THE CORSICANA DAILY BUN, MONDAY, JANUARY 15, 1945. EIGHT FOREIGN Pacificist and dislike all kinds of King Welir told about it to cor. respondents who visited his palm thatched Palace on the Island where the Americans have collected all the Atoll natives. He spoke through in interpreter. The Ulithi natives have always looked to th nearby and much larger Island of Yap for guidance.

The three reigning native Kings of Yap are regarded as sovereigns with authority over the King of Ulithi and have always taken all their cut's an to fashions and culture from Yap.

The Island of Yap, about 80 miles from Ulithi, still held by the Japanese.

In the old days, that is, before last September 21 when American troops took Ulithi in an almost bloodless landing, the King could send 12 of hU men in one of their outriggers canoes over to Yap to pick up the latest in news and gossip, and bring back word to the womenfolk as to that the ladies in Yap were wearing this season The King could also hope to get 1'ttl advice on administrative problems himself from his uoyeil buperiors, the three Kings of Yap But no such thing is possible now.

Wheeler said, "emasculate the good neighbor policy, overrode the principle of foreign equality of all nations, offer in place of a genuinely international society of nations a grim military alliance, destroy the i very concept of neutrality.

Ball's sugegstion that the temporary council be empowered to review unilateral decisions made before its formation was in line with a demand voiced in the Senate last week by chairman Vanden berg (R Mich) of the Republican conference.
