u. n. Diplomats View
Soviet Atom Blast
AS. Bargaining Threat
BY the Asseeioied Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, Oct.
4.-Some U. N. diplomats specu-
lated today that the Soviet Union
touched off its latest reported
atomic explosion as a demonstra-
ton of force to back up Moscow's S
bargaining in critical world dis
cuSsions.
They pointed out the U. N. Gen.
eral Assembly will open in Paris
for its sixth session on November
Is. The Russian atom bomb re-
ports have catapulted the atomic
problem back into high-priority
rating on the assembly calendar.
There was some speculation that
Moscow may also have designed
its demonstration to back up
Russian bargaining if Moscow gets
agreement on holding Big -Four
conference.
Dormant Since '49.
The atomic question has been
dormant in the U. N. since the
White House announced in Sep
tember, 1949, that the Russians
had the atomic secret. Demands
followed for U. N. decision on
plans for atomic control. But the
problem dragged along between
unyielding United States and
Soviet proposals.
President Truman suggested last
year that the United Nations
Atomic Energy Commission, Gre
ated by the General Assembly
January "a. 1916, could be merged
with the United Nations Commits
sion for Conventional Armaments,
set up in 1916 to plan for dis
armament.
Ask Single Commission.
A committee of IL approved
by the last General Assembly in
dorsed the merger plan several
weeks ago. 1t calls for a single
commission of II members re-
sponsible to the Security Council.
This plan will come up for final
approval in the Paris assembly.
The Russians opposed the
merger plan because it includes a
sentence indorsing once more the
majority plan for control of atomic
energy.
That plan. built upon a proposal
made in 1916 by Bernard M.
Baruch. then United States dele
gate. calls for control of atomic
energy by an international COM
mission and effective safeguards
against evasion of the atomic
code.

In this community we sensed
the reverberations that 60 with
good news. Here and in environs
there is deep interest in the Ku
Klux Klan's threat of a lawsuit
against the North Carolina Junior
Chamber of Commerce for de-
scribing the xxx as un-Ameri-

suit be for a million. The Durham
Herald commented editorially
that the Jaycees will be disap-
pointed because the Khan twill
hardly advance such a suit" The
paper went on to state that
xxx rally was a flop, poorly at
tended, "for the vicious race hate
preached there was foreign to
America and seemed rather like
something left over from the Ger
many of the thirties." The Dur
ham Herald editorial stated:
"The Khan is a debased relic of
the past age. It has no place in the
United States today. Society can
take care of it's own affairs with
out either the Klan's help or in

the Khan philosophy, we need to
get further away from it.
'The Khan amounts to little in

steadily rising against it and that
has been so pertinently expressed

Between
Covers

We fail to understand why
reputable American publishing
firms continue to publish books
on Hitler, Goering and other
Nazi leaders 1t seems to us
that the less their names are
perpetuated, the better it will be
for humanity It makes no
difference that in some of these
books unfavorable remarks are
made by the authors about this
or that action of people like Hit
Ter or Goering Take, for in
stance, Will Frischauer's "The
Rise and Fall of Hermann Goer-
ing" now published by Hough-
ton Miffin Co. ). Of course, Mr..
Frischauer is critical of Goering
how can it be otherwise-but
who wants to know anything
about Georing? -. Would it not
be better if he were forgotten as
quickly as possible Inciden-
tally, the author seems to believe
that Goering-who signed the
notorious Nuremberg laws
against Jews-was not as rabidly
anti-JeWish as Hitler or Goeb-
bells This view can be dis
puted very strongly on the basis
of the numerous ,Jew-baiting
speeches delivered by Goering,
as well as on the basis of his
severe anti-Jewish orders .
Another book that adds nothing
except the prepetuation of Hit
ler's name, is DR.. Paul Schmidt's
"Hitler's Interpreter" published
by Macmillan The author,
who was Hitler's interpreter,
tells nothing that has not been
said before He claims that he
himself was not a Nazi, but it is
obvious that he was among Hit
ler'S most trusted men At any
rate, he avoids carefully mention
in his book of anything about the
treatment of the Jews in Nazi
Germany and does not clarity his
own attitude towards the Nazi
racial theory -.

Who was Mr.. Sol. S. Coffin?
Where did he come from? What
were his pursuits during the
many years spent in Fernandina
and Jacksonville, and who was
never idle? Attending the serv-
ice as an honorary pail bearer
with number of other intimate
friends from Fernandina, I care
fully observed the mourners and
the many saddened friends in at
tendance. This observation car
ried me back many, many years.
It was in the late eighties, after
serving a term in the Tsarist
Armies of Russia as a commits
stoned officer, he began dream
ing of the distant promised
Land" America" Born in Ko-
brin, Russia, where the Gold
stems immigrated from, he soon
found and followed the blazed
trail that joined him with his
former friends. Being a skilled
mechanic, upon his arrival in
Fernandina, Mr.. Coffin, soon
found ready employment with
the old F. c. and P. Railroad now
known as the S. A. L. Always on
the alert, and full of ambition as
well as a keen business man, he
saw possibilities in the lumber
industry and soon launched into
the saw mill business which he
successfully operated, later ac-
.quiring a large portion of land,
Including several hundred feet
of river frontage on Nassau River
now known as Goffinville, and
there continued the saw mill
business. While operating on the
banks of the Nassau River, he
observed large oyster beds with

in his territory and Immediately
began the planning of an oyster
industry.
A plant was built and fully
equipped, and soon a modern
oyster packing plant was in full
operation under the name of
Nassau Packing Co. This product
was distributed from coast to
coast. In 1913, the production. of
shrimp was in its infancy, Mr..
Coffin Immediately installed the
necessary equipment for canning
shrimp. Like the oysters he dis
tributed so widely, the shrimp,
too, followed successfully and
successfully. He also operated a
plant in St. Augustine. The scar
city of shrimp in the very recent
years caused the discontinuance
of the steam-packed product.
Production and distribution Of
shrimp continued on a smaller
scale under refrigeration. While
engaged in seafood, observing
the river shores and grass marsh
es, discovered numerous terrapin
and with his ever alertness, i'm
mediately began to CORRAL ter
rapin into pens and found a
ready market for live terrapin in
the New York market.
remember an incident when
I was a little boy, shooting mar
bles on the side walks of Fern
andina and wearing out in the
knee the long stockings worn
with short pants in those days as
a result of kneeling. My Oldest
brother, shoemaker, soon found
a remedy for it. Leather knee
caps with straps. Being the proud
and only possessor of such a
novelty unseen before) 1 con-
cluded that Mr.. Sol as he was af-
fectionately called by the chill
dren, would wonder the purpose
of it and it's use. With ten cents
in my pocket, challenged Mr..
Sol with a bet that he could not
tell me what this leather trinket
was for. In spite of his many
bushes burdens, he found time
to respond with a lecture that l
have never forgotten, namely
"don't. ever think you know it all
other people know as much
and more, so be careful" and
answering readily the $4,000
question. Yes, Mr.. Coffin was al
ways a very industrious man and
knew not the meaning of idle
ness until Saturday, September
is, 800 2. M. when suddenly and
without warning he sat down in
his swivel chair at his desk,
closed his eyes and found the
relaxation, the idleness he knew
not before, and eternal rest. To
the bereaved family, my sincere
sympathy.
