It isn t just the ruired bridges whose twisted skeletons clutter the rivers and interrupt naviga tion, the smokeless chimneys and the idle workshops, the heaps of rubble from which issue even yet at times, after all these months, the fetid odor of death. More sickening even than these odors that drift out from the rubble heaps is the decay of human morality and stamina in these countries that have been ground under the heel of war. Somewhere under this mess there must still be solid human virtues. It isn't possible even for six years of war to have de stroyed all that which is good and sound and dependable in human nature. That just can't be. But at this moment, with the guns only barely silent, we can't yet see under the surface, and to the surface of what passes for life in Europe there comes bub bling up now the WORST in human nature the opportunists, the racketeers, the get it quick while the getting is good boys, the shrewd ones with the sharp teeth and the sharper minds, the sharks that prey on all that is flesh. It must always have been so In the wake of war and defeat. It certainly is so now. Coming away from the continent, you wish you could shut the memory of it forever out of your mind. But, having seen it, you can't. BRITISH AID SEATTLE, Sept. 27 (P) Great Britain will assist the United States "to the maximum degree" in preventing Japan ever rising again to the status of a military power, Capt. Eric Bar ry Kenvyn Stevens, chief of na val information for the British admiralty, told inte rviewers here today. He is on a self-education tour" of the United States. ONE DAY'S PAY EMPEROR BOWS TO (Continued from Pago One) already is taking place." There was no confirmation.) Agreement The Japanese central liaison office, to which all inquiries were referred, told The Asso ciated Press today that allied headquarters and the Japanese government "reached an agree ment not to disclose" the topics discussed. The Japanese spokes man said that he personally knew what the conversation in cluded, but that he could not re peat it without MacArthur's per mission. While the general and the em peror sat by a glowing fire and talked, Domel agency reported that four elements of the sixth army's 33rd division had arrived in the Kobe area on western Honshu to swell occupation troops there to 4500. Because of the length of the talk, it was assumed they dis cussed generally mutual prob lems connected with American occupation of what remains of Hirohito's onco great empire. Marquis Kojchi Kido, keeper of the privy seal, told The As sociated Press there is no pros pect at present of abdication be cause Hirohito personally must carrv out the Potsdam terms. Hirohito and his Japanese in terpreter were closeted in the state reception room in the resi dence of the embassy which Mac Arthur and his family have taken over. The emperor's somewhat old, dark automobile drove up to the main entrance carrying the im perial emblem on the front. The back curtain was drawn. Hiro hito was sitting bolt upright in the seat. His grand chamber lain. Admiral Fujita, who previ ously mot MacArthur to arrange the meeting, was sitting facing the emperor. An attendant jumped out of the car, opened the door and bowed. The cham berlain backed out of the car, keeping his face to the emperor, and bowed as Hirohito got out. The emperor found Brig. Gen. Bonner Fellers, MacArthur's aide, and Maj. Saubion Bower, an interpreter, awaiting them. Hirohito, in formal diplomatic clothes, took off his silk hat, bowed, and shook hands with Fellers, probably an- unprece dented thing. - Still more unprecedented, however, the emperor again ex tended his hand as Fellers intro duced him to Bower. Fellers ushered the- emperor ahead of him to the state recep tion room where, as he entered the door, Hirohito bowed in Mac Arthur's direction. Hirohito found his host wear ing army khaki and an open throated shirt. The supreme allied commander wore no tie' and no medals. The call was informal. A spokesman acknowledged that the meeting was "fraught with significance but emphasized it was arranged at the request of the emperor's representative, presumably at a recent, visit of Fujita., Patterson Now War Secretary WASHINGTON, Sept. 27 (VP) Robert P. Patterson took office today as secretary -of war. The former undersecretary, appointed to succeed Henry L. Stimson, was sworn in by Judge Leonard Hand of the second cir cuit court of appeals. Patterson was a judge on that court before the war. Several cabinet members and army, navy and marine officers attended the brief ceremony in the secretary of war's office. Present also were Mrs. Patter son and eight-year-old Virginia, one of three daughters. Nipponese To Form Free Press NEW YORK, Sept. 27 OP) The executive heads of three leading Japanese newspapers said today in a message to Kent Cooper they were soonsorinn formation of a Free and Inde pendent News association to fur nish news of the world to the press of Japan.

