This Changing World
Litvinoff Trip PIonned Before Breok
With Polond, but Moy Eose Pressure

few sentences out Of Prime Min
lister Churchill's speeches and
making them sound as if the
British government intended to
sacrifice the nations of Europe
for the sake Of political expe-
diency.
This, Of course, is one of the
most serious dangers Of the
present.
Need Captive Nations Aid.
In our plans to invade Europe,
we must definitely rely on sup
port from the subjugated nations
which have been awaiting Amer
ica's arrival ever since the Japa-
nese attacked Pear Harbor.
Nazi propaganda describing
America as a defeated nation be-
fore it actually began to fight,
because of the surprise Jap at
tack, made no dent on the peo-
pie across the Atlantic, who be-
lieve in Americas might and are
confident they will receive q fair
deal after Hitler has been de-
feated.
It would be unfortunate If
propaganda, at which the Ger
mans are past masters, could
convince those leading the open
or underground revolutionary
movements in Europe that we
are interested only in defeating
the Nazis and afterward will be
willing to pass the hand to ma
tions still thinking in terms of
power politics. The leaders then
might give up and our expected
support would be lost completely.
A typical example of how high
our main stock in trade in inter-
national politics-absolute fair
ness and honesty-stands, was
the landing in North Africa. Had
the people of that area and their
commanding officers not believed
that we had come to fight the
common enemy without any ul-
terror motive there is no question
that we would have had a heavy
war on our hands before We could
establish a bridgehead at any
point. The firm belief that we
went there to fight the Germans
and nothing else turned a diff
cult operation into a relatively
easy one.
Want More Indulgence.
The same situation will exist
when we decide to land in
Europe. The cooperation of the
millions of men and women, dis
armed as they are, and of the
oorly-equipped but goodnight
ing organizations which exist
throughout European territory
will be of great assistance.
Should these people, however,
lose faith in US, the operations
would be much more difficult.
For these reasons, the Ameri-
can Government hopes-and it is
believed that these hopes have
been communicated to the Rus
sian Ambassa dor-that Moscow
will decide to be more indulgent
toward its future neighbors and
will not strengthen the hand of
the common enemy by creating
new governments in exile in
Russia to compete with those al
ready in existence.

The Political Mill
AZ Election Will Be Unfortunate Compoien
Full Of Personal Resentment, Bitterness

have their influence on the cam
paign. The Republicans are
hitting hard already at the New
Dealers with whom the Presi-
dent has surrounded himself
for example, Harry Hopkins. who
has become a chief target. With
two Republicans in the cabinet
and many others in important
war jobs, however, the Presi-
dent is in a position to reply to
that line of attack.
Talk Arouses Bitterness.
During his speech In Philadel-
phia Senator Guffey said: I'VE
must make sure that our party,
our principles, our policies and
our personnel, together with the
many loyal, patriotic Republicans
who have really adjourned poll
tics to serve the country, shall
continue to direct the Nation
after 1914"
The Pennsylvania Senator
sought to put the blight of lack
of patriotism on those who are
opposing the reelection of the
President. He said that mind of
the Nation is confused because
there is a two-pronged war in
this country-in which part Of
us are out to beat the Axis the
others are out to beat the Presi-
dent" This is a hard saying, and
one that will arouse great bitter
ness among Republicans who are
in the armed forces. have sons
in those forces. or who are aid
ing the war effort in other ways.
The same goes for the anti-New
Deal Democrats who oppose a
fourth term.
The Republicans are not pull
ing their punches in this row. 1t
would be ridiculous to expect the
New Dealers to do so. The whole
thing adds up, therefore, to an
unfortunate campaign in which
personal resentment and bitter
ness will manifest itself. In the
midst of war this is tough going.
War Appears Secondary.
Greed for power and greed for
money are the handmaidens of
any war. Too many groups,
whether they be organized work.
ers or capitalists, are using the
war as the means to boost their
gains. Sometimes the war ap-
pears to be a secondary thing.
What's needed in this country is
more good nature and a single
ness of purpose. There Is danger
that the American people will
miss both.
The Republican factions in
New Jersey, which have threat
ened to go into a devastating
struggle over gubernatorial
nominee this year, have, through
their leaders, united on former
Senator Walter E. Edge as their
candidate. Mr. Edge was Cover
nor of the State during the last
war and will be 50 years next No
vember-one of the so-called
elder statesmen.
New Jersey is one of the very
few States electing Governors this
year. The COP believes it hasan
excellent chance to win. First,
the State went strongly Repub-
lican in 1912, electing. among
other officers, Republican SEN
ator. Second, Gov. Edison, DEM
ocrat. is engaged in a struggle
against the Democratic boss of
the State, Mayor Frank Hague Of
Jersey City. Hague has sought
to have former Gov. Harry Moore
run again. The outcome of this
election will give some idea of
the political trend in the Eastern
industrial section of the country.

