This Changing World
By Constantine ByosCn

President Roosevelt is expected to be-
gin preparations for another trip abroad
soon.
The new voyage across the Atlantic,
which Is expected to include visit to
Paris and to be concluded by q meeting
with Premier Stain and Prime Minister
Churchill. is regarded as an even more
important one than the trip to Teheran
last year. 1t will be the last gathering
Of the Big Three before final victory in
Europe and is intended to put the final
touches to plans for the new map of
Europe.
This new conference was envisaged at
the last meeting at Quebec when, ac-
cording to reliable reports. Mr.. Roose-
welt indicated his willingness to pro-
ceed across the Atlantic at once and
return to the United States In time 10
handle the last phases OF the campaign.
Premier Stain, however. was too busy
with the important military operations
In the Balkans and in the Baltic States
to give much thought to political con-
ference.
Now that the military operations on
both fronts have developed successfully
he is ready to discuss with his Allies
the many political matters which will
contribute to the reshaping of the map
OF Europe. The place of the meeting
has not yet been decided, but it is as
sumed that 1t will be somewhere in the
USSR. 1t is short trip from either
Paris or Rome, where Mr.. Roosevelt
may 60 after he has responded to Gen
de Gaulle's invitation.
The assumption that the three United
Nations leaders will meet on Russian
soil Is based on Stalins reluctance to
travel outside his own territory He
made large concession when he agreed
TO meet his associates at Teheran. At
that time there was no other possible
meeting place. since flying over Russian
territory in 1943 was still hazardous
Today fight from Italy to any part
Of Southern Russia is safe.
At Teheran only tentative and gen.
eral map of new Europe was outlined.
The military picture for the Red
armies had vastly improved, but it was
still too early to decide with any de-
gree Of finality what would happen in
the various areas still strongly held by
the Nazis. Now, although there is
possibility that the Germans will be able

change there is hope at which the
desperate will snatch
From the point of view of the peoples
OF the United Nations as a whole, there
fore, the reelection of Mr.. Roosevelt
was so much net gain for their hopes
OF just and lasting peace
Also on November 7, 1914. there was
published in the newspapers of the
world Premier Stalin's speech of the
previous day, in which he gave re-
peated praise to the labors of the Dunn
barton Oaks conference.
But there were also the warnings
and the portents.
SOn November 7, 1914, a joint state
ment Of the War; and Navy Depart
fnents told the American people that
robot bomb attacks against the CONT
mental United States are already
entirely possible" Though the state
ment said that at present such at
tacks would not have great military
significance. the implication was clear:
II we ever allow the next war to occur.
1t Is likely to begin with attacks of
this nature, and they may well be on
an overwhelming scale and they will
certainly seek to achieve complete sur
prise
Next time we will not be out of range.
Inc only security we shall now have
against the ravages of wars most
terrible weapons will be to prevent war
from occurring at all-and that can
pc done only by joining with others
to organize the world community to
restrain its criminal elements.
This warning was immediately fol-
lowed, on November 8. by claim Of
the German DNB agency that greater
London has for some weeks been sub
jected to attack by the va, described
as "far more effective" weapon than
the robot bomb (V-1). Whatever the
truth OF this enemy claim may be, it
10 clear that 1t Is an added warning,
portent for the future which we cannot
ignore
We have our chance, we and our
Allies, to lay the foundation for peace
ful world. world In which peace shall
be organized by common action, and
maintained by that eternal vigilance
without which neither peace nor liberty
can ever be assured. And We have clear
and unmistakAble warning Of what the
dread consequences win be II We fail
70 make the best use Of the opportunity
which Is now open to US.
II seems impossible to believe that
intelligent human beings, thus favored
anQ thus forewarned, can fail to seize
that opportunity In this golden hour
when II y ours for the taking.