ONE DAY'S PAY QUINTUPLETS I ealuaua. la a. . a. a ..tt Ufa GnEAT '"COLDS To relieve couth, eere msscle of chatt colds MAGARTHUH AT US EMBASSY aiffON World Peace Depends On Christianity, Archduke Says (Continued from Pago One) common cause tying them closer together than ever before. Such an international spirit is the ob ject of postwar reconstruction, Countries now think in longer terms, and the time tor isolation is recognized as over for all time. A practical view must be taken in the reconstruction pro gram to ejnakc it workable, the Austrian pointed out. Boundar ies cannot be eliminated at pres ent because of economic rea sons linguistic limitations and lack of common currency. What the Germans were unable to do with occupation and force, can not be accomplished in peace, where pressure is lacking. Difficult Problem This elimination of boundar ies is especially difficult be cause European countries have been indoctrinated in national ism for too many centuries. To day is too soon to try to elim inate boundaries of small coun tries, the speaker asserted. It can't be done now, and to try to do so would only confuse the issue and delay the ultimato success, he averred, of a United States of Europe, which is the basis for internationalism. All countries must Join in such a confederacy of their own free will. Small countries in fa vor of such a move now arc in strong majority. An interna tional confederacy is appealing a; a protective measure.. Danger Spots Small countries by themselves are known danger spots, the archduke brought out, begging for a stab from larger powers. They are soft spots where can cers start easily, easy targets for nationalistic-minded govern ments. The absorption or unity of small countries under a regional head would be the natural nu cleus of a United States of Eu rope. No one or few countries can dominate and insure world peace, the speaker stated. Inter national confederacy is the only answer, and the only road to full cooperation. No "master race" policy is feasible. Every country must have equality as each state in the governmental policy of the United States. Each group must have equal and adequate representation to form a workable international con federacy, in the international conception of the situation, as viewed by Archduke Felix. Only Weapon This system could be worked throughout Europe, and is the only weapon against national ism, the deadly germ. It is the only solution to the minority representation problem, Felix believes. ' While the solution is so easy it should be accomplished, with equal, rights for everyone, he continued to; point out. A con federacy cannot be attacked be cause of its unity in other words, "united we stand, divid ed we fall." "Perfect peace" is the ideal of reconstruction, and nations must act now to secure it and destroy nationalism with inter national organization as a basis for confederacy to be e s t a b lished later. The right Christian road is the only way otherwise nations and individuals had better find a cave to hide in from certain atomic destruction, Felix con cluded. , Question Period An informal question and an swer period followed with Groesbeck inquiring if central European countries are educat ed to desire an international confederacy. Felix replied that Hitler has educated them to the desire by ills atrocious behaviour, and the atomic bomb has confirmed their education.

The strike by about 15,000 AFL elevator operators and building service employes threatened to spread. Additional coal miners left their jobs in West Virginia and Pennsylvania bringing the total miners idlo in the two states to more than 33,000. The strike Idle in Pennsylvania alone mounted to around 73.000, in cluding 33,300 at four Westing house Eloctrlc company plants. Fifty-eight bituminous pits were closed. In Detroit, plagued for months by strikes and shutdowns and currently having some 00,000 idle, ClO-United Automobile Workers representatives and Chrysler corporation spokesmen made no comment as they re cessed their conference on the union's demand for a 30 per cent wage increase for tho company's 80,000 workers. One dispute in Detroit ended, 3100 Murray corporation work ers going back to -work after being idle for more than two weeks. The majority of the idle in the Detroit area were from automotive plants. CIO UAW officials renewed efforts to end tho 35-day strike at the Kclscy Hayes Wheel company, a walk out which forced the shutdown of the Ford Motor company plants, idling more than 30,000. There were 13 separate strikes in Chicago. None, however, in volved large groups of workers. About 7000 were oft their jobs slowing production of civilian goods. (Continued from Page One) ton.

Little children and- aged people of Europe will not be able to survive cold and starvation this winter, without outside aid, he said. The nation that comes to their aid now will have an ad vantage of a voluntary coopera tion from the smaller nations. Felix shook hands like an American with those who wait ed to meet him afterward. He has been in this country since 1939, and makes his headquar ters in Washington, D. C. He left immediately after the meet ing for Sheridan, Wyo., where he will speak to the Knife and Fork club of that city.
