fuch valuable time has been lost. The appointments made by the President in October. But since January, | congress met, there had been doubt that David E. | would be confirmed as chairman. Doubt that, e rejected, other members would agree to serve. And lidering the baseless character assassination attack on Mr. Lilienthal—that any other self-respecting and competent citizen willingly would submit his reputation to such indignities. - While we have marked time, the atomic race has gone on. Race it is, and will continpe to be until and unless a . workable agreement is reached in the United Nations to establish control of atomic energy on ‘a world basis.
Mr. Gromyko’s belated and conditional acceptance this week “of the one portion of the Baruch plan. It is the race for the big stakes—national survival. We cannot afford to run second.
“WASTING OUR TIME UDWELL DENNY, Scripps-Howard staff writer reporting from Moscow, finds the foreign ministers’ conference turning into a “dangerous farce”—serving only as a sounding board for Soviet propaganda. The conference, called to consider German problems, has accomplished nothing in four weeks. In every way it has been a repetition of previous meetings in Paris and’ New York: Day after day, Mr. Molotov has harrangued sessions - with dull reiterations aimed solely at the gallery, at home and abroad. He has refused to modify any. of Russia's faptastic demands, and has ignored or ridiculed all our counterproposals. _ Germany, as Mr. Denny points out, is able to exist at a near-starvation level by American and British subsidies. She cannot become self-supporting, much less pro- ~ duce a surplus, without several years of allied pump-prim-
Molotov proposes not one but three obvious impossibilities: Give the Germans more food and goods at once, give France
payments quickly to Russia of $10 billion worth of German goods and services as reparations. Mr. Molotov may fool his own people with these absurdities. But why should we be a party to such nonsensical, dishonest proceedings?
# ” " » " » WE ARE doing more than lend character to the show the Soviets are putting on. We are being placed in a false position where we are likely to be blamed for all the hunger and chaos in Germany, the coal shortage in France and a possible breakdown of Soviet economy in Russia itself. . The Russian propaganda is certain to win a measure of acceptance by the sheer force of its copstant repetition. Isn’t it time to dismiss all this bunk with the contempt it deserves, and turn our attention to constructive tasks in that part of the world willing to co-operate with us?
‘IN SPITE OF STRIKES
ROM the viewpoint of those who want real “anti-labor” legislation, the telephone and coal strikes came at just the right time. They ended a welcome period of industrial peace which, even if it was largely synthetic, had given the labor committees of congress a chance to study their problems in an atmosphere of reasonable calm. : While that period lasted, there was fair prospect that thoughtful, moderate bills would be prepared and considered dispassionately by house and senate. There was good hope for avoiding mistakes so likely to be made in the heat of Crisis. . ~ : Simultaneous nationwide strikes in two vital industries changed the picture. Advocates of much more stringent measures than seemed possible a week or so‘ago have - perked up. They hope to rush through ‘the house, in two PEE son dave next week; 4 bill examination but described, by some of its own Sponsors, as . “much tougher” than the one being prepared. for the senate. Need for sound, corrective labor legislation has been apparent for many years. Opportunity to enact it is better _ In this congress than ever before. We don't want to see that opportunity booted away by extremists who favor action so drastic that the two branches of congress might be unable to agree on it, or that President Truman would be justified in using the veto.

It looks to us like they have been the victims bad advice.

WASHINGTON, April 11.—Competent observers just back. from Europe fear Russia may seek to complicate the Greek and Turkish situation by Communist coups in Italy and possibly in France and Spain.
