6 The Newt-Review, Roseburg, 0r. Thur., July 28, 1949 Socialism Can't Compromise With Communism, Japan's Ex-Chief Says By DEWITT MACKENZIE Associated Press Foreign Affairs Analyst I've Just spent some time with an Interesting transient Tetsu Katayama, Japan's first Socialist premier who came to power in the country's first postwar election. He Is out of office now and has been making an Intensive study of socialism's progress in Eu ropean countries, In preparation for a fresh Socialist campaign In Japan. Nippon's Socialist leader 1 a 62-year-old lawyer who was elect ed Premier in May, 1947, by an almost unanimous vote of the House of Representatives under the new constitution. However, he actually was a minority pre mier, since his party didn't have a majority. Couldn't Parform Miracles The people expected Kataya ma to perform an economic mir acle by lightening the !oad of the man-on-the-street overnight. His government did win praise for Its apparent sincerity in attacking the accumulated economic prob lem, but he couldn't deliver fast enough, and so fell after some ten months before a combined conservative and communist gault, aided bv the desertion of his own left wingers. Katavama has a quiet and un assuming personality which one would scarcely expect to una in the two-fisted leader of a great party. But you quickly sense one source of his power In the fast, straight-thinking In which he re plies to questions. He wastes no words. No List For Communism The former premier Mid he had found that European Social ist governments were making good progress in rehabilitation. Some of them, however, were making the great mistake of try inff to compromise with commu nism. He was emphatic In de claring that socialism and com munism couldn't work together that there could be no successful compromise. The Japanese so cialists, he said, would develop along their own lines, quite apart from the communists. Katayama said he believes that moral rehabilitation must be an Integral part of Japan's recov ery. He reminded me that he is a Christian, whereupon I asked him if he felt that the principles of the Sermon on the Mount could be applied In his country in view of the fact that most of Its people belong to other religions. His conclusion was quick and Interesting. He said that those great principles could be accpet ed by any religion, providing the ological areumenta were left out. In short, a person needn't sub scribe to Christianity to be a be liever in those principles.

PARIS, July 28. .P Britain's critical dollar shortage has ex ploded Into an economic crisis for all the Marshall plan countries.
