Final Peace Treaty Draft for Japan Nearer

this full well. In spite of the in
tense interest in the limited and
sanguinary war in Korea, it is i'm
portant to bear in mind that II
is not the 38th Parallel. but Japan
herself. which is the mighty plum
in the vision of Russia. And Ko-
rea points like a blunt dagger to-
ward these British isles of the
Orient"
Mr.. Dulles said recently the
Soviets Imagine vast possibilities
out of combination, under thei1
direction, of the Asiatic power OF
Russia, China and Japan"
Want Fellowship
Fortunately, he added, "the
japanese people do not want that
combination. They want fel-
lowship with the nations which
genuinely seek peace through col
lective security in accordance with
the principles Of the United Ma
tions."
Thus the compelling factor in 8
drive for an early, and liberal
treaty with Japan is an effort tc
solidfy that feeling on the part o.
the japanese d'to insure theil
willing entrance into the camr
of the Western powers as ar
active partner in the theological
struggle against communism.
In seeking a treaty that is es.
sentially one of reconciliation, tn.
United States has had an amaz.
ing amount of over-the-shouldel
advice from Japan. Probably
never in modern diplomatic his
tory has victor nation conferred
so frequently with the conquered

States has been circulating since

2. The development of subsidi.
ary security pacts between ths

World War II Japan captured a
fabulous empire, stretching from
Manchuria to Australia, before
the combined might of the Allies
brought her to her knees.
Since that crushing defeat
Japan has been able largely to
patch up the wounds of war. To-
day her population numbers some
IS million industrious, literate
people, who have a sincere il
somewhat confused interest in
democracy. Japan alone in Asia
possesses both the know-how and
the highly developed tools of an
industrial civilization, as meas
ured in terms of steel mills, ship
yards, machine tool plants and
ref1neries. Her one great lack is
raw materials. Either as future
friend or foe, Japan is pivotal
key to the balance of Eastern
power-not alone in Asia, but
throughout the vast sweep of the
Pacific basin.

his discussions prove as fruitful
as expected, there is considerable

At a moment in history when
the Korean war is vying for head

ings, and threats of a greater war
with Red China or Russia lurk
behind our every move in the
Pacific, talk Of q formal peace
with Japan may sound somewhat
pedantic. But the significance of
Japan ought not to be under
estimated.

these contracts is expected to
reach $84 billion.
While figures for contracts are
obtainable by months, figures for
production are not broken down
for security reasons.
John D. Small, chairman Of the
Munitions Board, said that deliv-
cries will total about $11 billion by
next June 80. Deliveries in the
six months to that date will far
outstrip those Of the last six
months of 1850. In fact. the out
put of the first three months of
this year is reported to be about
double that Of the last three
months of 1850.
In the next year, ending June
30, 1852, Mr.. Small estimated de-
Iliveries at about $38 billion.
The progress of specific pro-
duction programs is naturally less
discussed publicly than the over
all goals.
It is known, however, that
Walker Bulldog tanks are rolling
off the production lines at the
Cleveland tank plant. It is the
first completely new tank to be
built by the Army since World
War II. The first production line
built Bulldog was produced at the
end of March, three months
ahead of schedule.
A guarded reference to progress
in plane production was made
recently by Defense Mobilizer
Charles E. Wilson. He and other
officials had gone to Wright
Field. near Dayton. Ohio, and in
spected the newest planes and
other weapons and equipment.
Pleased With Planes
Mr.. Wilson said the plane pro-
duction program. both as to guam
tity and quality, brought a warm
glow of pride in our American
genius for design, development
and production"
He said he wished that "a Ger
tain mustachioed gentleman from
Moscow" had been there, too.
Perhaps he might then begin to
cut his ambitions down to size, I"
Mr.. Wilson added.
Tanks, planes and other weap-
ons are not all of the program,
by any means. There must be
transportation for raw materials
and finished products both at
home and abroad to keep the
economy going.
| The start of the war in the Far

