of our diplomatic and military
policies. We have taken ii be-
cause of the undaunted courage
and sacrifice with which the
Russians we're bearing the heav-

also our war.
RUSSIANS LACK FACTS
Their present great successes
are expected 10 buttress the
view point of their representa-
tives on the political commission,
But now it is reported that the
British Amer IN viewpoints
also may be buttressed by plain
speaking about some military
facts of life that few Russians
outside the Kremlin know, and
that their admirers in this coun-
try ignore.
We can say TO the Russian del
egates:
Sure, you saved us last year
and thanks. But were saving
you this year! Sure, your often
sive's wonderful, but without
our help where would il be?'

Attitude

ALGIERS, Oct. 14.-(P) - The

tone toward Italy in her new role
of co-belligerent.
Today's editorials, in substance,

1910, when Mussolini's government
declared war on France as she

Rene Janon, writing in the Der

French attitude in the form Of a
fable:
Once upon a time certain ex-
allied man kept a store in Rome
under the sign Grand Fascist

''In a fit of semi-lunacy, he
plunged dagger between the Shout
ders of one of his neighbors. The
blade went in so deeply that it re-
manned in the body Of the victim
who was gravely though not NOR

Some years later, following a
memorable failure. our Roman cut

alone responsible for all his misfor-
tunes. threw him out and left
Rome for Palermo where he open

blades and reversible handles our
