‘Did You Ever See So Many Furniture-Minded Men?'
ROBERT S. ALLEN
EDITORIALS
If we desire to secure peace ... If must be
known that we are at all times ready for war.
George Washington to Congress, 1793
Helping Out Spies
Thanks to the Navy, life gets easier for
the foreign spy Time was when he really
had to dig for his facts But now he can
slip into a quiet saloon, order a drink
and do his daily chore just by giving a
close look at photographic murals on the
walls.
Silly as this may sound it s true Any-
body curious about how Washington looks
from 49.000 feet, for example, can drop
into the capital's Club 400. run by one
Charles Bomze, and squint at what is be-
lieved to be the highest altitude photo-
graph ever made
The shot has been blown up to huge
size, which will tend to reduce eyestrain
among foreign agents. As a further ac-
cidental convenience, the stratospheric
picture is flanked by a blow-up of the
graceful Supreme Court building, pro-
viding a nice change of pace.
We have the word of Air Force veterans
that any bombardier would rate this aerial
shot of Washington a complete joy. It
covers 121 square miles and clearly de-
fines every military target in the capital,
from the White House to the naval ord-
nance works.
Amazing as it may seem, at the time
this picture w as discovered in Club 400 by
an enterprising United Press reporter it
had not been released for publication Its
existence was known to the press weeks
ago but it was being kent "secret" for
reasons which have now evaporated
The Navy had planned to ofter the shot
as a "surprise exhibit" in the B-36 bomber
hearings before the House Armed Serv-
ices Committee The idea was to show
Sept 7. Five days later, on Monday, Sept.
12, the new federal assembly convenes
for the first time This will elect the
federal president, he will call upon the
designated federal chancellor to form a
federal Government, the new German ship
of state will be launched—upon storm
tossed waters.
The Soviet-occupied zone of Germany
has almost half the size of the new re-
public and almost two-fifths as much pop-
ulation. The Doubting Thomases are pre-
dicting that therefore the new venture
in government cannot last. You know, a
house divided against itself, etc.
Well, the Germany of the Kaisers and
then the pro-Hitler German Republic may
have taken in most members of the Ger-
man race (except the Austrians), but it
labored under the great disadvantage of-
being dominated by Prussia, which had
three-fifths of the area and also of the
population in the new republic, the most
populous of the 11 states, North Rhine-
Westphalia, has less than one-fourth of
the total population
The new German state accounted in
pre-war days for six times as much steel
as the present Soviet and Polish occupied
zones together, four times as much coal,
half again as much industrial production
in general But it produced about 20 per
cent less food.

WASHINGTON CALLING
Aid to Spain Languishes
CAPITAL COLUMN
By MARQUIS CHILDS
WASHINGTON. —So over-
whelming is Americas power in
the world and so uncertain is the
condition of Europe that It is hard
to realize here in this country the
consequences of the visit of an
American admiral to Generalissi-
mo Franco in Spain. It has set up
a whole series of currents that
are traveling like the waves of an
earthquake to the farthest bound-
aries of power
The visit of Admiral Richard L.
Conolly is described in the depart-
ment of defense as routine But
inasmuch as Admiral Conolly is
commander in chief of the United
States Navy Forces in the Medi-
terranean and the Eastern Atlan-
tic. his visit to Spain as command-
er of a four-ship squadron cannot
be written off in that fashion
Certainly. Franco is not writing
it off It is being propagandized
for all it’s worth, and probably
more, to try to convince the world
that the United States is coming
to the rescue of Spain s rapidly
worsening economy.
WANTS LOAN
For many months that has been
the goal of Franco and the little
clique around him that exercises
such tight control over all of
Spanish life—to get an American
loan. Since Spain has no ambas-
sador in Washington as a result
of the United Nations resolution
withdrawing all chiefs of mission
from Madrid, that is the mission
here of the mysterious Jose F.
Delequerica

sistance. U S defense officials are shying
away from it They reason that Europe must
organize for its own defense. If an American
is placed in command then it is felt the Euro-
peans would want to dump the whole problem
on the Lnited State* for full responsibility,
and do nothing themselves
tary Dan Kimball was playing golf on the 13th
hole- farthest away from the clubhouse —when
he was called to the phone by his office.
The message was that his own assistant Ced-
ric Worth had been revealed a* the author of
the unsigned letter that started the B-36 investi-
gation Kimball walked back on the course and
relayed the news to his partners id a three-

