1He phCb Wlbu EHSClSL Gfermhny could be likened to marriage of convenience dictated by our desire to maintain peace, but we never entertained illusions about the NaziS' real designs. On the other hand, the alliance with the Demo- cratic powers answers more funda- mental aspirations to rid the VI ld and civilization of their most pBf- Adious foe."
 Pravda called the pact "a docu- ment of greatest historical and poe litical significance" which signifies new stage in the war against the Fascist gangsters who trampled down peace treaties with other peo- ples."
 Germany threatens the whole world, the newspaper asserted.
 "The Fascist invaders stretch their covetous, blood-stained paws to the land of the Soviet people, to the British Isles, to the Latin American countries and to the United States" 1t continued.
 Pravda said the "sympathies of the whole world and all peoples are with the Soviet Union and Great Britain, who now are united in the struggle against the common foe, against the perfidious Hitler, the deadliest enemy of Democracy and all mankind"
 Fails Scandalously
 Hitler's plans for the creation of a coalition of peoples against the Soviet Union has failed scandal ougly," Pravda said. "On the con- trary, Hitler has provoked creation of Q real powerful coalition of the great peoples of the Soviet Union and Great Britain against himself"
 "The agreement on joint action by the U. s. s. R. and Great Britain in the war against Hitlerite Ger. many, providing that both parties would neither negotiate nor con- clude an arinistice or treaty of peace except by mutual agreement, means that q coalition of the peo- pies of Europe has been created which will unite all peoples in the struggle against Hitler and bring the task of exterminating Hitlerisn to victorious accomplishments"
 Tass reported that announcement of the agreement was welcomed with great enthusiasm by the Rus- sian people.
 Resolutions and speeches of ap- proval, and of determination to crush Fascism, have been passed by various factory and other groups, 1t said.
 Has United States
 s. A. Lozovsky, spoKesnnan of the Soviet information bureau, said yes- terday at Q press conference in ex- planning the agreement that Great Britain "has on her side the worlds most powerful industrial country the United States"
 He commented that in pledging its aid to Britain, the United States was a real partner in the war. Asked if the United States was merely a silent partner 50 far as the Russo British agreement went, he said:
 "The United States is too great to be silent"
 It was a stubborn fact, he con- tinued, that the United States was allied to Britain. It was clear from President Roosevelt's statements and the American governments of- ficial acts that the United States was openly allied against the ag- gressor, he said.
 Japanese Threat
 Shanghai, July 14-(UP)-Japan- csc sources spread reports today that Japan may move against Rus sia, but neutral observers believed Japan would move only with cau- tion because of reports that strong Soviet forces remain in the Far East.
 According to information reach- ing here Russia transferred two de visions of infantry, one motorized brigade and one air brigade to the west.
 However. this leaves between 30 and 40 infantry divisions facing B to IS divisions of Japan's Kwan- tung army.
 The Russians also have about 50 submarines, 10 destrOyers and 4O torpedo boats available at Vladivos- tok which would be valuable in cp- erating against Japanese commlni- cations.
 Strength of Russias far eastern air fleet is not known but 1t IS bee Iieved capable. of determined resis- tance against the Japanese.
