Stettinius-ChurchiII
Farley Reported on
Commission Powers
BY PERTINAX.

1t is learned on good authority
that in the conversations Under
secretary of State Edward r. Stet-
tinius. jr., had with Prime Minis
ter Churchill and Anthony Eden
the status and activities of the Ad-
visory Commission on European AZ
fairs were reviewed at length.
The forecast is made that the
commission will be given greater
scope and possibly some power of
initiative. Until now the three gov
ernments concerned, the United
States, Great Britain and Russia.
have kept it at work on the draft
of the German armistice, and al
though most problems related to
that armistice have been thoroughly
threshed out, there are definite indi-
cations that nothing has been put in
final shape.
Concerted Action Unlikely.
Yet no concerted action of the
great Allies, in their dealings with
Germany, can be expected to mature
until joint instructions have been
forwarded to the commanders in
chief on the western and eastern
fronts and, obviously, full under
standing about the armistice is a
prerequisite which cannot be dis
penSed with.
AS tentatively outlined by the
European Commission, the contem-
plated terms of the German armi-
stice have been made known to the
four Prime Ministers of the British
Dominions who. during their stay
in London, regularly sit In the war
cabinet.
But what about the other states
directly interested in German af-
fairs: France. Belgium, Holland,
Norway. Czechoslovakia and Po-
land? Will they become acquainted
with the recommendation Of the
European Commission by being in
vited to share in its proceedings,
or will they merely be informed
| through diplomatic channels?
Russia Stands Fast.
Notwithstanding what has passed
between Mr.. Stettinius and his Brit
iSh hosts, it is difficult to see how
the aforementioned states could be
asked to send temporary represent
atives to the commission with the
problem of RuSsian-Polish relations
still n suspense.
Now, more than ever, the Russian
government abides by its decision
reached on April 26, 1943) to avoid
all diplomatic intercourse with the
Polish government in London. 1t is
unlikely to retrace its steps for the
sake of giving the European Com
mission a better chance to prove its
usefulness.
In the past the negative attitude
taken by the United States Govern
ment toward the French Committee
of National Liberation in Algiers
placed another obstacle in the way
OF the European Commission. In
the natural course of things the So
called governments-in-e Exile ought to
! have been heard by the commission
