Show new is TH B by PAUL LON released by western newspaper union RUSSIAN DELEGATES SHOW AMIABLE WORLD RELATIONS SAN FRANCISCO deate and positive assertions as to what this conference and the world will do are ara being flung rather freely around A commonly popular one in the news Is that the conference as one exceptionally able writer has put it has proceeded to the point where a new era Is assured behind this line of current thought running through the news and comment me n t Is th the a idea that the R russians have been brought around to acceptance of democratic methods they gave in on the argentina question and molotov afterward called on state secretary Stettin fus and made mada molotov certain other gestures creating a new amiable and friendly spirit it Is tha thus us true enough that the attitude with which mr molotov if not russia herself came into this cov con ference Is being altered but down deep inside everyone here knows peace and the settlement of world problems will be a long process the mil ledlum Is nowhere here yet visible to my eyes the precise degree of progress that his has been made is that russia has shown a willingness to cooperate and that this has put the delegates naturally la in a better frame of mind now Is this new spirit can be carried forward to the application of an all problems then the new era will trul truly have arrived but to keep a propel perspective of the actual condition it must be reported that the problems I 1 still remain all of them mani many grave deep problems ol of every economic financial and political nature what has been done here so BO far has been merely to get gel an agreement on the or organization of the conference therefore it should be plain future hopes hope a here can not be based on anthe 7 the receptivity ol of this governments attitude to toward 1 russia but upon the receptivity recep if v 17 0 the russian attitude toward demo crable processes action taken slowly the questions I 1 hear asked by men here who have given earnest thought to the matter an all run down to that single focal proposition it took this world peace meeting exactly q a week to get down to the business of naming its committees and commissions to do the actual work tor for which it was assembled during that week the loud speakers of the opera house recorded speeches from all the interested parties and the organizational dis of the major powers the speeches set forth largely the pleas of the small powers for mutual respect of nations recognition of human values principles of justice not far from the line which mr truman laid down at the outset in his bis appeal for simple justice I 1 would say that as tar far as words are concerned most of the nations are not far apart but some of them were not represented in all these expressions it liay may be reported also that the smaller nations will win concessions in the dumbarton formula the extent and nature of which will be ironed out by bargaining and this represents progress also behind all these developments however the nations were sounding each other out from their experiences perien per fences ces they have a more complete knowledge of just how much each one warts wants to that extent great progress has been made but it would be safer to report progress here not victory the nine point program of dumbarton oaks amendments adopted by the american delegation represented quite a personal victory tor for senator it was the michigan republican who first demanded the main points such as inclusion of the word and ideal 0 oi jus justice tice through the charter and opportunity tor for future peaceful change of the world setup as well as the charter other forces prescribed what seemed in general to me to be basic changes ot of theory from dumbarton oaks along the same lines such as specific inclusion of th the e atlantic charter ideals return to international law world court safeguarding human rights etc from a political standpoint the doctrines of international law and world court have a republican origin while the atlantic charter and human rights lines were developed by mr roosevelt the improvements devised by americans h here ere therefore represent a genuine compromise promise seand and exhibit what I 1 think is an outstanding development of this meeting namely a return to a 8 spirit of cooperation among amerl can political interests which is I 1 sc EC vitally essential most of the in side voting in the delegation hag ha been unanimous |
