QUEBEC, Aug. 81 - up -
Prime Minister Winston Church.
i'll said in an address today that
the recent conference here was
concerned principally with in
flaming" the war against Japan,
with whom Russia is at peace,
and that therefore it would have
been an embarrassment TO the
Soviet Union TO have been repre-
sented.
The British premier said, how
ever, that it was hoped soon to
hold a United Nations confer
ence at which the Soviet would
be represented.
Such a unity of decision be-
tween the three great opponents
of Hitherto tyranny" would be
greatly desirable, he said.
Churchill said he did not
blame Russia for any criticism
it had levelled at it's allies for
not having opened a second
front on the continent.
MUST BE SURE
He said that whenever a Sec
ond front was opened on the. con-
tinent it would be done only
when there was every chance Of
military success and would not
be swayed by political consid-
erations.
Churchill said he was looking
forward to the opening of a
third front, presumably referring
to Japan.
Italy, he said, was paying a
terrible penalty" for having
been misled by the Germans.
The terrific aerial a C X
against Germany, Churchill said,
would not have been possible
without the magnificent stand of
the Russians against Hitler's
forces.
