contained in that declaration" the
note declared.
Intention to Withdraw
The U. S. understood from this
statement that it was the intention
of Russia to withdraw all its troops
not later than March 2, six months
after the date of the japanese sur
render last September 2, the note
said.
so far as the government OF the
United States is aware, this COM
mitment was not questioned at the
recent meeting of the security
council in London which agreed
that the Soviet Union and Iran
should seek a solution of their diff
ferences by direct negotiation" il
continued.
The note said it was. generally
accepted" during the UNO security
council sessions in London that re-
tentlon OF troops by one member
OF the United Nations on the terri.
tory OF another, without consent,
was mot in accordance with the
principles of the United Nations"
Contingent On Issues
1t added that Security council
members generally had accepted
the belief that withdrawal of such
troops SHOULD not be made con
tlngent upon other issues"
In expressing the hope of a
speedy withdrawal of Soviet troops,
the U. S. note said it was acting
in the spirit Of the friendly asso-
citation which developed between
the U. S. and the Soviet Union in
the successful effort against the
common enemy and as a fellow
m ember of the United Nations"
It said the U. S. trusts that
the Soviet government, no less
than this government, appreciated
the heavy responsibility resting
upon the great powers under the
charter to observe their obligations
and to respect sovereign rights Of
other states" -
The government of the United
States requests that it be promptly
advised Of the decision OF the gov
eminent of the Soviet Union which
it hopes will be in accord with the
views herein expressed" the note

The note was delivered at the

in Moscow, on instruction of Secre-
tary of State Byrnes.
Byrnes also ordered KEENAN, to
deliver note regarding Red Army

department officials declined to
make public the text Of that docu-

because they said they had not yet

The speech itself will, however,
be received in this country as an
incomplete statement, in that Mr..
Churchill did not examine the prob
lem, as Americans are compelled
to see it, of forming a united Brit
sh-American front. That is an
enormous problem, and it is not
solved by dwelling exclusively on
the Russian expansion. Mr..
Churchill has in fact stated only
the reasons why such a comblna-
ton would effectively reinforce the
British position. But he has not
examined the problem. of American
participation in the combination ne
advocates, and indeed he avoided
examining it. -
The essence Of the problem is in
the obscure and complex relation
between the British common
wealth and the British Empire. A
close reading of Mr.. Churchill's
speech will show that he did not
face this problem, and that he has
assumed that Americans will
somehow fail to face it. - :
Thus he points to our "perma-
nent defense agreement with the
Dominion of Canada" and propos-
es that the principle be extend
ed to all the British common
wealths with full reciprocity" "
There would be no difficulty about
that: the United States could make
permanent defense agreements
with Australia, New Zealand, South
Africa and Fire. e.
But that IS not what Mr.. Church
i'll really had in mind in his speech.
He wants the same principle ex-
tended to the United Kingdom ano
to the dependent empire which il
governs. Now the general prin.
ciple of the Canadian agreement
could be extended to the defense
of the British Isles. The rea,
problem, however, for America,
and as regards British and Ameri.
can relations with Russia, is moi
concerned with the defense of the
English-speaking commonwealth.
1t is not concerned with those
The Wilmington morning star., 1946-03-08

British nations with whom we have
"the joint inheritance -. of
Magma Carta, the Bill of Rights,
the habeas corpus, trial by jury
and the English common law"
The real problem is concerned
with those countries, either under
British rule or within the British
sphere of influence, which are not
English-speaking countries and do
not have this joint inheritance OF
freedom. That is where the trou-
BILE and the danger are, and that
is where the conflict with Russia
is in considerable part, though not
exclusively located.
1t may be that the Soviets will
become SO aggressive that the
American feeling about the en-
pire will become a negligible con.
sideration. But if we are still at
tempting to make a peace, and are
not merely preparing for war,
then these considerations cannot be
neglected if there is to be con-
structive development OF Anglo
American relations.
As long as we are still trying to
make peace, a united front in the
empire would not only be unat'
tractive to most Americans but
would be regarded by many
thoughtful Americans as an unwise
and ineffective policy. For unit
ed front in that part of the world
could not be the kind Of equal
partnership that exists in our rela.
lions with Canada. In the region
from, say, Malta to Hongkong, the
united front would be directed by
Britain. No amount of consulta
ton could overcome the fact that
the initiative and the administra
ton would be British, and that only
the responsibility in case Of trouble
would be joint. ~
That is not a workable arrange.
ment to propose to a people Sc

ton that empire is at best a neces.
sary evil, to be liquidated as soon
as possible.
But the difficulty is not only in
persuading Americans to accept
such an arrangement. There is a
further difficulty, so it will seem
to many in this country and par.
ticularly to those who have proved
their friendship for Britain. 1t is
