II even presents constructive
suggestions. No better rea-

peace could be advanced.
But. unfortunately. nobody
trusts the rulers in the Krem-
lin. Their words are not
worth the paper they are
written on. Similar profess

been made again and again
for ten years or more by the
Soviet rulers, only to be
ignored by them in practice.
The Communist chieftains
have meyer made good on
their promises. They have
consistently violated their
pledges.
No peace treaty can be
made now. no disarmament
agreement can be signed.
and no basis for negotiation
exists with the mischievouS

II Is doubtful that Secre-

able TO do more than bring

hover that the threat Of in
ternational communism is as
great In the Far East as in
the rest OF the globe. He in

linking the NATO with the

Time for More Perfect Union

Of the free nations in Western
Europe. We very much need
it now in our common de-
Tense.
But. If We are going to stop
with its military aims: If we
are going TO make NATO a
vehicle Of a constant arma-
ments race with more and
more and bigger and bigger
missiles pointed directly at
Russia at close range from
Europe. then We will. as Mr..
Pearson says. have now
reached the point where two
and only two-great ae-
glomerations OF power face
each other in fear and hos
tility. and the world wonders
what happens"
NATO also must become an
agency for economic aid. It
also must become a closer
union OF the democracies for
an attempt TO meet political
problems. instead Of the Just
barcelona military operation.
Mr.. Pearson envisaged a need
for us and Russia to sit down
for frank. serious and COM
plete exchanges on Such prob
lens as the Middle East and
Germany, and not by any
fiamboyant, dramatic SUM
init" session, but in long me-
gotiations through diplomatic
and political channels.
This could be a good time
for the free nations in West
ern Europe In NATO TO Gre
ate what might be called "a
more perfect union" as a
basis upon which to break
the stalemate with Russia.
This will be the more difficult
because Of the panicky at
mosphere In which the NATO
conference was called to-
gether as an outgrowth OF
the Sputniks: but there is
therefore all the more reason
for calm and caution.
