A Great Decision

port to the Nation on the Crimean
Conference, it is important to real
ize that what he had to say was as
much the summation as the opening
statement of the case for full Amer
lean participation in the task of
reorganizing war shattered world.
To be sure, the statement added
little to the sum of our knowledge
of the agreements entered into at
Yalta. Although the President spoke
of it as personal report" to the
Congress and to the people of the
country, he added nothing of con-
sequence to the Yalta communique
of February IL. In all probability
this was by purposeful design, for
while it is true that details will have
to be added, and while there may
be much debate about them, we
cannot escape the fact that, for all
practical purposes, the die is cast.
AS a Nation, we very probably shall
have to make our great decision"
on the basis of a fait accompli, for
there is but little chance that the
essential agreements of Yalta can
be changed in any significant re-
Spect. When they come before the
Senate in treaty form, the choice
will lie between accepting them
essentially as they are or rejecting
them outright.
1t was with this in mind, no
doubt, that the President hurried
over the factual aspects of his re
port. What he wanted to put before
his audience was not a recital of
his discussions with Prime Minister
Churchill and Marshal Stain, but
rather the thought that "reSponsi-
bility for political conditions thou
sands of miles overseas can no
longer be avoided by this great
Nation"
Mr.. Roosevelt stated that as
settled conviction on his part. 1t
was by all odds the principal theme
of his message, the proposition upon
which American adherence to any
effective system of world organiza-
ton must stand or fall.
1t is in this light that we should
receive the Presidents assertion
that the Crimean Conference was
"a turning point" in American his
tory, and that there will soon be
presented to the Senate and to the
American people a great decision
which will determine the fate of
the United States-and of the world
for generations to come.
Of this decision, the President
declared There can be no middle
ground here. We shall have to take
the responsibility for world collab-
grafton, or we shall have to bear the
responsibility for another world
conflict" - -'-e's~~~
There will be few to deny that
this is true. We have a great deci-
sion to make, an enormous respon-
sibility to assume. And while it is
unthinkable that we should seek to
evade either the decision or the
responsibility which it will entail,
this much might well be added to
what the President said: The main
tenance of peace is not exclusively
our responsibility. Our share in the
task must be a large one, but not
larger than that of Russia or of
Britain. While stresSing our own
responsibility, we should not neglect
theirs, for the peace of the world
is hardly less dependent on their
intentions than on ours.