PROBLEMS IN A NUTSHELL
American-British financial negotiations in
Washington boil down to this: the British
want the United States to reduce tariff’s
simplify customs regulations, buy more British
Spanish foreign service with the
rank of ambassador, Delequerica
has been here for nearly a year
and a half directing an insistent
propaganda in behalf of Franco.
He has been the power behind the
hiring of influential Washington
lawyers including Max O’Rell
Truitt, son-in-law of Vice Presi-
dent Barkley,
The immediate goal is to get a
group of senators to visit Spain
in the course of a European tour
to see how ECA money is being
spent Delequerica has extended
an official invitation to the sen-
ators. members of the appropria-
tions committee, and Madrid is
now reported officially on their
schedule.
But within the committee there
has been considerable resistance
to the inclusion of Spain, which
does not receive American aid.
Sen. Harley Kilgore of West Vir-
ginia argued that the time of the
group could be much better spent
in countries where Marshall Plan
money is now going.
While this effort to woo the
United States is going on. curious-
ly enough at the same time a
violent anti-U. S propaganda is
carried on the Spanish radio. This
is aimed at South America where
the influence of Spanish fascism
is directed against the United
States in a variety of ways.
A month ago the Madrid radio
carried the text of an article from
Arriba, the official paper of the
Falange Party, attacking Presi-
dent Truman as the head of a plot
of freemasonry against the Ro-
man Catholic Church President
Truman, as the article pointed
out, holds the 33rd and highest
degree of Masonry. The broadcast
article declared
“The recognition of the State of
Israel, its inclusion in the United
Nations, the hypocritical and un-
fair behavior toward Spain, cir-
cumstantial enmity to the Argen-
tine. the systematic opposition to
Catholics holding senior posts in
the field of justice or in the gov-
ernment of the state, and the
major decisions in the national
and international field are ex-
clusively due to the dictate of free-
Masonry."
This same broadcast led off
with an attack on Mrs Franklin
D. Roosevelt as a resuX. of her
controversy with Cardinal Spell-
man She was referred to as "thia
old Freemason woman" who had
influenced “the presidential de-
cisions taken against the interest
of the United States as outlined
by its general staff."
Other attacks on Mrs. Roosevelt
were even more violent in tone.
In fact, they were so extreme that
they are reported to have created
an adverse reaction in Spain.
These countries would be re-
luctant to pool their strength in a
defense council based on such a
plan. Thus, even as a military
concept, aid to Spain has its draw-
backs.

