| |ALIENS:
ON the Job

The U. S. is hiring scores of aliens.
many of them in countries behind
the iron curtain, to staff it's N-mil-
ion-dollar international information
program.
Leland j. Barrows, deputy direc-
tor of the state department office
of information and education, told
the senate appropriations commit
tee that the department planned to
add 278 aliens and go Americans to
overseas duty by the end of the
1948 fiscal year.
WHAT WILL they do? Barrows
said that the aIens-14 of whom
will be added to the American en-
bassy in Moscow-would be used
primarily as translators, clerks,
messengers and in other work as
sociated with the U. S. foreign in
formation program.
Testimony before the committee
showed that the state department
gained the committees reluctant
approval of its foreign-hiring plan,
despite the objections of Chairman
Styles Bridges (R., N. H) who con-
tended that it would provide a fer
tile field for Communist infiltration
into government functions.
GEORGE v. ALLEN, assistant
secretary of state, countered that
there were certain jobs that had to
be performed overseas that could
best be done by aliens.
He said aliens could be employed
much cheaper for certain tasks
where they can be watched fairly
easily, even though Americans may
suspect their loyalty.
This departure from the norm
in the business of hiring federal en-
ployees was a new wrinkle in the
government that very probably will
be attracting considerable public
attention within the next few months.

CHURCHILL:
Grin, accents

At the British Conservative
party's annual convention in Liam
dudno, Wales, Winston Churchill,
never a mar to deal in f1imsy op-
timism when the going was tough,
talked in grim accents about the
worlds peril.
HE WAS the old pre-War, no.
appeasement Churchill as he warned
against letting any French breach
appear in the line of western re-
sistance to Soviet drives.
To the United States he said, in
effect: Keep those atomic bombs.
Destruction of the U. S. atomic ar
senal now would be tantamount to
suicide.
IF it were not for the stocks Of
atomic bombs now in the trustee
ship of the United States there
would be no means of stopping the
Subjugation of western Europe by
Communist Vaccinations backed
by Russian armies and enforced by
political parties.
"BOLSHEVIK Russia is already
heavily armed and her forces in
Europe far exceed those of all the
western countries put together. At
the present time the only sure foun-
dation of peace-and the prevention
Of actual war-rests upon strength.
He urged the West to bring mat
ters to head and make final set
tlement" before Russia produces a
usable bomb.
Such a settlement, according to
the views of the wartime British
prime minister, could be arrived at
only after the Russians had re-
leased their grip on satellite states,
released the German and Japanese
prisoners they now hold as
slaves" ceased to "oppress, tor
ment and exploit" those parts Of
Austria and Germany they hold and
called halt to disruptive opera
tions elsewhere in the world.
BUT CHURCHILL would not be a
party to issuing any false hopes Of
friendly settlement with Soviet
Russia" Actually, he said, the Ber-
lin blockade may precipitate war
at any time.

In march the guests of honor,

Marshall takes his place amid

gotiations.

BIC FOUR:
Come Again

While the u. S. state department
was exerting all its influence to pre-
vent return to direct negotiations
with Russia at this time, the Soviets
were hammering away at the op-
posite course of action by demand
ing that Big Four discussions of the
Berlin issue be resumed.
THE TWO viewpoints, starkly
emphasized by the reception Mr..
Truman's futile mission-to-M Moscow
idea received in the U. S., revealed
with extreme clarity the broad gap
now separating the East and West.
Russia's demand wasn't new. 1t
was repetition of Moscow's now
well-established tactics in East
West relations. What the Soviets
wanted was simply that the Berlin
question be removed from the
agenda of the U. N. security council
and that discussions among the, Big
Four be resumed where they were
severed last August in Moscow.
Andrei Y. Vishinsky, deputy
Soviet foreign minister, handed a
note to that effect to Juan A. Bra
muglia of Argentina, acting presi-
dent Of the security council, who
separately informed the u. S., Brit
tish and French delegations.
1T WAS all wasted effort as far
as the western powers were con-
cerned. Neither the u. S., Britain
nor France wanted to get within
shouting distance of direct negotia-
tions with the Russians at this point.
One western spokesman COM
mented simply, 1.-The Russian reply
is unhelpful." The Soviets, again,
were making no concession to
peace.

