German Problem Still .Honqs
Allied Agreement on Organization of ESQ OOO-Won Army
Hinges on Adoption Of Schunon Plan by the French

There is still feeling east of
the Rhine that the Allies want
to use German manpower as .
cannon fodder This sentiment
is exploited by Communist prop
aganda, which is as virulent as
ever
In France, the government
has overlooked the need to per-
suade the French public opinion

of its neighors across the
Rhine.
The French steel magnates.
on the other hand. do not like
the Schuman Plan and have un-
dertaken Iarge-scale propaganda
against it. While some members
of the ever-changing French
government have made occa-
sional speeches praising the plan
- with tongue in cheek - its
opponents have used every de-
vice. particularly the news
papers, to attack and obstruct
the economic plan of their
foreign minister They have been
assisted by French Communists,
who point out that the pro-
posed combine" would cause
unemployment, and by a num-
ner Of members of the National
Assembly. who are sympathetic
with tho viewpoint of the
French industrialists.
The United States has no
monopoly on lobbies and five
percenters.
Under the plan for organiza-
tion of a European army to in
clude Germans, the main prob
lem is supplies. which eventually
will have to be produced by the
Europeans themselves. If the
Schuman plan fails, Germany
will insist that its coal and steel
industry be fully restored, with
out any shackles on production.
Under present circumstances
the French claim that their own
security would be endangered if
Germany were given absolute
freedom to produce whatever it
wants in the Ruhr Valley. The
Germans, on the other hand,
maintain that the military
forces they contribute to West
ern defense must be provided

British interference which has
prevented the Korean war from
being fought as it should have
been from a military stand
point.
The indictment covers the
fact, too, that while the Ameri-
can people are being taxed
heavily aid are spending billions
of dollars to ward off a possible
Russian attack. Great Britain
is being allowed to trade with
Russia and her satellites when
everybody knows Russia would
be frustrated in her rearmament
program if the screws were put
on trade relations with the
Communist bloc.
Great Britain doesn't hesitate
to put the screws on weak and
helpless Iran by denying sterl-
ing exchange to that Inflated
country. which seeks to retain
its sovereignty through a ma
tionalization law just as did the
British Labor Government. In
the last few days Britain has cut
off sterling and dollars from
Iran. which is an illustration of ,
what the British Government
can do when it really wants to
stop trade with an unfriendly
country
The main protest here is that
Secretary Acheson has not used
his power and influence to per-
Suade Great Britain to stop her
trade with the Communists, nor
has he offered American COM
pensation for the small amount
of financial loss that would be
involved. 1t has just been an

Dovid Lowrence:

The Republicans secretly are
very glad that President Tru-
man has decided to retain Sec
retary of State AcheSon for the
remainder of this presidential
term, because that means the
Truman-AcheSon policies will
be one of the main issues of the
1852 campaign,
If Mr.. Truman runs again, he
will be asked on the stump to
state whether he will keep Mr..
AcheSon for four more years.
He will doubtless answer in the
affirmative.
If somebody other than Mr..
Truman runs on the Demo-
cratic ticket, he, too, will be
asked whether he intends to
keep Dean Acheson as Secretary
of State.
This is as it should be. For
the best way a republic can
function is to give the people
clear-cut issues in elections and
opportunities to vote yes" or
mo" on concrete points of pub
lie policy.
This correspondent has de-
Tended Mr.. AcheSon as a loyal
American with not the slightest
grain of sympathy in his make
up for Communist imperialism.
and has even defended his right
to say what he did about Alger
Hiss, but the indictment of the
Department of State today rests
on far more serious grounds. 1t
is not a question of personali-
ties but of principle.
The indictment primarily is
that both President Truman
and Secretary AcheSon have
bowed in submission to the
British Foreign Office, allowing
American boys in Korea to be
stabbed in the back by British
commercialism and accepting

