Europe

Probably the chief result Of the
Berlin conference was to confirm
what the United States had been
maintaining all along: The Soviet
Unions foreign policy has not
changed q bit since the death Of
Stain. Foreign Minister Molotov,
an old Stain crony, made it plain
that Red Russia has no intention
Of relaxing its iron grip on East
Germany or Of ending the eco
nomic bleeding of Austria.
The Soviet Unions proposals for
changing the present emaciated
face Of Europe indicated no inter-
est in the peoples problems, only
in the expansion of Kremlin con-
troll over territory and population.
Moscow has no intention Of STEP
ping back an inch. In fact, Mr..
Molotov proposed that the Soviet
Union replace the United States
as the guarantor Of West European
security.
This, all hands agreed, was a
good thing to know. That the
Kremlin had thus 50 clearly ex-
posed its greedy and oppressive in
tentions was possibly the most sa-
luxurious development Of the con-
ference.
The effect Of looking, at Geneva,
for peace in Indo- China, however,
may have a further retarding ef-
feet on passage Of the European
Defense Community treaty in
France. Most observers expect the
French Parliament to postpone
EDO ratification once more, until
Geneva is over-or, worse yet, until
the questions 1t raises have been
disposed Of.
On the other hand, some hope
that the Geneva conference will
have just the opposite effect on
EDC'S chances In France. The
combination Of Mr.. Molotov's firm
ness at Berlin and the expected
failure at Geneva to get anywhere
with q negotiated peace in Indo-
China, it Is argued, will help the
French see there Is no alternative
to edo.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-02-21

however, is that the Western Big
Three actually had been able to
extract from Mr.. Molotov roughly
what Special Envoy Arthur Dean
had not been able to get from
Chinese and North Korean Reds at
Panmunjom. At Berlin, the West
succeeded In bringing the Soviet
Union to a Far East parley in a
position where she would be bound
by the decisions Of the conference,
the State Department claims. AS a
"neutral"-the role she wished to
play originally-Russia would not
have been so bound. It is main
tanned that Red China's status at
Geneva win still be that of an
outlaw belligerent, no more.
Secretary Dulles came home
Friday night insisting that the
Geneva conference terms were
100 per cent what we wanted"
He will tell Congress about it
tomorrow and the Nation Wednes-
day in a radio-TV broadcast.
Leaders like Senator Ferguson of
Michigan, Republican policy chief,
indicated they were still worried
about the degree of de-facto recog-
milton. Red China would get.
But Mr.. Molotov won other con-
cessions from the West. The much
debated furniture of the confer
ence will ne a round table," as
Moscow and London wished, in
stead of the American "oblong
table" for two-sided negotiations.
In addition, Russia has escaped
being branded a belligerent by be-
coming one Of the inviting powers.
A more ominous concession,
however, was the Vests agreement
(under French pressure) to discuss
a negotiated peace in Indo- China.
Up to now, the French have de-
manded that China stop aiding the
Wet Mimi before peace is dis
cussed. Likewise, the West now is
ready to talk about Indo-C China
even before progress has been
made on Korea. This is contrary
to Mr.. Dulles earlier formula.
Seont Hope at Geneva
There is little hope that Geneva
will produce significant results.
Mr.. Molotov has re emphasized
that Communists are as allergic as
ever to playing give-away. It is too
much to hope that they would
grant in Korea the very things
they refused Germany. Nor can the
Communist Wet Mini be expected
to give up control Of any of the
territory in Indo- China And If the
West approves a Wet Minh-Viet
Nam coalition it is counting an
other Czechoslovakia.
Moscow also succeeded in get
ting Red China back into confer
ence with the United States with
out retracting the charge Of per
f1dy" that caused Special Envoy
Arthur Dean to break OF the Pan
munjom talks
Mr.. Molotov on the other hand
did not walk away with all the ad-
vantages. He did not get Red
China q seat at an all inclusive
Big-Eive conference on the state
of the world. He mad to settle
for conversations on two specific
areas: Korea and Indo- China. He
couldn't avoid de facto recognition
of South Korea, either. just as the
United States had to recognize Red
China in effect. Whether he would
stand for Wet Nam. Laos and
Cambodia sitting in at Geneva was
one Of the problems the Big Four
avoided settling at Berlin.
There was one other benefit from
the conference which Mr.. Dulles
alluded to that might be more Inn
portant than all the rest. He said
the discussions had made 1t "less
likely that any Of us should by in
advertence and characterization do
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-02-21

what would risk another war" He
seemed to be saying that by getting
a clearer understanding of how
far each side could be pushed, they
had reduced the prospects for
world-encompassing atom war. If
that Is indeed the result of Berlin,
the tedious hours will have been
well spent.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-02-21

