Outlines Work Ahead

The first task is primarily the responsibility
of the victors. 1t will require continued close
collaboration among the four great powers, the
United States, Great Britain Russia and China.
France, too must have voice as well as
other countries whose territory has been con-
quered by the Nazis, but whose heroic people
have shared in the winning of the victory.
Germany and Japan must not only be
utterly defeated but also completely disarmed.
AS have already suggested, it may be neces-
sary to forbid Germany any aviation industry
of her own and the entire Ruhr which is the
heart of Germanys heavy industry, should be
internationazed.
Beyond that, the war criminals, both high
and low, must be brought to justice. The
people Of Germany and Japan must be taught
once and for all, that war does not pay.
But cannot repeat too emphatically, that
the second major task the building of a world
organization for peace, should not wait upon
final victory. 1t should 60 forward as rapidly
as possible to immediate solution.

Gen. de GauIIe Snubbed

Mr. Roosevelt's persistent refusal to grant
recognition to the De Gaulle government of
France is contributing to the increasing chaos
behind our lines at critical period of the war.
France is Germany's principal neighbor and
knows most about German aggression.
The glorious resistance the French people
made during four tortured years entities them
to more generous treatment. We need France
in our councils and we need her now.
One more illustration Look at Romania.
On Sept. II, 1914, an agreement was made
restoring peaceful relations. This was no mere
military armstice. That agreement fixed the
future frontiers of Romania 1t disposed of
Bessarabia and Pennsylvania, two of the worst
trouble spots of Europe. 1t dealt with eco
nomic matters.
Now, who negotiated and signed that agree
ment? 1t was signed "by the authority of the
government of the USRR, the United Kingdom
and the United States by Menosky." That
treaty was signed by representative of Soviet
Russia acting in behalf of the United States.

Must Drop Reservations

We must make certain that our participa-
ton in this world organization is not subjected
to reservations that would nuify the power
of that organization to maintain peace and to
halt future aggression. The surest way TO
invite disaster is to insist that everything must
be perfect from the start.
Whatever the difficulties, we must not be
diverted from our goal by the rreconcilabes
of either camp. We have before us vvidly the
grim reminder of the robot bomb which shows
no nation anywhere can be safe against
aggression.
No single nation can make itself impreg-
nable to attack. We can no longer rely solely
upon our own defenses or upon our own love
of peace. We can and we must have world
organization to prevent future wars.
We must have two unities on which to build
One is the unity of the United Nations. The
other is unity of the American people.
We are working successfully now With
13O,OOOOOO of our own people to satisfy and
with almost go other nations to come to agree
ment-I am sure none of us will get exactly
what he wants

World Council Necessary

The main outlines of that organization have
already become clear. II must include gen.
eral assembly comprising all the peace loving
nations of the world and council small enough
for almost continuous meeting and prompt
action
This world organization must be enabled.
through the use of force where necessary, to
prevent or repel military aggression. II must
be supplemented by world court to deal with
international disputes
These, in essence, were almost the recon-
mendations since drawn up by the conferences
at Dumbarton Oaks. At those conferences we
have made a good start

Is % Fix i'm the Making?

WHY is Sidney Hillman's Political
w Action Committee touting the
fourth term candidacy with such en-
thusiasm?
The official viewpoint of the
Political Action Committee is that it
is an educational agency. But this
seems little too self-righteous and
disinterested.
So cautious, responsible and OBJ
jective a journalist as David Law
renee offers a different explanation.
In praising Gov. Dewey's Seattle
speech on labor, Mr.. Lawrence de-
clares:
"When Mr.. Dewey said that
labor has been made the football of
politics, he Was telling the absolute
truth. The reason tOhy Sidney Hill
man and the Clio Political Action
Committee are working so aggres-
siUely for the reelection of Mr..
Roosevelt is their belief that such
groups uiu haUe the inside track at
the White House and the next od-
n,inistration if Mr.. Roosevelt is con-
tinued in office for fourth term"
Such an attempt to buy favorit-
ism is not without precedent. In
1886 before the federal laws were
strengthened, John L. Lewis union
made campaign contribution of
100000 to the New Deal candidate.
Later during the automobile strike,
when the White House was giving

Cites Diplomatic Triumphs

Actually from the earliest days of our
nation, when Benjamin Franklin induced the
king of France to enter the Revolutionary War
on our side, American history is packed with
diplomatic triumphs and international achieve
ments.
Time and again. even in the earliest days
of the republic, the United States welded
moral force far in excess of its military power.
In more recent years, our history is studded
with a series of brilliant measures taken by
able American secretaries of state, to broaden
the basis of international collaboration.
On any roll call of these great American
secretaries of state, there would stand out the
names of Blaine and Hay and Root, of Hughes,
Kellogg and Stimson. Their names are linked
to such achievements as the Good Neighbor
Policy, the Open Door for China, the Hague
Peace Conference the Disarmament Conference
by which the Japanese navy was limited to an
inferior status the Pact of Paris to outlaw war,
the World Court, the policy of non-recognition
of the fruits of aggression, and many measures
to broaden the basis of international CO.
operation.

