a new four-Power conference is to accomplish anything worth while it must show a willingness to get down to business on the actual issues now agitating the world. These issues hinge not so much on German rearmament, however much the Soviets may wish to keep that question in the foreground, on the whole problem of Soviet imperialism, as manifested in various aggressive actions since the war, and on the urgent need for Western self-

These points, and the Western position re- 'garding them, are and should be: 1: The imbalance between the vast Soviet armics and the Western defen- sive forces, present or proposed-an imbalance which can be cured only by establishing a balance of power which will reassure the world. 2.
