A LOT of interesting material comes through
the mail to this desk, but the following
tetter is a real "stand-out."
It is from Madame Valen
flne Price, 196 Grand Rue,
Charleroi, Belgium. We are
pleased, of course, at the flat- II
fi-ring reference to The Her- Ef X
aid and News. But the real V1 SSWt
significance is this woman s 7-
feelings of gratitude toward f v,''N
certain residents or Kiamain
Falls and Medford, and to
ward tliese communities be
cause of kindnesses performed
by the local and Medford peo-fcie.
a Here is a snot in me arm tlh
for those who have become discouraged about
American relationships with people of other
(countries. It makes us believe that the individ
uals the little people can get along to-
?:ethcr a lot better than the diplomats and poll
icians who presume to speak for them.
For a breath of fresh air, read it:
pear Sir,
i I have in hand your newspaper sent to me
by one of your readers, Lloyd Newton, living at
15 Conger avenue, Klamath Falls. I have en
joyed each sentence of your newspaper and I
can assure you that all of my friends who read
English have been happy to read it also.
t It is not at all like ours here in Charleroi,
and I like much better to read the Herald and
"News than Gazette de Charleroi. Please, dear
air, will you be kind enough to tell the people
of Oregon, especially from Klamath Falls and
' -Medford, of all the gratitude of Charleroi Bel
gian's people, for what they have done to save
lis, to liberate us from the yoke of the bar
berous Germans and, after the liberation of my
country, to help us with food and clothes as
Mrs. Jessie Mason, 326 Portland avenue, Med
ford and her son Lloyd Newton are doing
again now.
j We have considered Lloyd Newton as our
son, when he was near Charleroi at Floreffe
amp. So with him, I know how the hearts of
Oregon people are. I could not find great words
fcnough to express my gratitude to such a
brave, good, valorous and generous people of
.Oregon. Please, dear sir, tell them if I cannot
find the words, it is from the bottom of my
heart and tears in my eyes that I thank them
nd tell the mothers of the boys who are in the
German occupation forces if their son would
like to come and spend a vacation in Belgium,
Jhey can always come to my house. They will
Shave a big welcome and I will love them and
Mo for them what a kind mom can do for her
iron, in thanks for what two of them, Lloyd
Newton and his mother are doing for my old
Another and me.
f Good bye, dear sir, and thank you to have
Jiad the patience to read my letter.
r I hope to receive more Herald and News
(never mind if they are old) as I like to read
your Journal. The specimens I have will never
be burned or destroyed as I keep them for my
Jittle "war museum."
Your Belgian reader,

flews Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON .
WASHINGTON, June 24 Come chase
around with me today the inner mean
ings behind the news from the Paris meeting of
Jthe big four nations. I will warn you in ad
vance that you will come out to the conclusion
f stabilized peace is practically impossible.
When State Secretary Byrnes left here, he
called together the news correspondents and
told them off the record about what they al
ready knew on the record. He had nothing
else. His subterfuge was enacted merely to
keep him from being attributed with the situa
tion all can see, to wit:
Mr. Byrnes wishes to agree in Paris upon
a peace, but will take any proposition of dis
agreement (which probably means the whole
collapse of the peace) later to the assembly of
the United Nations organization meeting in
September.
The British want to make separate treaties
of peace in case the Russians block their efforts
as expected at Paris. This was originally a
Byrnes idea before the last Paris meeting. Now
he considers it foolish. His position now holds
- that if you (the United States) offer Italy a
treaty of peace, and the Russians offer another,
and perhaps the British a third, Italy will not
know which to accept. Military advice to Mr.
Byrnes suggests political chaos in Europe this
winter unless a peace is effected, yet he wishes
to go to the UNO assembly.
No Power To Act
THE assembly has no power to act. It is only
a large gathering of all the nations which
will discuss Uie matter. The assembly can only
send the questions back to the UNO security
council with or without recommendations.
To do it the liyrnes way would be simply to
muster world opinion, through the United Na
tions' assembly, behind him while delaying
peace action. To do it the British way would
get action, would proclaim peace for Europe,
but whether you would get any real peace
would depend upon the Russians. The British
would just about freeze the status quo.
But as the UNO can act only through the
security council, Russia can veto action. Possi
bly Byrnes could succeed in getting the peace
issue before the council under the rules, but
Russia can stop him in the end, if it wishes, and
he will then have to make separate treaties like
the British or keep the issue open further. (This
is the reasoning behind current agitation to
abolish the veto power in UNO).
Details only confirm these conclusions and
strengthen them. At this writing no agree
ment on Trieste was thought possible, which
meant a treaty with Italy was impossible. The
Russians say they want the Balkans (which they
have) in order to supply advance lines in Aus
tria. They also keep Poland "in order to supply
Germany" (their zone). Thus the question na
turally arises whether they really wish peace or
wish to continue the status quo as long as pos
sible. Potsdam Pact Disregarded
WHILE the Potsdam agreement (Truman,
Bevin and StaUn) called for treating
Germany as an economic whole, it has never
been so treated. The U. s., itussian ana dhuju
zones function as entities, and there is no ex
change of production to or from the Russian
zone, which is surrounded by the iron curtain.
The British have delivered some coal to the
French, but not enough, and they have not
helped the Americans feed the German popu
lation in the American zone.
Mr. Byrnes wants a federated Germany and
a central government, but he cannot get it
without giving it away to Russia, and Russia
will not come into his kind of peace.
My personal conclusions are these:
1. The split between the British and Amer
icans is more apparent than real, may just be
a move by Brynes to draw Russia further out
into an assertion of her real aims, which are
world revolution, or to answer the Russian
charge of Anglo-American common beliefs.
2. I suspect Byrnes is being motivated too
greatly by domestic politics, especially in the
choice of Republican Senator Austin for UNO
(which he dictated or instigated), and in wor
rying about world support.
3. His job at Paris is chiefly to demonstrate
the impossibility of a peace agreement with
Russia and the six or more Russian satellite
states, through exposure of the facts of the
case; and then to act to get a peace directly or
alongside the British, and let the smaller na
tions go along if they wish; in short to assert
affirmative leadership for his ideals and those
of the nation.

