Berlin Issue AvoidobIe
Once, Eisenhower Says

minister Germany when the
country was defeated, Gen.
Eisenhower said, also was
turned down. Gen Eisenhower
writes that he suggested a four
power government over the
country, but President Roose-
velt was apparently committed
with Great Britain and the So
viets, to the occupation of Ger
many by national zones"
While the hindsight of II
years may make some OF the
political decisions taken at that
time appear as unrealistic, Gen.
Eisenhower emphasized that
"our governmental heads were
not blind to the serious po-
tentialities in our dealings with
the Soviets." The United States
and Britain, he writes, did
everything feasible and reason.
able Ito get the Soviets. to &C.
company us on the road leading
toward a world Of law"
Gen Eisenhower recounts the
trials and tribulations he faced
in dealing with the Soviet
leaders from the days of the
war through his years in the
White House. Once again he re-
viewed the military and other
considerations which led him
as the Allied commander-in-

Star Staff Writer n

The Berlin crisis could have
been avoided If a suggestion
made by Gen. Dwight d. Eisen-
hover toward the close Of World
War II had been adopted. the
former President says in an
article in the current issue of
the Saturday Evening Pot.
Gen Eisenhower, giving his
views on the Berlin problem
and calling for the West to re-
main firm" steadfast and
strong" said he proposed that
Berlin be abandoned as the
capital of postwar Germany.
He said he suggested in
stead that a new Capital be
established at the juncture of
the American, British, and So
Wet zones. What he had in
mind, the former President ex-
planned, was something like "a
cantonment capital. much like
one of the great mobilization
camps built in our won coun-
try for the training Of troops"
His proposal, Gen. Eisen-
hover said, brought no pos
tive reaction from our super
iors." An earlier proposal made
during his visit to Washington
before D-Day to avoid estab-
fishing national zones to ad-

Berlin, by the Communists is
"a confession of weakness on
the part of the Soviets; it ac-
knowledges the failure of their
system to command the re-
spect or loyalty Of their own
people. For its purpose is not
to keep us out; 1t to keep their
downrodden, unhappy people
in"
Gen. Eisenhower, calling for
support of his successor in the
White House in dealing with
Berlin and other problems, said
the United States must always
be willing to negotiate by never
enter into bargaining where a
weakness Of principle may be
implied or where freedom may
thereby be, in the slightest de-
gree, diluted" .

chief not to capture Berlin be-
fore the Russian forces reached
the city.
Time and distance of the
Allied forces from Berlin as
against the nearness of the
Soviet armies, Gen Eisenhower
writes, was a major factor.
Cites Prior Agreement
"These circumstances, plus
the fact that by prior political
agreement any territory cap
tured by us within the planned
Soviet Zone would necessarily
be surrendered to the Soviets," p"
Gen. Eisenhower said, lied to
my personal decision to con-
centrate on two other important
objectives."
These were the annihilation
of Hitler's forces and to cap
ture and hold areas outside
