Stalin's"PeaceOffensive"FellFlat

IfStalinthoughtthatthenonCommunistworldwouldhailhis recentlyreporteddesiretomeet PresidentTrumansoastodiscussapeacefulsettlementwith himassymbolicalofasortof "newlook"forinternationalrelationsthatatornworldwould, asaresult,assume,hewasdisappointedHegainedtothis extent,thathecannoworderhis propagandamachinetoramit hometothepeopleoftheSoviet UnionandwithintheIronCurtainthatCapitalistAmericahad turneddownhisoffer.

Longago,however,Stalinlet itbeknownthattheCommunistintentionwastouseRussiaas abaseforworldRevolutionin thesewords:"Thegoalistoconsolidatethedictatorshipofthe proletariatinonecountry,using itasabasefortheoverthrowof imperialisminallcountries."

Inlayingthisdownas axiomatic,Stalinwasmerelyfol_ lowingLenin,thatHigh-Priestof Communism,who,shortlyafter seizingpowerin1917,wasasked whathethoughtofRussia.His replywas:"TohellwithRussia itisameans itisnot Russiawewant itisWorld Revolution."

Ifthesewordsofthehardheadedfanatic,whosemummified remainsstillinspirethePolitburofromtheglasscaseinwhich heliesentombedintheRed SquareinMoscow,wereuttered 39yearsago,theywouldhave beenmuchnearerthemark-becauseLenin'seffortsatachieving WorldRevolutionintheearly daysofBolshevismwereboth fourorfiveyearsago,insteadof punyandclumsycomparedwith hissuccessor.

Lenin,too,wouldbemorethan satisfiedwiththeresultsofhis advicetohisfollowerswhenthey wereembarkingonthemission ofWorldRevolution:"Inyour drivetocommunisetheworld," hesaidtothem,"don'tworry toomuchaboutcapitalistopposition.Thestupidityofthecapi- talistswillhelpyouinyour work."

Onewouldthinkthatthemaster-mindwaswhisperinginStalin'searasthelatteralternatelythreatened,cajoledandfooled theWesternPowersatTeheran, YaltaandPotsdam-ashecallouslyannexedtheBalticStates, Poland,Roumania,Hungary, Bulgaria,Yugoslavia,Albania, andCzechoslovakia-evenashe nowstandspoised,dazzledby thewealthandoiloftheMiddle East.°thetemptingwarmwaters oftheEasternMediterranean, andthestrategicimportanceof theSuezCanal-ashecontemplatestheeasewithwhichNorth_ ernKorea.Manchuria,theKuriles,andNorthChinahavefailenunderhissway,andtheuntoldwealththatliessouthof theYangtzeasfarasSingapore andtheDutchEastIndies.Ycs -thecourseofthisman'smarch-thisman,who,onoccasions hasactuallylecturedtheworld on"reenactforSovereignandindependentnations"-isliterally strewnwiththecorpsesofonce freeandSovereigncountries.

Perhapsbeforetakingthe finalplungeStalinwouldlike timetodigestthisgargantuan feast-perhapsheisuneasythat thestupidcapitalistsareconstructinganAtlanticPact-uneasy,too,thattheMarshallPlan continuestofunction-thatthe WesternPowersarestillinBer lin,andintendtoremainthere. Itisnotdifficulttoreadthe mindofamanwhocanmake andbreakPactsandSolemn Treatiesatwill,butthebest comment-becauseitwasdevoid

ofdiplomaticformality-came fromtheAmericanFederation ofLabour,whichdescribed Stalin'sdesiretomeetPresident Trumanas"anunmitigated sham,designedtodeceivethe people" Stalin'sexpresseddesirefora meetingwithPresidentTruman canonlybeexaminedinthemannerinwhichpreviouspromises bytheSovietStatewerekeptinthelongrecordoftheacts andmanifestationsoftheSoviet Governmentandtheirimpacton WorldPeaceInnoinstance couldtheyinspireconfidence.

FactsOfThePower Divorce

"Sir,-Iwasreadinginthe paperofafilmstarwhoisa RomanCatholic,andhasbeen twicedivorced,andisgetting marriedagain.Whathaveyou gottosayaboutthat?"

A.:MrsMiller,Ihavegot nothinggoodtosayofthestandardofmoralitypractisedby thosewhomthenewspaperiand thescreenputbeforeusas models.Thefactsofthiscase arcasfollows:Mr.TyronePower, aCatholic,wentthroughaform ofmarriageatonetimewitha filmactress,Annabelle,whowas alsoaCatholic.Theirmarriagebeforeacivilregistrarwas nomarriageinthesightofGod, forthereasonthattheywere bothCatholicsandalsobecsuse Annabellehappenedtobealreadyvalidlymarriedandher husbandwasstillliving.Their union,therefore,wasmostirregularandsinful.

TyronePower,seeingthathis marriagetoAnnabellewasno marriage,appliedforadivorceto savehimselffrombeingcharged withbigamybytheState.He wishedtomarryMissLinda Christian,whowasalsoaCatholic.AsTyronePowerwasnever alidlymarried,hewasperfectly freetocontractmatrimonywith MissChristian,WhentheVicariateinRomehadverycareful enquiriesmade,thesefactswere

ShouldMr.Powerduringthe lifetimeofhispresentwifemake furthermatrimonialventures, hecouldnotvalidlymarryagain, evenifheweretodivorceher. Youmustsee,Mrs.Miller,that thereisabigdifferencebetween divorcingonetowhomyouare notreallymarriedanddivorcing onewhoreallyisyourwife.
