THAT WAS THE whole story. The Nizam and hi small, compact Moslem court would not agree to follow the other Indian princely state in acceding to the Dominion of India which was established last year. The Nizam, often called the richest man in the world, and the only surviving heir of the great Mogul empire, wanted to rule an independent hyderabad.. Whether he could have succeeded in doing that, even II the dominion government had not opened hostilities against him, is questionable, Hyderabad is completely landlocked and has no access to the sea except by courtesy of the states surrounding It All of Its Imports and exports, therefore, must pass through India. WHILE HYDERABAD might state, (ess Us independence SI chances are that the economic and political conditions of actual Independence never could be achieved. Can Indias invasion of Hyderabad be justified? Not too easily, U at alL It was not a matter of sending a police force into the state to quell interna) disorders.

Their purpose for so doing was more obscure. THE RUSSIANS want full control that as their imof Berlin, mediate objective. Ultimately they want to force Americas occupation troops completely out of Germany, after which Russia could take over the great German industrial potenvalutial, including able Ruhr section. However, there might be stiff another reason for this display of Soviet diplomatic aggression which was planned almost a year ago to erupt this fall The Russians might be trying to harass the western nations to tho point where the entire Berlin issue will be dumped in the lap of the United Nations. Once the crisis comes under U. N. Jurisdiction the Kill Russians might plan to use tho inevitable squabble as a pretext for resigning from the world organization and taking their satellite states with them. THE EA8T-WES- T split into two opposing power spheres then would be complete. Moreover, the U. N. itself probably would be reduced to total impotency in guiding international affairs. And the question of whether the Soviet Union is entertaining motives like these might be answered by the end of the year.
