rate and distinct groups of problems involved
in making peace. First, there are the urgent
things that must be done at once when firing
ceases Second, there are the long-view prob
lens which cannot be solved hastily without
wrecking our hopes of lasting peace.
We are convinced that the key to lasting
peace lies in getting away from the Old World
practice of general peace conferences which
were the battle-ground of power politics. AS
substitute, we propose Transition Period
from war to peace during which the long-view
problems can be adequately solved This plan
of Transition Period has been referred to as
"Cooling-of Period" This is misnomer.
Its purpose is far greater than this incidental
benefit. A world sick from war must be nursed
back to health. 1t cannot be cured with power

must be no general peace conference making
hasty settlements like that of Versailles.
The world has never yet made a lasting
peace. Signing document with fanfares of
humpets, banquets and conferring of decora-
tions certainly has not made peace yet.
Less Talk!
Nor can peace be made by oratory nebular
resolutions or phantasies 1t is hard, practical
job in which each nation will contend for its
aims and interests. This is not to discount the
high importance of ideals. They are the lights
that must guide US. But we must walk toward
these lights with our feet on the ground.
Surely we need new approach "a new
method of making peace.
In the land of realism there are two sepa-
Evening star., 1943-11-07

= 4 YE HAVE received hundreds of letters
w from officers and men in the armed
w services commenting on things we
have said and written upon the making of the
peace Several thoughts run through these
letters.
The millions of men in our armed
forces are discussing the kind of peace
we must make. They insist that the final
purpose of this war is not this time to
ssmake the world safe for democracy"
but to produce a lasting peace no matter
what the ideologies of the world may be.
They fear the interests of America are not
being kept in mind
They do not want some sudden peace agree
ment pulled out of hat before they can re-
turn home and have voice in the discussion.
They resent the idea that this job may be
done - and badly done - while they are
away and without their being given chance
to have a say in the settlements.
1t would be mockery if in their absence
we commit them for all time to some regime
which their vivid experience abroad has
shown them to be wrong.
This right of the men who fight and sacrl-

politics. 1t is true this is new idea 1t has
never been done. But faced with the fact that
the world has never yet made lasting peace
it is surely time to try something new.
The First Steps
0UT to have Transition Period two things
must first be done: We must agree now on
responsible leadership for the Transition
Period as assurance against collapse into
chaos And we must agree now on the mme-
date action that will have to be taken on
certain urgent things when war ends 50 that
the sick world can start convalesclng.
The enemy countries must be disarmed.
Order must be established. People must have
food, or anarchy will run rampant The guilty
men must be punished. Governments must
be restored in occupied countries, and started
functioning in enemy countries The huge
Allied armies must be demobilized as
soon as the threat of enemy armament
is removed. Production and world trade
must be started again SO that people can
support themselves.
The long delay in acting upon these urgent
economic questions in 1919 greatly deoni-
tated the world. BY doing these urgent things
Immediately we will gain time to tackle the
