Reviewed Plans

Hull's press conference was designed to acquaint newsmen with background material in preparation for the security talks which begin Hull reviewed the work

Referring to the spirit of 1776 when men left their homes for eight years to fight for American freedom, Hull said Americans today need to revert to that spirit which he contended is somewhat dormant now. i Hull emphasized three great problems that faced the United States in trying to solve the international security problem: ONE: The realization that the ' fate, welfare and true interests of . all free nations—large and small— are tied together. TWO: The importance of keeping public opinion informed and alert in support of any practical movement or organization to keep the peace. THREE: The importance of keeping the whole peace problem out of domestic politics, of statement, Hull's

fact.” Focus Attention on Talks Dewey's statement had focused attention oh the international security talks which start Monday, and had been interpreted as dimming hopes that foreign policy could be kept out of the eurrent political campaign. The administration’s foreign policy leader in the senate, Chair-

a|man Tom Connally (D. Tex.) which

must affirm any treaty for U. 8 participation in a new world organi, zation, said that “we aim to have a

League of Nations, or whatever you want to call it, that's a going concern before the end of the war.” Dewey's statement, his first im-

since his nomination as the.G. O. P. presidential candidate, indicated that the Republican party would watch the coming talks closely and challenge any development which it felt contrary to world welfare. It also dimmed hopes of » keeping foreign policy out of “the ‘current election campaign.

“Cynical Intention”

Detlaring that it would be oimmoral” to leave solution of internationd] problems in the hands of 8 permanent alliance of the big four, Dewey said that some of the advance proposals showed a “cynical intention” of those nations to dominate the world through force and “individual agreements as to spheres of influence.” Dewey's stinging attack struck particularly at such talk of individual treaties among the big four. “The fact that we four have developed overwhelming power as against our enemies,” he said, “does not give us the right to organize the world so that we four always will be free to do what we please while the rest of the world is made subject to our coercion. “That would be the rankest form

During the past 48 hours I have been able to see virtually all of the British-Canadian sector from the thickly-grown Bocage country, through the steep vajley of the Orne to the gentle flatlands around Troarn, where the Germans have a clear field of fire against any attack. The British and Canadian attacks have been made under very difficult conditions indeed. One reason the Germans were able to pry the jaws apart long enough to let their armor through is that Von Kluge assigned this task to grenadiers and paratroops drawn \from the fanatical Hitler youth and “name” divisions like the Hermann Orr.

In a recent letter home, Pvt. _ White wrote about what a wonderful job he thought his family was doing and said that he certainly was proud of them. The last letter received from the 20-year-old infantryman was dated .July 25. He said he and 2 buddy were living in a foxhole, when they were tucky enough to get one. He said the fox holes had straw on the bottom and that he and his buddy had four blankets between them. They lived on K-rations, with only an occasional hot meal. One of the boys had to stand guard while the other slept, he wrote. The young soldier entered the service mach 24, 1943, and went overseas in April. He went into France on D-day.
