- AP Foreign .Affairs Analyst
Paul Hoffman, leader of Amer
ica's economic effort in the cold
war. and Geh. , Omar Bradley,
charged with responsibility for the
nation’s military safety, apparent
ly do not see eye to eye on the
world situation.
Hoffman's optimism over the
prospects that Russia's postwar
empire will crack under the weight
of its own excesses is not shared
in the, State Department, either.,
Situation Woreo „
^On the otljjBr hand, secretary
Acheson. while^ot exactly endors

that the situation is worse than
it was a few months ago, did say
that it was no better.
Hoffman told the U. S. Cham
ber of Commerce that Russia’s
satellites would break away from
their tfiraildom "within the fore
seeable future.” Walter Lippmann
told the chamber the crackup al
ready had begun, referring to Yu
goslavia. (Lippman said two years
ago that the cold war was then
over, and that j Russia knew she
had lost it.) Titoism is of course
important, but Russia’s losses since
the war are infinitesimal compared
with her gains.
Bradley told the House Armed
Services Committee Tuesday, on
tH% other hand, that the outlook
in the cold war has worsened re
cently; that he saw no letup in
Russia’s “aggressive extension of
Communism toward the goal of
world domination.”
Recognition Problem
In all talk of pea£e with Rus
sia one of the great problems is
whether America’s traditional at
titude would permit her to recog.
nize Russian conquest of Eastern
EQrope as permanent, abandon
ing countries like Czechoslovakia
and Poland to a regime which is
believed fundamentally repulsive
to them. That these countries
would break away, given the op-

ut what will provide that oppor

There 'are rdenty of .anti-com-
