CONSTANTINE BROWN
Popular Discomfort Due to Economic
Crises Has No Effect on Dictotors

What makes the USSR tick
and how sincere are its pres
ent so-called peace advances?
Nobody in Washington. from
the President down, can give
more than a vague and unsub-
stantiated guess to these ques-
tionS.
The frequently spread re-
ports that the economic situa-
ton in the SovietS has become
very bad because most OF the
productive capacity of the
country is devoted principally
to military preparedness holds
no water. The economic sit
uation has been perennially
bad in Russia. But that never
gave grounds for real concern
to the rulers, be they the Gar
ist autocrats or the Bolshevik
dictators. The Russian masses
never received real considera-
tion from their rulers and have
never been free, in our sense
of the word, throughout the
long history of that country.
Crop failures, for instance,
have caused hunger and star
vation in which hundreds of
thousands perished But that
did not worry their dictators.
The population was always so
large that death by starvation
did not disturb the handful of
men who ruled that vast en-
pire. If peoples were driven to
desperation, the loyal troops
and secret police of the Cars
or the Communists moved the
"rebels" down.
The rumors that at present
economic crises are worrying
the Kremlin are believed by
the American people because
we are accustomed to a life
which is totally unknown in
the USSR, where not only
automobiles, electric imple-
ments, but also bathroom ia
cilities are still considered
luxuries enjoyed by relatively
few. Thus the pressure from
the masses on the ruling
classes for a better life is not
likely to have caused a change
of heart among the men in
the Kremlin. Popular discon-
tent is not handled by i'm
provements in the way of life
but by machine guns or a
long time in labor camps
whence few people return.
If there has been indeed
something more than a tenn
porary tactical reversal of
Moscow's policies, the reason
must be found in the Kremlin
itself. The covered-up strug-
gle for power is believed by
many observers to continue
since Stalin's death. So far as
can be gathered now, no man
of the late dictator's stature
has emerged yet. The trium-
virate which took over last

All Is Not Secure in Germany

there need be no fears about
the continuity of the policies
of the majority coalition Of
today. It is not men of leader
ship who are lacking but a
deeper understanding by more
people that they must not lis
ten to demagogic politicians
who would mislead them.
The newspapers are doing a
good job of keeping the people
informed, but the radio is
dominated by left-wing COM
mentators. Television has not
yet become a political factor.
1t is the potential harm that
can be done by selfish use of
the issue of unif1cation of
West and East Germany that
is most to be feared.
So far as the East Germans
are concerned, there is every
indication that they distrust
communism and hate their
oppressors. But there are
some naive men among the
West Germans who think the
Soviets can be trusted and
that the overtures to Tito and
the signing of the Austrian
treaty were evidences of weak
ness in the Kremlin's hitherto
hostile attitude toward the
West. Nobody in the Govern
ment here, however, is ready
to rely on that view in shap-
ing public policy. Instead.
there is a growing awareness
that the future of the cold war
may prove even more danger
GUS than in the past.
AS for a choice between a
reunited Germany that must
take orders from Moscow and
a continuance of an independ-
ent West Germany. with the
strong support of the Western
military and economic mech
anism. the latter would be
preferred. There would be a
feeling of resignation as the
people accepted the necessity
of a further wait before uni
fication could come. For un-
derneath it all here, as else
where. the feeling is growing
there will be no real security in
Europe through paper treaties
signed by gangsters in Moscow
and that all democracies will
be safe only when a free gov
ernment emerges in Soviet
Russia.

Perhaps His Reluctance to Run Is Wise,
Many Who Openly Sought Office Lost

held it from an impressive list
of men who sought it early
and late, frankly and openly,
in and out of presidential elec-
ton years.
Recent annals suggest the
names of the late Senator
Taft, Thomas E. Dewey, the
late Wendell Willkie in his
second try, Harold Stassen and
Senator Kefauver. Mr.. Willkie
was relatively unknown when
he achieved a nomination in
1910. Gov. Dewey began run
ming when only district attor-
ney of New York County and
by technical brilliance got two
nominations but they did him
no good.
Many reasons and circum-
stances could, of course, be
cited for the failures of these
men. But they stand out as
candidates the whole country
recognized as aggressive aspir-
ants for the presidency and
they didn't make it. They
could hardly be said to be in
ferior to others who have held
the Office.
Some politicians believe the
country becomes contemptu-

