Group 10 Urge Recruiting
OF Severn River BRIDGE
BY the Associoied Press

BALTIMORE, May 19.-An An
napolis delegation was to confer
with State Roads Commission Of
flcials today to urge rerouting OF
the proposed Severn River Bridge
The Annapolis residents are per-
turbed over effects of the present
blueprints which would, they say
condemn the homes Of several
hundred Negro families.
State Senator William F. Stroh-
meyer and Delegate Clarence E.
Tyler said the roads commission
in 1899 had worked out plan to
utilize the Baltimore and Annap-
oils right OF way for a new Severn
span. And Annapolis authorities.
they declared. had planned its
slum cleanance in accordance
with that proposal.
Now the State Roads Commis-
sion has completely ignored this
earlier decision and plans to up
root several hundred persons. "

The men have been at liberty

The raid was led by David H.

partment's public information Of

Mr.. Wallace said that when
the speedboat closed in on the
Maryland oystermen shortly after
daybreak, they scattered and
ignored orders to halt.
The enforcement officers then
ran the feet down, one boat at
a time. An agent was left on
each boat, then the speedboat

bishop Damaskinos relinquished
the position.
The giant bell of the Greek
Orthodox Cathedral tolled the
news of the archbishop's death.
The towering, bespectacled
cleric won a reputation in the
United States when he went there
in the 20s and mediated a quarrel,
largely political, between factions
of the Greek Orthodox Church.
He was elected Archbishop of
Athens and Primate of Greece in
November, 1898.
During the Nazi occupation.
Archbishop Damaskinos displayed
great energy in alleviating the dis
tress of the civilian population.
He made repeated representa-
tions to German and Italian mill
tary authorities when executions
or arrests were about to be made.
At one time he offered himself
to the Germans as a hostage for
his people, and in Salonika, he
openly defended the Jewish COM
munity under the Nazi occupation.
The Germans placed him under
house arrest in the last six months
of the occupation.

of Foreign Ministers on this sub
ject. The United States Govern
ment and the democracies of West
ern Europe have undertaken a
series of steps, the most important
of which have been the European
Recovery Program and the North
Atlantic pact, which have already
contributed to great change for
the better in the situation in West
ern Europe. Real progress has been
made in the direction of recovery
and the resumption of conditions of
stability and health throughout this
community.
Progress has likewise been made,
both economic and political, in the
parts of Germany which have been
the responsibility of the three West
ern powers. The confidence voiced
by Marshall in regard to the vitality
of the free countries of Western
Europe has been fully justified.
These countries, with our assistance,
have demonstrated their ability to-
rehabilitate Western European
civilization with its freedoms intact.
1t is not our intention, no matter
how much be may desire agreement,
to accept anything which would tend
to undo what has been accomplished
or. impede future progress along the
course we have charted toward the
revival of health and strength for
the free nations of the world.
The people of the United States
have already demonstrated that
they can act with firmness and de-
termination in the face of situations
which looked disheartening and
even almost hopeless. If there is
more hope in the air today, it is in
no small measure due, I believe, to-
the vigorous and courageous man
ner in which the people of this
country have reacted in these cir
cumstances.
We must not forget the lesson
that recent history has taught us.
1t would be tragic, indeed, if the
first signs of success of the vast
efforts made in the past should be
so misinterpreted as to lead us to
slackening our efforts prematurely
We must, and I am confident that
we will, demonstrate that we have
the same calmness, the same reso-
luton of purpose in successful
achievement as we did in more ad-
verse circumstances.
There is perhaps nothing more
in the world today than
the steadiness and consistency of the
foreign policy of this republic. Too
much depends on the United States

for us to indulge in the luxury OF
either undue pessimism or prema-
ture optimism.
Our foreign policy has been and
must continue to be guided by the
fundamental interests of the United
States in our quest for a world OF
peace and security. We cannot allow
it to become subject to the f1uctua-
tions produced by a raising and low
ering of the international tempera-
ture. To accept these fluctuations
as a guide for our policy would be
to put in foreign hands large
measure of control over the conduct
of our foreign relations.
Position Improved.
We shall neglect no real oppor-
tunity for increasing the area Of
solution and tranquility in the
world. At the same time, we shall
not barter away successes achieved
for the sake of promises which might
again prove to be illusory, as they
too often have in the past.
1t remains to be seen whether the
present favorable developments
have brought about a situation in
which workable and effective agree
ments be reached with the Soviet
Union on the central problem of
Germany. I think perhaps we have
better opportunity to do so than
we have had before. We most Ger
tainly are now in a better position
to deal with the consequences of
failure.
I cannot, therefore, honestly state
whether or not this new attempt
will end In success. No one can tell.
The answer will nave to await the
meeting of the Council of Foreign
Ministers itself. / can only say
that, as in the past, the United
States representatives will approach
this meeting with an open mind and
with an honest intention to ex-
plore all possibilities to arrive at a
lasting solution of the problem of
Germany. I have already outlined
in an address before the Society
of Newspapers Editors the main con-
siderations which have guided us
and will continue to guide our
policy in regard to Germany.
I have just met with the members
of the Foreign Relations Committee
in executive session. We discussed
our policies and plans in regard to
the coming meeting, and I asked
their advice on the many problems
respecting Germany for which We
hope to arrive at solutions in Paris
