Youth Declared Demanding
Solid Answers on RELIGION
~ the Assoeiofsd Press

BY the Assoeiofsd Press
BUCK HILLS FALLS, Pa, Jan. 18
American young men and women
are not as familiar with religious
matters as the generation that pre-
ceded them, but they demand more
"down-to-earth" answers to the
questions they ask, a church official
declared today ..,@.,a..' .-.
That conclusion was drawn by DR.
John Oliver Nelson, director of the
Commission on the Ministry eof the
Federal Council of Churches OF
Christ in America, after he presided
at question -and-answer session of
the annual meeting of the National
Preparatory Schools Committee of
the YMCA.
The meeting, which closes tomor1
row, Is attended by 300 students
from 46 preparatory schools along
the Atlantic Seaboard.
As an example of the sort of ques-
tions being asked by American
youth, DR.. Nelson cited one posed at
the question-answer session: Can a
Person Be a Christian and Still Be
Popular?"
1.-THE way person does anything, u
DR.. Nelson said in answer, "is as i'm
portant as what he does. A Christian
can remain popular if he is skillful
in the manner he utilizes, in his ap-
proach to Others"

Harmony Of Big Four
Threatened in Split
Al Deputies Farley
BY The As.eeiated Press

LONDON, Jan. 18.-Big -Four
good will that grew in the latter
stages of the New York foreign
ministers meeting appeared to-
night to be threatened by wide
disagreement over problems OF
Germany.
The disagreement was pointed ur
as the ministers deputies met here
this week to begin shaping up the
peace treaties for Germany and
Austria.
The deputies primary assignment
is to examine disputes and report
on agreements, enabling the minis
ters to get directly to the nub Of
the issues when they meet in Mos
COW In March.
American State Department Of
ficials said they had heard "rumors'
that Russia might propose the i'm
mediate withdrawal Of all four oc-
cupation forces in Germany. The
reports were entirely without con-
firmation, but were not discounted
by American diplomats, who sale
they had unverif1ed reports from
Germany that Russia might spring
the evacuation proposal as a sur.
prise during the deputies confer.
ence.
Russian Unaware of Plan.
The officials said if the suggestion
Is made they presumed 1t woulo
have the effect of boosting Russian
prestige among the Germans, but
that the other occupation powers
were not likely to adopt the idea
A Soviet Embassy official said he
had never heard of any such pro-
posal.
The question of the German-pol-
ish border was danger spot. The
Communist newspaper Pravda in
Moscow vigorously supported today
American-opposed Polish claims to
40, 900 square miles of rich territory
reaching to the Oder-Neisse on Pol
and's Western frontier.
The United States was reported
ready to fight hard to have the
region, or part of it, recognized as
German again. Some Western
sources agreed, however, that Amer
ican objections to the Polish claims
had been kept quiet too long to
carry heavy weight in a council
argument and that If the United
States had wanted to keep the area
away from Poland it should have
started at Potsdam.
Poland took over administration
of the area under terms of the Pots
dam agreement. Former Secretary
of State Byrnes questioned the Pol
ish claim only last fall in his Stutt-
gart speech. Meanwhile, Poland has
replaced thousands of Germans in
the area with Polish settlers.
Agreement Is Doubted.
Poland holds that the region was
awarded for keeps, subject only to
confirmation by peace conference
The entire issue was regarded as SO
controversial that no measure OF
agreement was likely to be discov-
cred among the deputies.
Pravda went back today to the
10th century to cite Poland's his
toric claims to lands along the Oder
declaring the Poles had iron de-
termination" to hold on to them
and scofflng at "pitiful and redicu-
lous" efforts to cast doubt on
Poland's rights.
Citing the words Of Prime Minis
ter Stain and Foreign Minister
Molotov for its views, Pravda de-
clared "the ancient Polish lands in
the West will forever belong to the
Polish people"
Other areas Of disagreement in
cluded French demands in connec-
tion with the Saar and Yugoslavian
claims for 1000 square miles of the
Austrian provinces of Carinthia and
Styria.
