lively subordinated and de-
pendent on him.
. None of the three likely sue
cessorS can boast of such a
hold on the people and the
machinery of government.
Georgi Malenkov, the secretary
of the Communist Party, is a
typical party official who is
strong with the party machine
because he has bestowed what
is known in our democratic
form of government as patron
age. His prestige is limited,
however, to the exclusive party
organization, which consists of
only some 6 million members
out Of a total population of
nearly 200 million.
Lavrenty Beria, sinister head
of the state secret police, holds
tightly the reins of that dread
organization. He was high in
favor with Stain, but less so
with the members of the Polit-
buro or the army.
: The taciturn Deputy Prime
Minister Vyacheslav Molotov
is better known to the outside
world than to his countrymen.
He lacks the intriguing quail
tiles Of Beria or the driving
energy of Malenkov.
But what is of vital interest
to us and to all free nations
is the fact that all these three
prospects are far more inimical
to the West than was Stain
himself. The Red dictator had
the ability to throw dust in
our eyes by appearing occa-
sionally as favorable to an
East-West understanding. He
was shrewd enough to utter
friendly" words in interviews
for Western consumption when
he thought they suited the So
viet's interests of the moment.
Stain hated the West and
especially America, because he
considered us the only hurdle
to his plans for world domi-
nation. The three likely sue
ceSSors to his mantle hate the
West on general principles. Ex-
cept for Molotov, the other

Krennlin Struggle Is Unlikely
PoIitburo Knows That Open Fight for Stains Mantle
Will Lead to Complete Collapse Of Soviet Power
Constantine Brown:

Washington experts on the
o. s. S. R. are trying to guess
what the immediate implica-
tions of Joseph Stains perma-
nent removal from the world
scene will be. They all wonder
whether this will mean that
the Specter of a third world
war has come closer to us
or whether war has been fur
ther postponed.
The possibility of a struggle
for succession within the
Kremlin is strongly discounted.
The members of the Politburo
know that an open fight over
Stalin's red mantle will only
lead to a total disruption of
their power and of the Soviet
Empire. They point out that
the struggle for power follow
ing the death of Lenin took a
long time to end, and culmi-
mated in the widespread purges
of 1936-1938.
There seems to be no doubt
that Stain has left a political
testament indicating his sue
cesSor. The names of Malen-
kov. Molotov and Beria are
cited in that order of pref
erence. The suggestion that
the Red dictator may have
established a triumvirate of
these three close advisers is
discounted. Stain knows that
a dictatorship with divided
authority cannot last even a
few months.
1t seems probable that
Stain has selected as his sue
cessor the man who enjoys the
greatest confidence of the
armed forces. Thus we may
expect in the near future a
dictatorship which will rely
on the armed forces rather
than on the personality of the
dictator himself. This was not
the case in the long regime of
Josef Stain. He had achieved
over the years he was in power,
through propaganda means,
such a personal prestige that
the armed forces were effec-

ground of the optimists. They
doubt that the Communist die
tator has prepared his sue
cesSion, insisting it would be
out of character.
This group turns back on
Churchill his own story at
the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology a few years ago
about the Great Khan, the in
vincible ruler who extended his
power so far beyond his own
frontiers. Mr.. Churchill re-
called how one day the rulers
followers got word that the
Great Khan had died; the
quarrel over the succession be-
gan and an era of peace was
ushered in.
The State Department does
not expect to know the answers
to the Russian riddle any time
soon. They anticipate a vast
public mourning for Stain
when and as his passing is an
nounced. It will be used, they
think, as an opportunity for a
great display of solidarity and
strength. Then the real reac-
tion will follow and it will be
possible to award the palm in
some degree either to the pres
ent pessimists or to the opti-
mistS.

Piles of the Atlantic Charter
as it does in Paragraph II,
where it is the declared inten-
ton of the powers to help the
liberated nations destroy the
last veStigeS of NaziiSm and
FaScism and create democratic
institutions of their own
choosing and restore
sovereign rights to those that
shave forcibly been deprived of
them by the aggressor ma
tions." It is this that we accuse
the Soviets of violating. But
negotiations which occurred
before the conference, and
other articles in the agreement
itself, cancel out the effective
ness of Paragraph II.
At the time of the agree
ment, Poland was represented.
and only legitimately repre-
sented by the Polish govern
ment in London. The provi-
sional government functioning
in Lublin had been brought in
and installed by the Red army,
and included persons who had
been Soviet citizens for years.
The only Polish army that
had fought the Germans
throughout the war-f1rst on
the eastern and later on the
western front-waS that of
Gen. Anders, the military force
of the London government.
This included all anti-German
parties except the Communists
who during the Russo-German
pact had made common cause
with the Russians invading
Poland.
Nevertheless, before Yalta,
this government had been
abandoned by Britain and
America. Yalta recognized the

for optimism with some Rus
sian specialists here.
Mr.. Churchill believes that
the passing of Stain from the
Communist scene is a cause
for concern in the Western
world. His argument runs
like this:
Stain is an old-fashioned
Bolshevik, one of the very few
remaining, and they are easier
to deal with than the mana
gerial type who have emerged
at the Kremlin since the war.
These new and younger men
have virtually no knowledge of
the outside world; they have
grown up under the Commu-
mist tyranny and are zealots
greatly to be feared.
They have done very well
from the production point of
view in the Soviet state and
their success in forging a satel-
lite ring around Russia has
given them confidence. They
are the more to be feared be-
cause they are both more igno-
rant and more conceited than
Stain, even though they may
be equally able.

