Presidential Candidate Tell ~~ 0f Bomber Flight Around: World. oy

NEW YORK, April 8 wo. By Wendell L. Willkie's account: of <his bomber flight around the ‘world in 1042. was published ‘today in book “form under the title “One World,” with its theme a ‘statement that

after ‘the war America - must join|

“the creation of & world in which ‘there shall be an equality of oppor-

Cruising at tremendous speed, America’s PT-Boat fleet is sniping with excellent results at: Hirohito’s navy in South Pacific waters. These

{tunity for. every face and very)

nation.”

~The book, parts. of -which Willkie|

“had presented previously in speeches wand articles, urged. that “the time is, appreeching when we must once more determine whether America will assume its. proper position in “world affairs, and _we. must not let that determinajion be again de‘cided by party strategy.” - ‘“America/ must choose one of three courses after this war,” Will--kie - wrote, “narrow nationalism, “which inevitably means the ulti‘mate loss of our own liberty; in- | SI “ternational imperialism, which “means the sacrifice of some other “nation’s liberty; or the creatioon of ‘ga world. in. which there shall be ‘an equality of opportunity for svery . Tace and every nation.

‘World Must Be Free’

“To win this peace three things seem to me necessary — first, we : must plan now for peace on ‘a world basis; second, the world must “ be free, politically and economically,

* for nations and for men, that peace|.

"may exist in it; third, America must - play an active, constructive part in

5 freeing it and keeping its peace.”}

Willkie was sharply critical of the | administration’s North African policy as a “tragedy,” the official] ex~ planation ‘of which caused a feeling that “diplomacy once more, in devious ways, (was) trading away . the principles which we had pro- - claimed to the world.” © “Winston ‘Churchill and Franklin . Roosevelt are not the only leaders ‘ whose words and activities in the light of their proclamations are being watched,” he wrote. “The failure of Mr. Stalin. to announce to & worried world Russia's specific aspirations with reference to eastern Europe weigh the scales once more against the prociaimed pur‘poses of leaders.” :

Stalin ‘Able’

Willkie described his 31,000-mile bomber journey through Egypt, the Middle East, Russia and China ‘and "his talks ‘with such leaders as Pre‘mier Josef Stalin as a “hard man, perhaps even: a cruel man, but a ‘ yery able one.” {There can be “no. enduring peace, no ‘economic stability” unless the United States and Russia © “work is er,” ‘he said, and pointed out -that “the industrialization of Rus.gia will require a limitless amount of American products, and Russia has. unlimited natural - resources ‘that we need.” = Of .China, he said: “The tendency of many of our leaders to let the . war fall apart into a first-class war ! and a second-tlass war still fright‘ens me . . . either we win the ‘war “in full partnership with the Chinese in Asia, as with the British and the Russians and the occupied nations in Europe, or we shall not “really have won it.” : TY

On Oceans.

WASHINGTON, April 8 (U. P.).— Development of a vest-pocket size packet of chemicals that will precipitate the salts- from sea water and make: the water: fit for human consumption: was revealed : yesterday by Rep. Karl BE. Mundt (R. S. DJ.

Mundt Sd he understood the

the packet “which, contains silver oxide and other chemicals in a secret formula” was being. tested. by government agencies and may soon be placed in every life raft, on every ship and in every seaplane, He said the formula was developed by Dr. Alexander Goetz at the

California Institute of Technology,

under direction of the : eminent scientist, Dr. Robert A. Milliken.

Test Is Success “It already has been tested elght

.

milés off the Pacific coast,” Mundt

said. “I am told that the ‘packet— which is - packed watertight in a container the size of a pack of

cigaretes—will ‘make two.quarts of seawater fit to drink within two hours.

Mundt said that hie ‘understood

naval officials had been present at the test off the California coast, and that everyone present “including an admiral” drank the water

and found it pure and ‘palatable.

The complete outfit includes ‘the packet and & folding eanvas - con-

tainer for dipping ‘Water: from the sea. “The chemicals are dropped into the container and within two hours the salts—sodium and magnesium chloride—and precipitated out, I'm told,” Mundt said. He said that another silver product—a “silver pellet” about one inch long—had been developed by Dr. Goetz for purification of contaminated water and “has already been approved by the military.”
