COMMENT OF THE DAY
Terms For A Settlement
IF a new four-Power conference is to accomplish anything worth while
BS
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, whole problem of Soviet on the Imperialism, as manifested in various aggressive actions since the war, and on the urgent need for Western self- defence. These actions are beat summarised in the recent British note relating to the Soviet-British pact, and the points made in that noto should form the basis for the agenda of any four-Power conference to which the Western democracies can agree. These points, and the Western position re- garding them, are and should bo: 1. The imbalance between the vast Soviet armies 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. Soviet subjugation and rearmament of Eastern Europe in violation of all war- time agreements and the peace treaties.
