The Sovlet press published on Friday an off- cial announcement apparently intended to inform the United States that Russia will present pro- posals at the Japanese Peace Treaty conference in spite of the American stipulations to the contrary.

COMMENT OF THE DAY

India, The Key Factor
THE simple formula for counter.
THE United States has worked, out
ing the anticipated Soviet campaign to sabotage the Japanese peace treaty at San Francisco. America has given notice that no alteration to the second and final draft will be permitted; that those nations' who send representa- tives to San Francisco next month are expected to do so only if they intend to put their signature to the treaty. It is a neat manoeuvre and may well prove to be one of history's most momentous fait accompli. But it is un- likely that the move will prevent Russia from carrying out a propagan- da offensive at San Francisco. The : United States can rule out of order any tampering with the draft treaty, but she can hardly apply an overall gag to discussion of the proposed pact. And the Russians, it is all too well known, possess a remarkable faculty for polemica. Russia's aim, it is believed, is to attend the conference with the express purpose of driving 籍 wedge between, the Western Powers and their present friends in Asia; to persuade, if she can, countries such as India, Pakistan, Burma, Iri- donesia and the Philippines, who are far from satisfied with the terms of the treaty, to reject the United States draft, Moreover, it has to be admit ted, the Russlans will start off in a. good "debating "position""""" and by ex- pressing sympathy with India's objec tions to the treaty, may conceivably Influence that country from becoming a signatory. The success or relative fallure of the San Francisco con- ference may, indeed, finally reside in- what Indin decidos to do. The biggest. reverse the Soviets could suffer would bo for India to make an immediate announcement that she intends to sign the draft treaty. The iganda
value of the Soviet criticism at the forthcoming conference would auto- matically lose importance. For, it is fair to anticipate that if India formal- ly approves the treaty, her neighbours. Pakistan and Burma will do likewise, and this bloc in turn would have decisive influence on Indonesia. It has been suggested that London is in- clined to discount India as a vital. factor at the San Francisco conference. It is true, of course, that her negative vote would not, in itself, prevent u general acceptance of the draft treaty. But to have India refuse to be asso- ciated with the proposed pact would bolater considerably the position of the Communists who are antagonis tle to the treaty purely on political grounds. Moreover, failure to obtain. the signature of countries such as India, Pakistan, Burma and Indonesia would, from Japan's point of view, make the treaty, extremely ineffective. The Japanese naturally like the terms of the treaty because they are generous in overy respect, but if "Japan is in fact to achieve full sovereignty and a due place among the nations of the world, it is necessary that she should possess a proper status with Asia generally. This she will be denied if many of the more important nations in the East and in Southeast Asia refuse to be associated with the projected · treaty.' -India's signature is a key factor, and one most assuredly appreciated by the Russians. The próbabilities are that the Soviet dologates will; concentrate everything they possess in order to keep India from becoming in signatory.. If they succeed it will rate as knother- diplomatic victory for the Iron Chur- tainge
