Disaster
Blast in the Night

Like the Texas City explosions Of
last April, death and destruction came
in an earth-shaking defamation in
Spain's ancient port of Cadiz.
At 10 pm. a naval torpedo factory
on the narrow isthmus that separates
the city from the mainland blew up
with a shattering roar, a cascade Of
flame. Nearby shipyards quickly
caught fire; an orphanage and a hos
pital collapsed, burying children,
nuns and patients in a scene Of war
like horror.
Rescue workers, with the city cut
off at its base, feared 400 might have
persisted, that the injured numbered
in thousands.
The Texas City, Tex, toll from a
series of waterfront explosions was
approximately 500 dead.

American Republics
Chart Their Course

THE 81 REPUBLICS of the
i western hemisphere have off
ten been hostile toward each
other, but ever since their indie
pendence was achieved in bloody
struggles with European NOM
archs, most have generally been
united in one thing. 5
That was expressed 1874 years ago
in the Monroe Doctrine which warned
Europe's Holy Alliance that the
young United States would not toll
crate SPANS attempts to regain her
lost New World colonies. .
Latin-American countries CHIEF
complaint against the United States
for, years had been that Washington
often practiced dollar diplomacy"
Gradually this suspicion was dis
PEELED as the State Department culti-
waited good relations and stressed the
need for hemisphere cooperation in
the face of world dangers. ,
At Mexico City in March 1945 all
the American republics adopted Nom
roe's doctrine as a multilateral props
osition. BY the agreement of Chapul-
tepec they pledged common aid for
any American country threatened
from abroad.
During the week delegations from
20 of the countries met at the Quitan-
dinha Hotel near Rio de Janiero,
Brazil, to formalize the Chapultepec
agreement. This hemisphere defense
treaty was to be the only objec-
tive, though early in the proceedings
Argentina and Cuba sought to intro
duce economic subjects.
Such matters the US. delegation
hoped to relegate to the 9th Pam
American conference, meeting at Boz
gotta, Colombia, next January.
Most vigorous assailant of the
Washington position was Cuba, SMART
ing under Congress recent sugar act
which gives the Secretary of Agri-
culture the right to withhold an in~
crease in sugar quotas if foreign
countries fail to give US. citizens fair
and equal treatment. Cuba wanted
economic imperialism" treated rs an

Balkans
Problem for Assembly

In a stormy week OF Balkan
trouble, Russia used the veto twice to
kill two proposed Security Council
solutions to the conflict on Greece's
borders. One of them would have
called on Greece, Albania, Yugo-
slavia and Bulgaria "to cease all acts
of provocation" and settle their prob
lens at once by direct negotiation.
The Council president said there
was nothing to do but report to the
55-nation U.N. General Assembly that
the Council was unable to find a So
luton. ~
Earlier the United States and Great
Britain accused the Communications
mated Hungarian government of IN
fairly attempting to control the Aug.
81 elections by disqualifying millions.

Or U.N. {?

WHEN the Security Council
w recently asked-and got-a
truce in the outbreak of fighting
between Dutch and Indonesian
Republic forces it was hailed as a
much-needed shot in the arm for
the United Nations.
After a series of deadlocks, some
thing positive seemed to have been
achieved when the Council acted on
the Indonesians' complaint.
However, the fighting soon started
again, though on a relatively unob-
trusive scale. The Indonesians accused
the Dutch Of having broken the
agreement.
Into this situation the United States
stepped quickly, offering its services
as q "go-octWeen'' for mediation. The
Netherlands government accepted the
offer promptly, at the same time pro-
testing against any attempt by the
Security Council to Intervene"
From Java, however, came word
that the Indonesia Republic condi-
toned its acceptance with a clear in
vitation to the United Nations to take
action first.
Pending the decision of the Secur-
ity Council" was the way the Indo-
nesianS conditioned their reply.
Tartly the United States dem; nded
a clear-cut yes or no. Failing to get it,
the mediation offer was withdrawn.
As the Netherlands army reported
routing an Indon2s.an force, and
Dutch officials were said to advocate
an advance on the Republics capital
at Jogjakarta, a new factor entered
the Indonesian DISPUTE.
Russia charged at Lake Success that
the United States was putting diplo-
matte pressure on the Indonesian Re-
public to accept a decision bypassing
the United Nations.

gouglng the pubic, Steel was tagged
az the first major target.
Not the Department Of Justice but
the Federal Trade Commission &C.
cused almost the entire steel industry
of price-rigging and unlawful COM
bination and conspiracy" to choke
competition. Named as defendants
were the American Iron and Steel
Institute, of New York City, and some
hundred members.
Phantom Journey
The industry's July price boost was
practices which the ETC said were
designed to ''frustrate and destroy
price competition among themselves,
and thereby to dominate and~manipu-
late the markets in which their I'M
organized customers and consumers
must buy ~such~goods.
Assailed was the "basing-point"
system by which carrying costs are
assessed as !: s.ccl were sent by rail
from c~oTta:a y cisies-even though
it may actually be transported by a
cheaper 4,4ethod from a plant closer
to the customer.
A ceasa-and-desist order obtained
by the ETC against Steels use of
the "Pittsburgh-plus" formula-which
had all steel priced from the Penn
sylvania city-was obtained in 1924.