a way of furnishing dollars or
pounds to the Russians so they
can buy raw materials with
which to build up the Commu-
mist armies in the Far East.
Britain has. for example. been
increasing her rubber exports
to Russia to help furnish tires
for the trucks and planes that
are used to carry weapons to
kill American boys in Korea.
The failure of Secretary Ache
son on strategy or policy in
Iran is also something for pub
lie discussion. 1t is revealed now
through press dispatches from
Teheran that Ambassador
Henry F. Grady has just re-
signed because Secretary Ache
son went along with the Brit
ish and refused to follow a
course recommended by the
American ambassador which
would have protected the pres
tige of the United States in the
Middle East from being sullied
with the unpopular record of
British colonialism in that areas
But the main argument
against the Truman-Acheson
policies will involve the highly
controversial subject of relations
with China. it being contended
by the critics that Mr.. Acheson
was gullible and allowed COM
muniStically inclined advisers
to sway Department of State
policy and thus lose 400. .000. 900
Chinese to Communist control.
1t is a healthy thing for de-
mocracy to debate these things
in a national election, and Mr..
Truman is to be commended for
wishing to fight the issue out in
the 1852 campaign with Mr..
Acheson as his principal associ-
ate and spokesman.

Constantine Brown:

The agreement between the
Foreign Ministers Of the United
States, Britain and France to
permit the organization of a
German army Of some 250,000
men--to be included in what is
generally described as the Euro
pean army-has not yet solved
the German problem.
French Foreign Minister
Schuman finally agreed that
the West Germans could organ
ize their forces in division units.
These would operate, theoreti-
cally, at least, within the frame
work of an army composed OF
French, British and other
NATO soldiers in the ratio Of
three to one.
While each unit will be COM
manded by a native general,
the whole structure will be con-
trolled by a super-defense de-
partment, in whose hands will
be placed the job Of supplying
these forces with necessary
equipment.
The success Of this proposal
as accepted by the American.
British and French governments
depends entirely on the adop-
ton by the French Parliament
of the Schuman Plan for a
merger of the coal and steel
industries of Western Europe.
So far neither the French
National Assembly nor the West
German Parliament has ratified
this agreement. The chances Of
it's being accepted by those two
bodies hangs by a slender
thread.
The German reaction to the
French agreement for the for
nation OF a Reich army Of 250.-
900 men - or Is divisions, each
headed by a German general -
is mixed. The German people are
not yet satisfied that this will
be followed by full recognition
by the Western powers Of the
complete sovereignty of the
West German republic. Reports
from Bonn and other parts Of
Western Germany indicate that
there is strong opposition to the
plan. even If the government Of
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer
we're willing to go along.

with the necessary arms from
their own factories.
Thus, so long as the Schuman
Plan is not accepted by the par
liamentS in Paris and Bonn.
there is a strong feeling in some
American official quarters that
the present agreement to include
democratic Germany in the Eu-
ropean defense system will re-
main just another official dec
laration, the practical value Of
which is no greater than the
paper on which it is written.
The French government is
fully aware of this. But it can
do nothing about it. It's major
ity in Parliament is very slim.
Its fate depends on the votes Of
the Communists and DeGaul-
lists. While these two largest
groups in the assembly are bitter
foes, they have voted together
in the past to overthrow cabi-
nets.
Even in the ranks of the vari-
Gus So-called Socialist parties,
which pooled their forces in the
elections last June to defeat the
Communists and DeGaullists,
there is no real unity. Each
group is jockeying for Office, and
that can come to them only by
the overthrow Of the incumbents.
AS things stand now it is
highly probable that the pres
ent government will be ousted
before the end of the year. And
none of its possible successors
will have the necessary majority
to obtain the approval of the
assembly for the important
Schuman Plan.
The vague American sug-
geStion that Germany be given
unrestricted sovereignty is not
likely to be accepted by either
France or the rest of the con-
tinental European nations which
belong to NATO.
The Adenauer cabinet, in turn,
is not strong enough to accept
the Big Three proposal for
Germany's participation in the
defense of Western Europe with
out full sovereignty. Sentiment
among the Germans in that di.
rection is too strong to be over
looked.

