BILE but the way to stay out OF
trouble?
Vandenberg-That Is my view,
Mr.. Cushing. Let me remind you
of the recent unhappy instance
when Yugoslavs shot down half a
dozen American flyers. Do you
think it would have encouraged
peace and a just regard for the
dignity and the honor of the United
States If we had wiggled and wob-
bled and stalled In the presence OF
that challenge? Certainly not. 1t
would merely have encouraged con-
tempt and cumulative trouble.
So we sent Yugoslavia that famous
48-hour note which, in other days.
would have been called an "ulti-
mat,Im',: and Yueoslavia, to her
great credit, made prompt and hon
orable and satisfactory reply. the
offense will not be repeated.
This is the road to peace.
And 1 want to call your attention
to a glorious fact--a flaming beacon
of f1ope-in this connection. WHAT
was the alternative we named as
the price of noncompliance with
L our 48-hour note? Was 1t war
as 1t would have been in days gone
by. It was not. 1t was a promise
to summon the defendant to the bar
of the United Nations to confront
the organized conscience OF the
world. - If that doesn't symbol
ize progress toward peace, I do not
know what could. -
u. N. Declared Hope Of World.
Imperfect as the Security Council
and the General Assembly OF the
United Nations may be, Mr.. Cush-
ing, they are the justified hope OF
the world. They provide a medium
of contact where we can all come
to know each other better: where,
perhaps, we can learn to "live and
let live; and where, If the unhappy
climax requires, we can moblllze
the vast majority of mankind
against the next aggressor who
threatens peace and security and
human rights and fundamental free
doms
Who shall say that the agencies
of the United Nations cannot bridge
the gap between the east and west!
The United Nations will continue
to have plenty of growing pains
But, I repeat, their effective evo-
luton is the hope of the world
and the darker gathering clouds
may be, the greater the need fol
this sunshine to break through.
And may I just add this persona
word, Mr.. Cushing? 1t is because
think organized security and peace
with Justice are the supreme prayer
of men and women everywhere. en-
phatically including our own United
States; it is for this reason thai
am again returning next Monday
to sit once more as an American
representative in the General AS
sembly - despite the well-knowr
personal reasons why I might pre-
fer to be in Michigan the next twt
weeks.
Cushing-T think, Senator, th'
people of Michigan will understand
You bring us hope even as you brint
us warning. I am sure we are al

Does Not Mention Wallace.
In describing the complex prob
lens that arose in Paris, Senator
Vandenberg said that. of course,
there is confusion. This would be
inevitable, he said, even though
there were no missionaries of con-
fusion here at home" =
He asked his listeners to remem-
ber that, after all. it took five years
to tear the world apart 1t is not
surprising that it takes that long
to putsit together again.
Senator Vandenberg did not men,
tion Henry A. Wallace. but his
speech dealt with some of the
points raised by Mr.. Wallace in his
break with the administration over
foreign policy. Mr.. Wallace de-
plored what he called a "get-tough-
with Russia policy" and also took
issue with the American plan for
atomic bomb control.
Atomic Guarantees Needed.
Referring to control of atomic
bombs, Senator Vandenberg noted
that we possess the exclusive secret
for perhaps five more years but
offer to scrap them all and abandon
our monopoly forever "in return for
worldwide controls which shall
guarantee civilization against all
atomic bombs. anywhere, any time,
from any source, anywhere on
earth"
TT is the greatest demonstration
of humane and unselfish vision
since time began" he asserted. do
you call that getting tough? If
so, how do we escape this charge?
BY Immediately giving away our
atomic know-how without depend
able guarantees against bad faith?
would consider that to be sheer
lunacy. I hasten to add that 1t
also would be lunacy not to persist
in striving for a mutual accord, il
possible, to prevent an ultimate
race In atomic arms.
i mo, getting tough is not the def
milton. Friendly firmness' is the
correct phrase. Friendly firmness-
and I strive for both. Thus, I be-
lieve I am striving for true peace. "
| Asked About Roosevelt Policy.
The interviewer asked Senator
Vandenberg if he cared to comment
on the claim of some partisan ora
tors" that present bipartisan for
eign policy no longer follows the
Franklin D. Roosevelt pattern.
We'll, that depends upon what
you mean by the Roosevelt pat

mean the Roosevelt pattern as orig

Charter, I should say that we are

after it was partially scrapped, by
. the late President himself at Malta,
and after subsequent defaults by its

PRESIDENT STICKS
TO JEWISH STAND
Letter To Attlee Rejects
British Plea OF Jeopardy
To Holy Land

LONDON, Oct. 11.-tP-An au-
thoritative our said Friday
President Truman in his latest let
ter to Prime Minister Attlee stood
pat on his call for immediate Jew
ish immigration into Palestine and
had rejected Britain's assertion
that the request ''jeopardized"
Holy Land negotiations.
The same source disclosed that
Prime Minister Attlee, in a pointed
letter to Truman had traced the
record of the Presidents advice"
on Palestine against the back
ground of British action and diff
ficulties" there.
The disclosure pointed up a
general British feeling, expressed
III government circles as we'll as
@e press, that the United States
was free with advice but stingy
with constructive help in a prob
lem of more direct concern to Bri-
tain than to the Truman admins
tration.
Truman's latest letter to Attlee,
an informant said, renewed a plea
TO "a program of immediate" ac-
ton on immigration, now at a
standstill, and recalled that the
President had been urging such &C
ton since September, 1915.
The President was said to have
emphasized that Europe's Jews
had gone through a terrible or
deal'' before and during the war
and that virtually nothing" had
been done to alleviate their condi-
ton since the war.
If immigration is deferred I'M
til Dec. 16 when the London Con-
ference on Palestine is scheduled
to resume, the President was said
to have remarked, Is months
would have elapsed since the Presi-
Dental investigator, Earl Harrison,
first reported on the plight of
Europe's Jews.

man said he had replied to Att
lees letter but said he would not

CARVER APPEAL
GOES TO CAPITAL

A major factor in the Civilian
Production Administrations recent
refusal to issue a permit to the
P. E. Carver company to build a
$125, 600 shirt factory here was the
prospect that the Carver plant
would employ a small proportion of
masculine labor, Chester E. En-
sign, of Greensboro, state CPA di-
rector, indicated yesterday.
1--WE would have looked upon it
(the Carver plant) as more es-
sential and non-deferrable if only
men were to have been hired" En-
sign declared.
The Carver company's appeal
from the state Offices rejection OF
its application has been forwarded
to CPA officials in Washington,
Ensign said.
Wilmington, he indicated, is re-
questing critical materials which
the CPA believes could only be al
lowed this section at the cost of
many communities with more seri-
u housing problems.
He cited Clinton as one COM
munity which is using all available
material for direct housing con-
struction. Material now allotted
to programs like Clinton's might
have to be diverted to Wilmington
If this city's requests for what the
CPA considers ~non-essential build
ing were allowed, he declared.
