Diplomats Believe Little Chance
For War Despite Trend Of Events
WASHINGTON The possibility!
of a third World War is remote,
but a long period of complicated
and frequently nerve-w racking di
plomacy is in prospect, according !
to a consensus of diplomatic
opinion here. j
The recent trend of international'
events has been toward a global;
balance-of-pow cr, superseding the
19th century thesis of a F.uropean
balance-of -power, but powerful eco
nomic and social forces are at work!
to keep international rivalries upon!
a diplomatic rather than combat
plane.
These conclusions of the United
Press correspondents were derived
from informal conversations with
10 experts in the government and
diplomatic corps whose daily work
requires their routine attention to
relations with Soviet Russia. j
An attitude of questioning and
speculation invariably counters
press inquiries concerning the fu
ture course of relations between
the United States and the U.S.S 1!
The most able diplomats do not
rush to conclusions in the matter,
but think that both Washington and
Moscow have been handicapped in
their post-war conduct of illations
by. mutual lack of knowledge and
comprehension.
Despite the polemics of the Paris
peace conference and complaints
that round-table forums are dram
atizing the dilference between the
powers, even the "old school" dip
lomats think that the airing of
problems has had a net salutary
effect. Some think, however, that
notes rather than speeches might
ho a belter method of procedure,
since the terrain of controversy in
particular problems might thus be
