ALLIES SEEKING RUSS COOPERATION IN EUROPE REDS WOULD AID MAPPING PLANS * POSTWAR ERA Powers Already At Work in Mediter ranean Area By AL JEDLICKA Slow!.' but surely the I’nited States, bleat Brit ain and Russia seem to be moving toward an under standing o postwar affairs. International polities are always among the great mysteries of the world, and up to several months ago, the relations between the U. S. and Britain and Russia were no exception. But through all of the diplomat ie jockeying, the maneuvering fm advanta ges by both sides, the situ ation has begun to clear, and from all appearances, the three great United Na tions powers are now in agreement on the principles for governing Europe after the war. To emphasize the closer rela tions existing between the l.’. S. (treat Britain a ml Russia, the foreign ministers of the three countries are scheduled to get together in Moscow for conferen ces looking toward the future of Europe. Secretary of State Cordell Hull 's to represent the l . S. at the Moscow meeting. Anthony Eden will head th British dele gation and V. Molotov will speak for Russia. According to reports Hull will he accompanied bv the new 1'. . Ambassador to the So Viet, W. Averill llarriman. ban ker and business man. The Moscow conference will go down as a liistot ical event,, and its decisions which must su rely create a new older ill Ell tope, may well have their effect on the l’. S. and Britain. During recent months. the Russians have laid claims to the Baltic states of Estonia. Latvia and Lithuania and parts of Po land. Rumania and Finland. Be sides they have, revealed inten tions of establishing a military "protectorate over Czech* AMo Vukia and the Balkans As a further complication the Russians have openly declared that they will treat with a "free Itlermany" that rids itself of Hit ler and the .Nazi party. In tins respect Russia would agree to the maintenance of the Herman •army, under Communist control. |. Since Russia’s announced in tentions fly in the face of the 1 Four Freedoms, the l-. S. and I Britain are reported to have , drawn an alternate proposal, un der which they would join in ' guaranteeing the peace -of Eu rope and thus remove Russia's pretended need for annexing of certin territories to guard against possible future aggression. In this respect the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Fullbright resolution. pledging the 1’ S. to cooperate in the maintenance of future world peace by participating in any, international machinery design ed for the objective. Although the Senate tabled the Fullbright resolution it was to have written one of its own, much along the same lines. In the writing of any resolu tion, Senator Arthur Vanden burg (Mich.) has insited that the Senate incorporate a clause stat ing that the U. S. maintain its independence in deciding on whether or not it should partici pate in any particular measure designed to preserve peace or stabilize a situation. Such inde pendence in international affairs featured national Rehuhlicun party's position as stated recent ly at life celebrated Mackinac meeting But while the world awaits the result of the Moscow conference the I'nited States, (ireat Britain and Russia already have set the stage for cooperation in the Med iterranean area of Europe. Representatives of the three powers were to sit down in algi ers, .North Africa, to discuss all military and political develop moots leading out of the Medi terranean war. Also participat ing- in the conference will he the "Free French' whom the Russi ans have fully recognized as the legitimate representatives of Inclusion of the Russians on the committee and their close relations with the Free French government. will tend to pro mote the Reds' influence in Wes tern Europe, 'where France and England formerly hold sway. While F. So British and Rus sian relations are crystallizing, however, this country is going ' ahead with preparations for its part it ipation in the rehabilitation and reconstruction of Europe. Along with 4»real Britain, the 1 S. has taken the lead in pro uniting a I'nited Nations reliel and restoration program, based on lines of the old League of Na I lions. All of the 14 United Na tions will have a voice ill the program, hut actual operations I will lie eiUTied on by an execu tive committee consisting of tile U.
