TWO SURPRISED STUDENTS, Torn Landis and Bob Buchenauer, talk with former British Prime
Minister Clement Attlee in their room in McKee Hall. Attlee stopped in their room while on a tour
of campus yesterday.
War Not Inevitable
According to Attlee
An aged statesman, speaking almost exclusively in mono
syllables, was asked if he thought war was inevitable—his
answer "nope."
Clement Attlee, former prime minister of England, quietly
puffed on his pipe as he answered questions from representa-
twos of The Daily Collegian, Cen
tie Daily Times, WMAJ. WDFM
and students of a journalism class.
Settled peacefully in a chair,
the elder statesman proposed
neutialiLing Fiomosa for a period
of time and then letting the For
mosans make up their own minds.
"Everyonv has been doing it for
them," he said.
Attlee said he thought that an
ea , ,ing of „tensions and better
understanding were the major
reasons for Prime Minister Mac-
Millan's trip to Russia.
Relighting his pipe. Attlee
said Russia was quite possibly
bluffing over their threat to get
the West out of Berlin. He said
the problem would probably be
solved by "some kind of compro
mise."
Asked about the shifting of
Russian pi ensure to different parts
of the world, the elder statesman
said they "push wherever they
think there's a chance."
Only once did the man who has
been in politics most of his adult
life come out with a no comment
answer.
Asked what he thought of Amer
ican foreign policy he said he
didn't think he should say any
thing "with the foreign secretary
(Seci etary of State) ill."
Commenting on the British
concept of President Eisenhow
er. Attlee said they (the British)
don't know how he acts but at
times he seems like a "consti
tutional monarch."
The statesman, now in the
House of Lords, said the British
people do not have as much fear
of the Russians as Americans do
because "they have been too close
to danger."
Attlee also favors seating Red
China in the United Nations. He
called it "realistic."
He said he didn't know if the
United Nations could bring about
an immediate peace. However. he
thought it would have to under
go change in order to bring about
a permanent peace.
A stronger military force was
one of the steps Attlee saw in
THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE PENNSYLVANIA
strengthening the organization.
When the Labor government
nationalized some of England's
basic industries after the • war,
some of Attlee's policies were
attacked by Winston Churchill
an, "a blank check for totalitar
ian government."
What did Clement Attlee have
to say about the remark? "One of
his (Churchill's) less intelligent
remarks."
