But new troubles are Ioom-
ing for the French Premier.
The failure Of France tosbe in
truth q world power has Gre
ated q vacuum in Europe. Only
the artificial situation created
by the occupation Of Germany
has kept that nation from in
evitably filling the vacuum
And recent developments indi-.
cate that Germany is about
to emerge from her artificial
confinement.
Frenc h nationalist, sup
ported by the Communists and
by the vast majority Of the
French people. have done
their utmost to block this re-
surgence of Germany as d
world power. The struggle Of
the free world against Com
munist aggression has made
but little impression on the
average Frenchman. Even the
reversal In the traditional
American aloofnesS from Eu-
ropean political affairs has
left the French largely unim-
pressed.
American and British lead
ers have now openly recog-
nized that Germany has earned
her right to return to the
council of world powers. She
has staged an unbelievable
comeback from the disaster Of
World War II, and the Bonn
regime, propaganda to the
contrary Notwithstanding, is as
genuine a democracy as can
be found anywhere in the
world.
Mr.. Mendes-France, after
the Indo- China crisis has been
somehow solved" through his
efforts at Geneva, may soon be
called upon to make his own
"agonizing reappraisap Of the
French role In the world. He
will have to face the reality of
accepting resurgent Germany
as at least an equal, knowing
that after a short period Of
such equality Germany's will
be the most important voice
on the continent of Europe.
The question now being
asked in Washington is
whether, after his realistic
action in bowling to the in
evitable in Indo- China, Mr..
Mendes-France will have the
craftsmanship to accept Ger
many in her natural role as a
world power in the family of
free nations.

The switch from Mr.. Semye-

around the corner. If they put

From Love to Hate With Ease Expected of Loyo Americans

Nonsense. Whatever gave

Or maybe it's my heart. I don't

at least, as easily as a good,

Man and boy, I've done a lot of

What brings this up?"

I was fully grown I found ] was

gallantry and chivalry of the
Southern soldiers, who hadn't
been bad, but only mistaken.
That was all right with. me.
There was no pleasure in hat
Ing the Southerners.
Then there came the war
with Spain, when we had to
hate the Spaniards because Of
their cruelty to the poor little
CubanS. and we hated them
plenty. Kept right on doing
it even after we'd licked them.
1t was a long time before we
would admit there were both
bad and good Spaniards. Most
of us finally got the idea when
Franco, with the help Of Mus
solini and Hitler, overthrow the
properly elected Spanish gov
eminent. So we sort of set
tied our hate on Franco. But
now we are asked to forget
any such feeling because he is
letting us build air bases in
Spain from which to fight the
Russians. He's also letting us
lend him money.
Then there was the Boer

The defeat in Indo- China,
particularly the Diem Bien Phu

Mr.. Mendes-France decided
there was no course open for
France other than to dis

France Former World Power
.MendesFronce Viii Have to Foce Reality of Accepting
Resurgent Germany as an Equal Among Powers

There is no more harassed
man In the political world
today than French Premier
Pierre ndes-France. A vigor-
GUS nationalist, he has accepted
his heavy responsibilities at a
time when his country has
fallen to its lowest ebb in do
nestle and international af-
fairs.
France today is prosperous
economically. She is better
of, thanks to her natural
wealth and the billions of
American aid received since
World War II, than she was
III the years Immediately pre-.
ceding the war.
Unfortunately, little Of her
economic well-being perco-
1ates through to the millions
Of industrial and white collar
workers. Hence the chronic
political instability which rem
ders the life spans Of her
governments shorter than any
where in the world.
In international affairs
France has ceased to be a
world power. In the sense of
strength, certainly, she has
lost that role since her sur
render to the Nazi invaders in
1910. Although her wealth
and cultural accomplishments
remain as high as ever, her
role in world affairs is no
longer that of an arbiter. Out
OF regard for her past, and
over the opposition of Josef

and q portion Of defeated Ger

after Mr.. Roosevelt induced

Because of disrupting Com
munist inroads, the selfish
ness and pettifoggery of her
politicians, and the general
