WHAT all the conferring and trading and deal
ing amounts to is that the United 8 la tea,
fearing a war with Soviet Russia, find It necessary
to contract for allies. This policy has been con
tlnuoua since the summer of 1M1 when Harry
Hopkins Hew first to England and then to Russia
to tlx StaUn In the war against Hitler. Shortly
before, Stalin and Hitler had been allies.
The deal with StaUn. subsequently strengthened
by Uie agreements at Teheran and Yalta, costs this
country til, 000.000.000 In s cash outlay to Stalin;
our elimination from the East of Asia; and the
prolongation of the war In Europe Indefinitely. In
directly, because of a policy of appeasement, we
encouraged the Infiltration of Stalin's agents into
our government, and from these vermin we have
not yet been able to tree ourselves.
It the direct and indirect costs. If the money
and the Intangible costs of thla enterprise are ever
assessed, we shall probably discover that it would
have been cheaper to have gone without that
alliance.
Costly Ally
THE British have cost us about SM.000.000.000 In
direct outlays since 119. It is impossible to
assess the Indirect outlays What it comes to Is that
this country, by one means or another, la under
writing the continued existence of Great Britain as
a power. The British desire that we shall continue
this process, until the British schleve an -equilibrium-
in world trade. That -equilibrium" they
are not likely to attain for three reasons:
1. A large part of the world, in which British
trade used to be important, has been closed through
Russian imperialism. Even should Orest Britain
be able to make s barter arrangement with Soviet
Russia, it would last only until the Russian empire
could Increase production Barter la a difficult
method of exchange and proves disadvantageous to
the country that must export In order to get food
stuffs snd rew materials.
1. orest Britain can only rely upon the sacrifices
of the United 8 tares as long as there is no un
employment and no depression In thla country. The
first signs of tr"""1" diiloratlon here and public
clamor will Insist upon protective apparatus to keep
out of our country goods priced cheaply by any
government aa a political measure. Sooner or later.
American labor will revert to Ita policy of a pro
tective tariff and exchange rate, from which It had
been lad sway by one world Internationalism. Thla
trend Is beginning to show now. however slightly.
Similarly, the wheat deal at the recent Washington
conference will be chewed over by the American
fanner. It will probably wreck the entire trans
action. 1. Unless the United States underwrites British
deficits, the welfare atate program was to price
British goods beyond competition Is the open mar
ket. Thus, the British fsce permanent dependence
upon the United 8 la lea. if they are to continue to
price their goods at competitive levels In a word.
Great Britain has been making herself an economic
satellite of the United States. Whst devaluation
will do to to be seen.
Britain's Danger
YHI danger in thla condition la greater for the
British than for the United 8tates. In the
first place, no country can long be an economic
satellite without becoming a political satellite. The
United States win sooner or later come to regard
British costs of government as the business of the
American people because so much of it is paid by
the American taxpayer.
When It Is recognised that this huge cost Is
designed to assure the United Sutes an ally In tune
of war, this country may demsnd of Its government
a realistic and tactual assessment of the fighting
value of the ally and the cost of maintaining the
it may prove not worth too much In a
war with Russia, although its value was greater In
World War I and during the first year of World
War n than subsequently.
In a word, how much do we need to pay for an
ally?
Economy Fight Enters Another Round;

bell sounds today for the fourth
round. Labor and management in
key Industries square off for
the battle over security. And It is
timed at a moment of great Inde
cision ss to which wsy our economy
is headed. The fourth round battle
might easily decide.
It comes hist when our British
cousins have aimed a blow at com
modity markets, which msy or may
in time mean a further decline in
the cost of living. Management is
set tot use that as a new weapon
In fighting labor cost hikes.
The fight comes to a climax Just
when businessmen across the na
tion are wondering If the pickup or
ders last month means an upturn
in trade this fall, or Just the neces
sity to replace depleted inventories,
but still on a hand-to-mouth basis.
Businessmen feel the boat couldnt
be rocked at a worse time than now.
Fall Outlook
Many caun observers think that
the wsy the public mind works this
fall will determine whether business
goes up, or takes another gentle
slide down the deflation trail. If
people think times are going to be
good, they may buy a little more.
If they think prices aie still due to

The auto workers union hss told
Uie Ford Motor company to grant

Rail brotherhoods have been hav

Management, trying to assess the
