Blunt Saw

Premier U Saw of Burma is a tough talker. About to leave London for the U.S. last week, he admitted a passage at words with Winston Churchill: "Churchill ... was very blunt. I was blunt too."

In Washington he hoped to persuade President Roosevelt to intercede with his co-author of the Atlantic Charter to apply it manfully to Burma.
