THIS WEEK and NEXT
Twenty Years
By RAY ARGYLE •
To the very young, an event
which occurred 20 years ago
seems like something which
happened a very long time ago.
To those who are older,•11 might
have been only yesterda.y.
There wiB thus be many
shadesof reaactiont to next
week's 20th anniversary 'obser-
vance of the' end of the war in
Europe.. While VE -Day did not
mark the close of Wild War
May 8 siLll stands out as the,
climatic dote of the war years,
from 1939 to 1945:
• • Twenty' years ma,y only be a
flick ae time in, bitstotry.. But it
is also a large period of time
•
in the average man's life. And
so much. has 'happened in the
past 20 years that had, its seeds
ih those six years- of war, that
it has taken the •Wiarld nearly a
generation to recover.' .
• It is beginning to appear that
the recovery is almost earn -
plebe.
The 'Cold war has come to an
end. The "new war" between
the' West and'Russ. rirai, which the
defeated Nazis hoped would fol-
low the collapse of Germany,
'ire-Veirinariallized. • -
, European colonialisan, .pros-
trate at the end of the warsnev-
er .rose. again. Tremendous
for"'s.es set in na6tion
tinder the Stress of battle...have
neshaped • our lives.
The struggle between ideolo-
gies goes on, butsa new retof
rules has been surperimposed on'
the old struggles .between stateS.
World war has becomeniithin,k.
able . (although not impossible)
because all natiOnts would have
ton much bo -lose.
'All countries. suffered heavily
in World War 11. Military, casu-
alties among the belligerents
exceeded 15 million, nearly
twice those of the finit great
war.:
The greatest Losses were sus-
tained by the Soviet Union.
Nearly eight minion men were
killed in ,lotattle. Another three
million, were rendered useless
by injury. Ten mullitort civilians
died of wounds, starvatien, or
Nazi 'mistreatment. These 21
million victims rogrekented. 19
per cent of the Pepulation. Vast
areas of the land were laid
waste. A region as great as the
Canadian prairies had become.
scorched 'earth' •
These figures. are worth re-
peating at this time because
the extent of Russia's losses are
still not generally realized in
the Western world. - •
Out of this devastation was
borne the d,etermination of Rus-
sia's leaders to render Germany
•incapable of -fighting another
After
war. It is this which accounts
for the hardness of the Russian,
line on Berlin and against the
reunification of Germany. This
also is why, Russia has enforced
pro -Soviet satellite governments,
on the states of Eastern Eur-
ope.
• While only the naive would
suppose that the Communists
have given up their hope of con-
verting the world, the SerVival
and defense of the Soviet Union
itself hai been the main preoe-
cupation of the Kremlin 'felder-
• ship all these years.
The defeat of Germany left
Russia the roaster of eastern
Europe in the spring of 1945. At-
tention then turned to Japan,
With the, fear that •much bloody
fighting stili remained before
the fanatical Japanese would
sue for peace.
Looked at from al perspec-
tive of 20 years, it can now be
seen that the U.S. and Britain
were ant:dons to secure Russia's
participation in thei war against
Japan, but ate fearful of invit-
ing the Russian bear siouth from
his Siberian conpoimd.
The solution was as dramatic
as it was deadly. It in now ac-
tepted by .competent historians,
that Japan was ready -to quit
two weeks before the first A-
bomb .was dropped on Hiroshi-
ma, But the -Ameiricrans . went'
•ithead so as to knock . Japan
quickly out Of the war before
the Russians could eta im a
share of the spoils!. • •
• The 'world may still be in a
terrible mess, but at least we
harv,e lived through nearly 20
years of the Atomic age without
world war. With the increasing
"westernitation" of Russia, it
has been replaced by China as
the villazi of the peace. But
that fs' another story.
