Trouble Ahead If U.S. Refuses To Ratify Italian Peace Treaty

Washington, May 6.

General George C. Marshall, Secretary of State, warned today that if the United States fails to ratify the Italian pence treaty the whole world situation will begin to dissolve. He said: "We will have to begin again what we did in 1920" (reject the League of Nations).

:

General Marshall was testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which was holding hearings on the Italian, Bulgarian, Rumanian and Hungarian pacts prior to their debate and hoped for ratification by the 题 two-thirds

Senate. Each treaty must be ratified by

majority, and the trend of hearings before the Committee

has shown that there is considerable possibility that the -Italian treaty may not gain a sufficient margin.

General. Marshall declared: "It would be a grave error to start to back-track now. The world will lose all confidence in our leadership. To' me,

as Secretary of State, it would be most serious if we now failed to go through with it. It would be a course wrought with most The dangerous consequences.

presumption of those who op pose the Italian treaty is that we can dictate new terms. I do not think we can or should."

General Marshall stressed that his experience in negotiations in Moscow had made even more caphatle his belief that the treaties should be ratified as quickly na possible.

He rend to the Committee a letter in which President Truman declared that prompt ratification treatles was "vital to our foreign policy."