Looking
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10-Be-
hind the imposing facade of the
forthcoming Monetary Conference
there is taking place another set
of Anglo - American exchanges,
which are a lot more specific and
even more acrimonious.
No publicity has attended these
other deliberations. But they are
of key importance to U. S. indus-
try and defense stockpiling.
They are over the question of
tin.
Specifically, a British plan to put
a big price squeeze on the U. S.
on this essential metal
Hotly involved in this backstage
controversy is the National Secur-
ity Resources Board Its function
is to direct the huge program ol
defense stockpiling. Privately,
NSRB officials have expressed
shock at the “unmoral attitude of
the British."
Reason is an implied threat that
unless British price and tonnage
demands are met. she will be
forced to sell her Malayan and
East Indies tin to Russia
An Anglo - American agreement
bars the sale of strategic raw ma-
terials to the Soviet. Tin is spe-
cifically banned.
NOT KIDDING—That Britain Is
not kidding is evidenced by the
fact that last week all exports of
tin to the U. S. were suspended.
Simultaneously, the Ministry of
Trade issued a statement that.this
measure was taken “to allow time
for the realignment of official pol-
icy to the new situation of a part-
ly free New York market." Real
meaning of this official verbiage
was this:
That Britain intends to withhold
her tin supplies until the U. S.
agrees to British terms.
* As outlined to American author-
ities. these terms include both fix-
ed higher prices and appreciably
la ger tonnage than we have pur-
chased in the past.
Until two weeks ago all tin
used in the U. S was bought
through the Reconstruction Fi-
nance Corporation. It -resold to
commercial users RFC paid the
British a pegged price of S1 03 a
pound.
When the RFC abandoned this
price support and turned over tin
buying to the free market the price
immediately sagged to 97 cents a
pound Traders claim that if Brit-
ain had not imposed the export
ban, the price would have dropped
to 65 cents. They assert this is a
realistic figure in view of the huge
tin supplies piled up in Malaya and
the East Indies. Pre-war prices
ranged around 54 cents a pound.
One charge U. S. officials are
throwing at the British is that their
high price is self-defeating.
It is being pointed out that even
before the export stoppage, Amer-
ican industries had extensively re-
sorted to cheaper low-grade tin
’Em Over
from Bolivia and numerous sub-
stitute materials. The argument I.
being made that
free market
is allowed, Britain will sell a great
deal more tin.
So far, that contention has got
nowhere.
The Ministry of Trade la pro-
ceeding with plans to set up a
“governmental buying and sell-
ing" agency to control the price
and flow of tin. Presumably, if
the U. S. doesn’t knuckle under,
Britain will turn to tin-hungry Rus-
aia.
NEED KNOWS NO MORALS—e
While outraged, U S officials
concede that Britain is in des-
perate economic straits.
One NSRB executive related this
incident as illustrative of the dif-
ficulty of the problem: During a
recent London visit, he was gypped
by a taxi driver. The official pro-
tested
“It isn't the money I rare
about," he told the cabbie, “it’s
the moral of the thing. .
"Guvnor," replied the cabbie.D
"there ain't no morals when yer
‘ard up."*
SITDOWN—Despite their truce,
the Arab States are still refusi %
.to recognize the new Republic of
Israel. No announcement has been
made about it, but due to this
obdurance the UN had to call off
its regional conference of the
World Health Organization. The
meeting was scheduled for Sep
tember 12 in Egypt. Israel was
invited as a CN member. But the
Arab States refused to sit with
the Israeli delegates.

■ "IS GENERAL VAUGHAN THERE!".
A government employe who had been
away on vacation and had no) been following
the news came back to town and inserted a
want ad in one of the Washington papers,
offering to sell his deepfreeze unit The paper
had barely hit the streets when the practical
jokers started calling By the end of the day his
frantic wife had 300- phone calls, and more
than 200 of them by actual count, opened with
statemenu like Let me talk to General
Vaughan please," or “Is General Vaughan
there?" Nobody wanted to buy. So the man
cancelled his ad after the first insertion and
decided to keep his deep freeze for a couple of

Montgomery of Alamein now chairman of the
Brussels Treaty countries’ Commander in

nothing to do with the colony

foreign to even ‘this cosmopolitan

hearts His correct bid is three
hearts Now the question is, what
should North do?
Some of the experts will tell you
that the correct bid is three no
trump, but the majority, I think,
will agree thst four clubs is the
better bid When South bids four
hearts. North should pass, even
though he is void of hearts. Smith
has heard every bid North has
made, and still insists upon the
hand being played in hearts North
does not have to be afraid of pass-
me out a possible slam
* If South held the ace and a
small spade, six hearts, four dia-
monds to the queen-jack and a
singleton club, instead of bidding
four hearts he would bid four dia-
monds. Then North could bid five
clubs, to show the ace South
would show the ace of spades by
bidding five spades, and rest as-
sured that he would not make this
bid unless he had at least four
diamonds to the queen-jack Now
North ran count 13 tricks and
could bid a grand slam.