Small Nations to Share

The important point is that beginning has
been made. Let us remember that achieve
ment can only be reached through agreement
agreement between the Executive and Con-
gress-agreement among our people-agree-
ment not merely among the three most
powerful nations, but among some sixty nations
which must join in this endeavor for it to
succeed. 1t is imperative that the small ma
tons of the world be brought into full partner
ship in this work now and not later.
The treatment of small nations is the test
Of the conscience Of civilization. They should
have a full share in these labors from the start.
There are two great disasters which could
occur to us. The first would be if few indi-
vdual rulers should in secret conferences try
to shape the future peace of the world The
second would be for any nation involved to
break up into quarreng groups over individual
proposals.

Airpower Reduces Earth

Even before this war, the airplane had re-
duced the size of the earth. The robot bomb
has made this world of ours still smaller. IT
has put us under the guns of any aggressor
nation that may rise to power anywhere in the
world.
If there should even be third world war,
America would be in the front lines in the very
first hour. That is not an argument. 1t is fact
Every American must learn the unacceptable
conclusion We must never forget it. We must
never again run the risk of permitting war to
break loose in the world Together with all
freedom-loving people, we have had narrow
escape. We dare not take another chance. This
war must be the last war.
To this end, the United States must take
the lead in establishing a world organization to
prevent future wars. | am more than a little
tired of the defeatist attitude which some
people take toward our participation in world
affaips

Polish Farley Failure

In many directions today our foreign policy
gives cause for deep anxiety.
The case of Poland is one example. Poland
was the first nation to resist the oppression of
Hitler. The restoration of Free Poland is the
outstanding symbol Of what we are fighting
for. Admittedly Poland has differences with
Russia that go deep in history and for which
there is no simple solution. Yet Mr.. Roosevelt
undertook to handle this matter personally and
secretly with Mr. Stain. At their only meeting
neither our secretary of state nor the under
secretary was present Instead Mr.. Roosevelt
took along Mr.. Harry Hopkins who acquired
his training in foreign affairs in running the
WPA. But, because of the secret nature Of the
meeting, American public opinion has been
silenced by the fear that some delicate negotia-
ton might be embarrassed
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-10-19

63 days of gallant and unequal struggle, they
were overwhelmed by the Nazs.
In all this we Americans would have
clearer conscience if the voice of our people
had not been stifed.
Now look to Italy. Some Is months have
passed since Italy's surrender We have sent
over batch of alphabetical agencies They
brought with them invasion currency bearing
the legend freedom from want. freedom from
fear" What mockery that must seem to the
Italian people. Here is the comment of the vice
president of the International Ladies Garment
Workers Union, who has just returned from
Italy He reports mass unemployment, hunger,
despair, degradation delinquency and painful
disappointment :. because the Allies have
not helped the Italian people to help them
selves. He quotes the solemn warning of the
Pope as follows:
THE great democracies must show greater
interest and concern for Italy If she Is not to
plunge from one dictatorship into another"

NEW YORK, oct. ~ (UP)-The tert OF
Cor Devey's Herald Tribune forum speech
fOlloCS:
1t is a great pleasure to participate in tins
annual exchange of opinion about urgent prob
lens of our time Certainly the most urgent
problem we face in the world is the prevention
of future wars.
We are agreed on one thing; We must not
have a third world war. That means we must
prevent a future war before it happens
If any doubts remained after Pearl Harbor,
thew have been ended by the last desperate act
of the Nazis in launching Hitler's blind weapon
of revenge, the robot bomb. This is futile
savagery. But it serves to warn us against the
future
Japanese planes launched from few air
craft carriers on Dec. 7, 1941, struck us de-
vastating blow at Pearl Harbor. If we fail to
make secure the peace of the world, the next
war will not begin by a surprise attack upon an
outlying base.
1t will begin when robot bombs launched
thousands of miles away suddenly rain death
and destruction on our major cities.

Foreign Policies Hidden

The day after it was signed the secretary
of the United States declined to comment on
the ground that the terms had not been
received from Moscow in time to study
These are just few examples of what hap
pens when president insists upon handling
foreign affairs on the basis of personal, secret
diplomacy. The result is today that no one
knows what our foreign policy is with respect
other countries of Europe, or for that matter
South America or China
We have no hint of what commitments may
have been made and American opinion is stifled
and ineffective. Yet despite these obstacles we
are fighting our way to victory and we shall
achieve American participation in world
organization to prevent future wars
We are going to succeed because in this
matter we have followed the American way
of doing things. The handling of this vital

Occup alton Plans Lag

Take now the case of Germany. Our expert
ence in Italy should have brought about timely
decisions on how to handle the invasion and
occupation of Germany. AS long ago as last
January, Gen. Eisenhower told us we would
have to deal with that problem this year
Yet, When the invasion of Germany began,
there was still no official plan. Careful plans
had, to be sure, been worked out by the two
departments primarily qualiied-the war and
the state departments But that kind of PLAN
ming goes for nothing when the President per-
sonally handles foreign policy.
There was conference involving this very
vital subject between the President and Mr..
Churchill at Quebec last month"; Did Mr.. Roose-
welt take the secretary of war or the secretary
of state to the conference? AS usual. he took
neither. Instead, he took with him, the secre-
tary of the treasury, whose qualifications as an
expert on military and international affairs are
still unknown.
The result was first class cabinet crisis
when it appeared that the work of the state
department and the war department was to be
scrapped in favor of brand new scheme pro-
duced by the treasury. In the end the treasury
plan was scrapped.

There are two distinct tasks.
