RUSSIAN FRONT:
InitidtiUe Reversed

While the Germans continued to
grind forward across the Nalchik
plains in the Caucasus sector the
Russians had taken up the initiative
in key regions further north. Stain
grad communicates were often SINH
lar in their content. This was typi-
cal of Russian announcements: $50
Wet troops repulsed enemy attacks.
In certain sectors our troops coun-
terattacked and forged ahead some
what"
Neutral military observers saw in
the news from Russia that the Nazis
had shifted the main weight of their
drive to the Caucasus mountains.
There the fury of the attack was
undated. Definitely the Russians
were fighting defensive actions all
along this front. Always the Soviet
claimed the infection of heavy losses
of Nazi men and machines as they
retreated before the furious, con-
tinuous onslaught.
Further indication that German
strength was aimed at the midCau-
casus was revealed in the news
from the Black sea area which re-
ported that Russian troops had been
registering regular gains northeast
of Tuapse.

DONALD M. NELSON
No specific candidate.

Although little official news came
from Washington, it was reported
that President Roosevelt is study
ing an urgent proposal for the APP
pointment of an overall administra-
tor to stabilize the nations confused
food situation.
The recommendation, made by
Donald M. Nelson, WPB chairman,
with the approval of Secretary of
Agriculture Wickard, named no spe-
cific candidate for the job. How
ever, two frequently mentioned can
didates are Milo Perkins, executive
director of the Board of Economic
Warfare, and Lee Marshall, food
consultant to Nelson. Perkins was
director of the Agricultural Adjust
ment administration surplus COM

depression.
Two major factors have influenced

VALUE:
And Lend Lease

Placing a value on men killed Or
wounded is pretty difficult thing,
pointed out Great Britain's Sir Wal
ter Venning in suggesting that all
bookkeeping on lend-lease trans
actions be ended. He says that lend
lease between the U. S. and his
country should be put on recipro-
cal basis. In fact the point was
made that this reciprocal arrange
ment has already been going on for
some time and Venning believes
bookkeeping is of no concern.

POSTWAR CHINA:
To Need Billions

China must have from five to ten
billion dollars in foreign credits for
postwar reconstruction, Foreign
Minister T. " Soong has reported
to the Peoples Political council in
Chungking.
The foreign minister, according to
authentic reports, made the follow
ing points:
The outcome of midas demands
for independence from British rule
is of deep concern to China. 1.-THE
future of India is closely connected
with the future of China" Soong
said.
Germany will be defeated by Eng
land and the United States with
gigantic land forces in Europe.
Japan will be defeated with over
whelming naval forces in the Pa
cific.
Following the war, Japan will be
forced to evacuate Manchuria. Ko-
rea and the Liukiu Islands. The lat
ter areas will become sovereign
states.
The United States ma. be expect
ed to help China with large num-
bers of planes and heavy guns as
soon as it becomes possible to do so.
Soong stated that the japanese cap
ture of Rangoon, port of entry for
the Burma road, halted 100000 tons
