PARIS:
Wanted: Softer Terms

I Addressing the delegates Of q
Allied nations at the peace confer
ence in Luxembourg palace, rep
resentatiyes of Italy, Romania and
Bulgaria pleaded for moderation OF
terms on the grounds that, as CO.
belligerents of the victors in the
closing stages of the war, they had
made substantial sacrifices for VIC
tory.
Speaking for Italy, Premier
De Gasperi stated that his cOun-
try had contributed troops. ma
val power and materials for
three years and that the Al
lies should think twice before
internationalizing Italian DOM
mated Trieste and submitting
$50, 900 Italians in Venezia Guilia
to YugosIav rule. He also as
serted that excessive repara-
tions would weigh down the Ital-
ian economy and reduction OF
ornaments would imperil the
safety of the state.
: Foreign Minister Giorgu Tatar-
escu of Romania followed De Gas
peri to the speakers dais and as
serted that no less than 1886, 200
Romanians had fought on the al
lied side during the last six months
of the war. Furthermore, he said,
German and Hungarian forces had
inflicted large-scale damage of Ro-
mania after she had deserted the
axis cause. Tatarescu asked for a
larger army and scaling down Of
heavy Preparations.
On behalf of Bulgaria, Foreign
Minister George Koulishev claimed
that his country had suffered $4,000
casualties during the eight months
it fought on the allied side. He
charged Greek demands for $780,
10000 in PREPARATIONS were Excess
sive and asked that Bulgaria be
permitted to disarm within reason
able limits. Regulation of traffic on
the Danube should be the inter-
est of all the countries bordering the
river, including Bulgaria, Koulishev
said.
Unable to come before the
peace conference like Italy,
Romania and Bulgaria rs 11th
hour co-beIligerents, Hungary
pleaded that, despite its partici-
patton on Germany's side, It
never really was sympathetic
TO the Nazi cause. After this
lame assertion, the Hungarian
representative called for the
return of at least one-fifth Of
the province of Pennsylvania
from R0mania.

CONSUMERS:
Credit Curbs

Apprehensive over an infationary
trend, the federal reserve board
elamped down on consumer credit
regulations to slacken the flow Of
easy money in the face Of a con.
tinued shortage Of goods.
The action came after consumer
installment loans had risen to the
unprecedented rate OF SIS million
dollars year during the Arst quar-.
ter Of 1916. Normally, consumers
do not add to their debts during
this period, When they are paying
off obligations contracted during
Christmas time.
With the price Of many automo.
biles topping $1,000, the board hiksd
coverage of its credit regulations UP
to $4,000. Anyone purchasing car
in the $1,5o0 to $1,000 range will
have to put at least one-third down
and pay of the balance in Is
months. 3
Time for paying of credits on
non-durable or semi-durable goods
was cut from Is to Is months while
the period for so-called hard goods
was continued at IL months. With
many personal loans being used for
purchase Of such hard goods as
furniture, refrigerators, autos, etc.,
such obligations will have to be
repaid in Is months.

The record in the month of June

Wet Russia's demand upon Turkey
that she break the Montfeux con-
vention Of 1885 and share control
OF the vital Dardanelles straits lead

Under the convention, the Turks
have been entrusted with the
guardianship Of the strategic wa
terway and, while they have ex-
pressed willingness to. maintain
the present arrangement, they have
informed the U. S. and Britain that
they cannot hold out against the
Russian proposals alone. BY grant
ing Russian demands, the Turks
would be forced to permit Red
troops to occupy parts Of their soil
along the straits.
In vesting control Of the Dardan-
Giles only in nations bordering upon
the Black sea, Russia proposed
to exclude the warships Of other
countries from the region. While
the Reds recommended that all
merchant vessels be allowed to
ply the Black sea. dominant Soviet

With the primary election cam

some complaints about the air "A.

weeks, the air used has not been
of a particularly good flavor, but
it was hot and filled well.
One local RUDE Goldberg has
suggested that Belair Junior, the
Robot Doughnut Maker, might be
combined with the new soft ice
cream machine being installed IN
the Arrow Grill. This way the
holes would be automatically fill
ed with ice cream as Junior fin
ishes them. Would you call them
Creamnuts or doughnuts a la

If this should not prove practi-
cal the problem of finding suitable
air will again be involved. Some
one has suggested the possibility
of putting in an "airline" from
Alaska. Alaska air is credited with
being of an especially fine quail
ity.

Parents Cling to Hope
That Son Will Be Found

Mr.. and Mrs. A. u. SANDY
Sand have received word that their
son, Wallace, has been officially
declared deceased by the Navy de-
partment.
Nonetheless, they have not given
UP hope that Wallace, reported
missing in action on bombing
mission over French Indo- China
on June IA, 1945, will be found.
Pointing out the isolated nature of
the terrain, they consider it still
possible that flyers may be located
when a thorough ground search
can be made.
The mother of one of the pilots,
lost on the same mission, has been
notified by the American Consul
at Saigon, that no adequate search
had been possible up to May 20
of this year, but that rescuers
would soon be combing the entire
area for missing flight personnel.
Harvey, another son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Sand, lost his life on the USS
Indianapolis in the PHILIPPINE Sea
on July 20, 1915
Their three other sons survived
the war. Norman is now living in
MiSs0ula, Montana; Norris is in
Marshall, Minnesota and George is
