Russia Pursues Policy of
Obstruction and Propaganda
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washlneton Correspondent
^'ASHINGTON*—(NFA)—-The list of acts by which the United
St.ites has indicated n desire to co-operate with Soviet Russia if
os Ifn? 'is your arm. The list of acts in response, by which thi
Russians have indicated they hove no desire to co-operate, is ever
loneer.
The Russians continually use the United Nations to. further theii
propaganda, instead of trying to promote the UN aims of achicvinf
world pcnce and security.
The Soviet lias used the veto 23 times in the Security Council.
_ In the UN Central Assembly where there is no veto, the Russian;
nave resorted to the use ol boycotts to obstruct action and show theii
linu illinqne s to co-operate w ith other nations.
In thi manner Soviet Delegate Andrei Gromyko has refused to takt
part in the work of the "Little Assembly." This is the 57-man interiir
jcorr.n.ittee set up to consider any matter before the'Assembly, includinj
;P"' ible icMsiori of the UN Charter to limit use of the veto. Not onlj
•has Itu'Ma boycotted th ' committee, but she has persuaded five o
|her satellite nations to boycott it.
'J) USSf A has" also boycotted the U.\" Temporary Commission for Kore:
and the UN Special Balkan Commission created by the Assemblj
to investigate and try to brum peace to those troubled areas. Instear
of promoting peace in Greece and Korea, from within Russian-
controlled areas hove come concerted moves to cause discord anc
revolution against e tablished governments.
Similar pressure has bjeen exerted against Iran, China and Turkey
While the Russians have waged a great propaganda campaign tot
reduction of armaments, as a matter of record the work of the US
Commission on Conventional Armaments has been at a standstill tot
two years, due to Russian obstruction.
After more than 2ti? meetings, the work of the UN Atomic Energj
Commission has come to a standstill, solely because the Russian:
have refused to accept American offers to share the benefits from this
new discovery, under international controls.
The United States has urged Russian participation in all the special-
ized agencies of the United Nations. The Soviet Union has joined only
three. It ha refused to take part in eight, fn the three it has joined
the Soviet attitude has been one of disinterest or outright obstruction
CTALJN agreed at Yalta to assist liberated countries in solving theii
problems by demo, ratio means. In practice the Russians prevented
free elections in Poland. Romania, Hungary and Bulgaria. While the
Russians had agreed to consult American and British officials with
regard to the Balkan countries, these officials were completely
by-passed. ,
Soviet looting of Eastern Europe,' Manchuria and Korea have se-
riously hampered recovery of these areas. When the Russians were
finally persuaded to consider drafting of peace treaties with Italy
and the Balkan countries. Foreign Minister Molotov and his deputies
strung out the negotiations, then held up ratification for seven months.
At Yalta the Rus ians were given two extra UN votes for White
Russia and the Ukraine, though the U.S. had only one.
At Yalta and Potsdam the Russians were given territory in the
K'irilts'. Sakhalin, Polrnd cast of the Curzon line and the northern
part of Ka-t Prussia. They were given concessions in Port Arthur,
Daircn and the M.xichui tan railroads.
Furthei con.. ions were given for the collection of reparations by
Russia in Italy. Austria and western Germany. In exchange for the
German reparatu n<. V. S . British and French zones were to receive
fond and fuel fium east Germany, but practically nothing has been
delivered.

ROCHESTER, N. Y. <U.P—Thr
trucks of electrons, -wnall nega-
tively-charged atom particles, huve
h en recorded successfully ii the
research laboratories of th" East-
map Kodak Cu.
A new photographic emulsion
was used ir> the experiment, the
company announced. indicating
that it was ihe first definite identi-
fication of electron tracks.
Tracks were first reported from
the University of Montreal in lf>46.
But the Kodak tracks, obtained at1
Hajrow, England, and later in Ro-
chester. are long enough to remove
al' doubt as to their identity.
The number of developed silver
grains per track in th« emulsion
ranges from six to 28. Length of
the path is about two-thousandths
of an inch—two-thirds the thick-
ness- of an average sheet of paper.
Termed a valuable tool for stud-
ies of atomic disintegration, the
la u emulsion is expected to prove
useful in research on cosm.c rays
arid in rpedical research involving
rnrfio-activ.i isotopes.
. In autoradiography, where ra-
dio active tissue is placed in close
contact with a photographic mater-
ial. the new emulsion will i nahle
scif ntists to detect with extereme
(■r< eision the source of eelctrons in
the tissue.

When one of the flying electrons I

Ifs Leap Year, Girls!
FRECKLES AND HIS FRIENDS
Firat girl in our town to "get her
r.in" on Lnp Year n< the ( up-
pers' daughter. Jane, who wed Bill
Webster'* boy last Saturday.
When I askid Bill Jr. if it was
true that Janey really dul the pro-
posing, Bill ai l • No, but she made
it plain she'd make an ideal wife.
Instead of looking for diversion or
excitement every eveninir. she was
content to chat beside the fire.
"I could plainly see," says Bill,
"that we'd really have a happy
home life—which is ju t exactly
what I want from Marriage."
I know it'; usual for older folk* to
shake their heads over the younger
generation. (It's gone on for hun-
dreds of years, now.)
But from where I sit, young
people of marrying age today are
every bit as commendable as their
elders were—in their temperance
(a glass of beer for instance), tol-
erance, and common sense. So to
Jane and Bttl—the best of luck!
