The article focuses on issues related to world politics. Debate on the question of who killed the London, England conference is now in full swing. U.S. Secretary James Byrnes, while restrained in his language, has placed the blame squarely on the Soviet delegation, which, he charged, sought to dictate to the other conferees. His Republican assistant, John Foster Dulles, has suggested that the Russians devised the procedural controversy to test whether American principles were stronger than the American desire for unity in so doing, he added, that were within their rights and the result was a useful demonstration of the fact that the United States really did mean to stick to its principles.
