'Taking the Walk for a Dog'

Acting for History
By SAMUEL GRAFTON
THERE HAS still been no adequate explana-
tion of why Russia took up the cases of
Greece and Indonesia before the Security Coun-
cil with such a high degree of fervor and as-
saulting zeal. She must have known she would
be voted down, that she could not hope to induce
the Council to expel the British from Greece, or
to take any measure of international control
over Indonesia. In other words, she knew she
would be defeated, yet she pressed the issues
anyhow. The only explanation that has been
offered is that Russia acted in a spirit of school-
boy pique, angered by British pressure to clear
her out of Iran. But while it may be comforting,
it seems somehow implausible, to class the Rus-
sians as schoolboys; and if pique is the explana-
tion for Russian behavior, this must surely be one
of the biggest piques in history, a kind of Pike's
pique.
Dudgeon hardly seems an adequate answer;
even a large dudgeon. It seems to me that, if
there is an answer, it may perhaps be found in
a shifting Russian conception of what the United
Nations is, or are. It will be recalled that, up
to a few weeks ago, the Russians regarded the
United Nations Organization as a kind of execu-
tive committee of the victors in the late war,
as a continuation into the peace of the Grand
Alliance which had won the war.
Mr. Molotov made it clear, in his important
November 6 speech, that he did not expect the
United Nations Organization ever to take action
against any of the great powers, that he thought
of it more as an agency which would take con-
tinuing action on behalf of the great powers
against the remnants of fascism in the world.
It was during the period when the Russians were
speaking in this manner that they remained
meekly tolerant of British activities in Greece,
even when those activities were directed against
communists.
But the western powers have always regarded
the United Nations Organization more as a par-
liament, and as an arena, rather than as an
executive committee of the victors in the war.
The real importance of the huge Vishinsky out-
bursts on Greece and Indonesia, it seems to me,
is that they indicate the Russians have come to
accept this view of the United Nations Organiza-
tion as the reality. With the coalition fading,
they have made a characteristic quick shift,
substituting parliamentary tactics for coaliton
tactics; and (this is also rather typical of them
when they change their minds) they have gone
to it with a whole-hearted vehemance which
has astounded the world.
THE RUSSIANS have given up their former
view that the United Nations Organization
is a place where the great powers meet to agree;
they have accepted the view that it is a place
where the great powers meet to dispute in pub-
lic. This need not necessarily mean that the
Russians have ceased to cooperate; it is a case
of cooperation at one level, and struggle at an-
other level. And on the level of struggle the
Russians are setting up what might be called
"long lines" of policy; they feel, perhaps, that
ten years from now, as history synopsises the
story of today, and drops out the details, the
Greeks will remember only that the Russians
wanted to put the British out, and the Indones-
ians will recall only that the Russians tried to
free them.
The counter-arguments will be forgotten; it
is like the old League of Nations again, with
Litvinov arguing, all alone, for immediate world
disarmament; he never got a vote in the cham-
ber, but he found an audience outside.
This is not schoolboy stuff, but another chap-
ter in the long and intricate fight to capture
the imaginations of men. The danger is that
we of the west will be held on the defensive,
winning in the hall and losing outside. We must
find some way affirmatively to carry the good
word freedom, for colonial and other peoples,
into the chamber, realizing that the proceedings
of a world parliament are, quite naturally, fol-
lowed by the world.
