STALIN DECISION

ON EUROPE AID PLAN AWAITED

London, Junc. 22.

This week-end may bring one of the decisive moments in Europe's tangled history-and the deci- sion lies with Premier Joseph Stalin.

His problem: Shall Russia join Britain and France in planning an economic "one world" for Europe, perhaps at the cost of a slipping Red grip on the middle Europe govern- ments, or shall she cast aside the chance to unite Europe and go her own way in her own politico-economic sphere in the 'East?

Foreign Secretary

Ernest Bevin, practised-in grasping the "breaks" of trade union war- American fare, snatched at Secretary of State George C. Marshall's offer of June 6 to help rebuild Europe. Hastily he called on French Premier Paul Ramadier and French Minister Georges Bidault. In two days they dis patched to Russia a call to join them-and to decide by Monday whether the Soviet Government will come in.
