ment was selected by Mr.. Hull above
all others to attend the vitality i'm

decided the future policy toward
Russia.
A few months ago Hull would
not have dared risked public cutlery
by taking Dunn to Quebec. His
doing now means that Undersecre-
tary of State Summer Welles, lib
eral in his attitude toward Russia,
had been supplanted (Welles has
handed in his resignation.)
There were other things also
known to the Soviet which the out

One was that the British and AM

ranged the armistice terms for
Italy without the State Department
breathing a word to the Russian
government.

NAH AIR FIGHTERS

One depressing report on German
airpower is the probability that they
now have more airplanes than at
the start of the war This is de-
spite the heavy casualties U. S.
Fortresses have imposed on the
Luftwaffe.
Reason for this belief is that the
Nazis have been able to switch from
the manufacture of bombers to
fighters. Fighters can be produced
faster and, with bombers apparent
ly abandoned completely, the Nazis
are turning out fighter planes at a
tremendous rate.
1t Is believed that German fighter
production is around 5000 to $500
planes per month. In July U. S.
British bombers destroyed 600 Nazi
lighters from British bases alone.
This does not include losses over
Sicily which must have been heavy.
However, at the rate of 600 to
LIDO fighters destroyed per month
the Nazis still have a margin to
work on. That is why U. S. pilots
continue to face tough fighting; why
the Air Forces insist they have not
yet finished their job of softening
up Germany.

LEFT IN THE COLD

When you are fighting war as
allies, and when you arrange plans
for the surrender of one of your
chief enemies, it is customary pol
icy to tell all your partners about
the surrender terms. At least, you
are courteous enough to let them
see the terms, if for no other rea-
son than simply because you don't
want them to make separate
peace behind your back. But al
though the British Foreign Office
and the State Department have
been constantly telling Russia that
she must cooperate, they did not
even take the trouble to let the
Russians see the italian armistice
terms.
Another thing which Jared the
Russians was the fact that their
Ambassador to the exiled govern
mentS was kept in London for sew
eral months and refused a passport
to go to North Africa to confer with
the French Committee for National
Liberation.
The Russians figured that when
you are allies together, you don't
keep one ally, Russia, from talking
to another ally, the French. But
the State Department consistently
opposed having Ambassador Bog
molov go to North Africa, and the
British Foreign Office was glad to
cooperate. Here the Russians see
the hand once again of Mr.. Hull
and Jimmy Dunn
Long before this, the State De-
partment was active in trying TO
build up series of buffer states in
Hungary and Czechoslovakia against
Russia.
Among other things they gave a
ueh-cherished diplomatic passport

PASSING THE PASSPORTS

The State Department also gave
a passport to Russian Thor
Won Eckhardt of Hungary, who in
troduced the anti-semitic clauses in
the Hungarian Legislature olsen
franchising the Jews.
After Eckhardt's arrival in this
country, one State Department Of
fetal actually wrote him letter
giving him permission to set up a
Free Hungarian movement. Since
Won Eckhardt was famous for his
anti-Russian views, this would mean
the. creation of an anti-Russian
Hungarian Government to serve as
buffer state.
When liberal Sumner Welles
heard of this letter, he wrote an
other stating that the State De-
partment did not recognize Won
Eckhardt or any one else.
All of these things have ranked
the Russians. They have listened
to U. S. advice to win the war first
and decide the peace later. Mean
while, they have watched Secre-
tary Hull's closest advisers maneu-
vering to set up anti-Russian buf-
fer states, and making armistice
terms regarding which Russia was
not consulted.
That is why Stain finally has his
back up. That is why Russia is now
going ahead with it's own peace
plans. That is why Anthony Eden
belatedly will rush to Russia to try
to undo some of the prejudice which
Mr.. Hull, Jimmy Dunn, and the
British Foreign Office have built up
