Gen. MacArthur's hands should
be left free of any council or COM
mission control and pa, ticularly any
Ueto poWer.
Even Senator Thomas of Utah,
who approves the NJ oscoW agree
ment, admits.
"No one in all history has done
a better job m directing a surrender
and administering an occupied coun-
try than Gen. Macarthur"
IN THE light of these facts, the ap-
Il peasement of Russia by giving her
a voice in the japanese occupation
and a veto over the acts of Gen.
Macarthur is absolutely incompre-
hensible.
Russia will muddle up and OBJ
STRUCT the occupation.
Russia has been given every op-
portunity and Will improve every
opportunity, to whet and safe her ap-
petite for aggression and domination
and usurpation-not only at the ex-
pense of Japan, but with disparage-
ment and detriment for America and
for Britain and China as well.
In short, Russia will TURN THE
JAPANESE OCCUPATION TO
HER OWN ACQUISITIVE ENDS,
which is what she bargained for at
the Moscow conference, and which
will be the sole accomplishment of
the appeasement undertaken there.
The appeasement of Russia at
Moscow s. should be RECOGNIZED
for what it is, and should be
CALLED what it is.
1t is a personal affront to Gen.
Macarthur, and to every American
fighting man who contributed to the
victory over Japan, and especially to
the thousands of American fighting
men who gave their lives for that
victory.
Detroit evening times., 1946-01-07

THE imposition OF an international
Il system of review and veto over
the occupation of Japan, agreed upon
at the Moscow conference, is an ABB
JECT APPEASEMENT of Red Fas-
cist Russia by democratic America
and Great Britain.
There is both irony and tragedy
in this situation.
The irony is in the fact that no
amount of appeasement ever accom-
plished its purpose with Russia, al
though the democratic nations have
often embarrassed and Inundated
themselves by trying - and have al
ways found the method futile, and
productive of confusion and injustice
rather than of order and peace.
The tragedy is in the fact that the
occupation of Japan, hitherto orderly
and satisfactory, will now be almost
surely chaotic and unsatisfactory.
Until now the occupation of ia

cupation, which was proper because
the defeat of Japan was brought
about by AMERICAN VICTORY.
Russian participation did not be-
gin until the closing days of the war,
and was a simple case of Russia
marching into defeated land to
claim a share of the spoils.
American armed forces of land,
sea and air FOUGHT the Pacific
war, WON it, and most reasonably
and efficiently occupied Japan and
administered the defeated land.
Gen. Douglas Macarthur, as
supreme Allied commander, has con-
Quoted the occupation not merely re
markably well, but in a manner with
out historical precedent
Surely, then, it is in the Allied IN

British for the many airdromes and installa-

lend-lease in the days when " were hrst

the German war machine by bombing its
vital industrial centers. This gift saved many
valuable months, definitely speeding up the
end of the war in Europe.
There is every likelihood that We will soon
pull out of England and leave behind us such
improvements as we made on those fields, and
such surpluses as we cannot take home or

 In cases like that we always have the ad copy saved so we can see whose fault it is, but in this case there was no ad copy. So we thought it was Christy's fault; but he proved it ours. So we lost that argument.
 Christy's idea was that we should mention it this week so that next time when cinnamon bread is the Special" customers will know the why and where fore of that 25-20 business. Our idea (with 40 loaves at 5 cents a loaf staring us in the conscience) was to not mention it, and next tune charge 50 cents

From the chapel in the base ment of the Griffin Memorial hospital, run by the Grey Nuns, a short time ago a golden bell disappeared.
 One of the Sisters told us about iJ and we asked if she thought 1t was an nside job. She doesn't think so. The bell, she explained, was sitting in au open window, where it could be easily reached from the ground outside the building.
 Some child, playing about, may have been attracted by the brightness of the object and talk en it for play.
 If anyone hears of the bell will they please give the hospital a ring?

PAC Is Sinister Force
In Politics, Byrd Says
AT Arlington Rally

Declaring peace between manage
ment and labor is one of the greatest
problems facing America, Senator
Byrd, Democrat, of Virginia, last
night charged that the CIO Political
Action Committee is the most sinis-
ter political organization in the
country"
Speaking at a ByrG Smith rally
at Washington-Lee High School in
Arlington, Senator Byrd told an
audience of 1,500 that few labor
leaders have gained power which
in some cases. is greater than that
of the Federal Government.
He said he believed in labor unions
and collective bargaining, but added
that labor trouble had its inception
in the passage of the Wagner Act
which gave special privileges to
unions"
Representative Smith, another
speaker, said he and Senator Byrd
were at disadvantage in the cam
paign because they are occupied full
time with some of the most vital
legislation in the country,s history
while opponents have ample oppor-
tunity to concentrate attacks on his
and Senator Byrds records.
Gov. Tuck praised the records OF
both candidates, saying there is a
strong demand for men of their
type in Congress.

'Gls Acquire Interest
In German Property,
State Department Say!
BY the Associoied Press

NEW YORK, July 24.-American
Germany and Austria are acquiring
sleeper interests" in German prop
erty in violation of the trading with
the Enemy Act, State Department
official said yesterday
They buy into property that isn't
blocked or hasn't been earmarked
for repdrationS without registering
title, with the idea of cashing in at
a later date say, five or six years
from now, when conditions are bet
ter, he said at a press conference
suggested by State Department
representative.
The spokesman. who did not wish
his name to be used declared GIS
were using black market funds, OF
funds sent from home, of the pro-
ceedS from commercial items
shipped from the United States and
converted into Reich marks.
THE Germans cooperate gladly
he added. They are willing to sell
81 per cent of anything they own,
because, to them, 40 per cent in
terest in an American owned project
is better than anything 100 per cent
German n-owned.
No action by the Government had
been decided on, he said, because
the deals were all undercover and
could not be identified until titles
were registered, which may not be
for years
He said, however the Government
was cracking down on "carpetbag-
gers by restricting the number of
American visitors TO Germany to
something fewer than 100 per
month.
Thousands of people who claim
they held stock in German industry
before the war now are petitioning
the Government for permission to
visit Germany for q first hand in
spection of their interests.
Among these are carpetbaggers
who seek special privileges. They
will be disappointed, he said.
The State Department official held
only a bleak outlook for Americans
who expected return of profits
from their preWar holdings or in
vestments in the defunct Axis coun-
tries.
Not for 30, or so years. if ever,
will a normal flow of profits be re-
turned" he said.
