Byrnes Pleads For Tolerance Toward Russia
Winston-Salem, N.C. — (UP) — Former Secretary of State James F. Byrnes answered Russian charges of "Warmongering" Wednesday night with an earnest plea for tolerance toward the Soviet Union.
Byrnes said he was deeply concerned with "the state of mind at times bordering on hysteria that ascribes to our former ally . . . all the ills and errors which two world wars have brought."
"We should not forget," he said, "what their people have been through and not lightly assume that the Soviet leaders, despite their blustering, bad manners and abuse, want war."
Byrnes reaffirmed his policy of "patience as well as firmness" toward Russia in a speech to the house of bishops of the Protestant Episcopal church.
Previously, Soviet Vice Foreign Minister Andrei Vishinsky had placed Byrnes' name on his growing list of American "warmongers."
Wismer Is Elected ISA Vice-President
In his speech, Byrnes referrer briefly to the "needless name-calling" of Soviet representatives in the United Nations assembly. He said such tacties were "unfortunate," and served only to exaggerate the fears and uncertainties which many Americans feel toward Russia.
Alice Wismer, College senior, has been elected vice-president of the Independent Student association to replace Patricia Graham, who resigned recently.

Balloting Slow Early Check Of Polls Shows
Sleepy election officials drowed at the polls this morning disturbed occasionally by the rustle of a lone ballot being slid across the table by some voter.
If 60 per cent of the freshman class of 1,786 is to visit the polls as predicted by the All Student Council, prospective voters will have to hurry to the basements of Marvin, Fraser, or Frank Strong halls, where the voting is taking place.
The battery of voting officials in Marvin basement had only 14 ballots to report, a poll judge at Fraser had tallied 43, and the booths in Frank Strong had learned the secrets of only 100 ballots.
The polls close at 6 p.m. and most election officials believe that voting will increase during between-class breaks and in the afternoon.
Molotov Says Bomb No Secret
London—(UP) — Soviet Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov told a cheering audience in Moscow today that "the secret of the atom bomb has long ceased to exist."
Molotov's statement on the atom bomb the full implications of which were not made clear immediately, was broadcast from Moscow, where he addressed an audience of Russian leaders celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution.
Molotov said America's belief in its "internal strength" based on knowledge of how to make the atom bomb was "an illusion."
"We live in a period where all roads lead to Communism," Molotov told his audience.
The speech was recorded in London by the Soviet monitor.
Molotov reaffirmed the Soviet intention of pursuing a peaceful course, saying:
"Suffice it to say how interested the Soviet Union is in a durable and lasting peace. All true friends of peace—and they constitute a majority of any country—can rest assured that the Soviet Union will defend the interests of peace to the last."
He cited Premier Josef Stalin's interview with Harold Stassen, American Presidential candidate, as evidence that the differing economic systems did not rule out peacetime collaboration with Russia by other countries.
