Show D wl eavou vista of W JL 3 policy hinted halite 1 t nation may ay be embarking Em barkin 9 0 on major Peace fare effort H by news analyst and commentator i K washington it was a sizzling day in the capital the town moved slowly like a lazy setter stretching and hunting the he shade even the trees were half asleep the air pushed hard against your brow and cheeks checks the asphalt yielded to ones onos footfalls like brown grasses in a trodden field but we had to attend tho the regular press press and radio conference of the secretary of state nature languished but we knew tho the dispatch room was spluttering splutter ing and sparking in sharp shudders with the news of an anguished america wo we sensed but tinder understand stand quite how was fim em 1 barking on a colossal undertaking 1 we walked down the air cooled corridors of this now state depart ignont ment building which in wartime housed the brass hats hata ot of tho the high command for those working for peace it Is a little depressing to pass those stark murals depleting depicting war at its worst or best which Is probably the sams same thing wo we were still interested in the im of the sta statements temen ts on foreign policy U each ach y statement pulled a little wider the curtain on the the theater ater which 44 was neither a theater of war n nor a theater of I 1 pence peace again and again the questions came in like darts efforts jv lo 10 to I 1 pierce what we all felt was a screen concealing vistas much wider than Haukli Hauk hago ago statements the formal had yet revealed was there a greater plan lying behind this program tor for old aid to stricken countries the program put outlined lined b by secretory secretary marshall at harvard the question was asked although wo we kney that even if 11 the secretary had a vision wider than ours dur s he could not reveal it yet 1 ills his oris answer frank enough under th circumstances and not if there was sortie some further plan behind the ono one already revealed piecemeal ho he wa nofiro leick ng loala jalk about it llo ile did reveal that russia was i pot not outside the pale b 1 amer leas icalas rehabilitation efforts in theory a at least this was sur to some who had studied resident president Tr trumann Tru artar or sharill lq and ben cohens recent statements arid ard yet y t not so oo surprising as we ic recalled called the nature mature of other talks not public which had hinted at larger things la Is this a real effort to achieve a fair calr understanding with russia 1 la Is the diplomatic word words word I 1 lam aw wondering wandering whether those un spoken words of the secretary of kate could possibly describe the im y the task t v which to a envisioned in the tha plans I 1 whick secretary marshall would not talk about t I 1 say abis be because causel 1 I have hava learned a 0 new word which it seems to me might liar bear within wain it a vital a hopeful concept Uke hauptmann in the sunken bell when ho he said tearl all the slad fladness ness all tho the sorrow of the tha world within it th think of the dynamic quality of othir words worda fame riches fair play tills now word of mine which Al marshall arshall might have used had lie ho known it Is peace fare 11 it was used in a paragraph ol of a letter to the editor in the new york times tho writer was A M Me Mo orloo wartime chief of tho the psychological ch branch of the dutch war ar ministry and a member of the alio psychological study group in england this la Is the paragraph in those wartime days when the success or failure of the war was wag at stake psychologists and specialists cia lists in allied fields mobilized every wea weapon pon at their command to wage psychological warfare why cannot we now when the pence peace Is at stake mobil mobilize izo as carefully for psychological peace fare all right there you have it peace fare 11 not simply psychological peace fare now but economic and political and moral peace fare that is what I 1 am hoping hopin g and praying the unspoken plan of secretary hull will ill embody A hard long expensive campaign dut but one launched not against anybody but for everybody a campaign to stop warto war to save humanity I 1 say everybody because marshall pointed out that ho he envisioned ru russia sla as a part of this plan for the economic rehabilitation of europe without this economic rehabilitation there can bo be no rehabilitation of the body politic or the body and soul moral it must be a campaign to 0 o banish fear fear of the lie atomic bomb which wo we possess for the moment tit fear of the far more terrible weapons weapon of destruction that any madman might put to use it Is a campaign to banish the hate bred bied by tear fear A campaign to nourish the body so that bodily thing imay bo be forgotten and man may pursue chiq hl spiritual destiny to ward freedom freedoms mt toward decency de Vency toward a world orld wh where bre the major effort t Is dedication to the common good nothing like this has ever been attempted before nations hays have loaned money for tho the purpose of earning a neat dividend or to wring some political advantage from an impecunious or bankrupt government many fair promises and high sounding ideals have beep been written into covenants signed only to be broken when opportunism dictated a reverse english but hore mra is something now new and I 1 different something rather bright and idealistic has hag been added what we hope isan Is an honest effort to wage to tho the malice of tho the few in tho the spirit of charity toward all it may bo be all eyewash 1 I 1 know ive seen a lot of castles fall but my feeling is that it if wo get tout out of the sc offers sent seat for a moment if we drop the cynic pose and put fare into the national vocabulary we may make it work |
