Winnipeg thursday july 28, 1949 Tito is Cut adrift the tragic history of Austria is about to move into a new phase. A peace treaty at last is to be framed for the Little landlocked nation which once repelled the Mohammedan and Vance into Europe which was a major Power of the 13th can Tury the ruler of a great Empire in the 19th, the immediate instigator of the first world War in the 20th and finally the first victim of Adolf Hitler one of its own sons. By the Moscow agreement of 1943, the first wartime agreement among the allies Austria was recognized not As an enemy but As an unwilling tool of Germany. The allies promised to restore it As an Independent state after the War. At Potsdam it was further agreed that no reparations were to be exacted from Austria. All these solemn arrangements were instantly violated by . It could not take Over Austria lock Stock and of business conditions in the United More impressive if he had coupled with it a criticism of Britain s unwillingness to put herself in a competitive position by lowering her costs of production which implies that workers would have to produce More without demanding More wages and business executives would have to face More Competition among British Indus trial firms than they Are now will ing to contemplate. Next there is or. Douglas Jay economic Secretary to the British Treasury who told an audience in London that great Britain is keeping at Bay the economic for Ces in the world now running against her. This implies thai Bri lain s problems have Arisen because j a United states View Cool and courageous barrel As it took Over the other Eastern european nations because the armies of the Western Powers stood on guard in austrian territory. However within its own austrian zone proceeded to gut the local Economy. Twenty per cent of the arable land was seized along with Oil production shipping industries railway equipment and everything else that was moveable and seizure Worth about three quarters of a billion dollars in a poor and tiny slate of six and a half million people. At the same time supported the claims of communist Yugoslavia for austrian Carinthia and si50 millions in reparations. Under these conditions the Western allies could not agree to an austrian peace treaty As proposed by for it would have left Austria prostrate incapable of life and an easy victim of future russian expansion. Up to now therefore aus Tria has remained an occupied country impoverished by the Cost of occupation kept alive mainly by the Marshall plan but stubbornly determined to retain its National Independence and to resist communism. The Only constructive result of the recent Paris con Ference of foreign ministers was an unexpected agreement by to Frame a Peao a treaty for Austria. To this end removed the chief obstacle by abandoning its support of Yugo Slavia s claims to Carinthia. Here is revealed one important phase of s sudden shift of policy at has been written off for the time being anyway As a total loss to communism. Russian Hopes in Austria have been sacrificed to a larger strategy. At the end of the War was mainly concerned in Stales and nol because of the slate of affairs in great Britain. At the same time great Britain is asking the United states to in crease her share of Marshall Aid during 19-39-50 by an additional. S62 l millions to Ward off disaster. Or. Jay and sir Graham cunning-1 Ham have hardly facilitated the j granting of i his additional Money. Why Weed the trouble with modern society is that there an too Many rules. We Are hag Ridden with rules arbitrary ones handed Down from father to son slavishly obeyed out examination or conviction that they Are useful guides to conduct. Take this business pulling weeds for example. Our personal estimate is that we have in the past 20 Vears or so yanked up the whole Balkan Region with the future of Yugoslavia. Here j was a Loyal communist country which fronted directly on the non communist West and thrust into the Mediterranean. Everything possible was done to support marshal Tito. To build up his prestige at Home and solidify his regime supported his demands on Austria which were so unreasonable from our Gar Den.

Then came the first fateful break in the solid communist front Tito showed himself a yugoslav first a communist second. The germs of an alarming disease called tit ism took Root in Yugoslavia and obviously they could infect other russian satellites. Accordingly the russian policy of generosity toward Tito which made him Strong at Home was re versed in an attempt to weaken and discredit him with his own people. He was denounced As a traitor to the great cause attempts were made to assassinate him and when this under cover Campaign failed the Public abandonment of Yugoslavia followed at Paris. Out of this Complex series of events a peace treaty for Austria May emerge during the next few months and the wartime agreement of 1943 May finally be carried out. But it would be foolish to imagine thai has finally abandoned for doubtless it.