As ! spe0k for the Lost time ct this
conference, ! cannot but record large
measure Of regret. We have foiIed to
satisfy the hopes which mony throughout
the world placed in US. ! refer porticu-
IorIy to the peoples Of Eost and West
Germony and Of Austria.
nN THIS CANDID, somber note,
" John Foster Dulles began his
farewell address to the Big Four
foreign ministers, who concluded
nearly four weeks Of talk In Ber-
lin last Thursday.
The American Secretary Of State
had come to Berlin late In Janu-
airy determined to discuss only
Germany and Austria, mildly
hopeful that something could be
done about reuniting the former
and getting q peace treaty for the
latter.
He came away this week end
with German partition and Aus
TRAN occupation frozen more SOL
idly than when he went In. What
is more, he had agreed with Great
Britain and France to something
he had maintained earlier was out
of this conferences ken: A high
powered meeting on Korea and
Indo-C China at Geneva beginning
April 26, to which Red China would
be invited along with other bellig-
erentS Of the Korean and mdo-
Chinese wars.
Thus Mr.. Dulles. ate the words
he had spoken only three weeks
before: $50 far all this conference
has done is to discuss futilely how
to create q new conference. 1t
seems to me that If conferences
can do nothing better +. the
whole conference method win be-
come an object of ridicule, and we
with it."
No Ridicule-Yet
The world wasn't ready to ridi-
eule the plan to hold another con-
ference at Geneva in two months,
but on the other hand there was
little hope that more talk would
solve anything.
If q profit-and-loss statement
could be written on the Berlin con-
ference, it probably would show
that the Western powers scored
the most points on European ques-
tons (by exposing Russia's ruth
less policies toward Germany and
Austria) while the Kremlin won
the rounds on the Far East (by
getting the United States and
France to risk a split over negoti-
ating peace in Indo-China).
Great Britain, the United States
and France also came out OF the
Berlin talks more closely knit to-
gether than when they went In.
Mr.. Molotov's attacks, intended to
be devisive, had back1red. Even the
Germans were finding Frances M.
Georges Bidault commercially
stalwart ally.

Charles J. Mari, prominent
architect from New Philadelphia,
attended this meeting and held
an open forum on all important
information necessary for the
building of such a hospital.

development fund for the sur
vey and other necessary expense
in obtaining a hospital for this
county.

fields and streets.
This was the first tornado
OF any consequence in this
area since 1896.
From all reports, it is believed
that the Caldwell and Harrietts-
vile communities were hardest
hit by the winds. There was more
rain reported in the northern
parts of the county than the 81
inch rainfall reported in Sharon
by Weatherman Frank Burlin-
game. The unofficial report for
Caldwell was rs inch.
Crop damage was terrific
throughout Noble county and
other losses included torn roofs,
bent and broken television
aerials, numberless tree torn
from their base, broken windows
and doors, complete losses of a
number of buildings, in addition
to losses from lightning strikes.

highest sites in the county, was
damaged, possibly to the extent

damaged the roof beams. The
hard rains through the battered
roof made several square yards
of plaster fall from the ceilings.

dead. If they are noticed sick, the
ewes will be inflamed and the eye
lids stuck together. The cats refuse
to eat and they may try to vomit.
They are very depressed and weak.
1t isn't long until severe diarrhea
develops. The temperatures will
range between 105 to 107.
The disease is caused by a filter
able virus. 1t is spread by direct or
indirect contact and is very, very
infectious.
Once in a while a particularly
hearty cat will survive the infection
or is resistant to the infection. Keep
that cat because it is immune to the
disease. If a female cat possesses an
immunity to the disease, her kit
tens will most always live to wean-
ing time. Right after weaving, on the
infected ranch, all the kittens get
sick and die.
Veterinarians find that early treat
ment with an antiserum in combina-
ton with antibiotics have resulted
in quite high rate of recovery.
Since the disease can progress very
rapidly, the treatment must be
started promptly.
The routine use of a feline dis
temper vaccine on the cats just prior
to weaving or on cats prior to bring
ing them to the infected ranch is the
only way known to prevent the dis
ease. Proper vaccination has proven
very effective in controlling feline
"distemper."
