TODAY and TOMORROW
By WALTER LIPPMANN
The Allied Govern ment Of Germany

While it may be argued that the
formula of unconditional surrender
was not the most expedlent slogan
for war propaganda, the event is
very likely to show that it was the
most accurate and honest brief de-
scription of what must necessarily
happen to the Germans when they
are defeated. For any formula to
let Germany surrender not uncon-
ditionally but on negotiated a d
agreed conditions, assumes til e
existence Immediately after Hitler
of a German national government
with which we could negotiate,
which could make a contract with
us.
1t is now clear that no such Ger
man government can exist inlme-
diately after the German defeat.
For the NaZi regime is totalitarian:
that means that every organ of de-
cision, that every post of command,
both military and civil, and not
only in government but in corporate
industry, in the trade unions, in
the press, and in the schools, is
manned by NaZis or by men whom
they have appointed and controlled.
The arrest or dismissal of these
Nazis must paralyze or destroy
the German national state as a 60
ing concern. 1t is the very essence
of Nazism, and for the Germans
one of its most serious practical
consequences, that there is no such
thing as an opposition party which
is ready to take over the business
of governing Germany. For this fun.
damental reason the burden Of gov
erning Germany falls necessarily
upon the Allies. While the Allied
government of Germany is subject
to law and morals, it will be for
the time being sovereign il Ger
many, and there will be no Ger
mans who have legal title to ex-
ercise German sovereignty, or have
even a de facto authority.
While the Allied Military Gov
eminent of Germany is the un-
avoidable consequence of the Hit
lerian regime, we are bound to re-
gard it as a temporary and transi-
tional phase. Any plan for the oc-
cupation and government of Ger.
many must have as its objective
the self government of Germany.
The question then is how in prin-
ciple the transition is to be made
from Allied government to German
government. =
That transition may have to be
made soon or it may be made later
But sooner or later, it will have to
be made. And the more clearly WE
can see now how we are going to
get out of Germany, the more sue.
cessfully we shall govern Germany
while we have to remain there.
There are in principle two radi-
cally different ways which the AL.
lies can take. The one is recog-
nize when Germany has been dis.
armed and officially de- Nazified
a provisional government, to deal

ment of Germany to create condi-
tons under which they can end
their occupation within a reason
ably short time, and to do this by
planting the seeds of democracy.
There should be no misunder-
standing, however, brought about
by confusing the occupation of Ger
many with the control of German
policy. The occupation should, if
we can make it so, be effective but
short; the control, which keeps Ger
man military power from recovery
after we withdraw the occupying
troops, will necessarily have to be
very much longer-how much long
er no one can now conceivably
know. -,.

of the War Production Board told
the Southern Combed Yarn Spin
ners association yesterday that
contract examinations are not of
immediate concern . to the indus

will be no long delays in the settle

would continue to increase re-
