 Hand in hand with the field serv- ice goes the hospital service which handles liaison work for the sick and wounded.

Rx RAYMOND CHAPTER

Washington, March live have nothing to gain and much to lose by allowing our relations with So- viet Russia to 90 down the hill as they have been going recently.
 Ambassador Standley obviously has ended his usefulness at Moscow It would not be surprising to see him brought home at an early date That is the expectation here.
 Some other things need to be done also.
 We need to stop this talk, which however well-meant, only foments mutual suspicion between us. Vice. President Wallace made his unfor- tunate reference to the danger of a double-cross with good intentions. But such Q remark instead of re- moving suspicion, only breeds 1t.
 
 We need some better contacts with Russia at once.
 When Joseph E. Davies was on his mission to Moscow, we had prob ably the best relations between the two governments that have existed at any time since we recognized the Soviet regime in 1883. Davies was a capitalist, and made no effort to conceal his health. He lived like a plutocrat in Moscow. And the Rus sianS liked it. They never have cared much for American pinks. They like Americans to be capital ists, and if possible big industrial ists. They admire big American in- dustry more than anything else.
 They liked Willkie and treated him like a hero. They got on fa- mously with General Patrick Hur- ley, q conservative, a wealthy Hoover Republican who hasn't Communist hair in his silver thatch. They al- ways made General Hurley give them an Indian war whoop. They took him right out into battles and their farewell salute to him was, "See you in Berlin"
 Why do we allow such talent to go to waste? Why do we keep in Moscow someone that the Soviet government regards with iTldiffer- ence and who now offends them? The Russians have demonstrated that they like good American capi- talists like Willkie, Pat Hurley and Joe Davis. Why can't we take a tip and use them some more right now?
 Another thing would help. Can't we get across the idea in America that you don't have to love Com munism to be in favor of helping Russia? There are no stronger ad- vocates of aid to Russia than these three capitalists I have mentioned. They are realistic in the way that Stalin Is realistic. Why do some of our people try to sell aid to Rus sia on the questionable argument that Communism is changing in Russia, that Russia is going eapi- talist. that there ig freedom of re-

TRATNEES LOSING
 HOURLY INCREASE
S74 at United Aircraft Has Wage Agreement Disap-
 proved By WLB

Boston, March 1I-(UP)-The regional war labor board today an- nounced decisions on wage proposals affecting 4,O00 employees of five New England corporations.
 The board approved these wage agreements:
 A new wage schedule for about 775 factory hourly-rated employees of the Connecticut Telephone and Electric Go. of Meriden which will increase average straight-time rates about 2.6 cents per hour.
 An increase of i've cents hourly for straight time and eight cents overtime for 200 freight handlers at the Jarka Corp, Searsport, Me.
 The board disapproved these wage agreements:
 A proposal to give 874 trainees a 10-cent hourly increase with auto- matic increases of five cents per hour every 30 days at the Pratt & Whitney and Vougft- -Sikorsky divi- sions of the United Aircraft Corp. of East Hartford.
 A voluntary three per cent wage rise affecting 2,000 employees of the U. s. Envelope Go. of Springfield, in company units scattered from Boston to St. Louis.
 The board disapproved the form of an application for wage in- creases at the Waterbury Steel Ball O., Waterbury, Conn, but ap- proval section of the application which set up specific minimum and maximum rates for 21 specific occu- pations. This part of the applica- ton was retroactive to last De- cember 8.

ligion in Russia, and in short that Russian Communism Is practically just the same as the American way?
 Our people don't believe that kind of propaganda. They don't like communism and resent any propa- ganda effort abroad or at home to sell 1t to them with sugar coating.
 Why can't our government sonle- how, Elmer Davis with his 4,000 em- ployes and a good many million of dollars, get across to the Ameri- can people that 1t isn't @ matter of pertaining Communism at all-but a matter of helping an ally that is fighting to smash the same enemy that we are fighting?
 Churchill and Stalin don't get along. Uncle Joe is quite bitter toward Churchill.
 Yet the relations between Great Britain and Russia are very much better than ours with Russia. The reason is, that thanks to Churchill the British people are on a realistic and not sentimental basis toward Russia.
 Tn less than "A hours after Ger many attacked Russia in June of l94l, Churchill told his people what the score was. Churchill said he had fought Communism for twenty five years and took back nothing that he had said. He said Nazism was indistinguishable from the worst features of Communism. But Churchill said he would help any, body that was fighting the Nazis.
 Why not stand on that?

 The Rainbow Corner does not have beds but acts as clearing house for otther clubs with sleep ing quarters. At War Department request, the Red Cross makes nominal charges for service 50 cents for three B's (bed, bath and breakfast) and 20 cents for lunch and dinner.
 It takes no guessWork to prove the Red Cross program is popular with the service men. In one typ ical week the clubs in the British Isles sold 237,000 snacks, 33,000 meals, S4,000 beds. The London clubs alone in one week provided: eight dances (including partners), eight movies three tea dances, three concerts, four lectures, two evening boxing cards, eleven classes in such diverse subjects as bridge, moxing, golf, and four cabarets with topflight stars.
