One member believ that as a result of these consultations Britain stands in danger of becoming a mere “American airc rier off the coast of Europe.” Another declares that behind the plan for standardization there is already in existence a secret military pact between the two countries. O S Alaska 30 per month; 15.00 « rates in advance ate Department has now made a declaration of policy which puts this matter in perspective. There has been no secret military pact. There will be none. It is not the policy of the United States to enter into alliance with other individual nations. “Commitmer of the United States are to the United Nations,” Such consultations as have taken place with Britain on the subject of a standardization of equipment are a natural and logical consequence of intensive wartime effort: in this same direction—efforts undertaken when con- siderations of economy ni the use of available resources were of the utmost importance—and the same con- siderations of economy still apply No “pact” is called for, in matters of this kind No threat of any kind to any other nation is intended or implied. It is simply an obvious fact, the truth of which has been demonstrated in two vast destructive wars, that Britain and the United States are like- minded democratic nations whose interests overlap and interlock at a hundred different points. From o point of view it is as proper as it is inevitable that American military pol hould be based upon that premise. Frem the British point of view we should think that-people who have waited in agonizing sus- vense for American aid d 18 the ¢ E of two great wars, and then found that aid, when at forthcaming, delayed and crippled by lack of jus standardization as is now under consideration, would find the present consultations reassuring rather than disturbing wspapers, 1411 ni the \lemn to Moscow (Cincinnati Enqu The incident at Dairen is an unfortunately timed commentary upon the practical asoects of Soviet policy afield—unfortunately because it comes on the heels of evidence of increased Russian friendship, or at least civility, in the higher level of diplomac; We don't know whether the ordering of a U. S. Navy ship from the port of Dairen on a 20-minute ultimatum represents a well-calculated gesture on the part of the Soviet or not. Probably not, although it doubtless is in keeping with the overall picture of Russian “toughness” in the Manchurian sphere. We find it rather difficult to believe that a Soviet military cemmander in charge of so important a holding as Da 1 would act in that matter against an American v al group unless he fairly well knew where he stood with Moscow, and that such sternness would not he punished. We say that even in the expectation that the incident will ultimately be explained as a bit of overzealousness on the part of the commander. Overzealousness is not unknown among Russian military commanders and personnel, of course.
