Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY By MALCOLM EPLEY NEW YORK, N. Y. (.Travel Correspondence) Without a struggle, Portland today won the 1947 national grand Jodge convention of the Elks. The action was taken at the 1946 session here, which we are attend- F,J"JU' ing. Frank J. Lonergan of " I Portland, past grand exalted ' .

From the way delegates from all over the country are talking here, Portland will at tract a huge visitation for the Flks convention next sum- EPLEY raer. A lot of the folks have never seen the west and are itching for travel. Elks obviously are going to make a major contribution to the 1947 tourist crop in Oregon. There are about 3000 registered for the 1946 convention. With their wives and other visit ors, there must be about 5000 here. THE Elks convention opened with a huge somi-public ceremony in the grand ball room of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel. This mag nificent room scats maybe 3000 and fortunately ii air-conditioned and has grand accoustics. Among the speakers was William O'Dwyer, New York's mayor, who told the Elks that New York is not populated with 7,000.000 smart alecks. (We don't know why he felt it neces aary to make such assurances.) The newspaper photographers got pictures of O'Dwyer receiv ing a lei from the Hawaii Elks delegation. Try as he may a he-man like O'Dwyer can't help but look sheepish with that thing on his neck. Big, warm Jim Farley, one-time postmaster general, onetime Roosevelt campaign manager, and onetime third-term opponent, was an audi ence favorite on the program. Farley made it an occasion to declare his opposition to "isms" that he said may threaten the American way of life. As a matter of fact, that seems to be a ma: ior theme for speechmakers around here. J . AFTER the meeting, we walked back the six blocks from the Waldorf-Astoria to the Commodore, where we are staying. It was hot. Our party decided on ice cream sodas. The opportunities for something stronger were available everywhere. We had to comb Lexington avenue pretty carefully to find a drugstore with an operating soda fountain. However, don't get the idea that nobody drinks anything but hard likker around here (although there are a tremendous number of bars and cocktail lounges.) There are little itands here and there, especially in the Broad way district, that do a huge business in genume and synthetic fruit drink. We sat down the other night at the Cross roads sidewalk cafe, at 42nd and Broadway. Our young son was with us and ordered milk. The waiter expressed astonishment. "That's an act," said the head waiter. "He isn't that blase. A lot of people order milk here." News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, July 14 Molotov advised Mr. Byrnes privately just before our state secretary set out for Paris, that Russia was ready to talk peace with Austria. The Russian did not lay why, but the Byrnes people assumed the reds had seized about all they expected to get out of Austria and were prepared to with draw their troops sometime in the future. Thus Austria was added to the agenda of the Paris conference of the big four foreign ministers at the last moment, rather surprisingly and inex plicably. Lo and behold, as soon as the Big Four got near agreements in Paris, the Russians started picking up about 4000 persons in Austria, giv ing them 33 pounds of luggage and shipping them off to our zone of Germany to support, or to the French who are borrowing from us to support themselves, saying these people were Germans or something. This was nazi techni que. They wrested people from their homes and business in one nation and shipped them willy nilly in the remaking of the globe. This was the stuff we had been fighting the war against. Of such character are our dealings with the Russians. Hungarian Purge OR do you want another example? The Hun garian peace treaty was already on the agenda for Paris for settlement. This was one nation which had held the greatest semblance of a democratic election and had chosen over whelmingly a people's peasant party govern ment opposed to the tiny communist minority. But we have been officially advised since the Paris Big Four meeting that the communists have demanded, and taken steps by their oc cupying troops, to suppress the Catholic youth movement. Unofficially, underground reports which are entirely trustworthy in tone if not in detailed fact, are revealing that several hun dred priests and clergymen have been put into prison and that a cardinal has been the leader of a movement to keep Hungary free by consent of both Protestants and Catholics. The Russians well know they must suppress the Catholic church and its plea for individual freedom of conscience if they are to roll Hun gary permanently under the foot of the small communist group there, and are acting accord ingly. Or do you want another clearly provable, obvious example? The Russian press and offi cialdom has been daily foolishly charging that our atom bomb test was a warlike move against them. No reasonable person could support such a claim. The tests had been scheduled for six months. Just between you and me, they were inspired by the navy department to prove their ships should be maintained in the face of threats to cut their appropriations and fold them into the war department, but they may not even have proved this. The test was badly bungled from the standpoint of naval publicity which was its chief aim. a a Poor Coverage IN an atom bomb test, nearly everyone knows the effect on human life may not even ap . pear for 14 days. Yet newsmen were put into airplanes over the target area at the time of explosion and naturally recorded the truth, namely that they saw little or no damage. Later some ships sank, but not the Nevada in the center of the target and one good reporter wrote the bomb had been exploded too high in the air for maximum effect (several seconds too soon were his exact words), while another lead ing journalist said to make the matter com' pletely un-understandable that it was ex ploded too low (my info suggests it was 300 400 yards sideways off the Nevada but is not accurate on the height). Incidentally, Mr. Truman was not accurately quoted when some news authorities reported him as saying we had only two atom bombs sometime ago. My understanding is we have a good many and may be making a stock pile of them which Russia can consider a warlike act if she chooses but every American knows is a measure of defense, particularly a defense against another Pearl Harbor. We have no world ambitions, except for justice and freedom of the individual. Anyone knows that when you compromise on this prin ciple, you compromise with injustice and en slavement of the individual, to a totalitarian stateism and its purposes of world revolution against every existing thing, which has not been officially limited or defined by Russia in any respect. If you deal honorably with a person who believes honor is a weakness, you weaken yourself, and you strengthen him. In this case you give a character of world honor and mili tary support for steps which are against our war purposes of individual freedom and uni versal justice, for the common man.

