The announcement, made through Secretary of State Stettinius, will, we are sure, meet with general approval. It is not unlikely, we tninK, that it was made because of the general disapproval which irreeted the disclosure that America's representative at Yalta had insisted on three votes for his country, but this does not alter the fact that the new declaration of policy is a wise one True, the British commonwealth of nations has put in for three votes, from which it can be argued and has been argued that Great Britain will have triple voting strength. 1 his does not mean, however, that the three votes will be Great Bri tain's. To a less extent this may also be said in regard to the three votes tentatively allocated to the soviet republics. But for the United States, three would be solely in recognition of this nation's size and strength. All other member nations are to receive one each. ; ... Now, as the president has sensed and announced, this country is ready to take its place in the assembly with a rating equal to and no greater than these others. The world could ask no better evidence that the United States will not attempt to use its strength to dominate the world. If any move on our part may be counted on to replace suspicion with confidence, this renunciation of extra voting power is it. There will be some criticism, perhaps, of this renuncia tion. There will be somewho will maintain that the United States should relinquish nothing, that it should, on the con trary, seek immediate control of the world situation. With these thoughts we cannot agree. No one nation can be su preme. In Germany we have an example of a nation which tried to be. In the assembly the votes of those who believe in , us will weigh far more heavily than our own. There will be more cause to believe in us now. After all the success of the assembly of nations plan, if it is to succeed, will be based on mutual confidence. The issues before it will be moral issues. Their settlement must have its foundation on international morality. The structure of peace and world justice which we hope to build will slide swiftly and destructively from a foundation of mere power. This is the sort of foundation the United States is ntfw telling the world, that it does not want. On Saturday a Bmall girl, walking through Drake park, was knocked down and badly bruised by a cyclist. We may take it for granted that the boy on the wheel did not intend to run into the child, but it may also be stated that the park walks and paths are intended for pedestrians. Cycling should be confined to streets. Otherwise there may be more accidents, which could easily be more serious. .Report of the finding of Germany's hldderl treasure hoard is apparently well authenticated. In case the reader is inclined to be skeptical, however, it may be pointed out that the loot was taken in a salt mine and that he may season to taste.

He had two more newspapers and a copy of the At lantic Monthly under his arm. Pat, in slacks and sneakers, con trived somehow to look the epit ome of what every girl aspired to appear. Mr. Hudson passed us without a word. Pat stopped and gazed after her father for a moment. Her lovely eyes were troubled. Then she said: "Nick, I hate tho sight of this place. Let's take a walk along the bluffs." "Sure," I said and turned to Charley. Ho shook his head. "Whore's Europe, Nick?" asked Pat when, tho ocean stretched wide below us. "Out there," I pointed, "And Spain," she said, "just be yond that spar buoy." "Beyond the horizon; about an hour's hide," "I remember Spain and all of Europe. I saw It with the eyes of a Utile girl who thought the world was her oyster and who never knew a moment's trouble. Until she grew up. "Nick," she looked at me stead ily, "we haven't a penny to our names." "What?" I said and I looked at her. She smiled wanly and touch ed my cheek gently with her hand. "The Hudsons are poor. Father told me this afternoon. Poor dear, he feels it dreadfully." "What happened?" "Lilies of tho field and bad management," she said. "Are you sorry?" "About the money? No." She shook her head and I knew she meant It. "Nick, there's some thing much more Important than our losing our money." "What's that?" I asked. "This Is not qulto so easy to tell. Father " she stopped. "Fa ther is mixed up in something well dishonorable." . "Pat " I began but she stop ped me. "There's no sense in keeping it from you, Nick. You'll know even tually, and I want you to hear it first from me. As a matter of fact, I know very little ovcept what ho told me. On the way back from Mlnot, he talked nostalgical ly of better days. Then ho said: 'Pat, I must tell you this for the small shred of honor I can pre serve in confessing such a shabby thing. Your father is mixed up in a very dangerous and dirty game. But it won't be for long. I'm pull ing out." i My pulse; began to beat In my temples.' i , "Pat, did he say what this game was?" "No," she shook her head. "He Just said not to worry and he would take care of everything." "I think I had better talk with your father, Pat." "You can't do that, Nick," she said quietly. "You know father's stubbornness. Besides this is quite confidential. I don't think he can huvo done anything so terrible." "Of course not, but " "You don't think It's something to do with that business in the cellar this morning?" "Why, no, Pat." "You do, Nick." Sho faced mo resolutely. "And so do I. There are too many looso ends here. For example, why didn't father notify Cass Hapes about the at tack on you this morning? Why was father so Insistent that Brace Temple, whose' very name is thoughts of Phineas Hudson van Uhed. If there had been another door In that room, I could have sworn that someone, had stepped through it the moment I entered. It was as U the quiet air had stir red faintly. The constant presence of danger sharpens one's senses. I was certain that someone had been in the room. I stood for a moment In the doorway and looked around. Ev erything was just as I had left it. The mystery novel was still on the table by my bed. Yet it seem ed that the book had been moved a little so that I got a clearer view of the design on the jacket: the shadowed outline of a hang ing corpse, f turned to the bu reau. There in a corner of the mirror tucked in between the glass and the frame was a white slip of paper like a parking ticket on a windshield. I unfolded it and read the message pasted on the paper with the cut-out letters of newspaper headlines. It was quite lucid. GET OUT OR BE KILLED The paper was a brand of cheap white sulphite such as can be bought at any stationer's. The letters were cut from The Times. I slipped the message into my pocket. I had only one imposingly clear thought: murderers do not warn their victims. Then I had what I thought was an inspiration. It is a practice in jiujltsu' to resist your opponent at first, then suddenly to add his force to your own by going the way he pushes. I would take the advice. I would leave The Ledges and by combining the note the writer's strength with my own, I might learn something.
