The breaking out of peace has been underlined by the recent conference of the four Foreign Ministers, the left forces in Europe are beginning to take up their indicated task of recovering the strength they have lost. In 1946 the left had an excellent chance of victory. It dominated the European political scene; the right was on the defensive, the extreme right in hiding. In 1949 the reverse is true. By making deals with the right on domestic as well as foreign issues, because of the break between East and West, the left has been weakened and divided the Truman Doctrine, the Marshall Plan and the Atlantic Pact may have strengthened the international position of the Western democracies, but they have not helped the progressive forces in Europe-quite the contrary.