A group of influential Dem
ocrats were bending their ell
bows at a Georgetown garden
party when word came that
Adlai Stevenson was home
from Africa but still saying he
hadn't made up his mind
whether to run for President
again.
"Oh no. not that" they
chorused. I'VE can't live

Maybe they can't, but they
will. A majority of Democrats
think they can do better with
Mr.. Stevenson than with any

him what he is reluctant to do

Paper Treaties With Red Dictotors
Will Not Bring Peace to Europe

BONN, May 19.-After sew
eral days of talks with cabinet
members, legislators of various
political parties, and veteran
newsmen who know Germany
intimately, this correspondent
cannot but feel that it is a
thin reed on which the secu-
rity of the West rests now
adays.
For, although with the best
intentions in the world the
government spokesmen here
sincerely say that Gernlany's
future lies with the West-a
feeling privately expressed even
by opposition leaders-an un-
dercurrent Of anxiety is never
theless evident.
Deep-seated convictions con-
cerning the great value of
democracy and an awareness
of the dangers of a resurgent
militarism crop up in all con-
versations. The big unknown
quantity is in the question:
What do a people do with the
vote when they are in the
midst of an economic depres-
sion?" The answer is that
they turn to almost anybody
and any policy that seems to
hold out hope for an improved
economic status.
One leader in the lower
house of Germany's national
Parliament philosophical a bit
to me on what Chancellor
Bruning might well have done
in 1882 when he faced 6 mil
lion unemployed and 6 million
Communists. His comment
was that, Even if it was con-
trary to previous orthodox pol
icy, he should have done
something for the people, and
this might have prevented the
rise of Hitler"
So it is the economic situa-
ton everywhere which holds
the key to the future course of
political parties. Such are the
ambitions of political leaders
that they are not reluctant to
use an international issue of
the highest sensitivity and
twist it to suit their political
aims. This presuppoSes, OF

year with Lavrenti Beria as
the strong man was short
lived, and so was Beria. The
pudgy Malenkov proved himself
a colorless individual who was
removed from leadership with
out the necessity. because Of
his insignificance. of being
either killed or exiled. Nobody
quite knows at present who is
the real "Mr. Bolshevik" in
the Soviet Union. There seems
to be a sort of directorate, as
existed in France after the
1889 revolution. Such a direc-
torate cannot continue for
long, particularly when it ap-
pears to be half military and
half civilian. The two don't
mix politically better than wa
ter and oil. Is it the political
Marshal Bulganin, who bears
the title of Prime Minister of
the USSR, who has the final
word, or is it Mr.. Nikita
Khrushchev, the secretary gen.
eral of the Communist Party?
It is recalled that until the
outbreak of World War II, Jo-
seph Stain held no other title
than secretary general" Yet
he was the top man, and Mr..
Molotov, the Prime Minister,
was nothing but a figurehead,
1t is conceivable, according
to our Russian affairs experts,
that an invisible battle may be
going on at this time between
the military and the civilians of
the Soviet directorate. Ameri-
cans who have come in con-
tact with Marshals Bulganin
and Voroshilov say that neith-
er has the stuff that makes
dictators. They are both good
executives who are able to
carry out orders from the boss.
The men to watch in the mill
tary ranks, they say, are Mar
shals Zhukov and Konev. Both
are strong and determined. Ko-
nev was chief of staff to Zhukov
during the last phases of
World War II and, according
to American and British in
telligence, each had no use for
the other. Until recently Ko-
nev played second fiddle to

was given-not by his immedi-

This promotion of Zhukov's
rival is attributed to- Mr..

The Philadelphia story:
Thacher Longstreth, the
Citizens for Eisenhower alum
nus who was helped by the
Republican National Com
mittee, easily won the G. o. P.
nomination for Mayor Of
Phila phia. Republicans
here believe he will make a
vigorous and effective CAM
paign and for the record say
he will win. OFF the record they
argue that at least he will
instill new life in the tired
Pennsylvania organization and
help put it in the Republican
column next year.
Democrats answer that their
experienced mayoral nominee,
Richardson Dilworth, the pres
ent district attorney, is the
odds-on favorite. They say
they will get more and better
work from their own organiza-
ton as a result of the Long
streth challenge. They expect
to exploit the fact that Wash
ington interfered to secure
him the nomination.
The Philadelphia voters won
because both candidates for
Mayor represent the modern,
independent, reform spirit in
city affairs. The rest Of the
states are mostly machine,
however.
