Molotov, in turn, invited only two aides, the famous Deputy For- eign Commissar Vyshinsky, who presecuted the seven Soviet gener- als for treason, and the Kremlin's «chief interpreter, Vladimir Pavlov. Dinner was gay and charming. Jimmie Byrnes is delightful at light repartee, while Molotov, underneath his scowl, has a real sense of hu- mor. Usually the Russians serve only Soviet products at their din- ners, but this time they made a concession and included French wine. ‘ with the best the there is no reason rule; (2) A committee of experts to set up a tentative boundary be- tween Yugoslavia and Italy for one year and then let the General Assembly of the United Nations decide the issue under Section 14 of the United Nations Charter. Molotov flatly vetoed both pro- posals. The first, he said, would lead to confusion and possible blocdshed. Regarding the second, he remarked that he knew full well how the British-American-dominat- ed Assembly would vote. Byrnes, however, refused to yieid. This caused Molotov and Vyshin- sky to hit the ceiling. They saw red. They charged that the United States had embarked on a new im- perialistic chapter in its history. When Byrnes asked what basis there was for such a charge, the | two Russians protested that the| know-how in foreign business—and other lines since the war have demonstrated their ability to compete rest of the world has to offer.

A critic of the Truman Administration from the left, rath- er than from the right, Morse was uncertain how far he could go be- fore a mixed audience in the Pres- ident’s own state. When introduced, Morse began: “I have been looking forward to this trip for a long time. I don't know the state of Missouri very well, but in the last year I have become acquainted with a great many Missourians in Washington. “One reason I have been looking forward to this trip is that I wanted to see if the Missourians I meet in Washington are typical of the State. I am glad to see that they are not.” When applause greeted this test, Morse plunged into a vigorous at- tack on Missouri’s leading citizen. ‘Unit_ed States had abandoned its | THE LADY FROM CONNECTICUT | traditional policy of remaining in| Th e tral * {the Western Hemisphere and was | e MoQarian R Mo et MOLOTOV OFFERS COM- PROMISE After the cigars were passed, the two Foreign Ministers got down to hard-headed business. Molotov led by stating frankly that the Rus-‘ sians were worried about the con- | Jerence stalemate and were prepar- ed to make concessions if the United States were willing to meet them half-way. | Byrnes, falling back on his South ' Carclina caution, listened, then be- gan to explore what concessions Molotov was prepared to make. i The first was a suggestion that Russia would yield on Ialian col- onies if the United States. wouid yleld on Trieste.

Molctuy the the Russians micht sce their way ‘clear to giving ‘up their demand for complete con- t1ol, cver Tripclitania, the Italian i {s ‘almost astride the through the” Med- dte.ienean. Byrnes expressed real interest and probed what further concessions Molotoy had to offer. The Soviet might even yield on extensive reparations from Italy, Molotov continued, though he add- ed that this would disappoint the Russian people who felt they were cntitled to at least $300,000,000 from Italy. Byrnes asked Molotov how far he was willing to go, and got the reply that Russia might drop to $100,000,000. This was confirmed publicly a day or two later. Byrnes then asked Molotov what suggestions he had to make on Trieste. Herc the Soviet Foreign Minister was brief and explicit. He propesed that the United States and Great Britain agree to give Trieste to Yugoslavia. BRYNES COUNTERS At this point, Byrnes took his first negative stand. He said that {he United States could never agree to handing the predominately Ital- jan city of Trieste over to Marshal “Tito. Instead, he offered two coun- ‘ter-proposals: (1) A < plebiscite | whereby the«people of <the region | . could decide whether they wanted to live under Italian or Yugoslav, trying to get bases in Iceland, France, Portugal, Iran, Turkey and China. Byrnes emphatically denied this. | He said his Government was try- ing to get out of all these countries | as fasb’as it could. He pointed out | that in Iceland only 772 Americans were left, mostly plane mechanics | and caretakers. And, getting his | South Carclina dander up, Byrnes' accused the Russians of a vicious, | lying propaganda attack. | BYRNES EXPLODES ! Usually the height of geniality, Jimmie Byrnes is basically Irish, . and at this point he tco hit the ceiling. Nobody, he said, could find a single nation in the entire world ' that was worried about American | imperialism or American aggres- sion. The same, he added, was not | urue of Russia. i Byrnes then gave Molotov a | blunt warning that the Kremlin ! was permitting the goodwill which | the war had built up for Russia to| fade rapidly from the face of the ' earth. He said he saw no reason for a Russian diatvibe at “Ameri- can imperialism" simply because he ' had refused to yield on Trieste. The entire question of alleged im- perialism had been gone over thoroughly at the Moscow confer- ence, Byrnes said, and he strongly resented Molotov and Vyshinsky's raising the issue again. The “dinner party” broke up cn this note. Later Molotov cabled the details to Moscow, told Stalin how strong- ly the Americans felt and advised that Russia yield to save the con- ference. This was responsible for Russia’s more modified attitude a few days later, but by this time the British had some objections of their own, and it became clear the conference was doomed to fail- ure.