-ANYTHING NEW
What, No War?

Answers to the question. Does
Russia want war;" are a drug on
the market, in informed and unin-
formed circles alike, but now and
then someone comes up with a
reply that is a little more imagi-
native than most.
ONE OF this kind has been fur
nished by an experienced profess
sional diplomat-necessarily anony-
nous lest his identity become
know to the Russians-who is at
tending the U. N. meetings in Paris.
He said:
There will be no war soon. The
reason is that Stain, the head Of
the peace party, has just had
Andrei Zhdanov, the head of the
war party. murdered.
(Zhdanov, who died several weeks
ago, was one of the ranking men,
bers Of the politburo where he was
almost on a par with Molotov in
power and influence. He had been
talked of as a possible successor
to Stain. His demise was mourned
with parades, pageantry and os-
tentation by Stain, the boys in the
Kremlin and the Russian people.)
''HE (ZHDANOV) urged immedi-
ate war. He argued that if Russia
was defeated militarily she would
win politically, since the resulting
horror and chaos would cause a
new. irresistible wave of commu-
nism.
LAS long as Zhdanov was success
full, Stain gave him his head. When
he failed in Yugoslavia, Stain told
him to lay off. Zhdanov defiied the
Soviet generalissimo. So Stain got
his head.
This means that Stalin's waiting
tactics have prevailed. There will
be no war soon."

DIPLOMACY:
Trip Cancelled

To President Truman, for engi-
neering the abortive deal to send
Chief Justice Fred Vinson to Mos
COW for personal talks with Krem-
lin leaders on the atomic bomb.
went the credit for producing the
most heroically proportioned diplo-
matte faux pas of the year.
It happened very swiftly and very
simply. Mr.. Truman deciding sud-
denly to try his own hand at
Strengthening out the tangled for
eign mess. started making prepara-
tions to send Vinson to Russia.
THEN the state department heard
about it. Robert Lovett, under-sec-
retary of state, profoundly shocked,
notified George Marshall who came
winging frantically across the At
lantic from Paris to stop the Presi-
dent from committing what he con-
sidered a blunder of immense
gravity.
The Vinson trip was called off, of
course, and President Truman
backed hastily away from the whole
business after issuing an abashed
note of explanation.
BUT THE memories fingered on.
Mr.. Truman, in the minds of those
who knew or thought they knew
about the international situation,
had gone completely beyond the
pale with this momentary, head
strong effort.
His campaign opponent, Gov.
Thomas Dewey, at first wavered be-
tween righteous anger at what he
obviously considered a deliberate
flouting of the established bi-parti-
san foreign policy and elation that
the Democratic candidate had made
such grievous tactical error.
And although the Dewey camp
was astute enough to realize that
its cause would benefit more if it
magnanimously ignored the affair
than if it leaped in for the slaughter,
it nevertheless rebounds to the New
York governors credit that he did
not take advantage of this interna-
tionally dangerous situation for his
personal gain.
Significance
Why was President Truman so
widely and thoroughly castigated
for making what he undoubtedly
looked upon as sincere, construc-
tive attempt to clear up the Rus
sians's misunderstanding" of the
problem of atomic control?
Because his intention of sending
Chief Justice VinSon to Moscow rep
resented serious divergence from
the basic characteristic of U. S. for
eign policy-toughness with Russia.
MR.. TRUMAN'S proposal amount
ed to a softening up of the labori-
ously built ''get tough" attitude Of
the U. S.. toward Moscow. 1t was
tantamount to saying in a pleading
voice, Lets get together once
more and try to talk this thing
out"
Current history has proved that
the kind of personal diplomacy the
President sought to institute in the
Vinson trip has been completely un-
availing in dealing with Russia
since the war. Moreover, insofar as
personal diplomacy always tends to
bypass the United Nations, it usu-
ally has an ill effect on interna-
tional relations in general.
IN THE final analysis, personal
visit to the Kremlin by Vinson
probably would have upset the en-
tire, carefully fabricated structure
of the policy upon which the U. S.
is depending to defeat Russia's
aims in Europe.