for leadership among Stalin's
successors affords the chief

Washing Away Sins of Yo|to
Western SPokesnnen's Attitude Of Injured Innocence
Is Not Warranted; Full Reputation Is Our Duty

1t may be argued that
denunciation of the Yalta and
other secret wartime agree
ments can have no practical
results in any case. But a
mere gesture, which is what
President Eisenhower's pro-
posal comes down to, does
have, and already has had,
political consequences. It has
encouraged the Germans to
hope for American support in
the rectifying of their from
tiers, has dismayed the French,
and has caused suspicion even
among anti-Communist Poles
that they may become the
victims of still another parti-
ton. Therefore. as a move in
the cold war, any denuncia-
ton is dubious at this time.
The asset, however, of re-
pudiating these agreements is
right here in America, whose
people believe, and believe
correctly, that they sold ma
tions down the river for power
political considerations, and
were thoroughly immoral. The
American people want to have
confidence that never again
will there be such breaches
between promises and reality.
They want our Government to
act in manner that will clean
our own hands and express
atonement. And that cannot
be accomplished by putting all
the blame on the Russians.
In the belated revisioniSm,
which the elections expressed,
truth is the first necessity for
a moral catharsis. The truth
is that the Yalta agreement
was bound to have the results
it did, despite its pious plati-
tudes reaf1lrming the princi-

only, demanding that its base
be "broadened." What hap
pened to the representatives
of the Polish Parliament and
underground who came out of
hiding from the Germans to
help broaden it is in the his
torical record. They were ar
: rested by the Russian military,
a fact which the Russians
calmly announced at the San
Francisco conference, after
which the Soviets were never
theleSs admitted to the U. N.
In f1agrant violation Of
sovereign national rights" the
three principals at Yalta re-
partitioned Poland without the
participation and against the
consent of any Polish govern
ment except the Lublin pup
pets. Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr..
Churchill agreed to leave Rus
sia all of Poland that she had
taken in cahoots with Hitler
and the territory was Specifi-
cally delineated in the Yalta
agreement opp. VID. It was
merely recognized that sub
stantial accessions of territory
in the north and west" Cat the
expense Of Germany should
be granted Poland. but it was
declared that the fixing of
these frontiers should await
the peace conference"
Every patriotic Pole abroad
had protested before Yalta
that these measures-already
widely bruited about-would
only lead to the domination
of all Poland by the Soviets.
They did so result, and I,
for one, am tired of the atti-
tude of injured innocence on
the part Of the Western
spokeSmen.

Bunb|ing, Fumb|ing Potomac
New Administration Doesn't Seem Able Get Its Program
On the Truck-Some Doubt Also as to Who Is Engineer

President Eisenhower and Sec
retary Dulles have now pre-
pared the anticipated pro-
nouncement and Congress, or
the Senate side thereof, finds
the terms very uncertain in
deed. Apparently, the Presi-
dent and the Secretary, hav-
ing taken a good look at the
agreement and refreshed their
recollection of the conditions
at the time 1t was made. have
discovered that it wasn't par
ticularly evil in itself, that
under the same circumstances
they might have done just
what Roosevelt and Churchill
did. The evil lay chiefly in
Russia's brazen violation of
the agreement. The pro-
nouncement, therefore, merely
deplores Russia'S behavior.
So the Senate majority is
now engaged in rewriting the
thing in a way that won't
make the echoes Of the anti
Yalta campaign sound quite so
silly. Senators Taft ct al, hav-
ing won most of their tiffs
with the Eisenhower team, ex-
pect to win this one - for
whatever it is worth.
Another instance Of confu-
sion is found in the issue Of the
so-called tidelands. Giving
the tidelands back to the

first order of business. The
new Secretary of the Interior
gave Congress his views on
how this should be done. His
views did not please the States
Immediately concerned. The

Sented the matter from the
legal viewpoint. He pleased
the interested States even less.

1t Will Be the Same Old Ivan
Change in Personalities at Krem|in Helm Won't Mean
There VIII Be Any Chonqe in ImperioIist Course
David Lowrence:

The policy Of the United
States Government as a conSe-
quence of the ending of the
dictatorship of Joseph Stain
will of necessity be based on
one assumption. This is that
any change in personalities at
the helm in Moscow does not
mean peace or an easing of
world tension until there is
concrete evidence to that
effect.
Hence, the build-up of arma-
ment in America and overseas
will continue as per program.
If and when the armies of the
Soviet Union are demobilized
and there is a withdrawal of
aid to the Chinese Communist
military forces in Korea, there
can safely be a change in policy
here.
Despite all the speculation as
to what the absence of Stain
from the topmost position in
the Russian regime means or
may mean, the American Gov
ernment, which bears the
major responsibility for pro-
tecting the free world against
further attack by the Com
munist regime, cannot make
its plans on the basis of wish
full thinking or guessing.
From the standpoint Of the
Moscow Communist leaders,
there isn't any good reason to
alter their policies either. They
have not intended to begin a
large-scale war for the simple
reason that infiltration and
local wars have scared the al
lies and bluffed them into
limiting their reprisals. The
United Nations. moreover, has
demonstrated that its. resolu-
tionS are mere scraps of paper
and that the Soviet Union can
actually supply arms to an ag-
gressor without undergoing any
oStraciSm in that international
body. From the Kremlin view
point, things really look good.
So, why should the Kremlin
leaders change their policies If
they are apparently winning
