Malenkov Peace Talk
Bid for Russian Backing
Washington VP) Just because
Malenkov didn't threaten war In
his funeral oration for Stalin Is
no reason for the West to feel
safer. Malenkov sounded fairly
peaceful because be bad to.
It's the Communist line: Rus
ala is the No. 1 peace-loving na
tlon. Stalin established It. Malerv
kov has been following It. He
must do so here at the start of
his regime, at least, to build con
fidence of the Russian masses In
him.
; War talk the first time he
opened his mouth after Stalin's
death would cause more fright
than devotion. What he and the
party actually do later is not ne
cessarily connected with what
Malenkov says now or later.
He said his policy is based on
the "Lenln-Stalln premise of the
possibility of the prolonged co
existence and peaceful competi
tion of two different systems,
capitalist and socialist."
The trouble with the word
"prolonged" as he used it is that
It does not mean "forever." Pro
longed means for a while. Lenin
laid down the doctrine which
plainly says "peaceful co-existence"
can't last forever.
"As long as capitalism and so
. cialism remained, we cannot live
In peace. In the end one or the
other will triumph a funeral re
quiem will be sung either over
the Soviet Republic or over
world capitalism. This is a re
spite in war."
The Communists already have
proved In Korea what they'd try
when they thought they might
get away with It. From commu
nism's viewpoint It's good psy
chology, for more than one rea
son, to call Russia the No. 1 peace
lover.
In the first place, the Stalln
Malenkov problem is different
from Hitler's. When he came to
power the German people humil
iated by their World War I de
feat, felt bitter and mistreated.
They had an old tradition of
nationalism. Hitler pumped them
full of that to make them fight
ing mad. Since they had also an
eld militaristic tradition, he ap
pealed to that, too.
And because the Germans felt
crowded, he could direct them
to war with promises of more
living space and revenge for
World War I. By threatening war
he strengthened his position with
the Germans.
But the Russians came out of
World War n victorious. They
felt neither humiliated nor mis
treated. So they had neither need
nor desire for revenge.
They were induced to prepare
for war by repeatedly telling
them they were Innocent peace
loving people surrounded by
enemies getting ready to attack
them. That puts the six million
Communist party members and
the other 204 million Russians
not permitted In the party all
in the same pot.
That's the pot Stalin stirred
up. And Malenkov himself vig
orously stirred It last October
when, addressing the 10th All
Soviet Communist Party Con-
By JAMES MARLOW
gress in Moscow, he accused the
United States of trying to
"wreck the peace."
In addition to all that, the Rus
sians probably have a healthy
respect for the atom bomb sup
ply in possession of the West and
probably don't feel ready yet to
start talking aggressively.
The West s best hope the Rus
sians may not try right away
some adventure that would start
World War III may lie in the
fact that Russia is in transition
from one regime to another.
Everything coming from Mai'
enkov and the Kremlin since
Stalin's fatal illness began indi
cates the leaders are hoping they
get the support of the masses of
Russian people.
The extraordinarily - detailed
bulletins on Stalin's dying hours
almost seemed an effort to as
sure everyone, Inside and out
side Russia, that Stalin was dy
ing naturally and had not been
purged.
The statement by the party
leaders after Stalin s death in
effect pleaded with the masses
to give the party and the new
leadership the support Stalin
commanded.
And Malenkovs funeral ora
tion was shot through with hopes
that the people would rally
around him and the party. For
reasons of their own the Krem
lin Hbsses had built Stalin into
a kind of demi-god who stood
above the party.
It will take time for Malen
kov to build himself up that
high. Compared with the peO'
pie's awareness of Stalin, Mal
enkov is a brand new man they
never heard of before.
The Russian communists know
him well but not the people.
