The Allied atrocities of World War II are mounting daily in occupied Germany—not in mass slaughter by machine gun strafing, firing squads and gas chambers The post-war way is starvation.
Authorities blame the French because "France is hampering the Allied control council and is opposed to forming a central German administration to govern Germany."
The American public read these reports, swears at the French for being such block heds, and then forgets to go on in its thinking. The whole question isn't "who's to blame"—it's "what can we do about it?"
General Eisenhower advocates the early formation of a central German administration to govern Germany, but most of all, he stressed the need for America to send food to Germany and disregard payment for the time being.
Turning soft?
If practicing what we preach in the way of human treatment, taking care of women, children, and the aged, doing what we can to control disease and crime, keeping the educational facilities of Germany operating, and fusing something of our own standard of living into a vanquished country is turning soft—then why not?
A controlled revival of German agriculture industry, and trade and the organization of German administrative machinery must be brought about soon.
If the French are to blame for conditions in Germany, appropriate action must be taken to "bring them apound." In the meantime, let's keep out "atrocity" record clean - M.T.
Wanted: U. S. Policy
Maj. Gen. Patrick J. Hurley's dramatic statements explaining why he resigned as ambassador to China seem to indicate not a lack of understanding of the situation there, but rather a misconception of the attitudes of contemporary American "career" diplomats in China. In assuming his ambassadorial position Hurley had inherited, almost intact, the staff of his predecessor, Clarence Gauss, who always advocated a firm American policy toward the Chinese government.
During his tenure, Hurley clearly pursued a policy favorable to the Chiang faction. He wholeheartedly pushed for unrestrained U.S. aid to the Nationalists, as it was the only party he recognized in China as able and willing to promote democracy inter. This interpretation did not

Experienced career men have long maintained that both the rival Chinese factions represent dictatorial interests, and that the Americans should not interfere with another nation's sovereignty to the extent of risking American lives and property.
In part Hurley's action can be explained as a face-saving device over his failure to effect even a partial settlement. However, failure to reach an accord can not all be attributed to Mr. Hurley's doggedness, since the very insincerity of the opposing Chinese factions in their peace efforts has consistently undermined any progress toward peace.
As a result, with neither American viewpoint strongly upheld by Washington, the administration of U.S.-China interests has been hampered by contradictory action and rife bitterness.
In any event, a coordinating statement from Washington of general U.S. intentions in China should be released soon if any progressive action by on-the-spot Americans is to be expected—F.F.
easier. Take off your sweaters, or something.'
Where's the chemistry building, son?"
"I don't know." (unoriented freshman speaking).
Heard on the campus.
"You don't know much, do you?"
"No, but I ain't lost."
Insubordination on the flanks:
Theta Mary Alford's date Saturday night, a navy i. g., who hadn't wanted to go to the carnival in the first place, became even more soured on things when he was surrounded by a circle of men who stood laughing at him. The group was identified as a bunch of "anything for a price" Phi Dell's acting under a two-dollar contract with several V-12's.
Not so dumb. A certain young thing on the campus had been playing a certain young man at that not-so-young sucker game. She was doing all right until the other day when the certain not-so-dumb man came across with the Christmas gift a little early—it was one all-day sucker.
People. Some roll around like a ball and get bounced; some are like chandeliers and get lit every night; some are like plumbers and get around all the points; some are like a tree and get trimmed; most are like a patrol wagon and do in a pinch.
Drunk last night: A certain young man was on his wobbly way home one night in Kansas City when he ran smack into a tree. He backed off and tried again. Wham into the same tree. Once again, Another direct hit. After several other attempts he was heard to exclaim trigically, "Lost-lost in an impenetrable foresh."
Noah's Art: Sophistication—college woman who knows how to refuse a kiss without depriving herself of it. Evening gown—low and behold.
Carnival king: In The "Sit on Santa's Lap" booth Saturday night it was Dorothy Shields, Theta pledge, to whom Jayhawkers confided. Dorothy has always been known for her hearty laugh.
