Does the White Paper" omit mention of Lattimcre's advisorship, how it was arranged and what it's purpose was, because of the umpopu- larity of those who are regarded as being or having been pro-Rus- sian?
 And I have been locking for a full report of Francis B. Sayre's visit to Japan which is part of the China story. Sayre was in Tokyo on May 3, 1940 and, according to Japanese evidence, proposed that Roosevelt should negotiate between the Japanese and Chiang kai-Shek to end their war. This was before Pearl Harbor and could have pre- vented that event. Not word of it in the White Paper.'
 Here is book of 1054 pages, without an index, which is supposed to tell all. But all is not told. In fact. the most vital facts are om- itted.

MAR00NFLN AUTOS
 TAKEN OFF FI0ES

OSHKOSH, Wis, Jan. I8-R-- Hundreds of automobiles were driv- en gingerly off Lake Winnebago yesterday after they had been mar ooned overnight on huge ice foe.
 About 450 cars and 1000 or more ice fishermen were cut off from shore Sunday when a strong wind caused a break in the ice and created the huge floe.
 The fishermen were brough. to land by boat, but automobiles re- mained on the foe and their drivers pondered how to retrieve them.
 Then the Wisconsin Conservation Department located a bridge of solid ice leading to shore near Chiffon, across the lake from Osh- kosh.

OWNER OF FAMILY
 GAR RESPONSIBLE
 FOR DAMAGE DONE


 ANCHORACiE-Junior is going to have more trouble getting the family car in view of an opinion handed down in Third District Cour6.
 Judge Anthony J. Dimond held that the owner of car purchased for family use is financially re- sponsi.le while that car is being driven by another member of the family-and is liable for injuries
 inflicted by the vehicle.
 It was the first ruling of it's kind to issue from any district court in Alaska.
 The opinion was given in con- nsction with George E. Burns, s15.o acc dent injury damage suit a a2ainst L. T. Main and 18-yea1 -old Tom Main. Judge Dimond denied q defense motion for dismissal Of the case.
 Tom Main was driving his fathers car shortly after midnight on Aug. 21 when it hit Burns at the inter section of Fourth. Avenue and c Street. The youth claimed Burns walked into the side of the car, but the latter sued for damages charg- ing that the automobile was de- fcctive and that young Main was driving recklessly.
 Tn his opinion, Judge Dimond stated that the family purpose doctrine is of comparatively recent o, igin and rapid growth.
 Tt holds that the owner of an automobile which was purchased and maintained for the use and pleasure of his family, is liable for injuries inflicted by the vehicle while it is being used by members of his family for their own pleasure, recreation or other purpose.
 "Tne theory on which this doc trine is 1ased is that the car while 60 used by some member of the family is being used for the pur- pose or business for which it was kept, and that the person operat- ing it other than the owner was, therefore, acting as the owners agent or servant in so using it.
 Tt" (the doctrine), Judge Di- mond continued later in his opln- ion, lis supported by definite and logical considerations: principally the financial responsibility of the owner is thus always associated with a motor car while it is being used by another member of the family-who is likely to be finan- cially irresponsible the pursuit and furtherance of the purpose for which the car is kept"
 Judge Dimond admitted that the family purpose doctrine has been rejected oy some courts, and adopted by others.
 Tt is most clearly applied, the judge wrote, in ceases where the injured person seeks to hold the owner of the car kept for family use liable for an injury caused by it while one of the children of the family was using it."
 Judge Dimond cited a judgment of the Ninth District Court of Ap- peals where recovery was ordered in accordance with the family car doctrine"
 we are of the opinion" the ap- peals court decided, that under the family car doctrine of Ari- zona, the husband individually would be liable for negligent con- duct Of his wife in driving the family automobile"

pRopAGANDA BY OMISSION


 It is an axiom in evidence that if it is possible to prove that a witness is untruthful in some mat ters, it is assumable that he is un- truthful in all matters. It is for this reason that lawyers try to break down the integrity and truthfulness If unfriendly witnesses, so that the jury will believe nothing they have said.
 Recently, while going through the State Departments White Paper on China" prepared by Dean Acheson, I came across this para graph
 T have tss...s proposal to rcake: That General Patrick J. Hurley. Be designated by me as my personal representative with you. He should be Of great service in ad- justing relatiors between you and General Stiiwell. .''
 I wondered what all the dots were about. Instead of making in- quiries of the State Department, which I am sure would tell me nothing, I looked elsewhere and found that the omissions represent cd nothing of national policy which needed to be kept from the Am- erican people. This particular mes- sage is crucial, because it was on account of the questions it raised that General Stilwell and Chiang kai-Shek broke up, and it was be- cause of this break that the Formo- sa issue is now before us. So l wanted the message straight
 I found that in his message to Chiang kai-Shek, President Roose- welt said that General Hurley had bread political and business eXper- fence that Hurley had served act ively and with distinction in the army in the First World War; that he had been Secretary of war and the army we'll Then the President said, and 1 quote from an excellent source:
 General Hurley is a well-known and respected figure in the public life of this country"
 Now why all this omitted? Why was it put in dots? What national calamity would have ensued had President Roosevelt's commenda- tion of Hurley been published? Is is because Hurley got into a TOW with the left wing elements in the State Department and the left wing and magazine writ CTS then in China? Precisely what did Dean Acheson think he was accomplishing when he suppressed a compliment to General Hurley in a message from Roosevelt to Chiang 
 Or take these facts:
 President Roosevelt sent Lauch- lin Currie 70 Chiang kai-Shek in 1940 and on two other missions af- ter Pearl Harbor. I have been seek ing references to these missions in the White Paper but cannot find them. The White Paper" is 1854 pages long and was issued or the hottest day of the summer, un- in the hope that no one would read the look painstakingly. There is no index. Therefore, one has to go page by page. And ! have gone page by page without dis covering these visits of Lauchlin Currie. He was mentioned in the testimony of Whitaker Chambers and Elizabeth Bentley. Is that why he was omitted from the White paper?'
 Or take Owen Lattimore He was sent by President Roosevelt in July, 1941, as adviser to Chiang kai-Shek. I am informed most au- thoritatively that Chiang kai-Shek never requested that Owen Lat timore he sent to him. Owen Latti- more has been regarded by many as

A flve-na'Cion investigating COM

in the Caribbean is being con-
sidered by the council. amid indi-
cations that action on the report
may be delayed for subcommittee

The investigating committee

public.
Asks Arms Reduction.
Haitian Foreign Minister Vilfort
Beauvoir proposed resolution
yesterday calling On the Domin-
ican Republic to reduce her arma-
ments program and establish a
military balance with Haiti and
other countries in the area.
Cuban Foreign Minister Ernesto

root Of the trouble in the Carib-
bean. He said Dominican exiles