takes more steel from the gen.
eral pool.
The Government has turned to
the World War II device Of the
controlled materials plan to meet
the insufficiency of these three
critical metals. This plan gets
started July /. The three months
thereafter will be a period Of ad-
justment and gearing the plan to
operating needs.
At the beginning, about 35 to
40 per cent Of the total steel sup
ply, and copper and aluminium in
proportion. will be apportioned to
assure adequate supplies for mill
tary production and supporting
programs. Producers of other
goods will be under controls limit
ing their use of the metals to a
percentage of their normal con-
sumption.
Effect on Autos
| BY September, the percentage
of steel administered under GIMP
may rise as high as IS for all pro-
grams including a substantial part
of civilian production. It is not
beyond possibility that by the end
of the year it will be 100 per cent
as it was during the war. In
other words, by then every ton
of steel may be apportioned care
fully among all users, including
all those who produce civilian
i goods.
The pressure which would bring
this about is the enormous de-
Imand for the metal and the neec
of adjusting the demand to the
supply. Uncontrolled, the demand
might reach to 1876 or 14O pei
cent Of the available steel, anc
while the supply is being increaset

quick settlement of the legal state
of hostilities.
Our top planners are not so
anxious for a quick treaty that
they want to "go it alone" Pri-
marily, they hope all 13 member
nations of the Far Eastern Com
mission, and Ceylon, Indonesia
and Korea, can agree on mutual
terms.
This points up the first of re-
cent events presaging an early
treaty.
All 16 nations now either have
commented in detail on the draft
treaty, or are expected to shortly.
Their responses indicate substan-
tial agreement with the United
States draft.
Australia, New Zealand and the
Philippines. however, are nervous
ly concerned lest a peace treaty
allow Japan to rearm and again
become an aggressive threat in the
Pacific. This brings up the second
point.
Remilitarization will be encour-
aged in Japan to prevent a power
vacuum in the Far East when
American troops return. To allay
the fears Of the three Pacific pow-
ers that this rearmament will af-
feet security, the United States is
doing two things: 1t is working out
mutual-assistance pacts with the
nervous three; and it is proposing
to limit Japanese rearmament to
ground troops.
A mutual-assistance pact already
has been reached by the United
States and the Philippines. A
triangular pact with Australia,
New Zealand and the United
States is being negotiated.
The Yoshida government in Ja-
pan has indicated its willingness
to accept future American naval
and aerial bases. Without her own
naval and air power, a Japanese
military arm would of necessity
be capable only Of resisting ag-
gression and could not wage an
offensive campaign without our
aid.
Russia Aims for Veto
This brings point three into
focuS-Russia's renewed interest
in peace treaty talks.
Russia has submitted it's COM
ments on the American draft
treaty, comments much closer to
the United States peace views than
might be expected. Russia, how
ever, Is again demanding that,
(see GORDON. Page C-2.)
Evening star., 1951-05-20

but also growing number Of sup
porting programs must be supplied
also. The Defense Production Ad-
|ministration allotted approxi-
mately IL million tons of steel for
"a programs in June. The num-
Der of such essential programs is
expected to be tripled in coming
months.
The "a programs included not
only those for freight cars and
ships already mentioned, but such
things as machinery and pipe for
the petroleum industry, steel
drums for oil and other liquids.
electric generating equipment and
power lines, farm machinery and
equipment, containers for shipping
milk, machinery for mining, and
school and hospital construction in
areas of expanding population.
Steel production was about 100
million tons last year, it is ex-
pected to reach 104 million tons
this year and 110 million tons
next year. Aluminium production
is expected to be 1.3 million tons
this year, only slightly above last
year. But next year it should
reach 1.8 million tons. Copper
production, 2 million tons in 1850,
is not expected to be much more
than that in 1851 and 1852. Not
until 1855 is copper production
expected to be substantially in
creased.
Belt Tightening
The upshot of all this is that
the American civilian is going to
find it necessary to pull in his
belt and buckle down to harder
work this fall and next year.
!. In 1858, according to Mr.. vii.
lson's plans, We should have equip
Iment for an Army of 3.5 million
plus adequate standby supplies. In
; addition we will have the tools
and plants ready to turn out 50,-
900 planes and $4,000 tanks a
year, $4,000 jet engines a month
i. and other supplies in proportion.
That is expected to spell Sc
, curity. On top of that we will
have a greatly expanded produc-
tion capacity. If it is not neces-
sary to devote it to war production
it will be able to turn out such
a flood of consumer goods for
civilians as the world has never
seen.
All that. and safety. too! Pro-
viding, in the meantime, the
Nation works hard and keeps its
powder dry.

