Secrecy
Dropping the First Barrier

'''O
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, who
will be succeeded as Army chief of
staff soon by Gen. Omar N. Bradley,
this week gave written orders to take
the "secret" label off all historical
records which do not involve national
security.
"The historical record of Army
operations as well as the manner in
which these were accomplished are
public property the order read, land
except where national security may
be jeopardized, the right of citizens to
the full story is unquestioned."
Historical information on happen
ings in World War II could be OBJ
tanned, however, only if they involved
just the Army, and not other branches
or governments. This appare ntly
would impose bar to exploring in
formation on such matters as opera
tional contacts with the Russians in
the closing days of the war or affairs
embracing diplomatic matters.

deadlock.
Diplomatic chiefs of the United d
States. Britain, France and RUSSIA
agreed on six-point agenda, put spllt
tn the usual 3 to fashion over whether
Austria or Germany should be dis
cussed first.
The three western ministers said
agreement was near on an Austrian
treaty and added that quick settle
ment would reassure an ANXIOUS
world" Molotov insisted that Ger
ynanv come first as the most important
problem and accused the U n / tie
States, in particular, of trying to place
Germany in a secondary position.
Motives Questioned
"If we fail to agree on Germany, will
Austria again be left w 18th out a
treaty." asked British Foreign Secre-
tary Ernest Bevin. 'We must be frank
what are the motives?"
Molotov replied that he already had
made his motives clear.
Bevin pointed out the majority OF
the council was in agreement on the
order of work but Molotov retorted
he did not consider it an agreement
if three got together at the expense OF
fourth.
The Soviet delegate did agree, how
ever, to take up the Byrnes 4O-year
disarmament proposal for Germany,
provided it was coupled with discus
sion of what he said was failure OF
western powers to carry out present
demilitarization policies for the Reich.
The Russian and French delegations
arrived at the London parley by plane
since strikes tied up French rail lines.
French Crisis
The political and economic crises IN
both France and Italy are in part an
outgrowth of the east-west clash.
In France Premier Robert Schuman
headed Frances seventh new cabinet
since that country's liberation from
the Nazis. The Ramadier cabinet fell
last week after a wave of Communist
inspired strikes tied up the nations
ports, communications and economy.
The new coalition cabinet consists
of six members of Schuman's Popular
Republican Movement (MRP), five
members of the Socialist Party's right
wing, three middle-of-the-road Radi-
cal Socialists and one moderate indie
pendent Republican. Schuman con-
suited leaders of all major political
parties except the Communists and
de Gaulle's Rally of the French People.
The new cabinet still faced spread
ing strikes. One of its first actions was
the expulsion from France of 19 Rus
Slams for Interference in French
affairs" in connection with the strike
crisis.
- The current French political and
economic crisis has increased the pres
tige of de Gaulle tremendously among
the French people. Two years ago he
predicted that Frances myriad politi-
cal parties would cancel each other,
-paralyzing the country.

For DIETS Sake

Japanese legislators, new W ueiiio
cratic ways, agreed wearily this week
to deliberate with "extreme self con-
tainment.
Three successive sessions in Japan's
House of Representatives had pro-
duced some rousing fights, mainly be-
tween the predominant Socialists and
the opposition L b er Is (Conserva-
tives).
Two Liberals were thrown out bodl-
ly at one free-for-a1l in which booles
thudded all over the Diet floor.
A third Liberals neck was twisted
and his hair pulled when he ran up
to Premier Tetsu K tay m and
screamed into his ear. Katayama IS
not deaf.
Finally a recess was called. Then a
Liberal crossed right to a Socialist
jaw and fled to the Liberal Party
chambers with Socialists in hot pur-
suit. A locked door saved him.
Diet attendants said tea consump-
ton was three to four times normal
in the three riotous sessions during
which coal mines government man
agement bill was debated.

from various parties IS organized to

Rep. Henry Larcade D-La).
Meanwhile two new planes destined
for the Air Force successfully tried
their wings. At Muroc Army Air Base,
Calf, the North American Co.'s KIP
86, the country's first swept-back
wing jet fighter, completed 80 test
flights. The 35-degree sweep-back en-
ables the plane to attain higher speeds
than possible with conventional wings.
Its builders believe it may reach the
700-nile- -an-hour class.
At San Diego, Consolidated Vultee's
XC-99, the worlds largest land plane,
lifted into the air for the first time
and cruised for an hour over the bay.

for some time Vast distances and lack

Government sources estimate that
2O,OOO,0O0 Chinese men and women

Two days later, on Christmas, the

democratic lines.
AS in last weeks election, the two
minor parties-the Young China Par

must submit names of their candidates
for approval by Chang Kai-shek's
Kuomintang Party.
The Young China Party has nomi-
mated 120 candidates. Democratic So

minor party membership would total
