Twenty midgets are employed

conflicting reality Of what
they represent, we will only
be deluding ourselves tenn
porarily.
Churchill obviously wants
most the British empire. What
Stain wants, and has always
wanted, is evident in the
record of his public state
ments and actions.
What either of them truly
desires is obviously at vari-
ance, to say the least, with
the fondest hopes which Mr..
Roosevelt has proclaimed
through Mr.. Wallace and
otherwise.
Therefore, you can bet
there will be a long armistice.
Whether or not Mr.. Roosevelt
has a peace formula, the
problem is so vast (larger
than any which ever con-
fronted this world before) and
requires wholehearted accept
ance by so many conflicting
elements, that Il satisfactory
solution can only be obtain
able by progressive steps over
