The reason for it is his braggartly qualities, his oversearing sense of im port ance. We tolerate him because we like his wife, Madge, but even so our toleration is a chore. The other night I was over to the Spafford's and sat through an hour of Henry’s bragging.

An swering them, the men who must Implement the North Atlantic pact were kept under steady fire for 4W hours. Big, bull-voiced Senator Vanden berg set the pace, but each senator got a load of questions off his chest. They combed the pact's fine print for pitfalls and loopholes, and searched for hidden meanings be tween the lines. As a result, many tough problems were plowed up. The chief targets in this verbal shooting gallery were Secretary of State Acheson, Secretary of De feme Johnson and ECA Ambassu dor Harriman. They talked brll liantly, but not quite enough to please the senators. “ I can’t be offhand and free about information that involves Afternoon Dress other countries,” Acheson retorted im patiently, when pressed for de w B E A U T IF U L L Y sim ple o ftc r- tails. noon dress fo r the la rg e r Johnson also buttoned up during figure th a t's c u re fu lly planned to a barrage of questions on atomic fla tte r and slenderize.

He pointed out that the U. N. charter recognizes the right of nations to “ collective self-de fense’ ’ in case of attack. The charter, however, adds in A rticle 51: "Measures taken by members (of the U. N.) in the ex ercise of this right of self-defense shall be immediately reported to the security council.” Does this mean, Vandenberg asked, that the treaty nations must report their secret defense plans to the security council—where Rus sia has easy access? This was something none of them wanted to do, but Senator Pepper of Florida warned that the pact, itself, prom ised to abide by the U. N. charter Secretary Acheson explained, j however, that the only "measures J we are obliged to report to the security council are whatever meas- I ures may be taken jo in tly—after an ( armed attack occurs.

If we are not going to teach the processes of peace, we may as well quit now.” Another question, raised oy sev eral senators, was whether to fur nish Europe with American-made arms or help the treaty nations manufacture their own arms. If the United States tries to produce all the armament needed for the allied world, the production and logistic problem, it was argued, would be terrific. But, on the other hand, plants built in Europe would be easy prey to the Russians and might be turned against us.
