The Japanese Treaty
(Part Five)
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON.—(NEA)—A vital but little un
derstood feature of the proposed Japanese treaty is
its joint sponsorship by the United States and
Great Britain., There is npw much better coopera
tion between these two nations on Far Eastern
affairs, This gives the pact double strength and a
double chance for success.
Ambassador John Foster Dulles was largely re
sponsible for this happy relationship. Today he
likes to emphasize how the English speaking coun
tries are pulling together. But relations weren’t
nearly so cozy at the start of negotiations.
In the Fall of 1950, Dulles filled in the British on
American ideas for & treaty. He ot no reaction
then,
But when he went 10 Japan in January, the Brit
ish government cabled its Tokyo representative at
General MacArthur's headquarters, Sir Alvary
Gascoigne, to protest against some of the U. S.
proposals.
For one thing, the British wanted Japan’s excess
shipbuilding capacity destroyed. Australia and New
Zealand backed this, too.
Dulles inquired and learned Japan was then car
rying only 17 percent of its ocean trade in its own
ships. A fair proportion for any country is 50 per
cent.,
Of Japan's 800,000-ton capacity shipyards, 130,
000 had been destroyed by the war. The remainder
was no more than Japan needed. Furthermore,
Dulles asked the British if they thought the Japan
ese should destroy their surplus shfpyards. As a
first act after signing the treaty, that was sure to
agonize Japan,
In the end, limits on shipbuilding capacity were
left out of the treaty. !
When Dulles left Japan for Australia and New
Zealand to talk over the peace treaty, he found that
Sir Esler Denning, British Foreign Office expert on
the Far East, was also in those countries. Officially,
it was explained away as coincidence. But it was
obvious that the British were suspicious of Ameri
can motives in the Pacific.
There was British fear that the proposed Pacific
Pact—a defense alliance between the U. S., Austra
lia, New Zealand and the Philippines—would incite
the Russian and Chinese Communists to greater
aggression against Hong Kong and Malaya.
Another concern was that the United States
would take over Britain’s pre-war dominance in
Far Eastern trade. Coupled with this was a fear
that Japan might become too closely allied finan
cially with American dollar exchange. Before the
war, Japan had been in the Briaish sterling area of
trade. i
These and other differences appeared in all their
ugliness when a team of British diplomats came to
Washington last April to help the U, S. State De
partment team draft the treaty. The group was
headed by Charles Johnson, British Foreign Office
expert on Japan. Sir Esler Denning came along.
> - A
They produced a treaty draft early in May. But
it was satisfactory to neither the British nor the
Armrericans,
In this situation, it was decided Dulles would
have to go to London. It was essential to get com
plete agreement on the Japanese treaty with top
British officials. The mission was critical. A split
between the two powers would play into Russian
hands and be world-shaking,
Dulles was in London from June 2 to 15. He met
most frequently with Foreign Minister Herbert
Morrison. He had an hour’s talk with Prime Minis
ter Clement Attlee. -
There were long meetings in House of Commons
conference rooms, Since the Labor government had
a majority of only six votes, it was essential that
British officials stick to their Parliamentary knit
ting.
- . .
Talks boiled down to three main peints of dif
ference: National Chinese or Red Chinese partici
pation in the treaty, disposition of Formosa, and
limits on Japanese rearmament.
China was the big problem. The British main
tained that since the Reds held the mainland it was
realistic to invite their participation.
The U. S. said in rebuttal that all negotiations
thus far had been with Nationalist China. It was a
member of the Far Eastern Commission, controlling
the Jap occupation. Most important, Red China was
at war with the UN and its menyber governments.
Dulles argued that Japan as a sovereign power
ought %0 make the decision on China. The British
said a majority of the Allied nations should make it.
Dulles countered with.the thought that such dif
farences should not be allowed to delay the pact.
Eventually he won the British cabinet over to this
view. So neither Chinese slde will participate in
the San Francisce meeting.
The ultimate fate of Formosa lkewise is left to
the future.
Japanese rearmament was argued for one whole

