Stalin said he considers the pres ent moment opportune for unifica- tkm of -Germany. He time when the Western powers are planning to sign a peace contract no final decision is possible in mak- with West Germany, in token that jng peace with Germany 'as a whole. The United States, Britain and France have found it impossible to reach any approach toward such to East and West. The Soviet Union, unification that is acceptable both for one thing, has refused to do business with a United Nations commission designated to find out if all-German elections can be held fairly and honestly. , But .the unity theme has a great appeal to Germans, including many in the areas occupied by the three statement, coming on top of Soviet Western Powers. Thus the Stalin approval of the idea of rearming a unified Germany, may serve as the starting point for a concerted attack on the government of Chan cellor Konrad Adenauer. A Germany unified on Moscow terms would create a vacuum in Central Europe despite Soviet claims to the contrary. The Soviet Union, of course, would like to neutralize Western Europe and bog down its building of defense works. Stalin made his statement on Germany in response to questions sent by a group of U.S. newspaper and radio men on March 24. Four days later Adenauer announced that the U. S., British and French foreign ministers would meet with him in May to sign a peace con tract—a way of life with Western Germany. Signing of such a peace contract would formalize the East-West split in Germany, and perhaps prove a permanent block to Soviet plans for Europe. Thus there is a feeling of urgency in Moscow about Ger many, and that is probably one reason Stalin decided to answer the American newsmen’s questionnaire. Stalin also said he considers a third world war no nearer than it was t#o or three year* ago. That is a “welcome mat” for the Inter national Economic Conference op ening in Moscow tomorrow. This conference is intended to build a fire under Western govern ments to turn them away \ from U. S. leadership and toward the East, for business. It offers the bait of money to be made by turn T° increase this lure the USSR , ee for lhe conlributions and jn . terest shown in the work, which is Christian in purpose, he said. USSR must try to convince Western busi nessmen that war is not inevitable nor even likely—and that capital ism and communism can etfist peacefully side by side. Stalin may have had still another reason for giving one- of his in frequent pronouncements to West erners just at this time. It was published less than 24 hours before Gen. Dwight Eisenhower first an nual report on what the North At lantic Treaty Organization has ac complished during his first year as its military commander and what the general believes it still needs to do. The Kremlinites may have hoped to take some of the headline space away from the NATO record. In short, there is no reason to assume that Stalin’s statement is a real move toward peace. Byrnes Happy Over Russell Endorsements Columbia, April 8.—Gov. James F. Byrnes said today he is “grati fied” that so many South Carolina counties have endorsed the presi dential candidacy of Sen. Richard B. Russell. Russell’s candidacy was endorsed outright by 29 of the state’s 46 county conventions Monday. He* re ceived the backing of every con vention which expressed itself on the matter. Some counties adopted a “wait and see” attitude, while still oth ers which did not consider the quesion at all, were expected to fall in line with a move to give Russell statewide endorsement at the Democratic State convention here April 16. Byrnes, who was probably the first to suggest Rus- se41 as a candidate for the Demo cratic presidential nomination, termed the Georgia senator “a great Southerner ,and a great American. ,> Screen- Week!
