WASHINGTON —<*>)— President

With four years In which to make

They are Adlal E. Stevenson, who
wen a smashing victory In the po
litically Important state of Illinois,
and Frank J. Lausche, who takes
over again in Ohio after a two-year
lapse while the . Republicans were
In control. Lausche had to buck
the regular Democratic. state or

Stevenson has a four-year term

A PLAN FOR PEACE Probably no living
American has seen
more war, at first*
h»”d, than Maj.-Gen. william J. Donovan. "Wild Bill” was Worid
War I commander of New Yorb’s famous Fighting Irishmen—
the 165th Infantry. 42nd Division—and World War II head of the
Office of Strategic Services. Between the two majors wart he
was unofficial observer, on the scene, of moat of the significant
minor conflicts that he recognised as laboratories for the coming
world straggle. Ont of this background, and Jib deep study ot
subversion and counter-subversion, propaganda and counter-pro
paganda, den. Donovan has developed an Idea how to prevent
World War III. He presents it in this dispatch, written especially
for NBA Service—and the Griffin Dally News
By WILLIAM J. DONOVAN
Written for NEA Service and Griffin Daily News
It is time for the United States to take the initiative away
from the Soviet Union, into our own hands, and to impose our
initiative on Russia.
Up to now, Russia has held the strategic offensive. We
have confined ourselves to a tactical defensive. Soviet tactics
have kept us so busy bickering that we have been unable to
set up our own strategic objective, which it peace in the world.
I think It is criminal to imagine
that the only alternative to obeis
ance to Russia is to plunge Into a
shooting war. We are Inclined to
think war means atom bombs,
break an enemy’s will to resUt.
There are other ways than killing
to do that.
Fcr several , years _ Russia has been
fighting a bloodless but an effect
Ive war against us through subver
Lion, psychology, sanctions. I sug
gest that we start our own counter
program, using economic acantlons
and psychological measure^ to take
advantage of the political fissures
between Russia and the satellite
countries she controls, through mi
norltles, against the wills of ma
jeritlea.
For example:
How about inquiring whether
we could deny to Russia and her
satellites the use of port facilities
controlled by Great Britain, France
and this country?
How about considering whether
the Suez and Panama canals, the
Kiel canal, the Dardanelles, should
be closed to the 8oviet bloc nations?
Ho wabout looking into the en
tire position of strategic materials
upon which depend*?
What are we doing about the
100,00 tons of crude rubber going
to Russia every year from Singa
pore by way of Holland?
I do not have enough Information
to know the effect If we should
close canals and ports to the Rus
sians. That would require study,
to see hOw much they use those
facilities, and how.
f consider It worth studying be
cause I am convinced that Britain’s
failure to close the Suez Canal to
]U!y—which I suggested after sev- I
eral months to Ethiopia during the
,T ta’lan Invasion to 1935-36—was I
responsible to turn, encouraged for Italy’s Hitler victory. to That. | j
