Truman Says No Strike

President 1ruman's announcement
that there will be no coal strike is r.
prlslng. 1t will be noted that Mr.. Tru-
man gives this word without qualifica-
ton. The Washington dispatch says the
PRESIDENT announced positively" there
Will be no strike. To make assurance
'doubly sure, it would seem to be up to
Mr.. Truman to give the source of his
information.
For while the mere statement is en-
couraglng, the public cannot forget that
he has previously made broad state
mehts Which were not verified later, and
also that in all negotiations concerning
coal production the government must
zeal WIthan adroit and wholly selfish
man, John L. Lewis. head of the United
Nine Workers, who has stopped at moth
ing III the past to gain his ends and
gives no evidence of having recently
reformed.
Ni. ulldI S announcement came
simultaneously with word that Secre-
tary OF the Interior Krug had agreed
to have Captain N. H. Collision, admin
%strator of the mines, meet with Lewis
or his representatives on November 1.
AS Mr.. Krug had previously told Lewis
that he should negotiate new contracts
with the individual mine owners, is the
public to assume that by changing his
mind he has either backed down in adj
vance or that the demands are to be SO
simple they can be met with complete
fairness to the operators and consum-
ers? There is nothing in the Lewis
record to justify this alternative.
Whatever the outcome of the negotia-
tons may be, the conference is cunning
ly timed four days in advance of the
November 5 elections.

Work For Many

The Civilian Production Administra-
tons order permitting construction of
the Carver Manufacturing Company's
shirt plant, which cancelled the previous
prohibition issued by the administra-
tons Greensboro office means much to
Wilmington's industrial expansion pro-
gram and the employment of idle labor.
Construction operations will continue
for all of nine months. Workers in large
numbers will be assured jobs, and once
the factory is opened some four hundred
operatives will receive regular pay en-
velopes.
With the CA having established a
precedent by this move, it is to be en-
couraged to lift the ban on other con-
struction in this area, as has happened
in several other regions, and give the
green light to building construction, 50
that other plants may award contracts
and Wilmington take it's proper place
among Southern communities in indus
trial production. If this is done, one of
the gravest postwar readjustment prob
lems-work for the idle-will be in a
fair way for solution.
Competent ex-servicemen, with a
variety of skills, will have the chance
they seek to carr their livelihood.

Stain On ~Incendiaries

Answering questions p%ropounded by
Hugh Baillie, Joseph Stain declares
Russia has sixty divisions in the West
l(lnstead of the two hundred Winston
Churchill suggested the USSR might
have under arms there) does not pos
sess the atomic bomb secret; still wants
a loan from the United States; does
not believe the veto power has been
overworked. Mr.. Baillie wired thirtv-
one questions to the Russian generals
simo on October 81. After a ~seven-dav
lapse the answers are Forthcoming TO
all of them from Moscow.
The answer to M aside from those
above, holds present attention. Asked
what he believed the most serious threat
to peace, Stain replied: "The incen-
diaries of a new war, foremost Churchill
and those who think like him in Great
Britain and the United States"
Churchill has indeed assumed an in
cendiary role and there are some in this
country who hold similar views. But
the Russian chieftain understated the
case when he excluded some of his own
agents, foremost his foreign commissar,
Molotov, who has not been outdone at
any point in his attacks on the United
States and Great Britain by Churchill
or any Briton or American. Moscow has
given birth to as much incendiarism dur
ing these mis-called peace-making times,
as London or Washington.

7wo South African Issues Expected
To Force Test OF UN Charter Meaning

has pointed out that if the U. N.
goes along with India, it would be
possible for another nation, if only
for political reasons. to inquire into
American treatment of Negroes.
On the annexation of Southwest
Africa the issue is even more con
fused.
The Union became administrator
of Southwest Africa under the Lea
que in Which the principle was rec
ognized that such administrators
Cor mandatory poWers) were be-
holden to the League for the govern
ment they ran in the dependent
area.
The authors Of U. N. also recog-
nized that principle of responsibility
and set up a trusteeship council
which is to have supervision over
the manner in which trusteesAip
powers u dependent territories.
But the charter says the nations
which had such areas under the
League may" offer them for U.
N. supervision. 1t does not say
must However. the understand
ing seems to be must" since all
the other mandatory powers - the
United Kingdom, France, Belgium,
Australia, New Zealand - have
plans for placing their old League
inundated territories under the eye
of U. N. except, at this point,
Palestine.
The Union will be opposed, unot-
ficlally, by three of it's own citi-
zens: Senator Hyman Basner, and
two labor leaders, E. S. Sachs, and
H. A. Naidoo. They told the press
that the present Union government
is unfit" to take over Southwest
Africa because of the treatment it
affords its own African citizens.
Southwest Africa has largely an
African population.
The Council of African affairs,
an American institution run on con-
trlbuted funds. has entered the bat
tie, and plans mass meetings
throughout the United States to
arouse public interest in the U. N.
debate.

