Yalta Conference Details Still Too Hot To Become Public By CHARLES M. MC CANN United Press Foreign Analyst ' The Yalta conference, it has just been decided, is still so dip lomaticallv hr,t after 10 years 1 jfSwl details can not ?M yet oe maae ? XI lab w a j nit which Presi dent Franklin D. Roosevelt, Primp Minis- Jr-ff ter Winston ' 1 Churchill and Premier Josef Stalin held m February, 1945, at the Russian Elack Sea resort of Yalta in the Crimean Peninsula. Peoole are always referring casually to "Yalta." It is ve;y seldom that anybody bothers to remind us all what happened there. Changed World History Well, Yalta changed the course of world history. But a lot of things have happened 2 - since then to crowd it out of memory. Yalta provided for Russia's entrance into the Pacific war against Japan. It provided for the full liberation of all the countries conquered or domi nated by Nazi Germany. It also provided, among other things, for the "complete disarm ament, demilitarization and dis memberment" of Germany. The Roosevelt - Churchill -Stalin talks in the one-time sum mer residence of Czar Nicholas II in the Livadiya suburb of Yalta were held in the deepest secrecy. No newspaper corres pondents were even permitted to accompany Roosevelt and Churchill to the Crimea. It was not until two years later that the full text of the Yalta Treaty was made public. A Sell-Out It has been charged that Yalta was a diplomatic sell-out to So viet Russia. Russia got enormous conces sions for its promise to declare war, on Japan, including the Study Urged Cargo Ship Plan San Francisco (U.R) An AFL maritime union leader has urged other unions to give "care ful study" to Harry Lundeberg's plan to make American bulk car go ships more competitive with foreign ships. This plea came yesterday from Vincent Malone, president of the AFL Marine Firemen s Union, which has often support ed Lundeberg and his AFL Sailors Union of the, Pacific. Lundeberg's plan would cut operating costs by reducing the number of crewmen on bulk carriers, and by restricting over time pay. In addition, all crew men would belong to the SUP Thursday. March 17. 1953 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE TIVK Japanese Kurile Islands and Japan's half of Sakhalin Island Stalin promised to enter a pact of friendship and alliance with the Chinese Nationalists. Russia did enter the Pacific fighting five days before Japan accepted Allied surrender terms. Instead of helping to liberate the countries Germany had en slaved or dominated. Russia Communized most of them. In stead of entering an alliance with the Nationalists, Stalin be trayed them to the Chinese Reds. South Coast BREADED SHRIMP 12-Oz. Pkg. Four Fishermen or S.T.M.

' Meat Freight Rate Reduction Attacked San Francisco (U.R) West ern meat producers and packers have appealed to the Interstate Commerce Commission for sus pension of a westbound railroad rate reduction on fresh meat which does not include a similar reduction in westbound live stock rates. E. Floyd Forbes, president of the Western States Meat Pack ers Association, said the rate re duction of 50 cents per 100 pounds on fresh meat was an nounced in . Chicago Managers Committee of the Transcontinen tal Freight Bureau. "The reduction can be ruinous to western livestock producers and packers" by permitting "the West to be flooded with dressed meat slaughtered and packed east of the Rocky Mountains," Forbes said. ffutpouifc Only All the HOT WATER You Want Whenever Tom Want It No Down Payment on Approved Credit 20 A Month "Medford's Exclusivt Hotpoint Dealer" City Appliance, Inc. 127 North Central Phone 3-S743 Across From Penney's LAY-AWAY NOW FOR GRADUATION! iS0ley - AT ANDY'S ON j Ipfgq BM Mad BrgM Pul-rJ rCXi Prices IH Effect M JnleBeaul Way to Tell Time. w)" A Wonderful Way to Save Money! - tjktjlff They're here!