New Journalism Book Cites
The Banner-Herald
While reading the very informative “Georgia
Journalism” (University of Georgia Press), by John
E. Talmadge and Louis Griffith of the Henry W.
Grady School of Journalism, we came across refer
ence to how this newspaper, then known as The
Southern Banner, helped, Georgia in the Union
back in 1850.
With Cobb and Toombs, The Southern Banner
campaigned to preserve the union of states by hold
ing Georgia within its framework. They organized
the Constitutional Union party in Georgia and won
the day for the union, according to the authors of
“Georgia Journalism.”
Ten years after, however, The Southern Banner
was with the secessionists, it having appeared by
then that preservation of the union was hopeless.
Georgia in 1850 was a pivotal state politically,
which sounds strange in these times after it has
clung to one party for more than half a century.
This newspaper had its origin in the publication
back in 1808 of the Georgia Express, here in Ath
ens. The town and the University then were only
a few years old. “Georgia Journalism” says the
Georgia Express became the Athens Gazette in
1813 or 1814 and then, in 1828, it became The Ath
enian, changing its name again in 1832 to The
Southern Banner when The Athenian was bought
by Albon Chase,
The Athenian was in the thick of the anti-tariff
fight back in the late 1820 s. During those days
anti-tariff meetings were held on the campus of the
University of Georgia and as a result of those
meetings, and The Athenian’s fight, the first textile
mills in the history of this community, among the
first in the South, were established here. One of
these mills is now the Athens division of Chicopee
Manufacturing Company and the other was for
years known as Georgia Factory. )
One of this newspaper’s contributions to this
community, of which we are proud, is the leader
ship and support it gave to the movement for Ath
ens to own its waterworks system. More than a
half century ago our waterworks was owned by an
out-of-state concern, but as a result of the move
ment in which this newspaper took a strong and
decisive part, the City of Athens became owner.
Ownership of its waterworks was one of the best
things that ever happened to Athens, especially
from the standpoint of revenue to the municipality
and industrial growth. In recent years this news
paper made another decisive c¢ontribution to the
development of our municipal waterworks by the
support we gave the bond issue to build a modern
waterworks plant sixteen years ago. When the new
plant was opened The Banner-Herald received an
appreciated letter from the late Mr., A. G. Dudley,
then Mayor.
Of course, it was the City Engineer, Mr. J. G.
Beacham, and Mayor Dudley who first recognized
the need for a modern waterworks but, as Mayor
Dudley pointed out, The Banner-Herald was the
chief factor in gaining approval of the bonds at a
time when it was dxflmg to get the necessary
votes for a bond issue:
Mayor Dudley in 1936 wrote: “It is needless for
me to say that without the support of The Banner-
Herald the bond election for the new waterworks
could not have been passed. Your paper has stood
for the best in the commmunity. Forty years ago it
pioneered in giving Athens its first municipal wa
terworks, an event notable in the City's history.”
Another contribution By this newspaper, upon a
statewide basis, was its fight against a Constitu
tional amendment harmful to the public services of
the smaller communities, for which we were
awarded in 1937 the Sutlive trophy by the Georgia
Press Association for “meritorious public service.”
At the time The Banner-Herald was awarded the
Sutlive trophy it received many letters of commen
dation and appreciation from citizens all over the
state, exemmplified by the declaration of Mr. M. H.
Bryan, now president of the Federal Reserve Bank
of Atlanta, who characterized our part in the cam
paign as “an excellent illustration of the manner in
which an informed and courageous press can serve
the people.”
Throughout the years this newspaper has sought
to serve the community and the state in a variety
of ways. The above instances are cited as typical of
the part journalism can take in promoting public
welfare whenever it so chooses.
We are indebted to “Georgia Journalism” and its
authors for their recitation of some of the accom
plishments of this newspaper and for what they
have found and written concerning the activities
of many other Georgia newspapers. Their book is
a most valuable contribution not only to newspa
perdom but to the history of our state.
'Do-Less-Than-Nothing
Congress
President Trunran called the Republican 80th
Congress a “do-nothing” assembly. Let’s see how it
stacks up with its successors in work done.
As of August 10, 1947, the 80th had passed 338
public laws. By the same date in 1949, the later
81st Congress had approved 220. The present 82nd
Congress finished work on just 110 in the same
period. '
Quantity, of course, shouldn’t be the prime
measure of performance. But by the test of quality,
the 82nd looks worse if anything. Efforts of cone
gressional leaders to suggest that this sorry prog
ress represents the extremely careful deliberations
of wise statesmen look pretty foolish.

Over The Falls In A Barrel Would Be
Safe And Sane At Vickshurg's Niagara
By CHARLES FAULK
NEA Special Correspondent
VICKSBURG, Miss—ls you're
planning a trip over Niagara Falls
in a barrel, the safest place to do
it is in Vicksburg, Miss.
Here, at the Corps of Engineers’
Waterways Experiment Station,
the cataract has been reproduced
in miniature. Engineers are study
ing the model to determine what
effect, if any, a huge power de
velopment plan might have on
the spectacular tourist attraction.
But barrels and daredevils have
no part in the serious business of
the model study at Vicksburg. The
problem is to work out the best
plan for generating nearly 8,000,-
000,000 more kilowatt hours of
electricity without sacrificing any
of Niagara’s grandeur. e
Under a sprawling frame build
ing, similar to those which house
many other river and harbor
models of Niagara flows from a
pint-sized Lake Erie, along a
make-believe international boun
dary, then hurtles over rock
studded rapids and drops into a
mist-shrouded chasm gpanned by
a miniature Rainbow Bridge. !
The model reproduces every
significant feature of the river
from the time it leaves Lake Erie
until it passes beyond the rapids
on its way to Lake Ontario on the
U. S.-Canadian border.
Built to scale horizontally and
vertically, it compresses 23 miles
of the river’s length into a bed
that is 260 feet long and scarcely
more than a running jump wide.
The model’s banks and bottom
contours match those that nature
has carved out along the river’s
course. In its lower reaches, clus
ters of diversion gates mark the
location of existing and proposed
generating plants.

