food and raw
materials.
2. German industry would be cut back
so that war plants could be torn down
and so that factories that could be used
for war, such as steel, would be re-
duced to what Germans need for peace
full living.
8. Reparations would be taken pri-
marily from existing wealth so that
payments wouldn't be strung out too
long.
That. plan grew out of World War I
experiences. Then reparations were
dragged out long enough to feed German
vengeance. Further, Germans were not
only permitted to keep their war factor
les, but they expanded them with the
aid OF Anglo-American investments.
At Potsdam the Big Three agreed to
take reparations as percentage OF

and largest political contributions in

and largest political contributions in
these districts.
There is danger that the election will
not be decided by important domestic
and international issues or the qualifl-
cations of the men seeking Office. Weari-
ness with the IA years of exciting DEM
ocratic government from Washington
and personal annoyances over household
and industrial shortages, particularly
meat, are heard more often in CAM
paign oratory and voters conversations
than the need for world peace through
the United Nations, for settlement OF
the urgent labor problems and for I'M
proving the general human welfare.
Democrats are counting heavily on
the Roosevelt record of social legisla-
ton and the fact that the average man
has more money in his pocket and in the
bank than ever before. Specifically they
are relying on the loyalty Of organized
labor to the Democratic Party and on
the discipline of the party machines
in the large cities.
Republicans are using all DEVICES at
hand to persuade the voters that a
confused administration in Washington
is responsible for preventing return
to an envisioned free enterprise" world
in which everybody would enjoy q satis-
factory house, full stomach and q
complete wardrobe at prices within the
reach of all. Little attention is given to
the fact that no other country has yet
made the transition from war to peace.
Materialistic as these issues are. the

Bv Siqrid Arne

The main peace-treaty writing bout
is due to open in New York in Novem-
ber. The Foreign Ministers of the Big
Four-the United States, Great Britain,
Russia and France-plan to sit down
then to figure out what they want of
Germany.
The fact that it is Germany is enough
alone to make the meeting a main bout.
But now it begins to look as though
United States-U. S. S. R. differences
are going to be wilder and woollier than
they were in Paris over the lesser enemy
states.
This is what the Russians are expect
ed to demand (taken from statements
of various Russian Foreign Office men
the past year.:
/. Reparations of $4,000, 100000 from
Germany.
2. An important part of reparations
to come out of what the Germans are
manufacturing. Russia would probably
manage to keep numerous troops in
Germany to be sure of getting the goods.
3. Russia will probably argue for
keeping as many German factories going
as possible to get the 10 billion in prod
ucts.
Ali Of that looks to the United States

this campaign has Influenced many, If
any, independent voters, the middle
group that will really decide the elec-
tions. On the other hand, the organized
labor groups are not working as hard
at getting out the vote as when their
idol, Franklin D. Roosevelt, was
candidate.
In some areas the unofficial polls
have frightened the Democrats and are
so heavily antiadministration that the
Republicans are afraid to believe them.
Independents Hold Key.
The most frequently heard criticism
of Truman is that "he is not big enough
for the job" Would the voter say the
same thing about each of the potential
Republican candidates for that job?
There is always dissatisfaction with
the Washington administration. This
year 1t is more evident and appears to
have broader base than in previous
elections, with 1882 an exception.
There could be an antiadn1inistratio
groundswell next month. If so, part of
1t Will come from personal mconVeu-
fences over minor matters and part from
the apathy of citizens who will not
take time to go to the polls. Organiza-
ton Republicans and organization
Democrats are going to vote their regu-
lar tickets. The result will be deter
mined by the millions OF independent
voters, who have one of their best OPP
portunities to decide the makeup of the
Eightieth Congress, which will convene
January 3.
The citizen who does not vote Novem-
Der will have no legitimate complaint
If the Eightieth Congress is no more to
his liking than was the distraught Sew
enty-ninth.

existing wealth rather than any set
amount such as $4,000 000, 900.
Here's how the percentage formula
was set:
Russia was to take reparations out
of the zones she occupied and could
have any German assets she found
in the Balkans.
She was also to get 10 percent OF
the industrial equipment that was to
be torn down in Western Germany at
no cost and a further Is per cent for
which she was to pay in shipments OF
food, coal and other products.
The other Allies could share the rest
of the dismantled Western zone fac
tory equipment and whatever other
German assets were found in the rest

Wounded Express Service

A transcontinental air express
ambulance service, with a main line
running across the continent and
feeder lines running north and south
from it, has been inaugurated by
the Naval Air Transport Service
commander, the Navy announced
last night.
Planes of the service are used to
move convalescent Navy, Marine
Corps and Army personnel to med
ical centers for specialized treat
ment and to hospitals near their
homes.
The Navy said it is continuing air
travel for the hospitalized because
evacuation of thousands of casual
ties from the Pacific and European
battle fronts proved that airplanes
generally are easier on patients for
long journeys than trains or ships.
Giant four-engine R5D Skymasters
are used and twin-engined RAD
Skytrain transports on the north
and south connecting runs. The
transcontinental run originates on
the East Coast at the Patuxent

with home purchases.
In a statement, A. E. Casgrain,

housing shortage, many veterans
are purchasing homes on an inflated
market at prices far in excess of
their ability to pay he said.

-visory Council to Housing Admin

Present shortages in lumber,
brick and other critical materials
will be eased," the council said.

Jones and Fish 10 Give
Arguments tomorrow
Against British Loan

Opponents Of the proposed g..
750, ,000, 900 British loan, spearheadeo
by former Secretary Of Commerce
Jesse Jones and Hamilton Fish, for
mer member of Congress from New
York, tomorrow will begin presenta-
tion Of their case. III
Mr.. Fish will be the first opposi.
ton witness before the House Bank
ing Committee. Mr.. Jones, president
of the Houston Chronicle, originally
was scheduled to appear Tuesday
but said in Houston he will be un-
able to be here that day. He saio
he might appear later in the week
The committee probably will vote
late this week on the legislation
ratifying the transaction. The bill
then will move to the House floor
where administration leaders claim
enough votes to pass it. The Senate
already has approved the legisla-
ton.
Mr.. Jones was invited to present
his views to- the committee after he
published an editorial under his
signature titled: "Subsidizing the
British Empire" The editorial said /:
II do not think the proposed
British loan Of $3,750, 900 900 now
before Congress should be made and
do not believe that any good viii
come to the American people, or,
for that matter, to the economy of
the world, from making 1t in its
present form"
He described the proposed loan
as "unbusinesslike" and suggested
an alternative plan whereby Britain
might obtain loan by posting
certain collateral.
Owen j. Roberts, retired justice
of the Supreme Court, completed
the case for the proponents Friday,
declaring the loan is needed to get
the shackles off international trade
and as an aid to world peace.
