Credited By Truman With Halting Russia WASHINGTON OB President the United Nations made it pos sible to stop Russia. He said American "go it alone" advocates would invite World War HI. The Kremlin policy of conquest might have been irressitble, he said, "if it had not been 'dearly and decisively brought to the bar of world opinion in the U.N." ' We can win the peace, but ue cannot win it alone," the Presi dent said, "and above all, we can not win it by force alone. We can win the peace only by continuing to work for international justice and morality through the United Nations." Submitting an annual report which detailed United States rela tions with the international organi zation, Truman said in an accom panying letter that although these relations have been carried on mostly on , a non-partisan basis, there have been partisan attacks. "Some of these attacks are made in a spirit of impatience that can only lead to the holocaust of world wide war," Truman said. "Most of those who urge us to 'go it alone' are blind to the fact that such a course would destroy the solid progress toward world peace which the United Nations has made in the past seven years. I am confident that the American people will reject these voices of despair." He did not Identify any of the "go it alone" advocates. 'Gen. Douglas MacArthur used the phrase in his address to Congress last year after Truman relieved him as Far East commander.
