On the greatest Inaugural

were unanimous in that the In
auguration ceremonies of Pre-
sident Truman were the great
est in the history of the Uni
ted States. It is all over now,
but little bits gathered here
and there present the casual,
human side, which is always
present regardless of the pomp
and formality
For % minutes the United
States was without a presi-
dent, technically. President
Truman's term expired at IL
o'clock noon, January 20, but
because of some unexplained
delay, he did not take the oath
of office until 1929.
One Congressman who was
a member of the planning
committee was actually stop
ped by Police when he at
temped to take his rightful
place on the Presidential pa-
rade reviewing stand, The
man was Representative
Charles A. Halleck.
During the time the Presi-
dent was delivering his ad-
dress, a small boy, unidenti-
fled, stood at the foot of the
platform, calmly eating a ba-
mana. To this boy the occasion
meant nothing. The President
did not seem disturbed.
Small boys perhaps had as
good a view as the best, for a

HOW FAR WILL WE GO FOR TITO?

The Russian demonstration of power along the Yugo- slavion frontier may be for more serious purpose than persuade the nations of the West that will be bad business to make a loan to Marshal Tito.
 If the loan is made, the Communists in Moscow will, course present proof that the Marshal has lined himself up with Western capitalism" This charge would be pressed in effort to isolate the Yugosav leader from the Communists of other countries and to prevent him from becoming something of leader in the minds of dissdent Communists.
 Even so, the chance exists that some frontier incident might lead to trouble and that Moscow thinks of Yugo savia part of Russia which Moscow has the right to punish without creating international incident This being so would be we'll for the United States Great Britain and other Western powers to understand very clearly how far they prepared to go in supporting opposition in Yugoslavia.

We presume that the President has some information upon which to base his belief that the of is less intense and for the hope that the conflict between the democratic nations and Russia and her satellites will end blythe acceptance of Western democratic principles in internatiOna conduct.
 There is evidence upon which can conclude the Marshall Pan the cooperation of Western nations of Europe and the Atlantic Pact have slowed down the Russian effort to extend Communist influence Whether this pause means that the Communist leaders have found the facts against them only delaying while the Russian Government marshalls it's for other step is unknown.
 The breach between Russia and Yugoslavia offers something of opportunity to test the resolution of the Russians From the notes exchanges between the two nations it is clear that Moscow does not want it's satel

DOLLAR SHORTAGE STOPS TRADE

The dollar problem that threatens to Stife information trade arises from the fact that the other nations need and buy goods and services from the United States than this country is willing to buy from them
 The only way relieve the dollar shortage is by the process of permitting other peoples to sell something in the United States As they sell they will acquire the dollars necessary for their purchases.
 While the reciprocal trade program has made consid- erabe progress, the tariff still stands bulwark against the importation of foreign goodS As long it blocks the American market to other nations there will continue to be dollar shortage which be relieved only by gifts of money, the lending of credits and the investment of American capital in other lands.
 President Truman in his speech at Philadelphia, called attention to the situation, declaring that we must increase our buying abroad if to achieve balanced world trade" This is pleasant way of saying that must increase imports If this is what we want the way to do is to lower some tariff rates to the point where foreign products can be sold on the American market.

LICENSING OF NEWSPAPERS IN GERMANY
 (British Information Service(

The Times notes that the licensing of newspapers in the British of Germany has been handed over to the Germans themselves, it has already been in the American zone The Times" says
 Tt is obvious that the occupation authorities will have far less influence the press; they will still be able to intervene when the prestige and security of the occupation forces attacked but they will not be able to insure that their is adequately presented.
 Some papers may be expected to be strongly nation ast in tone and appealing to the worst instincts of the German people, But in the long run, the German press will only reflect the state of German opinion It will be for the German Parliament at Bohn to shape that opin ion and if the Parliament grows strong the guardian of German democracy there would be need to worry unduly about few violent nationalist newspapers"

Atomic News Speeds Up Air Defense Planning
(By James J. Sfrebig)

Associated Press Aviation Writer)
 WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman's disclosure that Russia have an atom bomb appears likely to speed u air defense planning without changing its direction.
 This country's military leaders have long based their thinking on the possibility of RuSsia's having the atom bomb. They gave 1852 as the date the bomb probably will be ready for military use by for eign power.
 Fridays announcement indicates Russia may be well ahead of the estimated schedule. Among defense officials, especially air specialists, this news is considered likely to hasten the development of these phases of atomic air warfare planning:
 1. The United States must push its interceptor fighter program.
 2. Ii must push the program for a radar detection screen. This pro- gram is barely underway in con- nection with the billion-dollar l5- year plan for an electric airways and air traffic control system, now scheduled for completion in 1863.
 3. It must push development of ground-to-air interceptor missiles to be used in defense against en- emy bomberS and missiles.
 4. Intelligence efforts to deter mine possible enemy progress on aircraft and missiles able to de-

want international control. So does the United States. Despite this ap- parent meeting of minds on the part of the statesmen there is no agreement. The types of control the Soviet Union wants bears no resemblance to the control urged by the West.
 Tass, the Soviet news agency, said the Russians stand on their former position. This would mean absolute prohibition of the use of atomic weapons. But the Russians want first, before any convention is signed, the destruction of pres ent stockpiles. At the same time the Russians insist upon retention of the big power veto in matters dealing with atom control, stand which make any agreement on the atom worth little more than the paper it is written on.
 TaSs said Russia has had an atomic weapon since l947. The West has discounted this as bluff aimed at indicating she already has begun stockpiling. The opinion in the West is that she is at a point now where the Americans were in July, l945, when the first atom bomb was exploded in New Mexico desert.
 Some Western observers ex- pressed hope that Russia now : would make some concessions to the West in the quarrel over atom control, to avoid potentially dis astrouS Standoff.
