WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The
w ominous menace of Soviet
Russia bulked larger in the eyes
of the peoples of Middle Europe
today, as the result Of Josef
Stains failure to appear at the
Casablanca conference.
Diplomats repr esenting the
exiled governments of the Baltic
states, of Poland, Yugoslavia,
and, to a lesser extent, Greece
and Czecho-Slovakia were frank
ly uneasy as they studied the re-
ports of the momentous meeting
between President Roosevelt and
Prime Minister Churchill.
One experienced man along
Embassy Row, who did not wish
his name to be used, said:
ct would have been much
better II Stain had entered into
a political agreement concerning
postwar planning with the two
great 0cfnOCracles.
1.-THE peoples whose land adj
joins Russia's would have felt
much safer IL Stain had emerged
from this conference as a con-
structive force, rather than an
enigmatic, destroying figure.
"Stalin apparently has his own
plans for n postwar wOrld--and
he does not intend to share them
with any one"
DIPLOMATIC circles had ex-
~ pected a military accord be-
tween Britain and America, and
they voiced their pleasure that
that had been achieved. But they
had expected far more than that
some assurance, at least, that
Russia would not be peril after
the war is over.
Another representative Of a
Central European country said:
"Stalin still Is avoiding any
commitments. Nothing has been
done to bridge that wide gap
that exists between the political
philosophy of Soviet Russia and
the political philosophy of the
United Nations.
"On the contrary, the failure
Of Stain to accept the Invita-
ton to the conferences would
seem TO indicate a still greater
widening of that gap. It Is q
great pity that he did not see
At to meet with Britain and
America.
1.-THE very least that we can
say Il that 1t IL evident there
II a lack Of complete frankness
on Stains part In dealing with
the United Nations"
TN TALKING with representa-
Il tives of European nations, the
undercurrent of a fear of COM
munism after the war is always
readily sensed. Many believe
that Russia will attempt TO
seize upon the postwar turmoil
in Europe to conquer from
within, through her own fifth
column" of Communist cells.
At the start of the war, il Is
said, Russia hoped to be able TO
remain aloof-and emerge as
the dominant ruler of an ex-
hausted Europe. Hitlers attack
on Russia upset that plan--but
II is feared that Stain still
clings to il in a revised form.
To that end, Europeans say.
Stain hopes TO win the peace"
and to dominate the postwar
reconstruction period, claiming
that right because Of Russia's
battle against Hitler.
II is pointed out that Russia
has never permitted United
Nations military observers TO
accompany her armies; that she
insists that the Allies take her

War Outlook
Roosevelt, Churchill Aims
Viewed by Loyman
BY PAUL MALLON

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The
w evelt-Churchill promise
OF heavy actions, great battles
and smashing victories TO come
will naturally stimulate the in
quisitive imaginations of Amer
leans who. like myself, know
nothing of the plans-and should
know nothing.
Yet a careful comprehensive
look by us at the obvious mill
tary situation may do much TO
clarity our thinking and eX-
pectations.
uITLER'S retreating troops
H in Russia are seeking refuge
on defensive line that is
probably half as long as they
have occupied.
As the Reds advance, they
must run increasingly into the
same obstacle which hindered
Hitler; namely, extensive COM
munication lines.
Even if cracking morale de-
moralizeS the NaZi forces on the
eastern front, Hitler can still
hope 10 maintain some sort of
defensive line IN Poland and the
Balkans 10 protect the homeland
and central European conquests
temporarily.
60 ALSO in the west, Hitler
~ has been pushing civilians
out of Marseille, apparently in
anticipation that one of the
Roosevelt Churchill heavy ac-
tons" will be an invasion of
southern. France.
Hitler could thus let Italy go
and try indefinitely TO hold the
small, ill-gotten empire that he
has acquired in the center of the
continent.
He may try invasion of Tur-
key and has threatened in
vaSion of Spain, but the pros
pect of invading Spain has faded
since the bombing of Berlin
showed the Spanish what would
happen to their cities if they
let Hitler in.
A Nazi air-borne invasion of
the Suez from Crete is not un-
likely.
0UR immediate objective Is
" the humiliation of Nazi
forces in Tunisia. The British
American forces should accom-
plish this in coming weeks.
Then invasion of Italy seems
called for, rather than an attack
on the southern coast of France,
which would entail long COM
munication lines.
The British have armies at
home supposedly available for
invasion.
If Hitler moves too much to
the south of France, they could
conce ivably strike directly
against the formidable prepared
fortresseS across the channel,
although Hitler has an army of
100000 to 100000 fairly good
troops to dispose upon the west
ern ramparts of his continental
holdings.
A more enticing point for
British invasion is Norway, and
here is where the German radio
has been expecting it.
CERTAINLY Hitler (now
~ nearing defeat at such
rapid pace that Mr.. Roosevelt
talks of unconditional surren-
der as the only term of peace)
is digging himself in on shorter
last-ditch internal lines, letting
Russia, and perhaps Italy, go.
Unless he collapses before
spring, these lines must be
cracked by us TO attain our
terms.
The mourning in Nazi news
and funeral dirges played over
the Berlin radio is not, UNI
happily. the good signs of Ger
man cracking that the Ameri-
can public wants to believe. II
the gnashing of teeth were en-
tirely authentic, the end is in
deed at hand.

so she hasn't a lot of household
duties to keep her busy. She feels
that there are a lot of women who
might give some hours each week
to driving-Motor Corps require
ments are only 200 actual driving
hours a year. A great many women
have the idea that Motor Corps
work is full-time job-but it can
be or not, just as your own free
time allows. And if you can't drive
a car every day, all day, you can
still be a great help even part time.
The Motor Corps needs more

Mrs. Simon and her husband are
both native Washingtonians. She
graduated from Goucher College

deal of time dabbling with painting
She was a member of the Commu-
nifty Chest Speakers Bureau and
that's where she got her first speak
ing experience.
She finds one OF the most inter-
esting Motor Corps assignments is
seeing Red Gloss field directors and
Clubmobile workers off to parts un-
known, and then driving them about
on their return and hearing the
stories Of their adventures. And
she loves taking the convalescent
