Thus we find th» American government attempting to appease Russia like England tried to appease Hitler the hope that the “showdown” can somehow be avoided. Russia undoubtedly wants peace—she want leisure time in which to take what she want If she cannot gain her points by her presen tactics she will fight. We now offer her our a- tomic bomb secrets if she promises to be good. That is exactly the situation that England faced when Adolph Hitler stalled swaggering across the stage in Europe.
