THE IDEA of threading small cubes OF meat

versions of the old-time swords.

Then the brochettes are marinated for at
least "A hours in a mixture Of onion, carrots,

blending of these vegetables and seasonings
gives a flavor to the meat similar to garlic,
but with none Of the after-taste. When the

With the enactment of the Taft-Hartley Bill,

has been lost, of that there can be no question.
But this is not the time for despair or pessimism.
This is the time for fighting back as never before

that it is they who are the real menace to our

the Reds or the labor movement
They have disclosed themselves as the repre-

industrial strife.
And lastly. they have exposed to the light

bipartisan coalition in Congress of the dismal
failure of the Truman leadership. and of the
need for new party of the common people.
LET the bankers and industrialists of Wall
Street and LaSalle Street read the past pages of
american history. They will learn that it was
the nefarious ant-sedition laws of the 1905 that
were followed by the great popular democratic
upheaval which brought Thomas Jefferson into
power in 1900.
1t was also the popular opposition and revul-

That the Republican Congress
which faced the President, intends

MOSCOW, Mar. 12.-Secretary

determined to win Soviet ap-
proval for early economic unfit
cation of Germany as the third
session of the Four-Power For
eign Ministers Council opened

AT the same time, British Foreign

British minister would ask series

were doing with their prisoners, be-

have shunted aside all questions on
the subject.
Behind the American drive for
economic unification was an implied
warning that If the Russians failed
to go along, they would get fewer
industrial plants for reparations.
This trend in American policy close
ly paralleled that of the British,
and became apparent as the min

problem of Germany with the East
ern and Western Powers split at the
outset. ...-.
"Stinging Reply" Prepared.
Mr.. Bevin's advisers worked until
the early hours of the morning to
prepare what was described by one
of them as "stinging reply" to So

charges against the western powers
yesterday. The British Foreign Min
lister himself briefed the ENJOYS Of
New Zealand, Australia, South
Africa and Canada this morning on
the developments.

pm. 6 am. EST.

meanwhile, worked on the Austrian

be completed at Moscow. The dep

points, but on one of the major
ones-the question of German as
sets in Austria-a special committee

British conduct of the western
