NATIONS FUTURE
Vice President Believes
Country Trulv Chosen
"Of The Lord"

NEW YORK, June 8.-tR-Vice
President Wallace envisioned
America today as "chosen of the
Lord for transformation ''into
something which Europe and Afri-
ca and Asia will welcome as their
brightest hope in the time to
come"
In a speech prepared for din.
ner meeting sponsored by the
Churchnnan to honor President
Roosevelt. the vice president as
serted that history thus far "seems
but a prelude to magnificent
world symphony.
"America," he added. Twill not

nine out of ten Of the adults Of the
world can read and write, unit! all
the children of the world can have
at least a pint of milk day, un,ii
education brings with it such u

Wallace termed America "fn e
heir of the religious concepts of
Palestine and the culture of Rone
and England" 1t is building. he
said. for "a peace which is not

''The American peace. the peace
of the common man" he declared

Kalinin Starts Effort
To Rebuild From Ashes

woman mayor, Varyara Mikhai-
lovna Gorbunova, already is carry
ing out plans for restoration.
The people are pouring back over
muddy roads and flooded low
lands to their ruined homes. The
population which was 5000 be-
fore the war dropped to $4,000 dur
ing the German occupation and
now has risen to 100000 since
the Nazis were driven out on Dec.
IL. The retreating Germans burned
virtually all that was not wrecked
by bombs and shells.
The mayor is vigorous, a.
year. old former textile worker.
She wears mannish blue suit
and has closecut blond hair. When
she returned to the city she found
only 1880 dwellings Of the original
1908 intact.
"The city was dead" she said,
there was no water, street cars
or utilities of any kind. Now 25
miles of the original 80 miles of
water lines and sewage system are
restored. Two hospitals have been
repaired and Is schools are open
for three shifts day."
A preliminary allotment of S.
100000 rubles was made for res
toration of homes The mayor es-
timated the eventual cost of re-
building Kalinin at 177,0OO,O0O
rubles.
The mayor estimated 95 per cent
of Kalinin's textile industry h d
been destroyed by the Germans.
She took me to see the Vokehanov
textile plant where 1000 persons
once worked. 1t now is entirely in,
ruins.
The giant Proletarka plant which
employed 10000 workers is now
largely mass of brick rubble.
twisted machinery an d charred
walls open to the skies. On the
ground floor of one wing, however.
we found few women patiently
operating shuttles while the rain
leaked through the ceiling.
Just outside the city we saw the
main battlefield dominated by
ruins of schoolhouse where the
Red army finally halted the Ger
mans before driving them back in
a struggle between Oct. IA and
Dec. 16 Atop the school was "A
hooded figure The mayor said he
was lookout to see that the Ger
mans never come back
The ground of the Kalinin sector
is too muddy and wet for large
scale battles, but the Germans are
constantly probing Russian de.
fenses in vast salient thrust far
ther west than Smolensk.
The nearest living German to
Kalinin is 70 miles away. Col. An.

KALININ, Russia, June 8-lR--
The City of Kalinin, which was
a battlefield during two months of
the bitter winter fighting, is now
a scene of devastation equal to
anything in France during the last
war, although the front today is
some 70 miles to the west
Kalinin, northwest of Moscow, is
more preoccupied with healing the
wounds of the winter struggle than
in watching the new engagements
in the west, centered around a
deep spearhead thrust into the
