NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON. — (NEA) — Completion of a
ecase-fire arrangement in Korea will have no ef
fect whatever on conclusion of the peace treaty
with Japan.
On the contrary, the fact that there is an armis
tice in Korea may in part be due to American de
termination to go ahead with the Japanese peace
treaty. Reasons for this belief are simple.
Russia’s ultimate goal in Asia is to have a Com~
munist Japan. Russia is believed to have planned,
started and supported the Chinese aggression in
Korea as the first step towards domination of Ja
pan. Now that the Russians realize that Japan will
be allied with the anti-Comnrunist powers in the
Pacific, through peace treaties, the Korean adven
ture may have been called off, at least temporarily,
as not worth the cost in men and materiel.
Timetables for signing the treaty with Japan are
still incomplete. Revised drafts of the treaty texts
have just been submitted to the powers who were
allied in the war on Japan. The original goal was
to have the treaty concluded this summer, and that
is still the hope.
if the treaty is signed by September, it may not
b= ratified for another six months, The Senate,
wv..ih a calendar already crowded by domestic af
fi.rs, may not be table to take up the treaty this
year, If Senate Foreign Relations Committee hear
ings are postponed till the next session of Congress,
ratification by the United States may not come be
fore early 1952,
8 7LL SECRET
" exts of the trealy agreements will not be made
pu lic until they are signed. While‘the United States
b>: not surrendered any of its objectives in the ne
gotiations with Japan and the allied powers, the
firm of the treaty has been altered in preparation.
Pre ent indications are that there will be several
b » azreements,
“rst will be the peace treaty with Japan, signed
b all the World War Il powers except Russia and
t > Communist satellites. Jacob Malik, Soviet dele
¢ ‘e to the United Nations, has declared that Rus
& 1 witl not accece to the American-Japanese treaty.
Eussia has propesed that the treaty be negotiated by
E -cia, Red China and the United States. The
1 aited States hes rejected this proposal. After the
£ cerican treaty is concluded, it has been said that
t © Russian embassy in Tokyo will be reduced to
t ° elfectiveness of the U, S. embassy in Moscow.
e serond part of the Japanese treaty will con
§ . ol an Ameri an-Japanese security agreement,
102 United States will be given the right to station
#6555 in Jepan, But there will be no obligation for
' United States to protect Japan.
i e IMinister Yoshida has indicated that after
s . pawt of the agreement is concluded, Japan will
2 sieps towards creating its own defense and
¢ iributing to Pacific security.
he original plan for a Pacific defense pact, to be
£ .2d by Japan and all the non-Communist powers
in the Pacific, has now been dropped. In its place
v il be a series of security pacts between separate
¢ouniries. The first will be concluded between the
United States, Australia and New Zealand.
he United Siates has already given guarantees
for defense of the Philippines. Other, similar agree
ments are expected to be made with other Pacific
powers. Japan and Nationalist China, for instance,
will be expected to conclude a treaty of their own.
Ultimately, however, it is hoped to draw all these
scparate agreements together into a Pacific alli
ance,
ALLIES UNITED
Negotiation of the Japanese peace treaties has
done a great deal to strengthen the ties between the
United States, Britain and France. At one stage of
the proceedings, it was feared that this issue might
lead to a serious breach.
The French were at first opposed to making any
peace treaty with Japan for fear it would antago
nize Russia, The French were told that no prece
dent for the treaty with Germany would be set by
the treaty with Japan. If France didn't wish to go
along on the Japanese treaty, the United States
would break with France on this issue. France came
along.
The British, fearing Japanese trade rivalry,
wanted Japan kept economically weak. It was
pointed out that the United States had poured $2
billion into Japan to keep the country fromr going
Communist, while the British had contributed rel
atively nothing. From this position of power and
strength, the United States was able to convince the
British that cooperation would be better than riv
alry in insuring future peace in the Far East.

Red Propaganda Cannot Alter
.
Fact That They Failed
It is well established, of course, that Russia’s
Jacob Malik made the first definite peace offer on
Korea.
