the Senate Foreign Relations Com mittee, said that he believed the postponed Rio conference to draft Hemisphere Defense Pact should be held without further de- lay. For a year and a half now the conference has been postponed because of II. s. objections to Ar genuine participation.
 Today, however, other Lain Am ericanS in the Pan American Un- icn feel that incoming Secretary of State Marshall will follow Vanden- hsrgs recommendation and give the green light for the conclave. Therefore, some of them argue that naming a prominent nonpartisan Argentine as Director General of the Pan American Union would be "a cordial gesture, helping to bring Inter-American harmony back over night"
 The men most frequently men toned by those who favor this idea are Juan Isaac Cooke, former For eign Minister, and Miguel Angel Carcano, who was for many years Argentine Ambassador to Britain and headed the Argentine delega- ticn to the United Nations Confer ence at San Francisco.

FINANCIAL sQUEEZE-PLAY

Here is how the REC program for aiding sr;all business operated. If, for instance, small operator of a petroleum derivatives plant in Maryland went to his local bank and asked TOT a Sl00,000 loan, the bank probably would say Your legal limit is $25,000, but we'll ask our affiliated banks if they'll participate with us and make it Sl00,000n
 The small-town bank would then query larger banks in Baltimore, Richmond and Washington to get takers for the remaining s75,0o0 And the larger banks, seeing that the petroleum was competing with Shell, Standard, Texaco, Sunoco and other big companies, probably would reply: Your competition IS too strong
 Actually, the real reason for turn ing down the loan might be the bigger banks ties with larger pe- troleum companies When and if the bigger banks turned down the loan, however, the small bank could go to the REC and he certain of underwriting the remaining 75 per cent
 Following last weeks REC vote, however, this is no longer possible

At the moment Juneaus cultural side is in ascend ence what with the annual Arts and Crafts Exhibit now on and with membership drive being conducted by the Juneau Community Concert Association until February 3.
 The Arts and Crafts Exhibit, now in its third year already has proved its place community life As the exhibition has grown with each succeeding year it has provided increasing degree of pleasure for viewers and for many has assumed primary place on their list of activities Still worthwhile is the awareness of Aaskas unique art opportunities 1t has awakened sparkling creative desire that will return great benefits through the years.
 The very active group from whom inspiration for the Arts and Crafts Exhibit came and to whose enthusiastic efforts its progress is due deserving of the thanks of the entire Gastneau Channel area
 No less beneficial to the community the aims of the Concert Association which plans several times yearly to bring to Juneau recognized professional artists in music and allied fields Proof that many local residents yearn for opportunities hear musical masterworks capably performed afforded by the outstanding reception given the inaugural effort in this field during the past year when the Beta Sigma Phi sorority presented pianist Max Shapiro in con- cert here Consensus of opinion that Juneau should have more than such treat and from that occasion the Juneau Community Concert Associas-on was born
 There is nothing unusual the formation of a concert association for the purpose of holding concert series in city size of Juneau Such activities are commonplace among smaller communities throughout the civilized world.

Agreement" whereby the REC auto matically underwrote 75 percent of loans which a bank extends to a small business.
 Commissioner Bodman's back ground is the National Bank of De- troit, one of the most powerful fi- nancial institutions of the automo- bile capital. Behind it are the Fish CT Brothes, of Fisher Body fame, and General Motors. They are also linked with the Bankers Trust and the Guaranty Trust in New York. This group represents big business, and generally speaking does not favor loans to small business.
 So with two Democratic commas sicners absent, Detroit banking friend Bodman moved to end the BPA program. Democratic com missioner Henry Mulligan opposed COP commissioner Harvey Gunder- son went along with Bodman- though without enthusiasm The Republicans incidentally had the unofficial blessing of Democratic Secretary Of the Treasury Snyder,
 And that was how the REC man euvcred to take one of it's most significant steps of the past two years. For since the BPA program was put into effect in March 1945, the REC had lent small business total of s464 $50, lo2-a flow of capital which could not help but have a tremendous impact on the country.
 Note Though Republican RF Commissioners voted against small business, COP leaders on Capitol Hill generally hold the opposite. Republican National Chairman Carroll Reece has been strong for small business.

REPORT ON CHINA

One reason representative Mike Mansfield of Montana gave the press the brush-off when he emerg- ed from the White House the other day was because he didn't wish to comment on the major topic of his talk with the President-Chinese- American relations.
 Mansfield is one of the top Con- eressional authorities on the Far East. having made a special, first hand study of Chinese internal problems for President Roosevelt in late 1945 and again recently as an emissary of the Foreign Affairs Committee. Talking to President Truman, he did some blunt sum marking of his latest trip. M
 Resentment against foreign in- tervening powers, including the United States, is as strong today as he found it in North and Gen. tral China during his 1945 mission AdllSlltlQ lCPOl bSN. bA Ni'SAf a4N " ported that American business in- terests in China were seriously dis turbed about conditions, chiefly in Shanghai, where labor riots have been widespread.
 Another topic to be covered in bis report, Mansfield told the Pres ident, would be the future admin istration of Pacific mandated is- lands, the Palaus, Truk, the Mar shalls, which we captured from the Japs. If we do not retain outright control of these islands for future security, the Montana Congressman believes, we should make certain the United States should be the chief administrator under any trus- teeship arrangement.

Shouts punctured the Wild ap-
plause that greeted the finish Of
Robert Casadesus' performance Of
Ravel's Concerto for the Left Hand
which the noted French pianist
played last night with the Phila-

directing. Only once In Z while does
Constitution Hall ring with such
enthusiastic expression and seldom
has it been so rightly bestowed. It
would have been mastery playing
If two hands we're employed and with
the supposedly weaker left hand
taking the heavy burden, 1t Was little
short of miraculous. Last nights
concert was the first of two consecu-
tive ones with which the orchestra
win close its season In this city.
The full scope of Casadesus' art
was emphasized by the great con-
trast the two numbers Of his part Of
the program offered. Choosing the
lovely Mozart Concerto In A major,
K. 48s" for his first appearance, his
delicate delivery was Of exquisitely
fine proportions. Not only Is he par

composer than any other perform
