Bevin Asks Limitation On German Central Powers
Moscow. —(UP)—Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin today proposed to the big four conference that a decentralized government be established for Germany in which the powers of the central administration would be specifically limited.
Secretary Bevin's plan was almost an opposite to that favored by the Soviet Union. The British proposal coincided, however, in most respects with the principles laid down by the former secretary of state, James F. Byrnes, for a "United States of Germany."
Car 'Accessories' Are Part Of Sale, Survey Shows
Detroit,—(UP)—Automobile dealers across the nation are loading new cars with expensive accessories as a condition of sale, many limited only by a growing shortage of such extras, a United Press survey showed today.
Buyers reported trade-in markdowns by dealers up to $500 on low-priced makes. In the trade, dealers add up to $400 worth of extras on the new car. Thus, new-car buyers sustain losses up to $500 on such deals, making the actual cost of the lowest-priced car about $2,200.
Sign Assistance Agreement
Manilla.—(UP)—President Manuel Roxas and Ambassadro Paul V. McNutt today signed a military assistance agreement between the Philippines and the United States giving American military equipment and supplies to the Philippines armed forces.

U.S. Imperialist Chubb Declares
Americans condemn Russian expansion and the spread of Communism, but the United States follows a similar policy of "expansion and imperialism," Prof. Herman Chubb of the political science department told the Y.M.C.A. Forum Thursday.
"Look at America through Russian eyes." Professor Chubb said. "We are the cock of the walk in the Western hemisphere. Our territorial possessions spread across the Pacific from the Philippines to Alaska, from the Isthmus of Panama to the Virgin Islands."
Dr. Chubb pointed to future United States expansion through trusteeships of strategic islands under the United Nations council, and in taking over British commitments in Greece.
"What we do will be promotion of the old imperialists idea," he said. He added that the United Nations classifies islands into two groups, those that are important in their natural resources and may be raised to self-government, and those that have few resources and little population but strategic value.
Dr. Chubb said the state department's proposed policy in Greece "is just another bit of expansion."
"During the war we took from Japan the northern islands which had been mandated to her by the League of Nations. We have stepping stones all across the Pacific. Now we want to retain them."
Dr. Cribo said the state department's proposed policy in Greece "is just another bit of expansion."
"We ought to aid the Greek people. But why didn't we channel it through the United Nations? We were instrumental in setting it up, and now by our act of taking over in Greece, we are giving a body blow to the United Nations council even before it gets a chance to stand on its feet."
"After the first World War Mr. Roosevelt said that the Rhine was America's first line of defense—who knows if now the Hellespont won't be our first line of defense."

A-Bomb Security In Inspection KU Scientists Say
Our only hope for security against the atom bomb is an international inspection system said three Uhii versity professors in the second in a series of roundtable discussions over KFKU Thursday.
Dr. Ethan Allen, chairman of the political science department; Dr. David Hume, assistant chemistry professor who was at the Oak Ridge project; and Dr. W. J. Argersinger, assistant professor of chemistry; who worked on the Manhattan project at Dayton, Ohio, made up the group of speakers.
Final program in the series, "The Atomic Bomb—Actual Political Program to Date" will be presented over KFKU at 9:30 p.m. next Thursday. Speakers will be Doctor Allen, H. B. Chubb, and W. E. Sandelius, of the political science department.
Dr. Hume outlined the inspection plan in four parts—inspection of mining, of transforming ore to pure uranium, of separating explosive uranium or changing to plutonium, and of bomb manufacture.
Of these stages Dr. Argersinger said, "the first three are easy to inspect. By the time the fourth is reached it is too late."
The speakers listed the third stage as the critical one in which the material could be diverted to military uses.
The professors agreed that inspection under proper internaitonal 'control was scientifically feasible, relatively simple and cheap compared to atomic war.
The U.S. too would have to be inspected so that other nations could feel secure. And we would have to knowledge to train the inspectors.
The only obstacle to inspection a political one, they agreed
Dr. Hume agreed that we now have no security. "The bomb most certainly will be used on us as soon as others get it, and it is no secret."
The only bosses in the election a political one, they agreed. Dr. Argersinger said, "the United States is an ideal target for attack with the bomb. It is highly industrialized, concentrated in population and communication. If attack came tomorrow we couldn't stop it."
