Of any type Of control which
hampered the new Western Ger
man government.
In two long speeches during the
afternoon. Mr.. Vishinsky de-
Tended the veto and talked highly
of economic progress in the east
tern zone, long a secret area so
far as Western eyes are con-
cerned.
He appealed for restoration of
the four-power Allied Control
Council, on which each nation
had q veto. This board collapsed

Of the veto by the Russian repre-
sentative,

Russia proposed to the Foreign
Ministers Conference that high
ranking German control board be
formed to run the conquered
country-but that each of the Big
Four should retain a veto over it.
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
Vishinsky also gave an economic
look behind the iron curtain
which Western observers at the
meeting said left the Western
Ministers skeptical and even hu-
morously misbelieving.
Yesterdays was the fourth ses-
sion of the council. The sessions
have become progressively longer
since the first one.
"It is getting to be just like
old times" an American delegate
commented in describing the ses-
sion, which ran for nearly four
hours in the Pink Marble Palace
near Paris famous Bologne
Woods.
Western spokesmen gave this
picture Of the meeting:
The clash Of East and West
seemed to be increasingly solid.

cision was wise.

Russians Say Nothing.
The Russians said nothing. This
was an impasse for the West
which appeared worse than any
the Russians may have dreamed
up when they imposed the block
ade last June.
The Reichsbahn-The Soviet
controlled elevated rail manage
ment-notified the Allies of the
West it was sending in repair
crews, implying it wanted pro-
lection for such crews.
This raised the fear Of a re
vival of the riotous battles which
ragged between strikers and Com
munist strikebreakers early in the
week, taking two lives. Strikers
have not hesitated to WELD clubs,
hurl rocks and swing fists in the
face of pistol fire from East sector
German police. Now the strikers
are populating areas where the
tracks are ripped up. the switches
are locked and the signals dis
connected.
An American official said this
was a matter for the West German
police now. The West sector
police have taken over. on the Or
ders of the Allied commandants
after sending away the Russian
controlled East German police,
who had guarded the stations and
installations. Technically, under
four-power agreement. the Rus

ED LOEHRKE DESIGNER
OF STREET MARKERS

Ed Loehrke is the designer
of the concrete Street Markers,
which are being built under the
sponsorship of the Zion Ex-
change Club, for installation at
the various street corners in
Zion. Ed donated all of the
necessary time to design the
Markers and built the forms,
so that pouring of the concrete
to make the Markers could be
handled effectively.
Most of the materials for
these Markers have been fur
nished at cost by the Benton
Lumber Company.
The Markers are poured Is
at time, and as soon as the
cement has set sufficiently,
they are removed from the
forms and placed in storage at
the City yards. The Markers
will be allowed to dry and thor
oughly cure, and then will be
installed at the various street
corners.
Jim Hotham, President of
the Zion Exchange Club, point
ed out that the members of the
Zion Exchange Club, who are
sponsors of the project, could
use some additional volunteer
help. Anyone interested should
contact him, or Exchangite Ed

 No wants check the growth of the physical sci onces but the future of mankind will depend on the r""o~S he achieves in catching up with the develop r'ort in the physical chemical md conventional medi- cal sciences in the psychological and social sciences
 Dr. Winslow urges that efforts be made to close the gap in the progress of these other sciences before too late For the atomic bomb to be released as method of indiscrinnate warfare, there could be public health private health Such indscrminate use of the destructive power of the atomic bomb in warfare would tend to destroy modern civilization and send men back to the caves.

 William Green, president of the American Fedora ton of Labor in outlining the legislative program of the AFL in 1941 declared
 Insurance for permanent and temporary disability should be enacted immediately We believe this should be the first step toward farreachng national program of health insurance, which is ultimate goal.
 Much is to be said both for and against state disab ity insurance Obviously, its widespread installation would make much easier the enactment of government medical insurance, although this would not be n- evtable In any case something of the background and implications of compulsory disability insurance may be useful.