I I STATIC r '" 1 1 The World Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE AP Foraign Affairs Analyst -J Secretary of State Byrnes is home from the Big Four for eign ministers' adjourned meet ing which laid the groundwork for the world peace conference of 21 nations opening in Paris July 22 and, to quote his re strained summary, "made some progress on the road back to peace." Mr. Byrnes is scheduled to give us a report of the foreign mining ts' parley by radio to night but one would expect that his account would be calculated to make us grateful for part of a loaf, rather than to set bells tinging over a tremendous suc cess by the Big Four negotiat ors. It's indeed a matter of much satisfaction that the con ference didn't break up in fail ure, split as it was by the great divergence of views between Moscow and other allies. There could have been a knockdown fight easily enough. That there wasn't is explained in part by Mr. Byrnes' remark in Paris that the U. S. accepted some compromises on European treaty proposals to avoid a "clash that nobody wants." One hastens to add that this isn't meant to detract from conces sions made by the other pow ers. .. The foreign ministers reached a large measure of agreement on the proposed treaties for Italy, Bulgaria, Hungary and Finland. As this column pre viously has remarked, it strikes me as unlikely that any treaty could alter the status of the four smaller countries, since they already are under Russian domination. The position of Italy, however, is still on the knees of the gods. International Experiment One of the outstanding fea tures of the vital Italian treaty is the agreement to internation alize the strategic Adriatic port of Trieste. Byrnes said this could serve as an experiment in international cooperation. "The nations of the world " he declared, "have entered into what is a great experiment that should determine whether it is possible for the United Nations, in a situation of this kind, to reach a solution." We now come, however, to a grim failure on the most impor tant subject of the entire world peace settlement. That is the administration of the Germany which started two world wars within a generation. Here the differences between Russia and the western allies are so great that if accord is possible it still is far below the horizon. The tendency certainly is towards a parting of the ways and a divi sion of the reich. Need Each Other The Potsdam agreement, which Marshal Stalin helped frame, stated that while Ger many was being occupied it should be treated as an eco nomic unit. The reason was that eastern Germany (occupied by nussiaj long nas Deen the big producer of the country's food, while the west (occupied by the other allies) has been the ercat industrial area. Before the reich's downfall these areas ex changed products and so com plemented each other. Under the occupation, how ever. Russia has sealed off her RADIO PROGRAMS MONDAY EVE KFLW 14.50 kc.

In three days we got a touch of a little bit of every thing, including beans. It was hot and clear on Friday, hot and dusty on Saturday and cold and much dustier on Sunday. With out a doubt that trip down through Spanish lake and on east was the dirtiest trip ever taken by man. We left Hart mountain in the back of a pick up and drove thirty miles try ing to find the antelope herd. We got back with a grand total of five antelope, at ranges of everything from 1000 yards to 100 feet. Also one big black tail buck, spotted by Chuck Cecil, who turned out to have the best eye for game of anyone on the trip. Stopped, as every one always does, along the road through Plush and took a look zone. As a result both America and England have to spend vast sums to provide food for their areas. To alleviate this absurd situation Byrnes has offered to merge the American zone with any other economically. Russia isn't willing to enter such a merger under present condi tions, but Britain and France may join. The official communist news paper, Pravda, of Moscow, yes terday said that the Soviet un ion favored economic unifica tion of Germany but that it could be achieved only by a central government, with gen uine "democratization" of Ger many as a forerunner. Well, when Moscow talks of demo cratization" it means only one thing, communization. I there fore is easy to see that as mat ters stand the idea of getting economic unity in Germany is quite as Utopian as would be that of securing political unity. , If anyone knows how to make a coyote howl will they please get in touch wilh Lloyd Ogle and let him in on the secret.
