like the one who'd killed Johnny Dodds.
That one had walked into bar on Geary
Street, quietly sat down and ordered a
drink. Then he'd suddenly pulled out SO
revolver and threatened to kill everyone in
the place.
Devin and Johnny Dodds had taken the
call. They had posted the uniformed Off
GERS outside, two in front, two in back
Then he and Johnny had walked inside.
1T HAD looked as if they were going to
do it easily. The man had Gained by then,
sitting silently at the bar. staring straight
ahead. But just as Johnny reached the bar,
the man had whirled, gun in hand, and
started firing.
When it was over, Devin had wounded
and captured the man, but not before
Johnny Dodds had been killed.
DeWn had remained very calm. Later,
he'd even taken the responsibility of telling
Johnny's wife. But then - he'd come apart

Devin nodded. Lei him get out, he
thought. Let him get all the way out, so
that I'm not around when it's time to get
him.
HE WAS sick and disguised for admitting
his fear, but it was all he could do. Conroy
himself, long ago, had said. Its nothing
to fall down, Tom. It's nothing to make
an error, to get scared, to get into trouble.
But the disgrace is not to fight back. No
man is worth anything to himself or to
anyone else who won't fight back. Remem-
Der that. Tom
And Devin had remembered. In fact,
he'd lived by that advice all these years;
and now, that was what made it worse.

book hy the late Edward Stet-
tiniusa book which. cliriously
enough. contains many favor
able references to Hiss. Any
way. Hiss quotes Stettinius
with whom he worked closely
at Yalta--as saying the Yalta
Conference shows clearly that
the Soviet Union made greater
concessions than were
made to them. /" Hiss continues:
aThe myth has It that Po-
land was given away, The
Red Army had driven the
Nazis from Poland and had
occupied it as thoroughly as
we were to complete our oc-
cupation of the Philippines Q
few weeks later.
I'VE could no more give
Poland to the Russians than
they could give the Philip-
pines to us. We and the Brit
ish did seek . Western form Of
government for Poland. In
this we succeeded only par-
tally and later those partial
successes were wiped out a.
the cold war liquidated these
and other East-West compro-
misses. I.
But Hiss forgets that the
Atlantic Charter. signed BY
Russia. pledged all the sigma
tories TO - desire TO see no
territorial changes that do not
accord with the freely ex-

Outcome Of New Jersey Election
Could Boost Democrat Stocks

NEWARK, N. J.-Only q few
elections this fan could possibly
be construed as straws in the
prepresidential wind, One Of
them is in New Jersey where
q whole new Assembly and half
the State Senate viii be elected
on November 8.
IN 1858, New Jersey elected
q Democratic Governor, Robert
Meyner, signaling q resurgent
Democratic tide which in 1854
put the party back in control
Of Congress and gave It n
governorships. Meyner now has
put his own prestige on the line
in an attempt to end Al years
Of uninterrupted Republican
domination Of the Legislature.
Meyner himself insists that
State elections should be re-
garded as purely State affairs.
He praises New Jerseys plan Of
electing its Governor and Leg
islature in otf-years and be-
lieves that many county-leEel
races are merely personality
contests.
Nonetheless II his own ef-
forts, which be has centered
on issues not people, bring
profoundly Democratic results.

Years Of Lost Opportunities

Beria affair and q series of
purges In the Soviet Union and
the satellite states. Again the
West had an opportunity for
q real political offensive, from
q position OF relative strength.
In June came the rising Of
workers In the Russian zone Of
Germany which registered the
instinct Of the populace sthat
Russia could be defled. IT
caught the German Volkspo-
lizei--the Communist govern
ment's German police off
guard. They hardly raised q
hand to deal with IL. and even
tually the Russians suppressed
it with tanks.
But it caught the Western
powers and the West German
government equally of guard.
What they had hoped for had
happened but they had not the
foggiest notion Of what to do.
Thus the history Of the last
three years Is q history OF
lost opportunities. There Is
not the slightest sign of con-
fusion in the Soviet today.
Chancellor Adenauer received
a very real shock in Moscow
when he felt the iron hand
under the velvet glove of the
Russian leaders. Nor is there
any sign whatever that the
Russians will be interested In
the collective security pro-
posals Of Mr.. Eden.
Since Geneva they have very
cleverly washed their hands
Of the German problem by
putting 1t up to the two Ger
manys to negotiate for their
own reunification.
Yet. Q high Russian official
repeatedly told a German jour-
ralist accompanying the Ade-
nauer delegation to Moscow
that Russia still held to the
Russian note Of March, 1862.
And 1t seems TO me that this
question, Of whether the note
still represents Russian policy.
should be asked now. In. 0e-
ileva, and its real meaning ex-
piored.