vital interests of the other. This
feeling had begun to inf1ame and
poison disagreements which. each
taken by itself, would have
amounted to no more than the
normal and inevitable differences
of opinion which keep arising in
every alliance and have to be
ironed out from day to. day.
Barometer Rising
The major significance of the
three developments is that, for
the first time in months, Britain
and America have again tackled
some of these differences in the
old team spirit and with the old
tacit understanding that contin-
ued unity is the paramount in
terest Of both countries to which
minor conflicts Of interest and
opinion must give way. It is this
aspect of things which raises
hopes that British rela-
tions have turned the corner. Il
would be too much to say thai
fair weather has returned, but al
least the barometer Is rising again
The deeper underlying causes
for this favorable change in the
atmosphere must probably be
sought in the dismissal of Gen
Macarthur and the resignation
of Aneurin Bevan. Both Gen
Macarthur and Mr.. Bevan have
in subsequent statements, clearly
brought into the open those hid
den trends in American and Brit
ish policies which before hao
aroused the greatest mutual sus-
picions. When Gen. Macarthur
proposed to risk all-out war with
China and even Russia for the
sake of immediate victory in Ko.
rea and "if necessary to do il
alone" he put into plain language
the worst fears entertained ir
Britain about the possible course
of American policy. Similarly
, when Mr.. Bevan complained
about Britain's being dragged
by the chariot of American diplo-
macy" and limited that Britain
should maneuver for an inter-
mediate position between America
and Russia, he expressed the dark
est American suspicious of British
ulterior motives.
Gen. Macarthur and Mr.. Bevar
both had been in positions where
they could influence, though not
! finally decide, the shape of Amer.
ican strategy and British policy
Now that both are out and thei,
objections have been openly de-
fined and openly rejected by thei,

temper was given last Tuesday
night when Sir Gladwyn Jebb,
chief British delegate to the
United Nations, publicly pledged
that Britain will stand whole
heartedly with the United States
in the general struggle against
Communist-inspired aggression.
None of these developments is
in itself of a momentous and de-
lcisive nature. But neither were
the many differences and mutual
Iannoyances which, over the last
half year or SO, gradually brought
British American relations to a
point where an estrangement was
seriously threatening. At no
time-except perhaps for few
days in mid-January-had there
been an open clash, anything that
could be termed a "crisis" in
British-American relations. On
the highest level of international
grand policy-at the four power
meeting in Paris, at the United
Nations General Assembly, in the
North Atlantic Council-Britain
and America managed to main
tain a common front. What oc-
Cured was an accumulating Sc
ries Of unresolved disagreements
on special and local questions, an
increasing failure to see eye-to-
eye in the treatment of these
questions, a slow eating away OF
confidence and an increasing mu-
tual irritation.
Affected Top Level
This irritation was more strong.
ly felt and more openly expressed
in public opinion than in govern.
mental quarters, but by last month
it had become unmistakable al
the Government level, too. It hac
begun to affect official relations
for instance. in what may be
called the leak policy" of the
State Department. Minor ane
major disagreements-most, but
not all of them, connected with
the China complex and the higher
strategy of the Korean war, ano
all kept unresolved with certain
sluggish obstinacy on both sides
had produced serious doubts as te
whether Britain and America were
still pulling in the same genera
direction.
A feeling had gained ground or
both sides that underneath the
official policies there were force.
lat work pulling Britain ant
America apart and trying tt
launch each country on separate
policies incompatible with thu
