U. S. Changes Attitude On Aid To Allies Disabuse Ideas Os Any Price To Keep U. S. Allies In Line WASHINGTON (t*iS)~The JDla enhower adminintratiou txu> anbarked oo a deMbemte campaign to make allied nation* realize that they need the U. 8. more than the U. 8. needs ehem. One major objective <xf the campaign ie to diMbUM foreign «overntmenas and peoptee of the idee that they can blackjack the V- 8. into paying any price to keep them in tthe free world camp. Another important objective ie to establish a mone realistic understanding among toe allies in order to strengthen free world unity in the face of the Communist threat. This U. S. attitude was considered a big factor in swinging the French around to accept the London pact formula for the sovereignty and' rearmament of Weet Germany under the plan for a unified defense of free Europe. A top policy level source outlined the developing U. 8. attitude today and empimeized that K is based on the official aeMeemeot that, if war does come, a combination of U. 3. power and geography will prevail over the Communist world even ts eiMee teU away. The belief that the U. 8. would meet any price to keep an ally has been prevalent during the past few years in both Europe and Airia. ' — it ie strong to Japan, for instance. and prime minister Rhigeru Yorihida ie banking heavily on this aßeum.ption ae he prepares to come to Washington next month to a*k tor a billion dollars or so to aid. ■U. 8. officials say now that Yoehida will be in for a rude surprise if he thinks he can get the U. 9. to "buy” Japanese allegtonce. The feeling is that if the free world alliance is strong enough to make it apparent to the Russians Chat they will lose more than they can gain by war. then the Russians will steer clear of conflict. The threat of secretary of state John Foster Dulles to pull U. 3. forces out of Europe was considered a viUl factor in persuading the French to sign the London pact. 1 In Washington Monday. French eounces el reused that to them it was unthinkable that any French government could break away from the ctron* alliance with the U. S. Such emphaisis was not heard during the long month# of trouble over the European defence community pact and IndoChina. Importance also was placed on the fact that Dulles failed to visit premier Pierre Mendes-France during his pre-London trip to Europe during which he conferred with foreign secretary Anthony j Eden In London and chancellor Konrad Adenauer in Bonn. During j he trip it was expiated Duller did not have the time to go to Paris. The actual reason was that Duller was giving the troublesome Mendea-rance a ■‘comeuppance’ - and some sources in Washington claimed today that the maneuver worked. They »aid Mendes-France in-iti-a||y wss extremely upset and feer•ul that he would lose prestige at houie because of the apparent null, but that later it became • tear in Pari* that Dullea -was demonstrating dramatically that if necessary the U.

College Professor In Report On Europe Tour

(Editor’s note: A fourmonths tour of 11 European nations for the state department convinced Prof. Bruce Hopper of Harvard university that tbs U. 8. should strive for independent "buffer” states instead of fostering aliiances of nations, against Soviet Communist expansion. In the following article, second of a series of four, Prof. Hop per a noted political scientist tells why he believes the alliance system will not work. By BOWARD B. SIMMONS (New Bedford Standard-Times Staff Writer) Distributed by I.N.S. by Special Permission. WOODS HOLE, Mass. (INS) - Instead of promoting alliance* of nations against Soviet Communist expansion, the United States should strive for independent "buffer" states, Prof. Bruce Hopper concluded after a four-months European tour for the state department. A veteran political scientist with a wide knowledge of places, people and events in Europe and Asia, the Harvard faculty member said his findings on the unworkability of the alliance system came to him as a "revelation.” “We should extend the ‘cushions’ instead of extending alliances," he said at his summer home at Woods Hole. “The greater part of Europe north of Spain is neutralist and there are sound reasons for It. “You can’t turn Europe from Russia by cracking them over the bead. You can’t’ do it by sending ignorant Americans to persuade them about our way of life.’ You can’t do It by military efforts. "There are sound reasons tor especially some of the small European nation* to preserve their neutralism as a kind of fluidity in the equilibrium of the balance of power. Until there is a universal system of collective security operating. our only real defense in Europe is such an equilibrium. “In Europe, the hi between function of the neutralists is just as important as the big power deterrent in the scales. We must have zones between two powerful races in which people are bilingual and don’t want to belong to either —- such as Alsace-Lorraine, the Saar, Switzerland and Luxembourg. “But in our craze for alliances and apparent adoption of the Bolshevik concept of ‘if you’re not for us, you’re against us,’ we try to put everybody in our rigid mold. “It came as a revelation to me. the wrongness of expanding alliance* instead of making ‘washers’, ‘interliners.’ or ‘in-between people’ in Europe.”' By relying on alliances like NATO, the Pacific. Rio and South east Asia, the United States is "playing with continents and we are pot skilled enough to do it,”
