Exclusively at WESTERN THRIFT The two senator - told tha president, it was understood, that an interim organization is need ed to handle the problems of lib erated nations pending formula tion of the security mechanism proposed at "Dumbarton Oaks. It has been three months since the plan was made public and Chair man Tom Connally, !., Tex., of the senate foreign relations com mittee, told the United Press it was .unlikely the senate would receive it for ratification before May. ... Both Ball, who supported President Roosevelt In the last election, and Hatch denounced the present trend of events in Europe' which, they said, was crystalizedj into the old pattern of power politics. "It would be futile," Ball told the United Press in an interview, "to impose the Dumbarton Oaks organization on top of the pat tern now prevailing in the world. Specific instances, such as Greece, are not so disturbing in themselves as- the fact that such incidents arise out ot unilateral action." . . .' The recent political events, in Greece, .Italy, Poland and the northwestern European countries have revived unofficial demands that the major' allies foyn some sort of group, comparable to the combined chiefs of staff, to act on political matters. Under the present setup, settlement of the really tough political problems has to await a meeting of Presi dent Roosevelt, Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Premier Josef Stalin.
