ALTO LOANS "Thai Cosl Less" The Morris Plan Bank more about UPPMANN from page one It has, moreover, long been clear what was fundamentally wrong in our post-armistice diplomacy. It is that Mr. Stettinius at the begin ning and Mr. Eyrnes after him— for they have had the same ad visers on the crucial question in Europe—allowed themselves to be distracted and diverted from the primary to the secondary issues. It is easy to see how this happened. Germany was prostrate in defeat: on the other hand the Red Army had overrun Central and Eastern Europe, and the Soviets were pushing into the Mediterranean and the Middle East. What was more natural than to leave Ger many to one side and to sally forth to check the Russians? When I argue that our policy has been mistakenly conceived, I do not mean that it is a mistake to check the Russian expansion. I mean that it was a mistake to think that it could be checked by guerrilla diplomacy in the Bal kans and in the Middle East. If the Joint Chiefs of Staff had dealt with the war as the State Depart ment has dealt with the peace, we might still be fighting costly little campaigns in all the subordinate theaters. I remember well hearing Gen eral Marshall say how, sitting at his desk in Washington, he was bombarded with urgent pleas for more and more troops and more and more supplies from each of his many theater commanders. Each had an excellent case. But if he and Admiral King had yielded, they would have dispersed Ameri can pow’er all over the globe, and would never have been able to con centrate the force that Eisen hower, MacArthur and Nimitz LIMITED QUANTITY WHITE Permanent Finish Organdy Curtains PRISCILLA STYLE 6 95 88 inches Wide. 90 inches long . . * Billowy 6 inch ruffle— We were really fortunate in securing a small quantity of these beautiful permanent finish Organdy curtains — Requires no starch — A finish that gets through launderings. i-----\ Steel Venetian Blinds 23 to 28” x 64” — 6.95 29 to 36” x 64” — 7.50 These attractive Venetian blinds are made of 2” baked enamel slats.

Gen eral Marshall, I believe, used to call his troubles “theateritis,” and recongnizing it as a well known military disease, the Joint Chiefs of Staff stood firm in insisting that our main effort must be con centrated in the main theaters. This was hard on the secondary theaters. But it was strategy and generalship. Now the State Department has fallen into the error * which the Joints Chiefs of Staff saw and re sisted. It nas spent itself, with lit tle to show for its efforts, on Po land, Romania Hungary, Bulgar ian Greece, on Iran, Trieste, Italian colonies, while the main problem, which is Germany, has been neglected. This was an elementary strategical mistake to lead to a diplomatic failure. Not the least of the reasons for attending to Germany first is that we can act more effectively in Germany than we can in the countries which are behind the iron curtain. The most important part of Germany is occupied by the British, and it has always been open to the British, the French, and the Americans to make a settlement—if they agreed among themselves—which would apply to a good two-thirds of Germany, and would act as a powerful lever upon the remainder—the Russian part. There has never been any reason—I mean any Russian rea son—why the three western zones could not be reconstructed on the pattern of a German federal union. All that was needed was to apply in the British and French zones the political principle which General Clay has used so well in the American zone. Nor was there ever any Russian reason why the Ruhr could not have been constituted as one of these federated German states, with special stipulations to meet the French view that officials in the Ruhr dealing with coal and steel shall never be appointed from Berlin. Nor was there any Russian reason why, when these things had been done, a central German administration should not be set up, as agreed to at Pots dam. This would not have been a final settlement of the German prob lem. But it would have been enough of a settlement to put the Americans, the British and the French in an immensely strong position to bargin for a ,full set tlement. It would have united them on a constructive proposal liquidating the artificial division of Germany into four military zones. For the alternative to the four military zones would have been clear: it would have been a German confederation. Without the alternative the zones cannot be abolished. To do so would mean the restoration of a centralized Germany. This should have been the cen tral objective of our diplomatic strategy. Unhappily it has not been treated seriously as any kind of objective. Yet the failure to work for this objective has left Germany, or at least Prussia, where it is today—an area in which the British and the Russians are in contlict over the control of a centralized Germany. It has left Germany without the promise of a good though modest future and has incited all the worst instincts of the Germans to make them bet on getting something magnificent for themselves out of a war be tween Britian and Russia.
