SUNDAY, Sor 2, 1950 * Washington Calling— Western Europe

Paces U. S.. on Military Study

Seen Yielding to Defeatism Against Threat of Russ War

By The Scripps-Howard Newspapers WASHINGTON, Nov.. 25—Western Europe is beating us to it; re-examining whole military arms program before Taft's Senate group gets started. Life and death decisions are being made there, not here. Result is, United States faces prospect of war with Russia without a dependable ally outside™the Western Hemisphere—except Australia which has a population comparable to Ohio. Western Europe seems to be surrendering to defeatism; to growing feeling that it would be wasted éffort to resist Soviet aggression. : Britain, under pressure from left wing of Labor Party, talks of seeking ‘negotiated settlement” with Soviet Union before agreeing that is is inevitable. Commons will debate it next week. In France, rearmament under Atlantic Pact is at a “standstill because of budget deficit, opposition to heavier taxes, and general apathy. Best part of French army is. tiled down. by disastrous war in Indo-China. Italy hasn't rearmed, even to extent allowed by peace treaty. Isn't likely to do so unless Uncle Sam puts up money. Western Germany will not Join defense program unless it is. given full membership in . Atlantic community, and France objeets. ; Marshall Plan has brought social and economic gains to .

Iran Shows Signs of Pique Toward U. S Breaks Long Deadlock to Seal Russ Pact

Bars ‘Voice’

From Broadcasts By GORDON CUMMING Compiled from the Wire Services U.S, Ambassador Henry F. Grady's decision to fly home from Tehran, Iran, spurred speculation today that he may warn Washington that Russian relations with Iran are growing friendlier while criti-

in the United States. Although embassy officials denied that his trip was anything more than a ‘‘routine” vigit, it follows these signifi-