It startles most of us to find
out what ideas other people
have about us Americans.
For example-the two Eng
lish >schoolboys. Is and 10 years
old, who have just spent year
among us. They told reporters
in New York that they have
found out that not all Ameri-
cans have f1ashy automobiles,
wear gaudy ties and cowboy
hats, chew bubble gum, act like
gangsterS and possess bulging
bankrolls. Having corrected
these erroneous impressions
they had before they had seen
us. they now sum us up thus:
Americans are wonderful,
friendly and generous people"
Then this general observation
from them:
People everywhere are just
about the same"
That is simple fact. Yet
fewer people in the world at
large today seem really to be-
lieve it. There is a rising tide
of nationalism in the thinking
about people of other nations,
due probably to the fretful,
jumpy state of the worlds peo-
pie. The suspicious embrace
those supposed to be our friends,
as we'll as those we think Of as
enemies.
We all appear to tend more to
think of others in stock symbols
and caricatures, despite the sup
posed generally more enlight-
ened state of the world. The
mental caricatureS of the two
British schoolboys are matched
by the mental caricatures many
of us have about the British peo-
pie, and other people around the
world, including the Russian
people, of course, and principally
just now. To many of us
they are all the leering carica-
ture of Joe Stain so familiar.
and we are represented to them
in two groups-bloated wall
street capitalists" or starving
slaves.
This form of international in
sanity, tying ourselves up in
mental nationaliStic strait jack
cts, could as well burst forth
and cause another world war as
some of the more orthodox rea-
sons the statesmen and his
torians find for such calamities.
1t could be as simple and hor-
rible as that.
When people reach the stage
of thinking of those in other
countries in caricature, it is easy
to go on to the next stage which
is to begin thinking of people in
you own country in caricature
and with labels, and to regard
them with suspicion. That is
trend today right here in the
United States, exemplif1ed in the
cataloguing process in which
some indulge about their neigh
borS on the basis of what they
say or think.
1t can even get to hair-Split-
ting where it's what a person
may think on one issue or SUBJ
ject, as, for an extreme exam
pie of caricature, when a real
estate lobbyist sometime ago
called Senator Taft "commu-
nistic" because he supported
public housing. 1t was hardly
necessary for the senator to
sue to clear himself, or appear
before the Un-American Activ-
tiles Committee. We aren't
quite that crazy yet-but almost.
Most insidious has been the
effect IN our universities where
teachers are getting afraid and
jittery.

cation.

remember some of them" This
reminder of Mr.. Moody's we GER
tainly need in the world today,
for we are living in an age which
tends to forget all too easily. Long
ago Shakespeare wrote in his play
GAS You Like IT.
Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,
That dost not bite SO nigh
AS benefits forget -"
And Kipling, in his often-quoted
"Recesssional," says
"Lod God of Hosts, be with us
yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget"
We are in real danger if we for
get the lessons of the past, and we
are in even greater danger if we
forget God. But that is just what
many of us are doing. We forget
that a day has been set apart for
rest and worship, and because we
forget the Lords Day we forget
the Lord Himself. The Lords Day
should be a day of remembrance
in which we call to mind "all His
benefits" and offer u thanks to
Him in prayer and praise.

Joey Maxim Says He Can Add

BY the Associated Press

CLEVELAND, Jan. 16.-Dapper
joey Maxim fdgeted in his East
Side Cleveland delicatessen today
hoping to go after Ezzard Charles
and the worlds heavyweight box
ing title.
Joey is the world light heavy
weight champion. He hasn't de-
Tended his title since he got it
from Freddie Mills in England a
year ago.
But Joey claims his chatty
manager, Jack Kearns, is posi-
tive" a Maxim -Chsrles fight will
be carded for this summer, pos
sibly in Pittsburgh or Chicago.
THAT heavyweight champion
ship is all Doc (Kearns) thinks
about" Maxim said. "And he's
the boss. I never was SO sure
of myself and that's the truth. -
Maxim, who has fought Charles
three times and lost them all on
points, enjoyed loud horse laugh
when he heard Charles had pre-
dicted he would knock him out
| if the fight comes off.
The prediction came via Ray
Arcel. Charles trainer. Actually,
this is unusual for the modest
Charles and Arcel himself said he
was "very surprised"
Joey didn't think much of Ez-
yards showing against Lee Oma
last week. He watched the fight
on television and pronounced:
"They were both pretty bad, the
way it looked to me. The fight
did me more good than it did
Charles. You'd be surprised at
the number of people who told me
that could have trimmed the two
of them. And they all meant it,
too"
The men around Charles are
definitely interested in carding q
