"You cannot restore Central Europe to 1870 without setting up such strains in the European structure and letting loose such human and spiritual forces, as. pushing beyond frontiers and races, will overwhelm not only you and your guarantees, but the existing order of society. Wilson knew what Clernenceau was after but he thought that the League of Nations would act to right the wrongs of the peace Clomen-ceagot all he could, and the "institutions" he left behind when he died as well as, for a tune, the "order of society in France were, as Keynes predicted, overwhelmed. Perhaps Clernenceau wasn't Carthaginian enough, in his peace. Those who agree may well endorse the Morgenthau plan. In S' ernian Cities Show Results of Allied Might And so Keynes concluded that the "Carthaginian peace is not PRACTICALLY right or possible," and his prediction began to come true almost before the ink on the treaty he was writing about, was dry. I do not know why Secretary Stimson and Secretary Hull oppose the Morgenthau plan. But it may he that they feel criticism of the peace- and , . order." Opposition to the idea of suddenly stopping all manufacturing In Germany is based purely on economic grounds by some observers, by oth ers on political reasons. The latter are not of record but those who discuss the economic aspects of the program are very vocal. They say that economic pressure would crack the program. That it would be inconceivable to suddenly subtract 40 or 50 million people who would be left In Germany from the world consumer market. And, of course, if Germany were allowed to produce nothing but what she could raise from the ground, she would have nothing to sell and therefore no money with which to buy the products of other nations. There Is no altruism behind that reasoning; it Is based on the simple principle of the greatest good for the greatest number. Compared to the Morgenthau plan the ancient method of punishment is mild, it is argued. A man with one tootli missing is still material for the dentist to work on, he can still eat and work and therefore is an asset to any community supporting a purveyor of food and other gadgets. But if you take away his earning capacity your economic activity Is cut down by one unit. Multiply that by 50 millions and it goes a long way to interfering with normal trade. There are, of course, other considerations, which still fall under the head of the practical. Maynard Keynes, the British economist, had a good deal to say on that subject in a book which he wrote on the negotiations which produced the peace treaty after World War I. Keynes was thoroughly familiar with the details of those negotiations because he was secretary to Lloyd George at the time In his book, The Economic Consequences of the Peace" (Harcourt, Brace, 1920 better get a copy if you can find one in print. Keynes describes the attitude in d ' ? ? Third fleet caught a large Japa Navy Avenger Torpedo bombers of Adm. William F. Halsey Jr.s at the same time si inK ire of the most sank ships, and Manila nse merchant fleet napping in bay from burning s lips an an land installations. The attack lasted two days. Photos show the smoke rising ica. But Clernenceau felt (according to Keynes) that "if France could seize, even in part, what Germany was compelled to drop, the inequality of strength between the two rivals for European hegemony might be remedied for many generations." "This is the policy," said Keynes, of an old man, whose most vivid Impressions and most lively imagination are of the past and not the future. He sees the issue in terms of France and Germany, not of humanity and of European civilization struggling forward towards a new Germany Big Factor In Consumer Market 10- - M1; . There appears, however, to be a deference 111 motive between the Moigenlhau - Clernerioeaii projects The Morgi'n'.h.'iii idea appears to be motivated elneily on the idea that punishment will bring about a reform, while Clernenceau frankly, in the language of Keynes, wanted "to Set back the clock and undo what, since 1870, the progress of Germany had accomplished. By loss of territory and other measures her population was to be curtailed; hut chiefly the economic system upon which she depended for her new strength, the vast fabric built upon iron, coal and transport was to be destroyed. So far Messrs. Clemeneeau and Morgenthau seem to see eye to eye. But the secretary of the treasury is not concerned particularly with transferring Germanys economic power to any other country. He certainly doesnt want to transfer it to Amer- practical grounds. To those of us who covered the Quebec conference the news of at least a part of the mission of Mr. Morgenthau at the conference came as a surprise. He was the only member of the cabinet to attend, and discussed his plan for Germany with Roosevelt and Churchill in the presence of Foreign Minister Anthony Eden, who, it is said, looked upon it with favor when Mr. Morgenthau presented it to him earlier in London. At Quebec we were told that we might infer that the secretary of the treasury came to discuss economic matters in his capacity as a member of the Presidents cabinet committee. We were not told that the other two members of the committee who were nut present opposed the Morgenthau plan; Secretary Stimson emphatically, Secretary Hull, at least negatively. At the time we were surprised that Secretary Hull did not come to Quebec. We were more so when we learned what the Morgenthau mission had been. x ' ;t. inf0riTi MUSICAL Labor leader Lewis was the butt of a practical joker in a crowded Someone Washington hotel foyer. on button Roosevelt" a "For pinned he was his back, and Clernenceau Sought To Weaken Germany ly B R I E F S Ci v- .y; At in 1919. 1 altruistic -; approached the which Clernenceau Service, Union Trust Building Washington, I).