BOYLE'S
NOTEBOOK
S Br HAL BOYLE
BERLIN, June 24 P) Soviet
Russia is beating out America
pnd Britain in the art of win
ning friends among the German
Cultural classes.
J The Russians are making a
powerful and apparently increas
ingly successful bid for the sup
port of the former reich's top
flight creative and intellectual
level by a double-barreled court
ship that appeals (1) to their van
ty and (2) to their belly.
J Sincere Berlin artists of radio,
Ihe theatre, or the writing world
complain that it is difficult for
them to work In the atmosphere
of inferiority with which the
western allies surround them.
J "The Russians never make us
feel that we are a beaten na
tion," said one German intellec
tual, "but the Americans and
British always manage in cer
tain moments to impress on us
that they are victors."
A well known German play
wright put it this way:
"You have to approach Amer
icans for putting through your
project for finding a chance to
publish or put on a play but
the Russians on the other hand,
approach you first themselves . .
even seek your collaboration."
They go even further to stim
ulate cooperation on the artistic
level by special materialistic in
ducements, such as extra month
ly rations of butter, cooking oil,
flour and winter fuel. They also
see that no productive and tal
ented German musician, writer,
painter, or singer is thrown out
of his home to make room for
a Russian officer's family. Un
til recently American occupa
tion officers made no distinc
tion even between nazi and non
nazi, when it came to the ques
tion of eviction.
The Russians have on occasion
courted rather than punished
culturally influential Germans
with a record of obeisance to
the swastika. Their program has
been to win such men over to
their own propaganda by spe
cial favors. One n
for example, who had been sig-
'o.iguiq Dy me nazis, I
was released from jail and his
expropriated estate returned to
him after he saw the new Soviet
light.
In a time when bread is more
scarce and important than
money, some German artists
point out that in the American
zone a waitress gets more in
terms of stomach wages than the
finest musician. And in Ger
many today only the stomach
wages count
Allies In Paradox
This is the paradox:
Russia is supposed to be most
concerned about the proletariat,
but here she gives plums to the
German intellectual and the
proletarian gets the leavings.
Contrarily, the Americans, who
in their own country reward
cultural artists well, in Germany
rank them no higher than com
mon laborers in the all-important
currency of food and living
quarters.
Ironically, among the best-off
people in Berlin are the former
nazi party members who are
condemned by American rules
to serve only in menial posts.
"So they get jobs in your
kitchens and mess halls," said
one German artist bitterly,
"where they, of course, manage

cultural leaders special material
istic advantages, the Russians
also have set up a special social
club for them. "The Sea Gull,"
where is available bottled spir
itual comfort that the artistic

Some Germans also say that
the Russian officers are genuine

"We feel that they want to

most Americans feel they Just

BRICKS
By EARL WHITLOCK
You have read of that eye
operation whereby the men of
medicine trans
plant a healthy
cornea to re
place a worth'
less one and so
restore sight to
the blind. I
think that I
shall never see ?
a pile of bricks t
again without
thinking of the
first account of
that operation which I read. It
was some years ago. And a
couple of little kids, blind from
birth had had their sight given
to them. The account was of
their reactions. The little girl,
ecstastic over flowers and birds
and mountains, seen for the first
time, declared she was never
again going to cry it was such
a wonderful world. The little
boy passed up the natural won
ders of the world for amaze
ment at the loveliness of bricks.
He had felt them, knew their
texture and their shape. But
their coloring was to him the
most gorgeous thing in all crea
tion.
And I wonder If there aren't
a great many very ordinary
things about us every day,
things just as common as bricks
in which we might find a vast
amount of beauty if we would
just take time to appreciate
them. "Rest in Memory Garden."
