SEE ‘OMISSIONS’ IN MOSCOW PACT

No Clauses on Territorial ; . Aggrandizement Found

In ‘French Treaty.

By R. H. SHACKFORD United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.— The French-Soviet pact omitted clauses on territorial aggrandizement ‘and fion-interference in the internal affairs of other states which were included in the 20-year Anglo-Soviet pact, it was indicated today. In most respects the two documents are similar. The only other major difference is that the FrancoSoviet treaty makes no specific provision for being superseded by a |system of collective security. |" "The Anglo-Soviet pact, signed in {June, 1942, provided that: |. “They (Britain and Soviet Russia) will . act in accordance with [the two principles of not seeking [territorial aggrandizement for [themselves and of non-interference lin the internal affairs of other |states.”

Signed in Moscow

The Franco-Soviet pact, signed last Dec. 10 during Gen. Charles De Gaulle’s visit to Moscow, made no mention of those two principles. It has been well advertised that there was an understanding between De Gaulle and Marshal .Josef Stalin, before the treaty was signed, on the future handling of Germany. De Gaulle also was reported to have concurred with the Russian view that the Polish-Russian frontier should be settled on the basis of the Curzon line, in return for which Poland would be promised

WORLD THREAT SEEN IN ROBOTS

Stettinius Views Dumbarton Oaks Pact as * Best

3 Peace Guarantee.

* CHICAGO, Dec. 26 (U. P.) ~The nations of the world may be forced to cope with robot or rocket bomb attacks within the next 10 or 20 years unless the Dumbarton Oaks proposals for a general international organization are adopted and “become a living force,” Secretary of State Edward R. Stettiriius Jr., waned today. Stettinius said in an article prepared for Kiwanis magazine that the Dumbarton Oaks proposals “are important because they point an alternative to unspeakable disaster which is almost certain to befall this country unless we are able to estab ish an efficient and workable organization for the maintenance of peace.” “Many of our outstanding scientists agree that within the space of 10 to 20 years these deadly missiles (robots and rocket bombs) may be perfected to the point where they can travel thousands of miles at incredible speed.”

Maps Prosperity Route

“In that event,” he said, “our oceans, our industrial strength, and our manpower would not be able to prevent surprise attack and vast

Nations, he added, have reached such a degree of interdependence that prosperity can be achieved only by working together, “free from the fear of war and free from the burden of competitive armaments.” “It is-of the utmost importance,” he said, “that we develop collaborative arrangements with other nations and that in furtherance of this collaboration there be established an international organization to assist In fostering peace and in promoting a common prosperity.

High Resolve Shown

“Equally important is the fact that the proposals.do not represent the plan. of any one nation but the common agreement of the four largest powers in the world. Such a large measure of agreement was never reached during the inter-war period. . “The Dumbarton Oaks conversaions revealed a high degree on the part of the four governments represented to maintain the close cooperation forged among them in the course of this war.” Stettinius said he expected that in the near future the Dumbarton Oaks proposals would be submitted to a general conference to draw up a charter “which will give final form to the international organiza-

and prosperity.”