When he declined to elaborate, the United States
took the cue and via radio wafted a series of cease
fire proposals toward the North Korean and Chi
nese Reds. Acceptance by the Communists made
possible the current cease-fire talks.
Apparently, this sequence of events was planned
by the Reds for propaganda purposes. Communist
radio stations are blaring constantly that it is we
who are suing for peace, we who have been de
feated. $
According to this weird theme, Malik made no
offer but merely “suggested” it would be nice if the
fighting ended, Thereupon the U. N. accepted this
proposal and trumpeted its calls for a truce.
Malik’s vagueness, plus the fact that we took the
initiative with specific cease-fire plans, helps, of
course, the Red propaganda aims.
But we are not helpless in the face of this bar
rage of lies, and no doubt every propaganda wea
pon at our disposal is being employed to tell the
world, and particularly Aisia, the true story.
It is unfortunate that neither the Asiatics nor
many others are map-readers. For the map of Ko
rea, marked with present battle lines, is the best
refutation of communism’s false claimg to victory.
Only in the area of Kaesong, scene of the truce
parleys, are the Reds below the famed 38th par
allel. At all other points, forces of the United Na
tions have pushed many miles above that boundary.
Since the object of the Reds’ 1950 attack was to
capture South Korea, it is hard to see how the
LOSS of territory can be classed as a triumph for
the attackers. This elemental fact is alone sufficient
to reduce the Communist propaganda offensive to
garbled noises.
But to it may be added the second fact that UN
armies have administered about 1,200,000 casualties
to the Reds in the 50-odd weeks of Korean fighting.
In ringing up that resounding total, - we have
smashed the North Korean army almost completely,
and have shattered many of the finest elements of
the Chinese Communist forces.
With air attack and naval bombardment, we
have flattened innumerable North Korean cities,
torn up rail and highway networks, demolished
valuable industrial concentrations,
We cannot pretend that UN forces and the South
Korean people have not also suffered. Much of
South Korea has been laid waste. Millions are dead
or homeless. American forces alone count nearly
80,000 casualties. South Korean armies register
their losses in six figures.
But these losses are nevertheless small compared
to those of the Reds. And it must be said again
that the Communists’ goal was to win South Ko
rea, not to flatten it.
No impartial totalling up of the balance sheet can
give the edge to the Communists in this bitter
struggle. By any fair measure, they have been
beaten, They have lost land they originally held,
they have lost the preponderance of men and equip~
ment, and they have tailed to gain the objective for
which they launched the war.
. We would be sadly negligent if we did not suc
ceed in getting these simple truths across to the
non-Communist world.
The propaganda now being broadcast over the
Red radio stations cannot alter the fact that the
Communists failed in their objective: the seizure of
South Korea aand the unification of Korea under
Communist domination,
We must expect that the Reds will do all that
they can do to make it look as if the United Na
tions instead of the Reds themselves asked for a
cease-fire, and that the U. N. was defeated in Korea.
1f the peace negotiations continue until a cease
fire.is actually ordered we may as well be ready
for all sorts of efforts by the Reds to claim they
won the war and to split the United States from its
allies. Indeed, it is quite possible that the objec
tionable tactics already employed by the Reds are
designed to force this country to lose its head, and
quit the peace talks. We must be ready as a people
to put up with more of the same kinds of tactics
that have been used by the Reds for years.
And, most important or all, we as a people must
remember that we have two honorable courses we
&e:n pursue in dealing with the Communist nations.
e can either engage in an all-out war with thenr
or we can contimue to re-arm, and as we re-arm
meet the Reds as we did in Greece, Berlin and
again in Korea, and thus avoid war until we are
strong enough to force Russia to abandon its aim of
world domination. Neither of the courses open to
us is attractive. But they are the only courses that
we have. In the meantime, if we allow the Reds to
make us lose our balance and take steps that result
in our losing the leadership of our allies we are lost.

