Babson outlines war forecast for 1948 by Kruger Babson
Babson argues no World War III in 1948 due to Stalin's tactics and winter constraints. He cites three reasons: guerrilla actions unlikely to trigger a full war, lack of apparent amity signaling aggression, and Russia’s winter limitations. He predicts a possible war risk only if the United States initiates conflict, with caution about Stalin’s pursuit of atomic capability.
