were declared to be Soviet citizens
from the former Baltic states.
Although these persons are said
to have committed ordinary viola
tions of police regulations, for
which all persons living in
Sweden are answerable, the So
Wet Embassy decided to make an
issue of their arrest.
If 1t were not for the spring
fever" which seems to have in

Iron Curtain, it is probable that
such friction would not receive
worldwide attention. But under
present conditions, with the So
Wet Union apparently about to
go on a rampage like Hitler's be-
fore the outbreak of World War
II, the tough Soviet attitude on
such incidents is regarded with
SUSPICION, not only by the gov
ernmsrat of Sweden but by other
Western governments as well.
The Swedes are worried but not
panicky. They are a self-reliant
people. There is no indication
that the Stockholm government
will change its present policies
simply because the representatives
of Moscow talk loudly.

made in Britain. More are being

The main weakness in Sweden S
armor is that its high command
has no war experience. Sweden
has been able to keep out of war
for nearly a century and q half
Her high-ranking officers are con-
sidered able theoreticians, but
they have not had the field expe-
rience gained by the leaders OF
other less fortunate European
countries, which have been al
most continuously at war.
The Swedish general staff is
fully aware that the risk OF
Sweden becoming militarily in
volved in war depends on the
Politburo. The Soviet armies will
not be able to make any major
moves against Norway and thus
reach the North Atlantic without
going through Sweden. The from
tier between Russia and Norway is
unsatisfactory for military opera
tions since there are no means for
the transportation Of large forces
Face Tough Problem.
Any actual aggression against
Norway must be made through
Sweden, which Is connected to
Norway with good railway
system.
The Russians undoubtedly know
that unless their potential victims
are caught completely by surprise
which is difficult these days
they will face a tougher immedi-
ate military problem than If they
decide to rush Western Europe.
The seven or eight railway tun-
nels between Sweden and Nor
way can be blown I'D at a mo-
ment's notice. and even an mex
perienced army like Sweden's can
put up a degree of resistance
which might give the Red forces
trouble for some time. Moreover,
in the last IL months the Swedish
Communists have lost considerable
ground. Thus Russia's potential
fifth column might not be in posi-
ton to fulfill the hopes of the
Soviet planners.
All these factors are taken into
consideration, not only by the
Swedish government. but also by
military observers in Europe and
America. They all agree that any
relaxation in vigilance might be
fatal, since nobody, even highly
placed persons in the satellite
states, can gauge the workings of
the minds of the men in the
Politburo.
They all agree. too, that no die
tatorship can remain static in 4
country with q vast military po-
tential. The antics Of the Polit-
buro since the end of the war con-
firm these views.

were familiar <hth that program
in Germany, which showed the
successive steps by which It grad
ually had been abandoned by the
the American Military Govern
ment headed by Gen. Lucius D.
Clay.
The old pattern was appearing
again. Gradually former Nazi
financiers and industrialists were
regaining influence and prestige.
Senator Kilgore, Democrat, OF
West Virginia, who is much con-
cerned about our policy in Ger
many, has been prodding the
Army Department for the COM
missions report. 1t still has not
been completed and submitted to
Secretary Royal. The West Vir-
ginia Senator is well informed
about the German cartels and
their part in the war from the
very exhaustive investigation he
directed as chairman of a special
Military Affairs subcommittee and
a trip to Germany Immediately
after the war when he gathered
considerable documentary evil
dence.
He thinks that Congress and
the American people ought to
know what is happening in Ger
many.
Controversy in Commission.
1t develops now that there Is q
controversy within the three-man
commission which consists of
Chairman Garland s. Ferguson,
member Of the Federal Trade
Commission; Samuel Isseks. New
York lawyer. formerly in charge
of the Justice Department anti
trust divisions New York Office,
and Arthur Kearney. Chicago
business management expert.
Mr.. Isseks is objecting to the de-
lay in the report. Chairman Fer
guson now is proposing to reSub-
nit some of the testimony taken
in Germany to Army officials
there, presumably for rechecking,
which would string the whole
process out longer.
Persons familiar with what is
going on are afraid this dilatory
procedure may result, in the end,
in what they call "whitewash"
of officials in Germany who have
been responsible for policy in the
Decentralization program.
They fear a repetition Of the
sort of intimidation already used
in one case. that of Alexander S.
Sacks, a New York lawyer at
tached to the Decentralization
branch. He was suspended by the
American Military Government
because of criticism of former
Undersecretary of the Army Will
liam H. Draper, jr.. and other Off
cials in testimony he gave the

quest. Mr.. Sacks accused these
officials of hampering the de-

try not as leader of his party but
as leader of a faction of his party.
That faction has been deciSively
beaten three times this week: On
civil rights. on rent control and
on the Wallgren nomination.
Seasoned judgment on the Hill
regards the latter two as defeats
he asked for which do him no
permanent harm and from which
he can learn valuable lessons. The
war has been over nearly four
years but the same inflexible rent
control was sought by the ad-
ministration. It Is true that Mon
Wallgren was an ex-senator and
it is unprecedented in modern
memory for the Senate to rebuff
it's own. But Mr.. Wallgren is 4
lightweight and the President
could not be defended for hand
ing him a Job dealing with COM
plex, delicate security matters In

Civil Rights Different.
Civil rights is different. Prin-
ciples and party pledges are in
volved. The Truman leaders are
powerless. The Republicans have
helped the Southerners load Ma
jority Leader Lucas with chains
and invited him to swim across
the river where. Republicans say
piously, they will help him on the
other side.
His leaders are looking to the
President to take a position. So
far he has not talked with them.
nor with Vice President Barkley.
High Democratic levels hold
differing opinions about what Mr..
Truman ought to do.
One prominent adviser hopes
frankly the President will draw
the battle line, favor his faction
and seek in every way possible to
reduce the other. The perilS in
this course are obvious, especially
for q meat-axer like Mr.. Truman
who has no art to smile and smile
and be villain still. That was
what President Roosevelt did, and
some politicos hated him for it
but many waverers were intim-
idated into line lest worse befall
them.
National Chairman McGrath
favors mediation and compromise.
In his book only q few Democrats
and they are not all in the
South-are beyond the pale. With
the others he thinks much can
and should be done.
