One can't hem not ing that we're going after Jap ou refineries nara, as we aid in the case of the Germans. We're beginning to learn that.it was lack of gasoline, rather than lack of planes, that finally grounded the German atr .force. SENATOR VANDENBKRG (Republican), urging the sen ate to ratify the San Francisco charter, agrees today that it is probably true that what was really created at San Francisco is a military alliance among us, the British and the Russians, but adds that the world is at the mercy of these three great nations ANYWAY and that the charter Is a curb on their mili tary rivalries. The charter, he savs. cives at least the restraint of a peaceful contract, ior wnatever it may oe worth, with the "grim assurance that the aggressor who breaks this contract will stand in naked infamy before the embattled conscience of an outraged world." m m m WTHETHER we have peace or " war In the future admittedly depends on the wisdom, the In telligence and the tolerance with which the United States, Britain and Russia approach the task of running the world of the future. About all the charter does is to provide a way for them to work together If they are WILLING to work together. Pelican Bay Worker Dies r a Hotel Here John E.
