MOSCOW, Aug. 20.-The maga-
zine War and the Working Glass
states In an editorial titled Quebec
and the Soviet Union" that Quebec
is serving the interests of the Anglo
American forces and expresses their
opinion, but still does not express
the opinion of the entire Anglo
Soviet American coalition.
THE Soviet Union has only one
opinion" the article said. The
time Is ripe to change over from
words to actions. The time is ripe
to inf1ict a decisive blow from the
east and the west"
The article called for a three
power conferences which wouid both
cut down the length of the war and
prepare the peace on the basis OF
friendly collaboration of the Allies.
The editorial said that the five
previous Roosevelt Churchill con-
ferences repeatedly pointed out tha.
the main job was to ''infiict a blow
against the main enemy-Hitlerite
germany.
However" the editorial contin-
ued these conferences, in which
the Soviet Union did not participate,
did not bring about a solution of
the vital problem pertaining to the
fulflllment of the main obligation

war against the common enemy

In Washington, Undersecre-
tary Of State Welles was asked at

on the editorial. He replied that

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Undersecretary of State Sum-
ner Welles said today it must
be in King Victor Emanuels
mind that Allied troops soon
will be occupying Italy as we'll
as Sicily.
This, he told his press con-
ference, he assumed to be the
thought behind the Kings radio
message that Sicily would not be
long isolated from Italy, with
out mentioning continuance of
the war.
Mr.. Welles indicated that
nothing had been received from
the Italian government to show
what measures, if any had been
taken to make Rome an open

Der OF defective airplane engines,
Senator Truman said at press con-
ference:
The Lockland plant is one of the
worst managed we have discovered
in the country. There must be an
improvement of management or the

Maj. Gen. Oliver P. Echols. assist
ant chief of air staff, Washington,
testified production of the plant fell
ton one-sixth it's former. pace after
release Of Truman committee report
that defective engines were being
turned out.
Gen. Echols, also head OF the Army
Air Forces procurement staff, said
that the company management tried
to blame the Army for interfering
with production by requiring a too
rigid inspection procedure" and an
effort to get high degree Of inter-
changability in the engine parts.
Senator Ferguson, Republican, of
Michigan asked. isn't it true the
company deliberately dropped pro-
duction to justify to the public that
they were correct and the Army was
wrong in its new inspection pro-
cedures?"
Attitude Of officials.
Il can't go that far" Gen. Echols
replied. Il feel a contributing cause
was, the attitude of certain people
in the plant Of endeavoring to justify
themselves
Gen. Echols disclosed the Army
had considered, without reaching a
decision, taking the plant away from
Wright and turning it over to other
management but regarded this as
too drastic at the time.

It's a far cry from yachting to

an adept at both. Her cooking
is not drudgery, but a creative

Extensive Training School of the AVIS
Is Being Guided by Jacks-of:AH71udes
Mrs. Daniel G.. Long
And Mrs. Patterson
Successful Leaders
By Mary McCracken Jones

By Mary McCracken Jones
The Training School of the
American Women's Voluntary
Services is something like the
starter on a motorcar. There all
the activities of the organization
get their initial impetus, the push
that starts the wheels.
At the head of this starting
system are two women who sup
plement each other with extraor-
dinary success, Mrs. Daniel c.
Long, director, who has pushed
the starter buttons from the early
days of the organization, and her
assistant, Mrs. william Patterson,
whose level head and calm ways
dovetail so wonderfully with the
bubbling enthusiasm and wide ex-
perience of her chief.
Not a person who comes to
pat" as she is affectionately
called by her many friends, but
gets a sense Of quiet strength
and capability from the first
glance at her clear gray eyes and
well-poised head. "She can do
anything" says her chief. "She
is wonderful with people, never
jumps to conclusions, never loses
her head and never worries"
Mrs. Patterson says Of herself
that she is a jack -all-trades.
She helps in the organization and
running Of the training classes,
registers applicants, schedules
classes and, in addition, teaches
home repairs, one of the most
popular courses. Wise In the
ways of electrical gadgets, she can
cope with refractory plumbing, Is
skilled In upholstering and refln-
ishing furniture-in fact, her
hands and head, working to-
gether, are a team that is hard
to beat.
Just now she finds varied in
terest in her extension work. as
she is chairman of the AWVS
Committee on all outside con-
facts. Put into concrete words,
this means that she looks for
places where the workers of the
organization can be useful and
arranges for their placement.
Fundamental in her belief is
that there Is place for every
woman who has time to give and
the wish to do war work. Not
only is there useful and impor-
tant work for motor corps drivers.
skilled typists, medical adjutants
and other specialized services,
there is real need. too. for every
intelligent woman who wishes to
help. Mrs. Patterson and her
committee are serious about find
ing the work and fitting the right
women to it.

food stores to help customers
with point rationing, lending a
hand to bewildered clerks as well.
