Green's Keynote May Pay
Illinois Governor Angles for G. O.P.
Second Place in Drafting Speech

side picture Of the Truman admin
istration's failures, false starts and
many impositions on what should
have been true partnership.
The foreign-policy issue has a
personal angle, too The notoriously
isolationist Col. Mccormick of the
Chicago Tribune is Green backer
and Gov. Green will still be run
ming for reelection If not for Vice
President.
Nevertheless it is a fair guess that
the foreign policy section of the
Green keynote will be scanned by
Senator Vandenberg prior to de-
livery.
Labor presents the principal
domestic headache of the speech.
The Centralia mine disaster aside,
Gov. Green has lately been pro-
labor at Springfield; the American
Federation of Labor supports him
this year for the first time. His
search is on for inspiring quotes
that will not ALLEVIATE that support
but will get by Senator Taft.
The record of Congress will be
the keynote's basic material, feshed
out with admiring adjectives.
Favorite Son.
Gov. Green will get a favorite-
son trial run from Illinois Sc dele
gates. AS his presidential chances
are not taken seriously, that dele
cation has been magnet for the
others. The Governor has extended
himself to be studiously fair to all.
Months ago, he promised the field
that If any one of them or his
supporters should begin a primary
campaign within Illinois, he would
notify everybody impartially. No.
body did.
There has been much cultivation
Of Illinois second-choice votes. 1t
is reported that all contenders ex-
cept possibly Gov. Warren have
friends aboard, with Col. McCor-
mick's choice, Senator Taft. leading.
Gov. Green could hardly board
a Taft ticket; geographically it
would be undesirable; so would
ticket twice blessed by the colonel.
Everywhere else he is strategically
okay. And a fine deal lies poten-
tentially in 56 delegates, one-third
of them officeholders under the
Governor. Rift rumors: That Gov.
Green has already made one with
Gov. Dewey, that Speaker Martin
has same.

Count Nadolny was never Nazi

government does not want a Com

This Changing World
Soviet Expected to Form German State
In Own Zone With Claims of All Reich

to Moscow's suggestions. In letters
to friends in Berlin and in the
Rhineland he stated emphatically
that he would not accept the Krem-
Inns offer unless he was Endorsed at
the same time by the American,
British and French authorities. In
recent months, however. he appears
to have had change Of heart and
is reported by his friends in the
western zones to have decided to
accept the East German premiership
under Soviet sponsorship.
The Russians conduct a very ac-
tive and effective propaganda all
over Germany. Taking advantage of
our psychological blunders, Moscow
feels that the time has come to play
its aces.
Count Nadolny has become con-
vinced that only close German
Russian cooperation can save the
Reich and put it back among the
ranks Of the respectable" nations.
Foreign Minister Molotov is report
ed to have impressed on him the
idea that recreation of a united
Germany, with the exclusive assist
ance of the U. S. S. r., eventually
will lead to a Soviet German alli-
ance.
Bismarck First Gave Idea.
The idea that Germany's future
was closely linked with that of Rus
sia was first advocated in the late
'80s by Prince Bismarck. Flirtations
between Berlin and St. Petersburg
lasted until the end of the Russo
Japanese War in 1905, but nothing
came from them. The czarist gov
ernment was in desperate need of
money and France alone was in a
position to provide for the needs of
the Russian government. This led
to the Triple Entente between
France, Russia and Great Britain.
Now, after almost so years, Count
Nadolny feels he can take up where
Bismarck left off. The German
nationalist diplomat is strongly at
tracted by the Soviet bait of an
eventual Soviet German alliance. He
is said to have been assured by the
Politburo's agents that Russia alone
has the military means to re-create
a united Germany, after "respon-
sible" Soviet-controlled German
government has been established
with Germans at its head. There
are enough divisions, they say, in
Eastern Germany and Poland to off,
set whatever opposition the western
powers may offer.
The next few weeks are expected
to show clearly the Soviet hand in
Germany and the real Russian re-
action to the western powers plans
for creation of united Western
German government.

An Act of Supreme Responsibility

which have made the problems of
peace hardly less than those OF war,
and which contributed to the revo-
luton of nihilism we should have
been at pains to avoid, the United
States is exactly as responsible as
the Soviet Union.
The Marshall Plan represented
the first awakening of reason and
sanity. 1t was motivated by pure
self interest - by the recognition
that unless what Is left of western
civilization Is restored, this country
will be faced by organized savagery
over all Eurasia. and almost certain
war. It gave the first ray Of hope
to Europe. Beyond any doubt 1t
halted communism in italy and
checked it in France. 1t pulled the
European states together, in the first

BY the nature of the European
situation, nearly three-fourths of

Only rs to 80 per cent can go into

sum voted, European leaders have
laid their plans. A few days ago
Premier de Gasperi OF Italy, for in
stance. outlined a program Of land
reclamation to meet partly the pri-
mary italian problem of 100000
landless peasants.
Therefore, to pare off Is per cent,
as the House of Representatives, led
by Representative Taber Of New
York, has just done. Is an act OF
supreme responsibility. 1t knocks
out all existing plans, discourages
our friends and heartens our enc
mics. 1t confirms the general i'm
preston abroad that the United
States moves from impulse to i'm
pulse in UNREASONABLE behavior. 1t
certainly Is not the exercise Of lead
ership.
For leadership depends on pa
tience, sacrifice, responsibility and
consistency. Only these inspire the
confidence which is the reward OF
leadership. To build up hopes and
dash them down is to behave not
maturely, but childishly.

American policy Of unconditional
surrender, which made it impossible
to bring about a general German
mutiny in 1914, probably prolonged
the war a year, and added nightly
to the destruction which any post
war period must overcome. The
division of the world into spheres
of influence at Teheran, Yalta and
Potsdam, with completely cynical
disrespect for the wishes and inter-
ests of "the people concerned" ad-
vanced the Russians beyond the

The vindictiveness Of our original

rable destruction of the middle
classes; the arrogance which as
sumed that military occupation
could take over the management of
state. industries, trade, schools, uni
versities, clinics and every function
of organized life, compromising a
bureaucracy upon civilian
one, of horrendous proportions; the
devising of a preposterous peace
treaty for Italy, which we became
eager to amend before the ink was
dry; impulsive action on Palestine
