Russia Will Present
Jap Peace Proposals
Despite U. 5. Stand
Announcement of Plans
For Action at PorIey
Is Mode in Press
BY the Associufed Press

MOSCOW. Aug. 1.-THE Soviet
press published today an official
announcement apparently in
tended to inform the United
States that Soviet Russia will
present proposals at the japanese
peace treaty conference in spite
of the Americans stipulations to
the contrary.
The United States Government
informed the U. S. S. r. yester-
day in effect that Soviet activities
as the San Francisco conference
opening September 4 should be
confined either to signing the
japanese peace treaty of stating
MoScow's reasons why it rejects
the draft. The United States has
made it plain that the conference
is not one "to reopen negotiations
on the terms of peace"
Western observers here say the
Soviets can be expected to raise
many objections to the draft
treaty which Washington de-
scribed as final. But there are
some among these diplomatic
observers who say that Russia
may go along with the treaty
after stating her objections.
The announcement carried by
Moscow radio and all the press
today said the Russians not only
would attend the parley but would
present proposals" Thus, the
Soviet people first learned that
their government was taking part
in the conference. The announce
ment did not attack the conference
as such, but only the American

without Mr.. Nelson as the star
witness. The committee was told
by its counsel that so far the
search for Mr.. Nelson was un-
successful.
Mr.. Nelson's net worth state
ment and other items from his
books were introduced, however,
during the questioning of his farm
bookkeeper. Mrs. Leona Weight
man, 3014 Parkway. Cheverly. Md.
Committee Counsel Downey Rice
introduced the statement of Mr..
Nelson's net worth. as prepared by
the Ritchie CMdD sportsman. 1t
showed a total of $469, ,360.07
When Mr.. Nelson testified before
the committee last week he
guessed his net worth at "a couple
hundred thousand dollars"
Bookkeeper Can't Explain Items
Mrs. Weightman was asked by
MIR. Rice how she accounted fo1
an item in Mr.. Nelson's books OF
$4,000 to $4,000 a year labeled
good will"
II imagine it's for donations tc
churches and things" she replied
wouldn't that be listed under
religious contributions" Chair
man O'Conor asked.
Il truthfully don't know" the
witness replied.
Mrs. Weightman was asked why
Mr.. Nelson paid no taxes for 1850
although he showed a gain of
SIS, 900.
Mrs. Weightman replied-as she
did to other questions-that she
simply copied the figures and
didn't know what they meant.
The committee also was inter-
ested in an item of the 1850 tax
return which showed that Mr.. Nell
son charged off $2,079 in auto ex-
penseS at 7 cents a mile on
seven cars. some of which Mrs.
Weightman thought belonged to
other people. But Mrs. Weight
man couldn't explain that either.
Couldn't Reach Employer.
''1t looks like we need Nelson -
commented Senator Kefauver,
Democrat, Of Tennessee, who was
presiding over the session.
Mrs. Weightman testified that
Mr.. Nelson told her on Wednesday
night that he was going away and
asked her to mail his net-worth
statement to the committee.
She said Mr. Nelson told her
he was going fishing but not where
he was going. whom he was going
with, nor when he was coming
back.
Under committee questioning
she said she did not know where
he is now, does not know where
he usually does his fishing and
does not know who would know
She said she would not know how
to reach him even in the event
of such an emergency as a family
illness.
The committee was still hoping
that Mr.. Nelson would show up
of his own accord this afternoon
when the man Mrs. Weightman
said helped him prepare his net
worth statement was to take the
stand.
That witness is to be Samuel R.
Huey, a public accountant who
lives at 1913 Ingraham street NV.

Stocks and InfIution

The cartoon in your issue of January
6, in which the stock market dances with
the cost of living, while j. @. Public pays
the fiddler, emphasized the fallacy to
which most people subscribe with respect
to stock prices.
Stock prices as we'll as other prices
merely reflect the relationship between
the supply Of money and the supply of
goods or things" Therefore many peo-
pie seem to think that the Government
should take measures to prevent the
normal rise in the prices of equities when
the control of other prices is being at
tempted.
However, efforts on the part of govern
ment to prevent bull market in stocks
during periods of imitation indicate
complete ignorance of the implications
involved. Rising stock prices, instead of
adding to inf1ationary pressures. actually
act as a pop-off valve in relieving such
pressures. The more money the consum-
ing public invests in stocks, the less
money there is for the purchase of things
to eat wear, ride in, and otherwise enjoy.
Therefore, as stock prices advance, the
upward pressure on the prices of con-
sumer goods is correspondingly relieved.
Why, then, since no one is forced to

Not to Be Trusted

The tone of your editorial, Threatened
Yugoslavia" (January A., should be COM
mented on.
During World War H. most of our
newspapers were filled with the gallant
deeds of our wonderful allies, the Rus
slams. The Star printed many articles
which praised the Russians and nearly
deified Stalin They were fighting for
democracy"-how often we saw those
words!
A few years after the war ended, the
people of the country began to awake
to the fact that Communism was our
enemy: that Stain was not good old
joe" Let us not make the same mistake
with Tito.
Tito is an avowed Communist. despite
the fact that he and Stain are not on
good terms at the moment. We will well
come any help we can get in a war
with Russia, but we need not be deluded
about those who happen to have Russia
as a common enemy. The public should
be informed that our friendship with
Tito is one fostered by necessity. Please
don't ram him down the throats of
Americans as another Great White
Father. Tito is not to be trusted. and
that fact should be dominant in our
thinking. Sensible American.

Make the Parkway More Useful

Arlington Countys request that the Federal
Public Roads Administration provide connec-
tion between the Key Bridge and the recently
opened Spout Run link of the George Washing
ton Memorial Parkway is a reasonable one.
Arlington and the State of Virginia put up half
the cost of the parkway unit with the under
standing that the section from Key Bridge to
the Cherrydale area would be not only scenic
drive but a traffic relief bypass for congested
Lee Highway. But the parkway's utilitarian
value has been greatly reduced by failure to build
an access ramp for Virginia bound Key Bridge
traffic. This traffic still must use Lee Highway
to reach Cherrydale or communities beyond
Virginia has offered to share the cost of
constructing such a ramp. This offer should
be accepted by the Federal authorities. Mean
while, full use of the parkway is being hampered
by Arlingtons delay in completing work on roads
linking the boulevard with Lorcom Lane and
Lee Highway. This work should be expedited,
regardless of what is done about the Key Bridge
ramp proposal.
