Berenger Doubts Possibility
Of DemOcrat-Fascist Peace
Concessions to Auto.
cratic POlUerS Seen Fail
ing to End Strife.
BY WILLIAM BIRD.

PARIS, September 25.-Can au-
tocracy and democracy co-exist, or
must they meet in war to the death?
That is the question that really lies
at the base of all foreign relations
today.
Nobody in France, at least. is more
competent to answer it than M. Henry
Berenger, who for many years has
been chairman of the French Senate
Committee on Foreign Affairs. and
who is we'll remembered in America
as a former French Ambassador to
Washington.
Senator Berenger's answer to the
question is decidedly pessimistic. Au-
tocracy, whether it is called fascism
or Naziism, can live on neighborly
terms with democracy only on the
condition of ceasing to interfere in
the internal affairs Of other nations. "
Unfortunately, Senator Berenger
points out, both Germany and Italy
are launched on policy of unlimited
interference and even aggression,
coupled with an utter. disregard of
treaties and of the rights of other
nations. From Italy's seizure of Ethi-
opia and Hitlers invasion of the
Rhineland demilitarized zone to the
present Italo-German campaign in
Spain, both Italy and Germany have
given countless proofs of their deter
mination to NaZify and Fascisize Eu-
rope and eventually the world.
Many Concessions Made.
The democratic nations of Eu-
rope, headed by France and Eng
land, have during the last four years
made countless concessions to the
autocratic powers and have signed
with them numerous agreements, all
of which have promptly been vio-
lated. Among these Senator Beren-
ger points to the so-called four
power agreement of 1888, the Rome
agreement of January, 1885; the
Stresa declaration of three months
later and the "gentlemen's agree
ment' Of January, 1886 They were
signed, on the democratic side, with
entire good faith, in the hope that
they would help to pacify the atmos-
phere.
Now they (the democracies) see
that they were tricked, that the auto
cratic governments do not understand
the meaning of the words, good
faith that they have no law but
their will, nor any bond but their
Evening star., 1937-09-26

own interest. Any further effort at
conciliation would be dupery," Sem
ator Berenger adds.
Democracies Resist Clash.
Until now the democratic powers
have reacted not at all. or very feebly.
They have sought to avoid a clash,
in the hope that time would work in
their favor. The trouble is, however.
that the hesitations of London and
Paris have caused much alarm among
the smaller powers. Yugoslavia and
Rumania, if they have not actively
gone Nazi," have undoubtedly been
impressed by the succession of victo-
ries that autocracy has won over
democracy in the past few years.
Belgium, while still far from embrac-
ing the Nazi system, has broken away
from its alliance with England and
France. Czechoslovakia is becoming
alarmed, realizing that Germany de-
sires nothing more than to pounce on
Prague and will do so on the day that
she is convinced she can do it with
impunity.
In short. as Senator Berenger views
it, nothing is being done to prevent
war or to render it less probable. The
concessions made by democracy to
autocracy have not only made matters
worse, for they have both encouraged
the autocratic powers to continue and
intensity their. aggressions and have
discouraged and alienated many of
democracy's allies. Not only is war
being rendered a certainty, but, as
time goes on. the democratic alliance
Is growing weaker and less capable of
resisting the autocratic advance.
