With all the trouble Malenkov's dictatorship now has on its hands in the Soviet Union and in the satellite countries, the suggestion of imminent war with the United States undoubtedly would cause shudders and convulsions in the Kremlin. the full effects of the mysterious Beria purge alone may not be known for years.

The United States should assert its moral leadership by refusing to associate, in a pretended peace organization, with the Soviet Union, the worst menace in history to the peace and security of mankind. We should withdraw from the U.N. and break off diplomatic relations with the communist countries. Dr. Korowicz told the Un-American Activities Committee that the Communists use the U.N. only as a forum for their poisonous propaganda, by which they further their plans for world conquest. "The greatest defeat short of war for the Communists would be the loss of diplomatic relations with the west," Dr. Korowicz said. He is indubitably right. We should treat them as moral outcasts. It is an insult to the intelligence of our people to tell them that it may be possible to negotiate dependable agreements with these international public enemies. Despite the examples of Finland, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Stalin's cynical nonagression pact with Hitler, his equally cynical nonagression agreement with Japan, and his attack on that country while it was trying to surrender to the United States, we are told by French, British and even American leaders . . . that a nonagression treaty with the Soviet Union might reduce tensions and effect stability. If there is anything under heaven the Kremlin does not want, it is stability and reduction of tension. . . .
