MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1942 PAGE FIVE Tl STAGES FOR DRAFTING PEACE Former Chief Would Have Cooling-Off Period Before Attempting Final Work. Chicago, Dec. 17. Post-war peace making divided Into two stages, a preliminary peace to be followed by a period devoted to solving problems in a cool and deliberate manner, was the proposal made by Herbert Hoover in a radio address Wed nesday night. "The essence of my proposal Is that we have no arjnistice, no general peace conference, such as Versailles, but that we set the peace making in two stages," he explained. "The first to be an instant 'conditional peace that will turn the world toward politi cal, economic and spiritual re covery without the delays of last time. And then that the world should take time to cool off and work out one by one and separately the solutions for lasting peace." The former president sug gested that the separate prob lems should be examined or negotiated by separate commis sions representing the dominant nations as a prelude to action by their governments. Peace Points Offered He also stated, in an address prepared for delivery before the Executives' club and the Blue Network, that the United States must cooperate with its allies in finding a lasting peace and mak ing it secure. To accomplish the purposes he outlined. Hoover said, the United Nations should agree in advance to the terms of a con ditional peace and a subsequent program, and should impose and enforce the conditional peace. He added that the declaration of conditional peace should em brace: "1. Total disarmament of the enemy. "2. The designation of pro visional boundaries of nations. "3. Machinery for repatria tion of prisoners and civilians driven from their homes. "4. The removal of the eco nomic blockade the instant the enemy has handed over his arms. 1 "5. The immediate organiza tion to relieve famine, combat pestilence and aid in reconstruc tien. Otherwise there would be anarchy and no peace. "6. The provisional restora tion of all commercial treaties." Gold HiU Gold Hill.

By Merrlman Smith (United Press Correspondent) Washington OJ.R) Scene:, Pre sident Roosevelt's study, over looking the rolling White House lawn GHQ for the United Na tions now, where allied grand strategy is planned and per fected. There Mr. Roosevelt and Brit ish Prime Minister Winston Churchill decided months ago on the North African campaign. There overall plans for that campaign were perfected. And there, late in the day of nervously smoking cigarettes November 7, sat Mr. Roosevelt chain fashion, saying little while his No. 1 adviser, Harry Hopkins, paced the floor. They were waiting for news that the daring landings of American troops on the beaches of Algiers and Morocco had started. Releases Broadcasts " There was one cigarette after another until the room was smoky. Occasionally the tele phone rang or an aid entered. The room was silent otherwise. Suddenly the tension lifted. The President smiled. Hopkins stepped pacing. There was the word they had been waiting for the landings had started. Simultaneously transc r i p t i o n turntables in New York and London began sending the pre sident's voice, speaking in French to the French people, via shortwave radio. Simult aneously, American diplomats in half a dozen countries delivered formal notice of the United States action. Thus the top man of the American war effort sat in the nerve . center of the war and clocked the fulfillment, of com bat strategy. - The November afternoon was typical of United. Nations, gen eral headquarters at work. Since the tragic Sunday after noon of Pearl Harbor exactly a year ago, the White House has been built Into a real GHS. Military and naval conferences at the executive mansion are many. More often than not President Roosevelt participates personally. Center of Strategy The growth of the White House as a United Nations strategy center has been enorm ous since December 7, 1941, when on a peaceful Sunday af ternoon the president and Hop kins were chatting in the same study when the ominous news from Hawaii came in. The grand strategy of the United States, and for practical purposes, the United Nations, too, is planned and developed in numerous conferences there. The president leans . heavily In developing war plans on Ad miral William D. Leahy, who came back from Vichy where he was ambassador to become chief of staff to the commander-in-chief. Leahy organizes infor mation for the president and ad vises him on its military value. Actually, military decisions on detailed operations are made by the military and naval com manders. But the broad strate gy is determined by the presi dent and Churchill, after their military experts have pointed out the advantages and difficul ties of operations under con sideration. There are two big military clearing houses operating in co operation with the White House the United States Joint chiefs of staff and the combined chiefs of the United States and Great Britain, both sitting In Wash ington. These are the men who lay the real operational founda tion, the men who make the final decisions about uperatlons to carry out policies agreed upon by the two chief executives. Officials Fly To London Many decisions result from the frequent transatlantic jour (j SHOPPING 'TIL CHRISTMAS! - Greeting Cards - Seals Wrapping SHOP For GIFTS at the West Side Pharmacy The Resell Store.

For instance, many details of the African Invasion were work ed out in London last July when Gen. George C. Marshall, army chief of staff; Admiral Ernest J. King, commander of the U. S. fleet; Hopkins and Stephen T. Early, the president's press sec retary, flew to England. The Pacific War council, which meets weekly in the White House, is another organi sation figuring in United Na tions strtegy. While the coun cil is primarily interested In the Pacific theater, its discussions with the president are world wide In scope. The added duties of conduct ing a war have rested surpris ingly lightly on Mr. Roosevelt's broad shoulders since Pearl Har bor. He has passed through periods of obvious worry and tension and has sought to con trol public elation during peri ods of good news. But through it all he has changed little per sonally, his health is better this fall than it was in the autumn before Pearl Harbor and he still gets eight or nine hours sleep a night JACK WALKER, INFANT, DIES, AGED 10 MONTHS Jack Walker, infant son of Mrs. Betty Walker, Gold Hill, passed away unexpectedly Wed nesday afternoon in a local hos pital at the age of 10 months. Besides his mother he leaves his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Hancock, and Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Walker, aU of Gold Hill. Christian ' Science services will be read by Mrs. Allen B.