BY SIGRID -ARNE
Associated Press Writer

NEW YORK, Oct. 20 - R -
The Union of South Africa is ex-
pected to provide test cases before
the United Nations assembly on two
sections of the charter which had
some of the authors puzzled whe j
they wrote it at San Francisco.
South Africa has said it wants
TO me Southwest Africa, a large
adjoining territory which the union
has administered since 1920 under
a League of Nations mandate.
And India is protesting the man.
ner in which the Union is treating
its Indian nationals.
In both instances, charges have
been made that the Union Of South
Africa is violating the charter.
Legal experts say both debates will
force the delegates to interpret
what they meant when the charter
was written.
In particular, the question of
Union discrimination against it's
Indian citizens seems headed for
heated debate. The Union has laws
which forbids Indian citizens from
owning land, except nj certain
areas, and which forces then seek
permits to de business.
India claims that this is in
strict violation of sections of the
charter which bind the United Ma
tons to promote" respect for
fundamental freedoms without
distinction as to race, sex, Ian
guage, or religion"
The Unions chief delegate, Field
Marshal Jan Christian SHUTS,
cites another section of the charter
which says nothing in the charter
leaves the gate open for U. N. 10
intervene in matters which are
essentially within the domestic
jurisdiction of any state" He
claims that the Unions treatment
of its citizens is a domestic matter.

Atomic Control Board

President Truman has at last select
ed the a~ll-civilian Atomic Control Com
mission, a matter which has occupied Of
fetal and public attention for well over
a year. with a warm contest on the part
of the military for a place on the board.
1t cannot be said with surety that an
all-civilian group is the best possible So
luton of the atomic control problem.
That can be determined only as the
future brings experience. But it IS IN
keeping with the United States custom
to place important departments under
civilian control, ever when defense or
attack are under consideration. Thus
we have civilian secretaries of the Army
and Navy.
Nor is it to be determined in advance
that the boards personnel is the best
possible. That, too, can be proved only
by the test of time. There are those
who feel the scientists who had most
to do with solving the atomic bomb
problem-wI finally learned the know
how-should have larger representation
on the board. But the President has
chosen members who form a wide cross
section of interests and experience. They
are. David E. Lilienthal long chairman
of the Tennessee Valley Authority;
A. Strauss, New York banker; R.
F. Backer, Cornell physicist; Sumner
IT. Pike, former SEC executive. and W.
w. Wvmack, Des Moines editor.
Their duties are broad and varied.
AS listed by the Associated Press, they
are:
Conduct its own research, and promote
research by others.
Own and operate facilities for making
fashionable material. No one else may do
this except under license from the com
mission.
Own all plutonium, uranium and other
material which the commission deems
capable of releasing Substantial quanti-
ties of atomic energy. Any now private
ly owned will be taken over and paid for.
Prospect for new material.
BUY fashionable material abroad, if nee
essary FOR defense.
Distribute atomic material for research
or medical use, making its own rules as to
charges and other terms.
Conduct military research and make
atomic bombs for the armed forces.
License the manufacture of equipment
and devices for using atomic energy.
Issue reports on any atomic energy de-
Velopments for industrial and commercial
use.
Take over for public use, with just COM
pensation, any patents for making Or using
atomic energy.
Control any dissemination OF secret in
formation.
Issue regulations for safety. health and
other purposes in the atomic field.
Report to congress at least twice a year.
In view of the fact that thew are to
have such complete control of the
worlds most dangerous power, which is
also capable of becoming one of the
worlds most useful peacetime agent, we
can only pray that they measure up to
the responsibilities resting upon them.

OUR BLUE HERON WINDMILL
BY WILLIAM T. L L

Ten years ago, one of the Lynd-
hurst boys, under the spell of Mi
lady's frlendliness, made for us an
elaborate a d sturdy windmill,
with a fish as the pointer. Each
Summer since 1--WE take it indoors
il Winter), it has whirled tireless-
ly outside of the windows of our
log cabin and it is consulted often
er than our barometer. For it is
important to sojourners in the Ca
madam woods to know which way
ne wind blows.
Now little Ernie has returned
from five years OF wal service,
IS a sturdy young man, and his
windmill is still whirling merrily.
All through the intervening years
this weather-vane has been doing
active duty and keeping in re-
membrance a fine friend, TIE
maker and giver.
Every life reeds a spiritual
Weather-vane, to snow which way
the winds of spiritual life are
blowing. Our own feelings are no7
enough: they may be influenced
by Indigestion. A Bible, read IN
the prayer-closet, best reveals the
direction of our life.

Americas Card Authority
Written for NEA Service

At all tournaments of the Ameri-
can Contract Bridge League there
are pickup messengers to take the
score cards from the bridge tables
to the scorekeeper. We recently lost
two of the most popular members
of the pickup staff, the Roth twins,
Marie Claire and Claire Marie,
daughters Of Harry J. Roth of
Brooklyn, N. Y. They have enter
ed Georgian Court College at Lake
wood, N. J. Their bridge interest
there will be centered on the fine
card party given each year by the
music department of the college, in
which the twins ere freshmen.
l recall kibitzing today's hand
several years ago during the sum-
mer nationals at the Convention
Hall at Asbury Park, N. J. Marie
and Claire were youngsters then
and were playing on the huge bal
cony of the Convention Hall. I think
that the noise they made was re
sponsible for a nice defensive play
executed by East and West on this
hand.
West cashed the king and ace
of spades, and then at most Of the
tables, West shifted to the diamond
and declarer made his contract
easily.
But just as trick two was turned
at this table, one of the twins
knocked V e a box which came
tumbling down step after step from
the balcony. Now West continued
with the ten of spades and was
Mortified when ne realized that he
was giving declarer a stuff and a
ruff.
However, as the stuff and ruff
was of no advantage to declarer,
he trumped in dummy with the
seven of hearts. East overtrumped
with the jack and South had to
trump with the queen.
Then there was no way to pre-
vent West from making both the
ace and ten of hearts, defeating
the contract.
West could have reasoned that
his correct play was the ten of
spades at trick three. He could
tell from the bidding that East did
not have a trick in his hand, and
