Molotov Lives Up To His Name First, to evaluate the "m" in our equation, it is necessary to take a look which goes back to Paris 1919 and even reveals faint images of Vienna, 1815. There is no question that "m" (standing for Molotov) was the conference at San Francisco in the early period, at least, but there was a vast difference between his operations opera-tions and those of Clemenceau. Clemenceau could and did unloose a bag of traditional diplomatic tricks on Lloyd George and Wilson and soon proved that his white-gloved, gallic hands were quicker than two pairs of anglo-saxon eyes. Clemenceau wanted security for France and eUmination of Germany as a competitor in world industry. Molotov wants security for Russia, Rus-sia, elimination of any danger of political competition from the "capitalistic" "capi-talistic" countries. But he wears no gloves, kid or otherwise. This, perhaps, per-haps, is not because he, personally, is inept in the amenities of diplomatic diplo-matic relations, but rather because be is under orders, with no latitude of compromise whatever unless Stalin grants it And Russia, an outlaw out-law among nations after the Bolshevik Bolshe-vik revolution, has only begun to take its first faltering steps beyond the pale of its own prejudices and preoccupations. And the bear steps furtively, blinded by suspicion, hypersensitive hy-persensitive because of well-justified past doubts and fears. By the second day of the conference confer-ence Molotov had deeply grieved the Latin Americans. When the suave and persuasive Ezequil Padilla, Mexican foreign rninister, in urging the election of Secretary Stettinius as president of the conference remarked re-marked that it was merely following diplomatic procedure and courtesy to elect the representative of the country playing host to the conference, confer-ence, Molotov is said to have replied re-plied that he hoped no one was trying try-ing to give him lessons in diplomatic diplo-matic procedure and as for courtesy this was not a tea party. Molotov is the commissar's "nom-de-guerre." It is an old communist custom to take pseudonyms, e.g. "Stalin," man of steel." Molotov means "hammer." And that is what the benevolent-looking gentleman from Moscow wields, not the rapier of the diplomatist Thus, when he "controlled" the conference, he did it as a man swinging a hammer might the rest had to get out of the way. But hammer swinging is not always successful suc-cessful The rapier wielders in the case I mentioned quickly circumvented circum-vented the issue of the conference presidency by obtaining an agreement agree-ment that there would be four presidents presi-dents as the hammer-swinger demanded de-manded but their powers would all be delegated to Mr. Stettinius to conduct con-duct the business of the conference. Today's Talleyrand has much to learn in the school of soft gloves. And so we come to the delta, the strength of the spirit of the people. As I write these lines within the building where the committee meetings meet-ings take place, the fate of the conference con-ference has not been settled but I am assuming it is about to conclude, having achieved its job which was merely to complete a blue-print for world organization. Its later effects ef-fects cannot yet be assayed. But I can say at this point with absolute assurance that if the blue-print is not produced the peoples of the various va-rious representatives will figuratively figurative-ly fall upon their delegates and tear them limb from limb. If the blueprint blue-print is produced and if the organization organ-ization operates effectively and successfully suc-cessfully the credit goes to the demos the "absent voters" at San Francisco, who had no vote at Vienna Vien-na and didn't know how to use what they had at Paris. And so the task of our mathematician mathema-tician becomes the task of the meta-physicist meta-physicist He must discover the power of the spirit of the people.
