Germans, America Desire Unification Unification of Germany is de sired by the United States and the German people, it was pointed out by Maj. Murray F. Gibbons, pro fessor of military science and tac tics, and Walter Schwarzlose, Ger man student in journalism who is editor of a Cerman newspaper, in the first International Relations r;lub forum last week. Maj. Gibbons discussed German unification in terms of the stability of Europe and the Soviet-Ameri can power struggle. He said Ger many is the key to Russian and American tension, possessing the largest industrial and military po tential outside of the tw'o powers, and enough to decide the balance. The United States would wel come a neutralized independent and unified Germany, with a gov ernment responsive to the people, he asserted, though the govern ment need not necessarily be pro Red or pro-West, but friendly to all its neighbors. Another alternative Maj. Gib bons stated, would be a federation of western Europe with Germany, possibly only western Germany as an integral part. He indicated time was pressing since the Russians might find it expedient to strike in the spring of 1952 before Europe can be sufficiently stabilized. Schwarzlose said failure to achieve German unification and the signing of a separate west Ger man peace treaty would toally de moralize eastern Germany and pro vide material for Communist propaganda. There would be little gain by a separate treaty, he said, and much i to lose, making unification more j difficult. On the other hand, he ' went on, the holding of free elec tions would allow a government friendly to the west to take office. Maj. Gibbons, in discussing the attitude of Russia to Germany, contended the Soviets would con cur in a plan for a united independ ent Germany only if she could get eventual control of all Germany. An independent Germany would throw Poland further into Russia’s orbit, he said, because Poland needs Russia to hold the territory taken from Germany. Stalin might approve of a uni fied Germany in order to lessen i the possibilities of a federation of western Europes Maj. Gibbons . stated. Read and use Emerald classi- j fieds.
