France, a nation that fainted

France, after World War I. They
were promised Independence,
and now want It. France does
not want to give it. France, lib

Editorial Correspondence
San Francisco, May 28 We are Indebted to Senator Cordon
for a comment on this Security Conference which hits the nail
on the head, to-wlt:
"My hope for the future rests upon the ability of people
to get the habit of peaceful solution of their (international)
troubles and that takes time. You can not create it by sign
ing documents and attaching red-ribbons and golden-seals.
I hope San Francisco may give us a skeleton structure upon
which to hang the hope of the habits of peace."
e e e e e
'The HABITS of peace."
That is the essence of the entire problem.
And to acquire that habit not only takes time, but it necessitates
the breaking of a habit that has been imbedded in the genus homo
for literally millions of years. It dates back in fact to BEFORE the
time, G.H. tried a vertical position and started to walk on two
lees instead of four, when he didn

But INDIVIDUALS finally decided it was both a silly, expensive
and destructive practice; so they established a system of laws
and courts, and even more important took away the right of the
Individual to go around armed and gave that right to the police.
The question here before the house is whether or not NATIONS
haven't reached the point where in their own self-interest they
can be as smartl
Well that is the Situation here, as we have frequently pointed
out. And as also stated before, we share Senator Cordon's "hope"
that San Francisco WILL give us a "skeleton structure" upon
which to hang the hopes of habits of peace. It can't be much
more than that a skeleton. And as the time to adjourn comes
nearer and nearer, this fact becomes clearer and clearer. In fact
as the final agreement looks now, it is as full of holes as a fish-net.
But If the holes in a fish-net are not TOO large, one can haul in

4fll:.V.J wnat I hear
ru euue among people,
particularly re
turning soldiers, there Is a feel
ing of distrust at the negotiations
and results. It seems to be a
broad sentiment taking expres

more than of Russia.
e e
THIS feeling Is current among
people who do not under
stand the Ins and outs of the mat
ter, and I think it is dangerous,
because England Is going our
way, no matter how much she
may chisel on the side, while
Russia is proceeding In an op
posite direction and steadfastly.
Here are the facts of the matter:
The greatest accomplishment
of State Secretary Stettinius In
San Francisco is the alignment
of so-called republics on this
hemisphere behind the American
policy of democracy and free
dom. For this accomplishment
alone, In my opinion, Mr. Slot
tinjus has earned the right to be
considered a great secretary of
state. I know most of the stories
of his deficiencies, and I have
reason to believe his removal is
planned by sincere devotees of
the Truman administration who
believe he does not carry enough
weight for the time. Who does?

MR STETTINIUS dragged In
Argentina to our sphere of

This is the achievement of Mr.
Stettinius which has gone under

MR Stettinius merely deceived
us as to the emDhasis of
this fact in his speech; he did not
exclude it. He said:
' In such an event the answer
Is simple. Another world war
has come, vote or no vote, and
the world organization has
failed," if anyone vetoes any
thing. This applies to all of the big
five. He also has fallen short In
maintaining our right to those

the peace we must have those

This is no peace at all. It is

whatever final conclusion is ar
ranged at San Francisco will not

provides for war.
e e
OUR line of thought Is being
compromised under the theory
that half a loaf is better than
a whole. I do not think so. If
we believe in something I think
we should defend it. The time
to defend it is now. Our people
want this, our soldiers fought for
it. . Why should we not get it?
Whatever the consequences.
our hopes are clear and we
should not relax our earnestness
for them. We cannot do more