Not Immune

Al al unusual JOlnL SGaCement the
War and Navy Departments have
just seen fit to declare that the con-
tinental United States may yet be
struck by flying or robot" bombs.
1t is authoritatively explained that
this statement has been made not
because OF any special information
suggesting that the danger is inn
minent, but because the press-in
view OF continuing attacks on the
London area-has raised the ques-
tion whether the weapon might not
be launched against cities like New
York and Washington. The answer
is that such attacks are entirely
possible" and that even though they
could have no great military ef-
fectiveness," Hitler may well resort
to them, before he finally goes down,
in order to satisfy his own vengeful-
ness and to give psychological
shot in -the-arm to the German
people.
Our Allied sea and air patrols
are by no means sure guarantees
against a threat of this sort. The.
enemy, by using submarines or cata-
pult plane tenders or some novel
aerial device, could conceivably
make occasional inroads against
our defenSes and let loose flying
bombs upon our Atlantic Coast. The
mere fact that our armies are now
fighting on German soil does not
make us immune, for actually it is
at least possible that our cities may
be hit sporadically by something
even worse than this eerie killer.
Thus. within hours after our War
and Navy Departments had issued
their joint statement. the Nazi high
command claimed that for some
weeks past new secret weapon
Wz2"-has been bombarding Lon
don. >This report has been neither
confirmed nor denied by the British,
but there is some reason to believe
that there may be substantial
measure of truth in it.
The Germans have been assert
ing for months that the flying bomb
-"V-1"-would one day be succeed
ed by something much more terrible,
and there has been welter of ru-
mors-some of them sounding most
plausible-of fantastic strato-
spheric rocket which recent Stock
holm dispatch to the London Daily
Mail described as a tremendous ex-
plosive projectile capable of travel
ing 300 to 1000 miles an hour. II
1t really exists and if it can be con-
trolled with reasonable accuracy,
such an instrument must make the
flying bomb seem mild by COM
parison, and If it can be used against
London, it can be used against other
places as well, not excepting the
United States. Accordingly, the
possibility foreseen by the War and
Navy Departments, though it does
not justify alarm, cannot be taken
too lightly. In an immediate sense,
1t serves as timely reminder that
the Nazis are still dangerous; and
from the standpoint of the future,
with all the technical advances that
can be made through the years, it is
grim warning to nations every
where that they can no longer find
safety in isolation but only in a
collective security system that will
establish an enduring peace.

Complains About Bondage"
TO the Editor of The Star
The beautiful New Deal dream Of four
freedoms, with China as one Of the
chief cornerstones Of the Utopian struc-
ture, has dissolved overnight. Eventually
we may realize that Asia is not interested
In either the New Deal or British
Imperialism. The same may be said
OF Russia. We should seek to promote
friendly relations with foreign powers,
while avoiding entangling alliances Is
George Washington said Attempting to
settle the affairs OF the. globe, while

we are in bondage to scheming political
bosses 1t home, will not impress thinking

Army : Navy Memo
On Absentee Voting

Following the conclusion of con-
ferences instituted by the Council
of State Governments at the re-
quest of Governor Herbert R.
O'Conor, a memorandum on the
basic problems of absentee and
soldier and sailor voting was an
nounced today by Governor
O'Conor.
The conferences were held last
week by representatives of the
Congress, Of the Council of State
Governments, and military and
naval authorities. At the same
time, Governor O'Conor made
known that he had been informed
that legislation embodying the
basic principles of the Army Navy
memorandum would be introduced
in Congress when it reconvenes on
January 10 and that it is expected
that final action will have been
taken by February /.
This will afford plenty of time,
Governor O'Conor declared, for
State Legislatures to pass neces-
sary acts to confirm to the overall
absentee voting requirements.
Governor O'Conor, as former
president of the Council of State
Governments and as member of
the executive committee of the
Governors Conference, had insist
ed that, while Maryland and all
the States were determined to do
everything needed 10 enable all
service men to cast their votes. Con-
gress must enact the necessary
basic legislation before the States
could bring their absentee voting
systems into line. He had advised
the States to defer any action until
"a workable basis for procedure"
had been assured through Congress
sional action.