The ambassador was instructed
last January to return to Russia
at his convenience. 1t is merely
a coincidence that he leaves at a
time when the governments-in-
exile Of Eastern and Southeastern
European countries are seething
with excitement as a result OF the
dispute between Poland and Rus
sia.
It is believed here that as a
result Of conversations between
Ambassador Litvinon and high
American officials he will be able
to convey to Moscow the feeling
in Washington that all pending
problems between Russia and her
future neighbors should be left
in abeyance until such time as
the enemy can not take advan-
tage of any dissension or argu-
ment among members Of the
United Nations.
The ambassador further will be
able to say that should the Soviet
government decide to extend
suspension" Of diplomatic rela-
tions with Poland into a definite
break, it will be extremely diff
cult for the American and Brit
ish Governments to recognize a
new Polish government-in-exile
in Moscow since both London and
Washington are pledged to recog-
nize the present regime in Eng
land.
May Hurt Small Nations.
And Mr.. Litvinof has been told
that creation Of two governments
of a country which is now en-
tirely under the Nazi boot may
have a most unfortunate reaction
on all small United Nations coun-
tries.
Moreover, Sucn a situation
would provide the Nazi propa-
ganda machine with a tremen-
dous weapon to WELD against
rebel leaders in Greece, Yugo-
slavia and even in France to con-
vince them that the major men,
bers of the United Nations are
arguing among themselves over
the spoils Of the war.
OF course, the American and
British Governments have gone
on record as favoring restoration
Of the invaded countries to their
pre-war independence and free
dom. But the Nazi propaganda
machine can twist speeches and
statements to their advantage by
inserting few words or taking

REDUCING NUMBER
OF BOOKS FAVORED
Plan to tailor" Current
Gasoline Coupons May
Be Discarded

Cutting down the number OF gaso-
line ration books issued ,ther than
tailoring currently valid books or
decreasing coupon value may be the
method of meeting the anticipated
gasoline shortage in the east, it was
indicated by John j. Dunn, man
ager of the OPA district office here.
No official words has been re-
ceived at the ration board on pro-
cedure to be used in cutting down
gasoline sales, but officials feel
tailoring will not be ordered because
of the huge task involved and that
cutting of coupon values would re-
suit only in complications for con-
sumers who now have the minimum
allowance needed to get them to
work.
1t is believed applications for all
future allotments will receive es-
pecially careful study and efforts
will be made to reduce the mileage
totals submitted.

ton Experts to Be Well

Mexico extends its open arms to
educators of the United States who
will bring aid in the fields of edu-
cation, public health and sanitation,
revealed Rev. James E. Walter, Bos-
ton, associate secretary of the Mis-
sions Council of Congregational and
Christian Churches in the United
States, in an illustrated lecture on
Our Neighbor, Mexico" at the
Second Congregational church
forum last night.
Mexico has adopted the United
States as friendly ally, Mr.. Walter
informed a large audience that at
tended the final session of the rally
of Pilgrim Fellowships Of the Maui
gatuck Volley Association. He de-
clared this to be miracle in view
Of the fact that approximately 100
years ago our men were fighting the
soldiers of Mexico. The reason for
this brotherly attitude is that the
United States did not send Marines
into Mexico during the world crisis
Of 1889, he said, when the oil wells
were appropriated.
Mr.. Walters pointed out that Mex
leo Is open to numerous recon-
mendations from American educa-
tors. He revealed that the first
public health department was estab-
lLshed in 1886 and the development
of mobile ambulances and hospital
clinics.
The young people joined in a
group to discuss the economic prob
lens and relations with Latin Amer
lea and the study of Spanish and
development of the Good Neighbor
policy.
