Last week all the Russian Field Marshals met with members of the Politburo, for three days in Odessa. .After- wards, Russia sent Turkey a de- mand that the Montreux treaty the Dardanelles be revised nd be revised only by the Soviet satellites ! 3. The Russian Navy is now con- centrated in the Black Sea ports of Sevastopol and Feodosiya. ‘ RUSSIAN WORK ON ATOM 4. The British Foreign Office and the British General Staff have de- cided that the time for a showdown ' with Russia is at hand. Their in- telligence reports indicate feverish Soviet experiments with the atomic bomb and the cosmic ray. The pre- sence of rocket bombs over Sweden is known to be Russian experimen- tation with radio-controlled rocke eventually calculated to hit Eng- land or perhaps cross the Arctic Circle British scientists know Russians may wind up with the atcmic bomb or even the more deadly cosmic y if the Soviet is given another year to experiment.' The British also know that the United States is not ready to wage a joint Anglo-American war against Rus: but they are convinced that, if Russia and England should | clash, the USA would soon come in on the British side. 5. The British General Staff has moved three crack divisions into, that the munitions of war. The old Skoda works in Czechoslovakia, once used by Hitler, is turning out quantities of arms of an interchangeable type | for use in either the Czech or Red Army. Poland and Yugoslavia also| are manufacturing standardized | Russian arms. The armament race once more is on. 1 These are some of the ominous| | undercurrents which could pull the | world into another war even bemm the wounds of World War II are! healed, even before a peace treaty | is signed. | Some diplomats and military| leaders say that these currents have gone so far that another war is inevitable. In the opinion this is not the cas either soon or later- ed. However, of this observer Another war— an be avert- | it will take the most skiilful diplomacy this nation has ever seen, together with our most forthright tragedy. So far we are getting neither the statesmanship nor the facts. And, though I be accused of be- ing a pessimist, and though I lose readers to the sports columns and the poison mysteries, I intend dur- ing the next week to outline the | backstage cross-currents which are dragging us so near -catastrophe | and, if possible, point to some of ! the ways out.
