Maxwell R. 1). Vos at an openi meeting et the Wamen's Cen- adian Club, Monday, April 21st, was extremely timely. Now editor of International Journal, a quarterly pubfication of the Canadian Institute ef In- ternational Affairs, Toronto, Mr. Vos was borr inl England andd ce- ceived bis education at Eton anid Trinity College, Cambridge. Atter travelling exterisively in Europe, the United States and Canada, he returncd ta Canada in Septem- ber, 1949, and in Jariuary, 1950 joined the staff et the Canadien Institute et International Affaira, 230 Bloo.r St. W., Toronto. Emphasizing tbe fact that any opinions expressed in bis address \vere eritirely bis own, and should in no xvay be connected w ith the Institute whicb is. by its consti- tution. forbidden te hold or ex- presa any views on public affaira, Mc. Vos imnparted some pertinent information regarding the pos- ition of Germany and Russia in would everits. The Institute' he said, was an organizatien ta cal- ledt and pass on factual informa- tien. and matenial may be bar- rowed from.iA et ariy time. Turning ]Point The agreement which will end occupation et West Germiany ai- nmost exactly seven years atter \7VE day, Mc. Vos reganded as a! turning point in our relations xvith Germany. That there isý seme hurry in concluding tbisi agreement was expnessed in the1 newspapers, and Mn. Vos felt along ,witb Drew Middleton et! the New York Times, that Ibis burry was in orden ta get the agreement cencluded before a third Russian note on Genmany arrives. In othen xvords, Russia and NATO are engagcd in a very important game. each trying te outbid the other for thc support et Gcnmany, which, Nwith its po- tential et men and resources, bolda a strategic place lu cither peace or war. Russia bas pro- posed an independent, united, neutral, re-armed Germany, with elections ta be beld under tour- powec supervision. This is at- tractive te the Germans, and dangerous te ourselves. Mn. Vos spoke of the commit- mients ln tnoops inade by the NATO ('ountries at the Liabon Conference, and in vicw et thel number of armed forces alrad y dcployed in Korea, Inde-China and Malaya, fighting Communism, he doubted if tbcy would be able te fulfil these cemmîlments by 1954, the date agrccd upon. Rus- sa, on the other hand, is using Asiatics te figbt in these places, and lima corisenving ber forces, xvbicb, with ber satellite cotîfl- tries, number from ltwe and a baîf te thuce million men. Aise Mu. Vos said, "'Let's net kid ourselves that Russian airplanes are net better than ours. Russian jetsî bave been flying rings arouud aur best in Korca." Economic Troubles Exploring bbc Eui'opean picture further, Mc. Vos pointed eut the political and economic troubles w'hich the NATO countries on that continent are experiencing. In fact, 'European ecoiinm," said Mc. \Zos, 'is on the verge et, bankrupbcy and this bias serious implications foc is." Bt itain is also in a bad way cconomically. Pechapa the burden et re-arma- ment xviii have te be borne almost entireiv by North Amecica, Mn. Vos suggested. Our standard of livin g is a picasant habit, but io al Journal k on North ýrganization made by NATO are not necessar- ily' enough, even in military terme, Mr. Vos suggcsted that WE: should starI looking for some al- ternative la NATO. In summing up, Mr. Vos said jIbat Europe must be defended against Communism. "We miust net let aur Amenican standard of living become an untauchable habit," he said, 'athenwisc we may wake up one morning ta find that we have short-sightedly al- located te our allies in Europe a task greater than they cari pe*r- ferm; that they have collapsed under the strain, and that in con- sequence we have no allies left at ail."
