Britain Calls For
More Austerity To
Get Out of Red
LONDON, Dec. 21 UP)
Britain announced yesterday a
four-year plan to muster all her
men, money and materials to get
the nation out of the red by 1953,
The Mm is to make Britain self
supporting by the time the American-financed
European Recovery
Program comes to an end.
The plan calls for continued
austerity and self denial, and a
massive production effort.
Officials called it "a sign post
for the future."
The plan assumes that Britain
will continue to receive American
help under ERP until mid-1952.
It estimates Britain's dollar
needs under ERP next year at
$940,000,000 compared with $1,
263,000,000 in 1948-49.
Without American help, the
planners said, "recovery would be
gravely hampered and there
would be a real risk of the whole
economy being caught in a de
scending spiral."
The ambitious urogram calls
for doubling production of oil
from British-owned fields, raising
the output of coal 25 per cent, and
huilding domestic agriculture to
in oil llm. kink
Such efforts will be aimed at
building up a 100 million
($400,000,000) surplus of foreign
exchange by 1952-53. Last year
Britain had a 630 million ($2,
520,000,000) deficit.
Success of the plan, the govern
ment said, "will depend on full
cooperation with other countries
in Western Europe and the com
monwealth." It has been under study by the
organization for European eco
nomic cooperation in Paris for
two months as Britain's contribu
tion to an over-all plan for the 19
ERP nations.
The French have criticized the
belt-tightening in the British plan
because, they say, it closes United
Kingdom markets to a wide range
of luxury goods such as wines and
fine textiles, produced in western
Europe.
Mrs. Ybaro Says
She Slew Husband
For Beating Her
MARBURG, Germany, Dec. 21
UT Mrs. W 1 1 m a "Billie"
Ybarbo told a U. S. military gov
ernment court yesterday she shot
ner war nero nusoand because '
he was beating her up and had
threatened to kill her. j
The pretty 23-year-old mother
from Maiden, Mass., added that I
a family quarrel involving "sex- 1
ual incompatability" and her hus
band's attention to a German girl '
led up to the fatal fight.
r- "He had told me he was go- i
ing to kill me and had beaten
me up terribly before," the de
fendant declared. !
"I just couldn't go through !
that again," she said, "so I reach-1
ed into the wall locker and got I
the gun where I had put it after I
taking it away from him the I
other night, when he was going i
to kill us both."
The court all but ruled out a
possible death penalty for Mrs. ;
Ybarbo. It held the prosecution j
had failed to show any premed- i
ilation in the shooting of Set.
John Ybarbo of Goliad, Tex.
At the same time the court
ruled an American woman can
be tried for murder under German
law, which authorizes beheading
for murderers. There was no
possibility, however, that the
penalty would be applied in this
case.

United Nations Ban on Genocide Bold
Step in Behalf of Human Rights
' By JAMES THRASHER
Fifteen years ago, when Hitler's purge of the Jews was Just be
ginning, a Polish law professor brought a revolutionary proposition
before the League of Nations. It was a crime, he said, to persecute
or exterminate groups of human beings because of their race, re
ligion, language or nationality. He called this crime "genocide."
from the Greek word meaning race and the Latin word for kill.
And he said there should be an international law against it.
But the League's legal experts
told him there wasn't any such
crime. Not until 12 years later
was any official notice taken of
this man's solitary legal crusade.
Then the professor, whose name
Is Raphael Lemkln and who now
teaches at Yale, was given the
Job'of writing the genocide clause
in the indictment of the Nazi
war leaders at the 1945 Nurem
berg trials.
Now at last Professor Lemkin
has won his long fight against
mass murder ' and persecution.
The UN General Assembly has
voted to outlaw genocide. The vole
was 55 to 0, with three absences
but no abstentions. Even Russia
did not object to the idea that,
on specified grounds, it is Just
as wrong to kill a million people
as it is to kill one man.
Four Freedoms Recalled
The genocide ban must still be
ratified by the Individual UN
member states. But the big task
is undoubtedly finished. And it
marks a considerably more prac
tical and immediate step than the
UN's adoption of the Declara
tion of Human Rights, though
it is a much shorter step.
It Is also a step In the direc
tion of the almost forgotten dec
laration of the Four Freedoms.
That declaration was one of those
idealistic goals like the Atlantic
Charter which appealed to people
all over the world in the highly
charged emotional atmosphere of
war.
These ideals have been largely
forgotten, at least by the world's
statesmen, In these last three
years of political tension. But
now at least the UN is on re
cord with a majority vote In
favor of individual freedoms. And
the genocide convention, If rati
fied, will back further individual
protection with the force of in
ternational law.
Fear of War Remains
The UN Declaration of Human
Rights faces the same world

wide difficulties that confronted
the ideal of the Four Freedoms,
only in more detail. There is a
vastly different definition and
interpretation of freedom of ex
pression and freedom of religion,
for instance. In various nation
alities, societies, creeds, cultures
and governments. Freedom to one
group is not ireeaom to anotner.
And at present the difference
of opinion may be perfectly hon
est. I
But two of the Four Freedoms j
are much less affected by all j
these boundaries. They are free
dom from want and ffedom !
from fear. Hunger and, terror j
are universal emotions. And the j
biggest Job that any world or- j
ganization can have is to try to
help free humanity from the ,
threat of both.
The vote to outlaw genocide
is a bold effort to grant free
dom from one sort of fear the
fear of punishment for the
"crime" of non-conformity. It is
an old fear, old as civilization, old
as the fear of war. But when
will the United Nations reach ,
agreement on how to free clvili-!
zation from the fear of war, and
take steps to enforce that agree
ment? NO WAITING!
