RecaIIe d After
Remarks in Russia

WASHINGTON, Mar. 10.
(UP) - An official repri-
mand or perhaps the recall
of Ambassador William H.
Standley were among the
possible courses suggested today as
the United States sought to smooth
the sensation caused by his criticism
Of the Soviet Unicn.
Pending receipt of a requested
report on the affair, officials were
lied bluntness with which STANDBY
charged that Russia was concealing
the true extent of American aid:
EMPHASIS ON UNITY
They were concerned lest the eX-
element which followed Standley's
remarks might divert attention from
the main objective of the United
Nations-the crushing of Germany
and japan. The emphasis now is
upon Allied unity, particularly in
view of the impol oant United Ma
tions consultations which are being
planned for the near future.
1t was becoming clear, meanwhile.
that Standley's statements in Mos
COW would not interfere with the
American lend-lease program and
that Russia was being assured that
the United States has no intention
of meddling in the Soviet'S internal
affairs.
GOVT VIEWPOINT ....
The administration viewpoint was
that Standley's remarks provoked
a most unfortunate situation, and
that if he felt the way he has been
represented in Moscow dispatches
he shoult: consult his home govern
ment and certainly not air his views
in such public fashion.
Standley may feel now, according
to some observers here, that he has
outlived his usefulness in Moscow
and may ask to be relieved. Unless
his report to the state department
provides a far different version of
the STANDBY remarks than has ap-
reared in the newspapers. an official
rep imand appeared likely. An au-
thoritative source said that it was
improbable that Standley would be
recalled Immediately. But the pos
sibility was not ruled out entirely,

ported that the planes arrived in
