mark a radical change in what
has been the British line of con-
duct in Germany.
The policy Mr.. Bevin inherited
and continued has not only been in

views of the Labor party. 1t has
been at variance with the real IN
terests of the British Dominlons.
Fundamentally their i"+e 9
much like our own. The Domin'
ions desire peace; they W-a-4 20
compose the conflicts Of empires
and not to be entangled in them.
It is a reasonable surmise in
view Of what Field Marshal SHUTS
said about Britain being the medi-
ator, that there must be a strong
current of opinion in the Domin-
ions which holds that no good can
come of the Churchill thesis of an
Anglo-American front throughout
the world against the Soviet Union.
Certainly what Field Marshal
SHUTS said is the very opposite
of what Mr.. Churchill who spoke
the mind of those who have been
directing British policy, proposed.
So I think it is a reasonable
guess-putting two and two to-
gether-that British policy is going
to develop differently than Mr..
Byrnes assumed it would when he
changed his own policy.
If I am right, then MI. Byrnes
is going to find that he is carrying
on a policy which the British, who
persuaded him to adopt it, are
themselves turning away from.
