The Americans, Adenauer said, were slow to realise that Russia
was bent on world conquest. For a while there was a feeling in
America and Britain that perhaps the Russians were abandoning
Bolshevism and were becoming a Democratic nation. The Russian*
were convinced, he said, that time was working for them. They
never moved without figuring every step in advance, anticipating
every possible contingency, like a good chess player.
The Russians may have believed, he continued. that the United
States would not intervene in Korea, but there would be no doubt
that they included the possibility of an American Intervention in
their calculations. It must have taken long preparations to throw
several hundred thousand Chinese Communists Into the battle,
he said
Adenauer expressed regret that in the past three months in
which the Western powers have debated the question of Germany’s
contribution to Europe's defense, the German government and peo-
ple were told nothing except what they could read In the news-
papers and not consulted about a problem of such vital concern
to them.
The Social Democrats had used this uncertainty In recent
election campaigns to tell the German voters that a ballet for
the socialist Party was a ballot for peace and that was the best
way to guarantee peace was to do nothing. Adenauer declared
-This, in my opinion, is irresponsible in the highest degree."
he said. "It is of the greatest importance to wipe out the eon-
fusion and uncertuinties of the past three months and to free
the German people from these psychological obstacles to a sincere
collaboration in European defense. This can be done if they are
Accepted as equal partners of the West
"As I have already proposed to te Allied high commissioners
this could best be done by swiftly replacing the occupation statute
with a security treaty. It is not enough to read off a hat of things
which Germany will now be permitted to do. All these points
should be solved—in fullest observation of necessary Allied rights
_ by means of areaties between equal partners
"Only then, and when a mighty American force with European
nd German participation stands ready, will America be able. In
rosw-rri with the free West, to launch a peace offensive against
mussia with a real chance of success.

larmed Germany, so a» to consolidaie it with the Soviet power ami
thus emerge a* strung a* the United States, Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer declared in an exclusive interview with the United Preus.
In order to further this objective, the chancellor said, il I* Rus
ala’s plan to bleed the United states into a permanently weakened
condition by prolonged wars in Asia.
Chancellor Adenaugr thus expressed his view, at the moment
'.•lien Prime Minister Cqment Attlee was leaving for Washington
to give President Truman th" views of the British and French gov-
ernments on the international crisis. ,
The Interview w ns given in the ramhling white villa which
serves at the chancellory in peaceful-looking Bonn on the Rhine,
where the ugly sears of the last war are beginning to take on
the softness of ancient ruins.
Adenauer's manner was vers serious and thoughtful. He spoke
in German and talked slowly and carefully, giving ample time
for each utterance to be translated
) Upon'entering the chancellory the visitor it snappily sAhMed
by two policemen who look as big and rugged as any Germans
ever did. Most of the man to be seen in this part of Germany, in-
cident ally, look the Mime.
L "There will be lasting pence only," Adenauer said, “when
the United States is able to confront the Soviet Union with a mill-
i tary force le attack which the Russlans would consider truly dan-
I gerous. Only then will the time have come to talk peace - last-
ing pence- with the Russians.
. "To bulld such a military force, however, the United States will
Also need the Germans." he mid. "But America will get the
wholehearted cooperation at the Germans onb when the German
people no longer feel they are a second-clam power under foreign
ceuidion.
"The German people should gain the conviction that their des-
tiny will no longer be shaped by negotintions in which they have
no voice and on the basis of an occupation statute founded on the
conquest of Germany
"We readily admit that fur the Wst, especially France, this
idea II dtfoult e Lo accept. t
"But it is alto dear that this offers the West the only way
-out ot the present dangerous situation and the only way towards
the creation ot a unified and federated Europe.
“At th* present time the Russians have stationed in the East-
rm zone, accordmg to Allied source*, several Soviet armies to-
