CANADA'S AREA Canada has an ares of 3,006,189 Tough Talk ._ Poor Policy .With Russia gBerlin blockade without too great CASH ONLY TNIJERSCNKIIUIJMDR IWHERE QUALITY ls sU n: I Sale Opens Thursday 9 _A.M.' B! J. M. ROBERTS. Jr. Associated Press News Analyst ‘The Western Allies seem to be moving toward a position which might permit. Russia to lift the loss of face. And that, I was told the other day by s former official of the German Foreign Office who was a wartime member of the anti-Hit- ler underground, is the big hope for a solution. He said the Germans got along best with the Russians when not. accusing them of anything and no being demanding. This was the policy of von Schulenburg, German Ambassador to Moscow who put through the famous i939 friendship pact. when tickllsh issues arose Von Schulenburg attempted to antici- pate the Russians, tolling them "I know Russia would never think of doing so and so. ff anyone did so and so. the Geranan position would be thus and so." It worked frequently. I asked my informant. now a public official and democratic leader in Germany, what the principal Allied fault was in Ber- lin and what could be done. "Too many' threats, he said. "Too much talk about the use of force to break the blockade. mak- ing it impossible for the Russians to back down is it. is for the Al- lies. it would be better, the way things are now. to tell the Rus- sians quietly that the blockade must be lifted within a time of flexible length. and that they could devise their own means of doing it without loss cf face." This may sound naive to those who have to deal with a proud and aggressive post-war Russia. At any rate, what the Allies want now is the lifting of the blockade. ‘they are reconsidering their previous refusal to enter into new four-power discussions of general Gannon problems They didn't want any more delay in their plans (or incorporating Western Germany into the Econ~ olnic Recovery Program. But it seams to be boiling down now to the prospect that, if Russia will lift the blockade. she can have _t.he conference she has been de- squara miles. e mending. Russia. rnlcss she ls ‘actually pressing for ‘s. showdown notmoan then proclaim u) the Ggj-mgn People that she has won a. fight to make the Allies reconsider the dlsmembermcnt od Germany.‘ That's something, apparentlyfllaat the Allies will Just have to lake, relying upon European intellig- ence properly to evaiute the sit- ustion. But if it will lift the blockade it will remove. at least for a little time, the persistent fear of a. fat- al incident. Whenever in history two coun- tries have become as crossed-u] as the United States and Russia, whenever any country hasbecon-rl dedicated to s. fanatical belief in 11$ 565010? to conquer the world. almost always it has led to war. The point of the current sit- ua-tion is that as long as yo: haven't got war you haven't got war. And Just for that long doe! the possibility exist that problems which now seem insurmountable can be dissolved in changing con- ditions-cven in changes of heart.
