would permit the Germans to re-
treat to more defensible positions in

Main Issue
Consequently, the second front
and the adoption Of an integrated
joint military strategy for the Eu-
ropean war, in lieu Of the appar-
emily independent operations In the
east and west, constitute the main
issue Of the conference, In the Rus
sian view.

Churchill with Soviet Premier Jo-

Though relatively little Is known
Of Russias postwar plans, the So
Wet position Is clear on at least two
points: Their insistence on 1941
frontiers and their desire not to de-
stroy Germany but only to crush
her militarily.
The Kremlin Is known to regard
the Baltic countries, the western
Ukraine, western White Russia,
Bessarabia and part Of Bukovina as
integral parts Of the Soviet Union,
and, in the words Of the Commun-
LIST organ Pravda, will not tolerate
discussion Of them "arly more than
the United States will discuss the
boundaries Of California"
So far as Germany Is concerned,
the Soviets have diSclaimed any in
tention Of ravaging the Reich al

on compensation for material loss
es caused by the Nazi armies.

"By winter" he said, I'VE shall be
closed In upon Hltler's central for
tress Of Europe and be making our
dispositions for the grand assault
by all arms next year"
SHUTS prediction Of advances into
southeastern Europe was the strong
est hint yet dropped by an authori-
tative source Of an invasion Of the
Balkans. However, guerrilla and
partisan activity In both Jugo-Slavia
and Greece with liaison with the
Allied naiddle-eastern command has
foreshadowed such o thrust.
Partisans already claim to hold
one-third 4 Jugoslavia, including q
sizeable stretch Of the Dalmatian
coast opposite Allied-held southern
Italy.
SHUTS, whose arrival In Britain
was announced Oct. 5, was known
to be lending considerable aid to
the Anglo American command In his
role as the empires leading elder
statesman and warrior. Almost a
year ago, he made a similar speech
foreshadowing the North African Of
fensive.
While every ally will go all out in
the final offensive next year, SHUTS
said, ':.the United States, the latest
freshest and most potent newcomer
into the field, may have to play the
decisive part In conducting the last
act in the great war drama. -
SHUTS aid the United States in
creasing participation in the war
''also will be the best justification
for the all-importanG part it is like
ly to play in peace and in build
ing up the new world thereafter"
"The hopes and prayers Of the
old world" he said, "are with its
most powerful offspring. For no ma
ton in history has so great and
honorable q destiny been marked
out by the course Of events. None
ever had so high mission Of good
will. On none have such high
hopes been built"

Earlier Decision
The circuit courts dismissal was
based upon an earlier decision OF
the supreme court in q case involving
similar charges against the Virginia
Electric and Power Company. The
questions In that case were whether
the Virginia company had "coerced'
its employees by issuing bulletin
board announcements and making
speeches during union organization
Ell activities.
The supreme court ruled in the
Virginia case that such demonstra-
tons against labor organizations by
employers were legitimate express

guarantees freedom Of speech, and
not prohibited under the Labor Re
lations law unless the company ex-

tube case because 1t declined to
hear arguments but rejected the
governments appeal without express
sing any formal opinion.
The government, in It's appeal, de-
ciared that In the Virginia case II
had not put facts concerning coer-

that In the tube case excerpts OF
