ALBERT JACOBS
Proprietor
Washington, March 19.-;-A negoti
ated peace between Great Britain
and an honorable non-Nazi regime in
Germany is the definite aim of the
American government in the Euro
pean conflict, it was learned on high
authority today.
The first objective of this goal, it
was said, is to enable Great Britmn
to hold out against Germany; tire
second objective is to bring about
the defeat of Hitlerfand the Nazi re
gime; and the third objective is to
encourage a negotiated peace be
tween Britain and an honorable and
preferably democratic government in
Germany. j
Just how the defeat of Hitler is to!
be brought about, and the extent to
which President Roosevelt is pre-1
pared to go to bring it about, is ai
question on which there is consider-1
able difference of opinion in official [
quarters in Washington. i
High American diplomatic quarters!
are hopeful that with the aid of,
American war supplies. Great Brit
ain will be able tp hold out against
Germany. These quarters do not be- ■
lieve Great Britain alone can defeat I
Germany. But they profess to believe j
that if Britain is able to hold out for
another year or two, the German j
people will realize the British cannot!
be defeated and will by that time bel
so dissatisfied with Hitler and hisj
Nazis that they will turn them outi
in favor of a non-Nazi military gov
ernment that will be in a position to
seek an honorable compromise peace
with Great Britain.
As to what President Roosevelt
plans to do if it should appear that
Great Britaih is not going to be able
to hold out, or if the Nazis show no
signs of cracking in a year or two,
is a hypothesis on which high gov
ernment officials are reluctant to
venture a prediftion, at least to re
porters.
On the point blank question of
whether the United States is likely
to resort to the use of convoys if
German submarines and warplanes
seriously interfere with the shipment
of American" supplies to Britain, au
thoritative quarters are vague. The
answer is that the British at present
believe they can copo with the Ger
man submarine and aerial menace,
and there is no immediate^ intention
on the part of this government to
convoy supplies to Britain.
If it should develop that the Brit
ish are unable to copo with the sub
marine menace, and Britain is in
danger of going under for lack of
supplies, that may, it was said, raise
another question. In this connection,
authoritative quarters emphasized
the American government considers
it vital to the defense of this country
to prevent the British fleet from
falling into the hands of an u^riend-
ly F>ower.
Furthermore, President Roosevelt
is now considered by those close to
him to be determined, if possible, to
prevent Nazi Germany from winning
the war, and hopieful that it can be
done without the United States ac
tually becoming involved in the con
flict.

The belief expressed in American
diplomatic quarters that the Nazis
may crack up in a year or two if
Britain manages to hold out is not
shared in high military and naval
circles here. It is regarded as Wish
ful thinking. High ranking American
military experts do not believe the
Nazis can be forced out of power un
til Germany has suffered severe mil
itary reverses. They do not believe |
Great Britein can inflict those re-1
verses on Germany without* the helpj
of an American army. Furthermore,
they believe that if Britain manages
to hold out this year, the British gov
ernment will be asking for an Amer
ican army next year.
Those in the best position to know
believe that if and when the request
comes, it will be in the form of a
suggestion that American forces be
sent to England to take over the de
fense of the British Isles so that the
main body of the British army can
be released for an offensive on the
European continent. Thus, the open
ing wedge for the dispatch of another
AEF to Europe might be based .on
the assertion that the American
troops would not be called upon to
take the offensive but merely to de
fend Britain while the British army
tackled Hitler’s forces on the conti
nent. What would be required of the
American forces in England if the
British proved no match for the
German army on the continent is a
matter which American military ex
perts would prefer to leave to the
imagination.
