Eight years have passed

the U. S. S. r.. the United
States of America, Britain and
France, over Hitlerite Fascism
and the end of the Second
World War. The Soviet people
carried on their shoulders the
main burden of the great
struggle. They did this in
order to defend the freedom
and independence of their
Fatherland, to help the en-
slaved peoples of Europe in
the liberation from the Fascist
yoke and to ensure after the
end of the war a stable
peace and international Sc

as before, is striving for the
development of international
collaboration. In speeches Of
Comrades Malenkov ,Beria and
Molotov on 9th March. 1858,
is expressed the unalterable
will of the Soviet people for
strengthening general peace.
On 10th April U. S. Presi-
dent Eisenhower, spoke to the
American Society Of Editors
on questions devoted to the
international situation. This
speech comes as if as an
answer to the recent state
ment of the Soviet govern
ment on the possibility of a
peaceful settlement of disput-
able international questions.
y p y
Those wishing to see in
Eisenhower'S speech a real
striving for peace cannot but
ask, why was it necessary for
the President, in a speech
calling for peace to threaten
unequivocally with the posi-
bility of an atom war? It is
possible that such kind of
arguments will make the
speech of the President about
peace more convincing? In
any case as regards the Soviet
Union such arguments, or
speaking more plainly. such
threats, have never attained
and cannot attain their pur-
pose.
The President touched in his
speech upon whole series of
international problems whose
significance is not equal. {.
Let us turn then to those
important international prob
lens on whose correct solution
depends the strengthening of
peace -.
Korea.
The Soviet people invariably
supported all steps directed
toward concluding just truce
in Korea. The recent sugges-
ton of the governments of the
Chinese Peoples Republic and
the Korean Peoples Demo-
cratic Republic which gave a
new chance of going from
words to deeds. and which
opened prospects for the end
of the war in Korea, was i'm
mediately supported by the
Soviet government.
Germany.
In the United States Presi-
dents speech there is not a
basis for the solution of, this
question. He did not take

River Pollution Cure Seen
Worse Than Original Problem

rector of sanitary engineering
for the District, and former head
of the treatment plant, told how
a simple discovery increased
plant capacity at time when
population was growing and con-
struction materials were unavail-
able.
He said it was found that by
compressing the gas rising from
sludge digestion tanks and re-
turning it to the tanks under
pressure, a settlement of scum
was removed from the top of the
tanks and their capacity was
thereby doubled.
While most of the discussion
at yesterdays forum concerned
technical methods of industrial
waste treatment and disposal, it
was brought out that industry in
the Potomac Basin, under a Sys-
tenn of voluntary cooperation,
decreased its pollution at least
9 per cent last year, and 43 per
cent in the last six years.

HAGERSTOWN, Md. Nov. 20.
The Washington Metropolitan
Area may face a grave pollution
problem in the Potomac River,
even after complete sewage
treatment facilities have been
provided.
This was brought out here
yesterday at an industrial waste
treatment forum sponsored by
the industrial committee of the
Interstate Commission on the
Potomac River Basin.
Edwin r. Cotton, commission
director, explained it like this:
While treatment of sewage
removes a large portion of this
pollution from the river, these
plants will discharge into the
river large amounts of nitrates,
phosphateS and other COM
pounds that will provide perfect
food for algae and planktenS.
Cause Trouble.
The result will be, he ex-
planned, that these tiny organ
isms may build up at such a
fast rate that their death and
decomposition may pollute the
river.
With the control of pollution
proceeding at a satisfactory pace,
he said, it is now important that
steps be taken to provide treat
ment plants that will remove
these other compounds from the
waste matter that enters the
streams,
Pollution from algae and plank
ton growth, he said, could be as
offensive as pollution from
wastes. He urged that study be
given to new treatment plant de-
signed to Offset this possible
problem.
Capacity Doubled.
It was brought out here for
the first time how a new process
developed by employees of the
District of Columbia sewage
treatment plant, averted a dis

Barden Pessimistic
On Prospects !. for
1aft-Ha1Iey Change
BY the Assoeio,ed Press

Representative Barden, DEM
ocrat. of North Carolina, said to-
day he expects the next session
of Congress to produce political
storms which will greatly lessen
prospects for revising the Taft
Hartley labor-management law.
"The time for operating on
that patient" he said in an in
terview, twas when there was
little heat, excitement and con-
fusion"
And Mr.. Barden, who is the
senior Democrat on the House
Labor Committee, predicted
there will be plenty of excitement
in Congress with election coming
up next year.
He said he would not hazard a
guess on whether the adminis-
tration will be able to make good
on President Eisenhower re-
Gently renewed pledge to over
haul the Taft-Hartley Act.
Mr.. Barden said he wasn't dis
appointed by failure of Congress
to act on suggested changes in
the law last spring or summer.
But he indicated he had ex-
pected the administration would
push for congressional action.
II didn't know we were going
to hold those lengthy hearings,
let everybody and his brother
come up and testify, and then
just 'whish' it off the board"
MI. Barden said.
Mr.. Barden said the labor
management problem is so many
sided that it is impossible for
members to steer a safe politi-
cal course through it.
mo matter how you vote on
the various phases of the law"
he said, 'you are bound to meet
with criticism. You will catch
hell if you put something in it
and you will catch hell if you
leave something out.
And with the elections COM
ing up. it is going to be brutal to
put some of these fellows on the
spot"
Martin P. Durkin, Democrat
and AFL union head, quit Gen.
EiSenhower'S cabinet several
months ago because, he declared.
the President had reneged on a

riSon was one of four Marines

Capt. Felber said the man
had been to a tavern near the

an elevator upstairs, en- route to

chute is more than 3 feet above