ing a joint beautification program

of the U. S. and Canada, the model
is a made-to-order instrument for
the hydro-electric studies. Its goal
is to find “the most feasible gen
eral plan for utilization of water
apportioned to the United States
for power purposes under the 1950
treaty between Canada and the
United States.”
This treaty gives first priority
to the spectacle of the falls, and
leaves all surplus water to power
development. It set up a formula,
with a minimum amount of water
that must be allowed ‘o pour over
the falls.
The model here is designed to
check against any possible error
in this new diversion formula,
and to establish the most efficient
installations for the power in
takes. In their studies, the sea
soned hydraulics engineers who
have built thousands of similar
models in 25 years of experiment
ing with rivers and harbors, leave
nothing to chance.
So deliberate are their calcula
tions that they even float blocks
the size and density of ice cubes
across the cascades to reproduce
winter conditions in the river.
With a slide rule, they scale the
spectrum to guard the spectacu
lar color phenomena in the mists
below the cataract.
Everything is the same—except
for barrels.
MISSING MAN FOUND
SAVANNAH, Aug. 31—(AP)—
J. W. Donaldson, jr., of Register,
who has been reported missing
since August 20 and for whom a
wide search has been made, has
been located at Bangor, Me., ac
cording to a telephone call to Lee
Brannen of Register from Inspec-
Itlor John Hayes of the Bangor po
ce. ’
Meanwhile the father of Don
aldson, who is J. W. Donaldsan,
sr., was reported to be in Savan
nah and efforts were being made
to locate him here to advise him
of the finding of his son.
Inspector Hayes said Mr. Don
oldson, father of four children,
had driven to the Maine city in
his car and he appeared to be ill.
No explanation was given for the
trip.

day. Dulles reminded the British
that Japan had lost all the terri
tories from which she formerly
drew raw materials, thus limiting
her war-nmraking potential. He
stressed that a Japan antagonized
and held down might eventually
side with the Communists, who
then would gain the balance of
power in the Pacific. Again, he
convinced the British.
As men of, good will, they had
resolved their differences calmly.
They were working for the assur
ance Japan would in the future
use its strength on the side of the
Alliles and the UN. Dulles sum
med up the constructive approach
to the treaty in a little story.
You don’t ask anyone to join an
exclusive club, he said, and then
tell him: “You can’t sign chits at
the bar. You'll have to pay cash,
and we're going to limit you to
two drinks a day.” You take him
in as a full member, and expect
that he’ll: cooperate.
That’s how it will be with Japan
when she signs this treaty.

Half-Truce In Korea Is Termed
A Good Argument For Optimism
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK—(AP)—The cam
paign in Korea is the strangest in
the history of American arms.
For two months now more
words than bullets have been fired
in anger back and forth across
that weary peninsula. Instead of
trying to call each other’s shots,
each side has been calling each
other names.
Only a year ago the North Ko
rean order of the day was “on to
Pusan.” And the pledgling Amer
ican Army’s grim instructions
were to “stand or die” on the
Naktong river line. .
The present philosophy of all
adversaries seems to be that com
fortable old schoolyard slogan:
“Sticks and stones may break
my bones, but names will never
hurt me.”
Begun in a misty dawn bar
rage, the Korean War is dwind
ling toward a stalemate conclu
sion in a twilight of verbal re
criminations. It is like a summer
storm with the stabbing lightning
flashes dying down and the steam
ing hills muttering with distant
thunder.
Growing Impatience
Those who insist the world
should be all one thing or the
other have a growing impatience.
They regard the cease-fire nego
tiations as a waste of time. But
life—in war or peace—is more
often grey than either a clear-cut
black or white. And sometimes
half a truce is better than none.
An optimist could put up a
strong argument that the present
long-continued lull in major
ground warfare operations has
been a good thing all around.
It is true that it has given the
Chinese time in which to mass
fresh reinforcements. But it has
also given the Red Cihnese lead
ers plenty of time to do some de
pressing thinking about how fu
tile it is for them to mass those
troops. .
Where can they lead them? The
United Nations army is also big
ger, stronger and more confident
than ever. Its days of real re
treat are over. It now has the
reserve firepower to singe China’s
hordes as though they were so
many mindless grasshoppers.
The depth of military stalemate
therefore has been increased. And
the situation cries more clearly
every day for a diplomatic solu
tion. Red China’s problem—and
she knows it—is to pick the bro
ken pieces of her false dragon face
off the floor and try t® put them
back on strtight. She knows the
rest of the orient will snicker at
her, but there isn’t much else she
can do, important as saving “face”
is in her part of the world.
The lull has given South Korea
time to train more troops and do
something to help her millions of
displaced refugees. And the ave
rage Korean farmer, looking at
his greening paddies, can’t help
but pray to his household gods
that the unofficial truce will go
