Ore., on August 30. 1006, under act of congreu, March 8, 1870 r Member. Awoclated Preu Member Audit Bureau Circulation Guest Editorials From The Dalles Chronicle TEXT o the secret agreement reached at Yalta, under which Russia was promised halt of Sakhalin island and all of the Kurile islands, finally was made public yesterday. Secretary of State James F. Byrnes said that it had been given a "top secret' classification, under an agreement by Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin. There is more than a suspicion that this "top secret" still would have remained secret, had it not been for the fait that it was "smoked "out" by the state department. No one in con gress apparently knew about it and when Russia put in a claim for the territory official skepticism was voiced in Washington that the American government ever had agreed to such s proposition. Moscow blandly replied that there was no doubt in Stalin's mind as to what he had been promised at Yalta and Byrnes finally had to admit, a bit reluctantly, that Roosevelt had made such a commitment. There is every rea son to believe that even President Truman did not know about it, and other possible secret agreements as well, let alone congress. The next question agitating congress is what else did Roosevelt promise? Did he promise the CIO a 30 per cent postwar wage increase? Some persons think so. Did he promise big loans and credits to England, France, Russia, China and other nations? If so, what promises did he receive in return? What is the United States to get from the extension of such largess? Congress certainly would like the answer to these questions. It is almost certain that Presi dent xruman sua is in ine aarx on some mat ters. Roosevelt took so few persons into his confidence that, when death called him sud denly, only the surviving members of the "Big Three" now may know the answers. That may be why Winston Churchill is holding con ferences with Truman at the White House. Admittedly it was necessary to concentrate tremendous authority in the hands of the presi dent, in order to achieve efficient prosecution of the war. We now are paying for this inde pendence on "one-man government," however. And we are attempting to keep promises that congress, which is supposed to decide such matters, never knew about and might not have made, if kept informed about the proceedings. Still The "Staff Of Life" From The Reno Gaiette -"4 4 HEN starvation threatens large popula- YY tions, wheat and flour are the best and cheapest means of saving lives. That was true In the crisis following the first World War. It is true in the current crisis arising from the same causes. : . In such emergencies, it isn't a matter of main taining a balanced diet. It's a matter of keep ing men, women and children alive, and for that bread is still the "staff of life." That is why President Truman has placed emphasis upon wheat, in outlining the contributions the United States intends to make to stricken Europe. The stocks of wheat in the United States on January 1, 1946, according to the department of agriculture, were lower by 32 per cent than on January 1, 1945, and lower by 23 per cent than the average of January 1, 1935-1944. And this despite an all-time record production in 1945 estimated at 1,123,000,000 bushels. The 1944 production of 1,042,000,000 bushels also broke the existing record. Only once before in 1915 had production gone over a billion bushels. ' - These production statistics have led some ob servers to assume, fallaciously, that it is going to be easy to fill Europe's wheat needs without experiencing any difficulty at home. The error is apparent when the low wheat stocks are studied. Three factors account primarily for the low stocks of wheat on hand despite the high pro duction 1. Large exports to meet foreign needs; 2. High industrial consumption, including use for alcohol; 3. Extensive use for feeding cattle and hogs. The general agricultural price situation and the corn situation have made it more profitable for many farmers to feed their grain than to sell it. The large consumption of grain per capita in the armed forces is also an element in depleting the stocks. The World Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE Associated Press World Traveler AMSTERDAM, Feb. 16 Holland has taken a terrible beating from the nuns, but finally has a solid footing on the craggy path to recovery and the indications are that with good crops this coming season she will do relatively well a long way from normal, mind you, but headed safely in the right direction. That is our summary of the position, having had chance to look things over. As I sat down to write this article I asked my distaff partner what her outstanding impression of Holland was, and got an unexpected reply. "It's that I have heard a lot of young folk singing in the streets," Mrs. Mack said, "and you see people smiling and even laughing everywhere. That's an astonishing thing to find in a country which has suffered so much as Holland." e Cheerful Courage WELL, I guess she's right. The Dutch have been hurt so badly that it doesn't take much easement to make them happy. It's a good sign, too, for cheerful courage is needed to pull them through. Morale is tops in Holland, and it is getting better with the approach of spring. It's near ing tulip time in Haarlem and we've seen the growers working diligently and lovingly over their bulbs. The farmers, too, are be ginning to turn the soil for the crops which mean so much to Holland this year. So far as material things go, the best indi cation is that there no longer is actual hunger in the country. That doesn't mean that there is anything like enough food, for there is a great scarcity of most things and rations are terribly tight. Still, the starvation of a year ago has been beaten.
