IIX HERALD AND NEWS Friday. March 23. 1945 GETS BLAST By HOWARD FLIEGER WAarilNCi'JON, Marcn 23 P) Jutspokenly displeased with the illied war cranes commission, lome members 01 the house for ign affairs committee demanded Bdav that congress assume di rection of U. S. war guilt poll lies. . . ... The allied commission, has nade a most inept approach to ihe whole problem of accusing ind punishing war criminals. Rep. Flood (D-Pa.) told a report r after the committee spent two hours questioning Herbert A. Pell, former U. S. representative Dn the commission. Pell told the committee he did not know his present status, but the state department later de scribed him as "a private citi zen." The department last month had said Pell was dropped from the commission because congress failed to finance further civilian participation. His place was tak en by an army officer, Lt. Col. Joseph V. Hodgson. An appropriation now is pend ing to permit representation on the same basis as before Pell's re call, and Chairman Bloom (D N. Y.) of the foreign affairs com mittee commented that Pell ' should be returned to the post. Pell told the committee yester day the allied commission mem bers still are without informa tion from their governments whether they should treat as war crimes the nazi persecution of Jews and other minorities in Germany. A pending resolution by Rep. Celler (D-X.Y.) would authorize President Roosevelt to appoint an advisory war crimes commis sion to work with the U. S. dele-" gate to the allied group. It also would specify minority persecu tions as war criminality. Snel!

The occasion was the 22nd annual dinner of the White House Correspondents associa tion. Joe Fox, of the Wa"hinr.ton Star, started it when he took over as the new president of the association. He observed as he was inducted: "We decided it was time for a change, but we ma le it." And Radio Broadcaster Eob Trout g.aVoed the entertain ment gavel to concede that it wasn't h!.s father who presided over the first Roo?evelt fire side chat, it was his grand father. The occasion of that first one, said Trout, was in the Lin coln room of the White House. And Lincoln, ' he added, was "one of our temoorary presi dents." And there was a guy who accused General of the Army George C. Marshall of slipping him a "stinker." And President Roosevelt gig gle!. This happened last night at the 22nd annual dinner of the White House Correspondents as sociation. It was an unrationcd affair, without butter and meat, but Every brass hat In town made j Every brass hat In town had a good time. Danny Kaye, Jimmy Durante, (Bob Trout and Fanny Brlce made certain there were laughs. lAnd Mark Warnow's orchestra i played the music. I The president, taking a ni.iht off, was the target of many a I joke. The Earl o Athlono. gov ernor general of Canada (and the very picture of what a Brit ish gentleman should look like) chuckled through his mustache. The capital correspondents got t' e serious side of things settled early. Raymond P. Brandt, chief of the Washing ton bureau of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, was given the first annual Raymond Clapper Memorial award.
