Vansittart has gone on record in
the House of Lords as favoring the
bequest Of East Prussia to Poland
This war;" he told the House. was
Matched in East Prussia, home of
the Junker war lords and hotbed of
mllltaristic reaction where the first
illegal Germany Army was founded
after the last war" At the same
time he has made clear that he does
not consider the German Left much
better than the Junkers and the

Eden Blames People.
Anthony Eden, Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs, it is important
to note, also has placed the burden
of guilt for militarism on the Ger
man people as a whole, rather than
on the Nazis.
In the long history of aggres-
sion which became avowedly the ma
tional industry, first of the Prus-
slams and then of the Germans" !"
Eden said in a speech last July 90,
that people tthe German Herren-
volk) has always found its war lords.
under whatever title they chose, to
lead the German hordes willingly,
and with the full approval of the
nation at home, on a path that spelt
doom and destruction for their
neighbors.
Hopes of glory, promises of
Lebensraum, any other pretense-
those have been easily propounded
and eagerly believed by the German
people. Hitler is simply symbol
of this lust for power, and when the
symbol goes the spirit which created
it has still to be finally removed.
This time We must be sure that it
will be utterly crushed and power
less to rise again"
Indicative of the support that
has gathered behind the "hard
peace" advocates, the semiofficial
postwar policy group, comprising
about 40 Conservative members of
both houses of Parliament, several
weeks ago issued a memorandum
proposing the break up and redis-
tribution" of Prussia, leader and
instigator of aggression in Ger
many"
Would Split Germany.
They proposed that the Rhine
land, Westphalia, Hesse, Hanover,
Schleswig- Holstein and the old
Hansa Towns territories be liber-
ated from Prussian rule and estab-
lished as autonomous states. Ba-
tavia, Wuerttemburg, Saxony and
Baden also would be given the
status of independent states. Repar-
ations, it urged, should be integrated
with the problem of removing Ger
many's war potential, by transfer to
the United Nations of the Reich's
raw materials, industrial equipment
and mines.
Laski, on the other hand, has
criticized such dismemberment
plans as an attempted "Balkaniza-
ton of Germany that would lead to
new frictions and a revived cent?
petal movement. Vansittart and his
followers are trying to deal with
symptoms rather than causes, in
Laski's opinion. and the real Ger
man problem is essentially one of
affecting q wholesale shift in the
distribution Of class power in Ger
many.

A Catholic writer undoubtedly
will want to answer this provocative
treatise on Protestant missionary
work in Latin America.
Mr.. Howard maintains Protestant
attempts to propagate their faith in
Latin American countries have been
opposed by the Catholic Church on
four counts. These are "that Latin
America is soundly Catholic; that
the activities of Protestants there
are work of pure destruction; !;
that the presence of missionaries is
an obstacle to the good neighbor
policy, and that they (American
Protestant missionaries) are the
strongest reason why South Ameri-
cans do not like us.
Mr.. Howard presents the Protest.
ant view in discussion of each of
these points. He quotes copiously
from Catholic leaders, religious and
lay, he had spoken to in South
America in defense of his thesis
that these arguments do not in fact
have substance. Declaring there
is a vast difference between the
Latin American Catholic Church
and the Roman Catholicism of
Northern Europe or North America" !"
Mr. Howard asserts the Official at
titude of the church regarding the
rights of minorities" has been
summed up by French Catholic
writer when We are in minority,
we ask for religious liberty in the
name of your ProtestanD princi-
Piles. When we are in a majority,
we refuse it in the name of ours"
He also states the State Depart
ment has followed policy of favor
ing Catholic appointments to South
America and of hindering Protestant
who want to travel
there.
The book is written in a lively
style. with occasional anecdotes to
tighten the controversial nature of
the material. It's chief defect, from
a reader point of view, is the tend
ency to too numerous quotations in
some of the later chapters. They
tend to become series of state
ments strung together rather than
well-developed studies.

Sea Duty and Other

The author. an accomplished
craftsman of the short story, has
captured the spirit Of our naval
service in this collection OF l3
stories. previously published in a
number of magazines. In virtually
every one, there is brought home
the great devotion individual skip
pers and their men have to the fleet
as whole, even to making the su-
preme sacrifice. The author has
been at sea with units of the Pa
cific Fleet since early in the war
and writes of details that should
meet the approval of any authority
on naval tactics and customs.
One yarn, "Fisherman's Luck"
has all the earmarks of pure fic-

Connery Row
By Mary-Ca arter Roberts.

By John Steinbeck. Viking
Press; s2)
The thing about John Steinbeek
Is that he is a master of his art. He
will be sentimental, he will lay on
his pathos and his sweetness and
light with lush hand, he will aim
at an effect as openly as an archer
aiming at target. But he always
hits. Keeping your critical faculties
alive as you read him only confirms
his accuracy.
Now" you say, "he is going to
wiring a few heartstrings, now he is
setting out to show us the gritty
side" But still your particular
heartstrings will feel the twist and
the grit will shock you. 1t is mat
ter of knowing how to write. Few
practitioners know it better.
Grant him his field, then, and
you have to admit him a master.
The match is that there may be a
doubt as to whether his field has
any actual existence in the world or
not. For it is not merely the field
of humble lives lived outside the re-
spectacle precincts of society. 1t is
also the field of those lives f1agrantly
idealized.
His present book deals with the
inhabitants of seedy section of the
town of Monterey-bums, prostitutes
and outcasts generally-and Mr.
Steinbeck makes it no secret that he
holds these people to be the choice
members of the human species.
They are the good citizens, the gen.
erous, the pure minded, the wise.
1t is class literature in the FASH
ionable reverse from former stand
ards, piquant, by reason of contrast
and compelling by reason OF the
master hand, but still class litera-
ture. 1t preempts the virtues for one
social group and the vices for others.
You have to decide for yourself II
life actually is as simple as all that.
The book is neither novel nor a
collection of stories. 1t is loosely
connected account of the crises in
the lives of it's people, the outcasts
aforesaid. The one character who
stands above the outcast level,
serves as a binder-up of the scat
tered threads. This is lonely sci
enlist who collects biological speci-
mems for a living and drinks beer,
thinks sad thoughts about mans in
humanity to man and plays Gregor-
ian chants on his phonograph for
his avocation. known to his neigh
bors as Doc, he plays the part of a
mother to the street-binds up
wounds, gives good advice which he
knows will not be taken and dis
penses forgiveness. He is consist
emily mulcted and adored by the
intending but weakly doing
grown-up children who surround
him, and expects no better from
them.
In sum, Mr.. Steinbeck tells us
that those who succeed materially do
so beeause they have mean quail
ties for such success while those who
fail. fail only from being too good to
succeed. They may steal, get drunk,
fight and engage in unconventional
moral practices, but in them such
conduct is beautiful because they
are fundamentally good. In the sue
cessful, on the other hand, ire
proachable behaviour is ugly, since
the successful are fundamentally all
bad. This seems somewhat like the
doctrine of predestination, but there
are few people who will be troubled
by the seeming The view is popular.
In literature, at least, it is as ortho-
dox as predestination was in its par
ticular period.
