frednwday. Aug. 18, 1944 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBTOE FIVE REDS WOULD PUT ON GERMAN FOES Would Leave Warlike Na tion Unable to Ever Again Threaten European Peace By Henry Shapiro United Press Staff Correspondent Moscow, Aug. 16 (U.R) The trend toward development of post-war projects, including the establishment of a peace organi zation, Increased among Soviet political writers today as the military victories on the East Prussian border and In central Poland augured a speedy term ination of the war against Ger many. Many suggestions have been offered, including formulation of some organization of nations but without a unanimity rule by which small nations could block action, although nothing con crete has been adopted because the Russians still live too close to the realities of total warfare to be unduly preoccupied with the details of the future peace structure. Cannot Forget Behind all the plans, however, is a general determination in the Soviet minds of crushing Ger many industrially and militarily to prevent her from ever again threatening European peace. The Soviet people cannot for get their millions of dead and crippled and the devastation of the better part of European Russia. There also Is some misgiving lest the United States and Brit ain, particularly the United States, insist on a soft peace or that Britain endeavors to resume the balance of power policy by Biding in the reconstruction of Germany. This uncertainty over Ger many's future undoubtedly is the reason the Russians as yet are not ready with concrete schemes concerning the post-war situation. As result, there have been few indications of the precise posi tion Soviet representatives will take at the forthcoming confer ence in the United States. Technicians Coming The Soviet delegation, headed by Audrey A. Gromyko, ambas sador to Washington, consists essentially of foreign office tech nicians, experts of international law and representatives of the Red army and navy. It does not include such policy makers aa Foreign Commissar Viacheslav Molotov, and Mar shal Klementy Voroshilov, who is chairman of the defense coun cil, or top-notch diplomatic ad visers like Maxim Litvinov, as sistant people's commissar for foreign affairs and former am bassador to Washington, and Control 6 V)' A Ivan Malsky, vice-commissar of foreign affairs. Washington, Aug. IS U.R The Soviet Union today was ex pected to oppose vigorously, at next week's talks on a world security organization, the prin ciple of full equality and re sponsibility of all nations and to contend instead that all powers great and small are equal only in the right to Justice. The Russian argument will be similar to this: The small and the great na tions must not have the same in fluence or the same right to a voice in the determination of In ternational policy. The big pow ers admittedly must carry the responsibility for keeping the peace and suppressing aggres sion and they must therefore be granted formal authority corre sponding to their actual respons ibility. That point of view will find wide support among the post war planners of other nations who long have recognized that the rule of the old League of Nations requiring a unanimous vote on resolutions was one of Its major defects. The history of the league is filled with cases of one or more small nations veto ing league action. Plan Received A comprehensive idea of the plan the Russians are thinking about became available here last night with arrival of the text of a recent article in the Leningrad "Zvezda." Some of the best Russian sources believe that the author of the article, signed as N. Ma linin, was really none other than Maxim Litvinov, vice-commissar of foreign affairs and Russia's leading exponent of collective security and expert on the League of Nations. The core of this Russian plan is a "union of great powers" bound together by special trea ties as well as an international security organization. The spe cial treaties among the Big Four amounting to a military alli ance would define "as precise ly as possible the role of each power in extinguishing this or that center of aggression." GANGSTER TOUHY SUES FOX FILM CORPORATION Chicago, Aug. 16 U.R) Rog er Touhy, former Chicago gang ster, has filed a $1,000,000 dam age suit in federal court against 20th Century Fox Film Corp. and Balaban and Katz, Chicago theater owners, for producing and distributing the film, "Roger Touhy, Gangster."

Pre - Harvest with "PARIVSOE" concentrated hormone treatment '"DARMONE" reduces pre-harvest drop of pears gives better Xfruit more profit by retarding dissolution of the abscis sion layer between the fruit stem and the spur. "ParmoneV penetrates the tissues and prevents certain chemical changes which cause breakdown of cell walls and the separation of fruit from the trees. VParmone'! neither accelerates nor arrests ripening. The treatment only gives extra protection against excessive drop ping during the normal harvesting period. Regardless of hormone application, however, fruit should be picked at the proper stage of maturity. The United Agriculture estimates that hormone treatment has saved fruit growers three to four million dollars a year. Get your share of this valuable protection.

I FACTORY 15) 200 Cubic Foot Load 10 SAYSJEOUCATOR Mass Unemployment Ex pected During Transition From Wartime to Peace Chicago, Aug. 18 (U.R) Dr. John Chllds of Columbia uni versity today predicted a great mass unemployment in the Unit ed States for nearly two years after the end of the war. During the transition from war to peace, we shall be con fronted with a demobilization of 30.000,000 from the armed services and the war production Industries, Chllds told the 28th annual American Federation of Teachers convention. "At present over 6.000,000 people are employed In three In dustries shipping, munitions and aircraft. The most optimis tic estimates do not assume that even one-sixth of this number can be continued in these three industries once the war Is over," he said. Must Move Worken The re-employment of these workers Involves a geographical as well as an occupational re distribution of war workers now living in temporary communities far removed from their home states, he said. Reconversion would require at minimum a pe riod of from 18 to 24 months. "The defeat of the Murray Kilgore bill, which was designed to prevent a grave situation of mass unemployment from devel oping, will make it difficult for America to play its part in the post-war reconstruction either at home or abroad," Childs said. Irvin R. Kuenzli, secretary treasurer of the federation, charted that labor and public schools have been subjected to "unwarranted nation-wide at tack" in a campaign "carefully organized, highly financed and effective in its impact on public opinion."
