"Each of these islands was either an operational base or was prepared as such, hence the disruption cf our work has been great,” according to Dr. Burton's article in the recent issue of the “Christian Advocate." “A little over a 100 years ago. Tonga. Samoa, and Fiji were completely heathen. Now we have strong native churches there that are truly indigenous. They are self-supporting. self-operating, and self-propagating." Dr. Burton wrote.
The natives used to think they were inferior to the whites, but now they realize the only difference lies in the opportunities offered to the different groups. Dr. Burton also pointed out the fact that if the whites didn't stop exploiting the natives, two-thirds of the world’s native population would rise up against them.
As an example of the inquisitive minds the natives are developing. Dr. Burton related an incident that

He takes into account fhe geography, peoples, and cultures that make up the sprawling Soviet Union. and explains what Influence these factors have on the overall picture in Russia.
Dallin also considers American public opinion in disclosing the political personalities and policies which form the eddies and currents of Russian politics.

Moscow resolution causes disagreement on weapon exchange
LONDON, Jan. 6 — (U.E) — The American delegation to the United Nations congress Is split as to whether to sqpport the Moscow resolution on atomic energy authorita-1 WM tive informants said tonight.
Opponents may force revision of i ffjg| the resolution to further safeguard the secret of tne atom bomb, according to these sources. They also seek stronger guarantees of reci- | procity in exchange for scientific information.
So strong is the opposition, in- ! formants said, that congressional approval of the resolution would be jeopardized unless objections were met.
The American delegation discussed the resolution at length on the way here and it was understood that the views of opponents were now before the delegation in written form.
The whole question is to be ironed out when Secretary of State James F. Byrnes arrives for the world assembly starting Thursday.
Other delegates are Edward R Stettinius Jr., chief delegate; Sen.
Tom Connally, D.. Tex., and Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt.
