State Department historians
prefer to leave the evaluation
Of the whole surrender episode

opening the section of the Pots
dam papers dealing with the
surrender overtures has this to
say (deletions refer to docu-
ments and other sources:
1T has not been possible to
establish the precise extent to
which the United States dele
cation at the Berlin conference
was aware of the contents of
the papers of Japanese origin
printed in this section and in
Volume II the contents of
certain of these papers were
known to United States officials
in Washington, however, as
early as July l3 and infor-
nation on Japanese peace
maneuvers was received by Sec
retary of War Henry L. Slim
son at Babelsburg on July Is. .
1T also has been determined
that series of messages of Jap
anese origin on this subject was
received by the United States
delegation during the course of
the Berlin conference and that
these messages were circulated
at Babelsberg to some members
Of the Presidents party.
Furthermore, in a confer
ence on January "a, 1856, be-

his staff and Department Of
State historians, Truman sup

War ii Boom

war III bOOm
One hundred reports from all
over the world will be pre-
sented on the latest research
and techniques in this field,
which has doomed since World
War II.
No longer thought OF as
quacks, these physical medicine
specialists are sought by every
large hospital and medical
school in the country. 1t is,
said DR.. Krusen, "the result OF
a mass international socio-
medical movement to see that
every handicapped person is
restored"
Physical medicine is the
treatment Of disease or handi-
caps by physical agents. 1t uses
heat and light and mechanical
gadgets. 1t has grown into
nuclear energy, ultrasonics
infra and ultra-ray light as
we'll as hydrotherapy.
And yet, there are only
about $50 such specialists in
II the United States. But. before
World War II there were less
than 100.
! In 1886, the first three-yeal
residency for physical medicine
specialists was started. In l94l
Bernard Baruch. financier anC
adviser to Presidents. gave the
specially a 81 million boost,
DR.. Krusen had been made
director of the Baruch Com.
mission on Physical Medicine
and Rehabilitation which laic
the groundwork for the huge
Veterans Administration pro
gram in this field. Mr.. Barucl
had an intense interest herr
because his father was the frs
professor of hydrotherapy a
Columbia University and alS'
a surgeon for Lees Army o
Northern Virginia.
DR.. Krusen has often bee
called the father of physica
medicine" but he doesn't lik
it. pointing to others like MI
Baruch's father who earle
worked with forms Of waite
therapy.
The Baruch gift was mao
with the proviso that, 1--WE wal

The 100 block of N street
Is full of surprises. Once one
of the most fashionable
streets in town, it went
through a period Of threat
ened Standardization. Yes,
it's quaint. In spite of a
trafic heavy avenue at either
end it has the quiet of a
village.
Church bells ring out from,
all sides-the National Pres
byterian Church on the cor
ner where President and Mrs.
Eisenhower worship when
they are in town, st. Thomas
just across Massachusetts,
avenue, st. Johns but a step
away, while st. Matthews
rears its turquoise dome
above the varied roof-line.
Here and there in the
block, two mansions have
been thrown together to
make one, but the facades re-
sulting are in character and
reminiscent of the era, just
after the Civil War, when
most of the houses were
built.
A number of the fine old
homes are permanently oc-
cupied and owned by national
associations and publishing
firms a couple of small inns,
a hotel and one dress de-
signer's establishment. All
are very evidently united in
their appreciation of the
unique features the area af-
fords them. They are united
also in their determination
to keep it that way.
The Mayor Of N Street
One of the leaders in this
civic endeavor, nicknamed by
her colleagues, "the Mayor
of N Street." is Mrs. Hamil-
ton Farnham Morrison who
lives in a stunning restored
town house. which is flanked
on her right by other houses

In addition Mrs. Morrison
owns a tiny hotel called the
Gralyn. which, she says, is
better known in London than
it is in Washington. Mrs.
Morrison explains that soon
after she initiated the ven-
ture, just before World War
II, a friend brought a visit
ing BritiSher to call. The
Britisher fell in love with the
place on sight, and began at
once to register visiting dele
cations. That was the be-
ginning.
Like a Club
Mrs. Morrison recalls one
night when 26 different
countries and all six conti-
nents were represented in
her 46-room establishment.
1t is undoubtedly the only
hotel in Washington, she
thinks, and maybe in the
world, which has a perma-
nently locked front entrance.
1t is like a private club in
other ways, too.
A continental breakfast is
sent to the rooms or served
in a small breakfast room to
suit the guest. And there is
tea in the parlor at 5 o'clock.
Mrs. Morrison established
the Gralyn as a means Of
financing her law schooling.

lived for generations, soon

To All Law Enforcement
Officials

Armed with no more deadly a
weapon than a fountain pen, a
veritable plague of bad check pass
ers stands poised at this time OF
year to move in and intensity
their alarmingly simple robbery
of merchants throughout the coun-
try.
Already bilking businessmen of
a reported $500 million a year, or
a staggering $1,000 a minute, check
artists seeking easy money will
invade department stores, super
markets, drug stores, restaurants
and other establishments during
the year-end holiday seasons.
Taking advantage of new and
temporary clerks and the atmos-
phere of holiday gaiety, these cal
lous scavengers heartlessly ply an
evil trade which can be curtailed
only if the public and businessmen
will alert themselves and join
forces with members of the law
enforcement profession.
Indicative of how widespread the
bad check scourge has become is
the fact that during fiscal year
1860, the FBI Laboratory received
for examination 1856 fraudulent
checks having total face value
of $5,415,708. These represent but
a fraction of the spurious checks
passed, of course, since many mer-
chants accept their loss without
reporting it to appropriate law en-
forcement authorities and many
others will accept restitution ra-
ther than insist upon prosecution
of the wrongdoers. They forget
that the greatest deterrent to crime
is to insure that it does not pay.
