giving a more general account to
the nation that night.
The Greek situation Is described
by high officials in Washington as
"worrisome" .
The official announcement of the
creation of another Moscow spon-
sored democratic government" in
Northern Greece Is expected to be
followed by its recognition by some
of the Soviet satellites, such as
Albania, Yugoslavia and Romania
1t is not yet certain whether Bull
garia and the U. S. S. r. itself will
extend their official recognition at
the same time.
Delaying Tactics Seen.
The feeling in the policy division
Of the State Department Is that
Russia will wait a little while to
observe the reaction of the United
States and other Western powers.
The Kremlin also is believed to wish
to have free hand in the event
the whole matter Is brought before
the United Nations.
The Importance OF official recog-
milton of the guerrilla government
by its immediate neighbors lies in
the fact that 1t then can ask for
military support to fight the "usurp-
ers" - the royal government - in
Athens. There are sufficient Yugo-
slav forces in Macedonia to come to
Gen. Marko's assistance and actually
break through the lines held for
more than a year by the war-weary
Greek government divisions.
The American government must
decide soon whether this can be
considered as an additional threat

The few Vegetables stored IN the

they held or had them boiled out

No one had to think about finding
the warmest place In the house In

And yet we are participants, all
OF us, in one of the most moment
GUS decisions of history. We have
to decide whether we as a people
shall embark on a unique adven-
ture in power politics. The Presi-
dent and the Secretary of State
have outlined the undertaking in
which we are asked to engage. Con-
gress when 1t reconvenes is expected
to express our views. That is the
democratic way as 1t operates in
our Republic.
Many times In the past Congress
has voiced Our willingness to take
up arms against a foreign enemy
In our name, Congress has declared
war and dedicated the Nations re-
sources and the lives OF the Nations

Cold War For Mastery.
Now Congress Is asked to declare
our readiness to dedicate our re-
sources to what has come to be
called cold war, war We may hope
to win without fighting, although
it is war for the mastery OF the
world.
It is something unique In power
