GERMANY:
CTS to Stuy

Russia might do as she pleased
about occupying Germany, but the
western allies intend to keep their
troops in that country whether or
not the Russians pull out.
THAT was the statement Of a
west German government spokes-
man who indicated this was one
Of the decisions reached at the
big three Paris conference.
u. S. secretary Of state Dean
Acheson and German chancellor
Konrad Adenauer had agreed upon
the need for keeping western troops
in Germany.
This same spokesman said the
appointment of Soviet Marshal
Konstantin Rokossovsky as COM
mander-in-chief Of the Polish army
was construed to mean that Rus
sian troops would be Withdrawn
from eastern Germany soon.
EVEN THOUGH the Russians
should withdraw their troops, this
same source said, the Russian
secret police and the Soviet-trained
German peoples police still would
remain.

ITALY:
New Weapons

Experience, though a h a r d
teacher. is supposed to teach well.
In International events, however.
this doesn't always follow.
FOR INSTANCE, Italy, two-time
foe Of the democracies in as
many world wars. will be rearmed
soon II top-planners Of the Atlantic
pact countries have their way. Dis
cussions looking toward rearming
the Italians under the Atlantic pact
already were underway between
h~igh-ranking u. S. and Italian mill
tary officers and diplomats.
James c. Dunn, u. S. ambassa-
dor to Italy. attended the. first Of
a series of closed sessions aimed
at undermining and re-equipping
Italy's treaty-limited armed forces
under the Atlantic pact's defense
system.
TTALY'S RECORD in connection
with disservice to the democracies
smells 10 high heaven. In World
War I the country started out with
Germany and the Central Powers
and turned coat only when 1t was
evident her side was losing. In
World War II, she started out with
II Duce Mussolini and forsook him
only when it became apparent she
was on the wrong horse again.

FARM RATS:
A Formula

The farmers in the Rio Grande
tomato fields were beginning to
get results in their interminable
war on rats after garnishing their
crops with poisoned grain.
A FEW WEEKS AGO the rats
were swarming into tomato and
green pepper fields near La Grul-
Ia, Tex. They spread methodically
up and down the Rio Grande until
the invasion covered a 15-mile
strip, one to two miles wide in
places. Farmers lost first pickings
completely in several fields.
Then they began to dust their
crops with poisoned grain. Said
grower Ralph Jones: THAT poison
sure does the business. It's stopped
the losses"
But not before serious damage
was done to 1000 irrigated and
cultivated acres. :

STRIKE ENDS:
Steel costliest

Americas costliest steel strike
ended, appropriately enough on
Armistice day, with the CIo steel
workers winning demands for an
tndustry-financed insurance-pen-
sion formula.
THE cAPTTULATIoN of y. S.
steel, bellwether Of the industry
ms regards labor relations, brought
an end to the crippling strike.
-Four smaller firms settled on the
same terms the same day. terms
which followed the pattern ac-
cepted by Bethlehem steel, first
big company to sign with the
union.
According to a Clio spokesman,
the union-company agreement en-
bodied such terms as a minimum
500 monthly pension to workers
aged IS with IS years service,
with the employer paying all the
cost, and an insurance program,
costing five cents an hour per
man, with the company and work
er sharing the cost.

RAILS:
Fares Up

The third fare increase for east
ern railroads in the past three
years has been authorized by the
interstate commerce commission.
The increase this time amounted
to q 12.5 per cent hike in rail
passenger fares In the East. est.
mated to give the railroads anoth-
er 37.8 million dollars q year in
revenue. r~t
THE RISE applies to the area
east Of the Mississippi river and
north Of the Ohio and Potomac
rivers. Commuter fares were not
to be affected.
In 1947 these same roads were
granted a 10 per cent boost in
passenger fares, and last year
another hike of approximately II
per cent. Southern and western
railroads did not apply for the in
crease granted the eastern roads.
THE NEW RATES, it was said,
would raise eastern coach fares
to about 3.37 cents a mile, and
~parlor-car and sleeping-car fares
to about as cents a mile.
In New York, a railway official
said the new increase would boost
one-way coach fares from New
York to Chicago from $27.30 to
SCOTS. First class. fares would be
raised from $685. to $40.89.

SWEDEN
folks Back

The United States senate, col.
lectively and individually, has
been called by some colorful and
lurid names-but it remained for
some Swedish editors to hurl the
most devastating blast at that au-
gust body.
A SWEDISH NEWSPAPER, the
liberal afternoon Expressen, had
this to say:
'sThe U.S.. senate is certainly a
high assembly. but it is also a
dumping place for all sorts OF
quaint characters and the most ig-
norant politicians from the dark
est corners of the union. And it
must be pretty dark in Oklahoma"
The shaft was aimed, really, at
-Oklahoma's, Senator Thomas, a
Democrat, who was critical of the
way Sweden had received a sen
ate appropriations subcommittee
visiting Marshall plan countries to
see how u. S. funds were being
used.
Sweden, it appeared, had re-
ceived quite a bit of Marshall plan
aid, but had sort Of "snubbed''
Thomas and his committee. Thorn
as declared the country to which
he referred" in his criticism, ex-
pressed in Vienna, had helped no
one in the past 1876 years. and il
It got any more Marshall plan
funds. it would be over his pro-
test. .,.
The QUAINT CHARACTERS"
and "most ignorant politicians
the Swedes referred to in the SEN
ate, or who had ever been a mem
Der of it, included some right in
fluential fellows who might have
much to say about continuing
Marshall plan aid among them,
President and former Senator Har-
~ S. Truman.