Sea Of Galilee Waits Peace
For Role As Recreafion Area
BOSTON, Mass.—As soon as a
peace treaty can be signed be
tween Israel and the Arab states,
the Sea of Galilee will become a
leading tourist and recreation
area. So state the authorities
busy rebuildin gthe ancient city of
Tiberias on its shores.
Nature designed the Sea of Gali~
lee to be peaceful. A bowl of
azure blue fresh water set in a
basin far below sea level, it is
restful to the eyes and sheltered
from changes of climate. Bound
by stark cliffs on several sides, it
is cut off from hot winds of the
Arabian Desert. To the north
stands snowy Mt. Hermon, a
guardiar. from cold northern
winds, and the source of the Jor
dan, which keeps the Sea of Gali
lee fed with water.
Yet man’s struggles have put
this lake on a troubled frontier
where three antagonistic coun
tries meet — Israel, Syria, and
Hashemite Jordan. Two complete
ly diffeernt ways of life meet here
at the lake, symbolizing the geo
logical term for the valley in
which it lies—“The Great Rift.”
All-Arab City
Tourists reach the Sea of Gali
lee by a bus ride of three hours
from the nearest big city—Haifa,
Yet that ride spans the entire
width of the Republic of Israel,
passing through the hallowed re
gion of Galilee. From Haifa the
road parallels the long ridge
known as Mt. Carmel, whose cool
‘and forested heights are fast be
’coming Israel’s most porular sum
| mer resort.
It then crosses the fertile Plain
08 Esdraelon and climbs to storied
Nazereth, Israel’s only all-Arab
' city. Nazareth lies in the center of
Galilee, and was unharmed in the
| recent bitter war for Palestine.
From Nazareth the road continues
to the village still known as Cana
of Galilee, and then comes out on
the edge of the deep rift, with the
blue bowl of the Sea of Galilee far
below. Many horseshoe bends and
curves bring the road down to
Tiberias, historic city on the Imke’s
western shore.
Tiberias Growing
Today Tiberias is becoming a
big city of Israel. Its tumbledown

At Tiberias the Sea of Galilee is
beautiful. On its opposite shore,
seven miles across, stand the
parched clfifs of Moab. At their
foot along the lake shore are a
few tiny villages, clad in trees.
From Tiberias runs the Road to
Damascus, one of the most con
gested highways in ancient days,
but now a rough and narrow
“road to nowhere,” for no one is
allowed to cross the border be
tween Israel and Syria. However,
much Israeli traffic uses this old
route as far as the border.

scriptions of Jesus just offshore
on a ship talking to the crowds
standing on the narrow beach.
Three miles north of Tiberias be
gins the Plain of Gennesaret, a
small flat stretch of fertile ground.
Beyond it the rolling hills return
to the water’s edge, and one of
these is called the “Mount of the
Beatitudes,” so beautiful in its
contours sloping down to the lake
that tradition insists this was the
place where Jesus gave his Ser
mon on the Mount. On its top
stands a religious hostel to accom
modate pilgrims and wayfarers,
and lovely gardens for them to
rest in while contemplating the
peaceful Sea of Galilee below.
At the northern tip of the lake
stand the ruins of Capernaum, so
}prosperous a city in Jesus’ time,
now a barely excavated. deserted
site. From here runs the Damas
cus Road up to the Jordan Valley
to Lake Huleh and then to the
Syrian border.
The opposite, southern end of
the Sea of Galilee abuts on the
wide lower Jordan Valley, the
“Great Rift” slash in the earth’s
surface. The Jordan, a small
sized river of clear blue where it
leaves the lake, winds in a corke
screw course down:this slash to
ward the-Dead Sea, even farther
below sea level.
Fertile Fields
At first the Jordan is entirely
within Israel territory, and is lined
with fertile grain fields, orange
orchards, and pools for rearing
baby carp. Five miles south, how
ever, it becomes the no-man'’s land
between Israel and Hashemite
Jordan, and after an equal dis~
tance more, the Jordan passes into
the little Arab kingdom’s territory,
and the bustling effect of Israel
leaves its shores.
