Whether our Russian associates
will consent to participate is
moot question. 1t depends on the
progress of the tripartite confer
ence now being held in Moscow.
The American and British lead
ers are most anxious for Premier
Marshal Stain or Foreign Com
missar Molotov to meet with
them.
President Roosevelt said some
time ago he would be willing to
travel far to meet the Russian
leader, who in his dual capacity

OF inevitable difficulties could be

sions Of this war when they operate
upon ourselves? We have travelled
far from the first disunited days,
when the declaration of war sent
some men loping around the Capitol
with tomahawks, in the belief that
the time had come to scalp the
labor movement at last; and when
labor rejected the very thought
OF giving up the right to strike.
We are calmer now, and to a
measurable degree, closer in pur-
pose.
But if we are going to do, in our
own way, what we expect of
Italians and Frenchmen and all
others, I do not see how we can
permit an economic civil war in
America on the question of prices.
l think anybody who Is for one
world has to be for subsidies that
will let the farmer live and for
food prices that will let the war
worker live. That is unity. We
demand it Of our Allies. Can we

serious differences Of opinion
have arisen and the American
delegation is working hard to
smooth them out. How successful
will be the efforts depends en-
tirely on the Russians.
Stain knows exactly what he
wants out Of the war-besides
the defeat Of the enemy. He
considers that his armies are con-
tributing overwhelmingly to the
Nazi doom and feels strongly that
without Russia's continued par
ticipation, Britain and the United
States could be defeated even
now by the Axis.
Russia has definite ideas about
peace, the postwar world and the
reorganization of Europe.
Cannot Betray Pledges.
Various committees of the
downtrodden European nations
which have been formed in Mos
cow are regarded by the Soviet
government as their real repre-
sentatives. Some of the govern
ments in exile are viewed by the
Soviet leaders as no longer rep
reSenting the actual trends in
their own country, and are mere
figureheads of a world which no
longer exists.
The Moscow government may
be correct in its assumption. But
the American and British gov
ernments have pledged them
selves to re-establish the sover-
eighty of these countries after
the war is won. Until free elec-
tions have taken place in the
liberated territories, the accep-
tance of the Russian viewpoint
would mean betraying our pledg-
es. This, the Washington ad-
ministration can not do.
The divergence of opinion be-
tween the Russians and ourselves
on this matter is only one of the
many examples of the Difficult
ties Secretary of State Hull is
encountering in Moscow, and 1t
appears as if the gulf between
our viewpoint and that of our
associates is still great.
The whole military and politi-
cal strategy of the United Nations
needs a thorough going over. 1t
will not be difficult to get Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Mr.. Church.

Stain or Molotov is willing to

Nimitz Foresees Ddy
OF Round d-the-C|ock
Raids on Japanese p
By the Associated Press

~ bAc hSoOSidLcu IeSS.
HONOLULU, Oct. 28.-The COM
mander in chief of the United Pa
cific Fleet confidently foresees the
day when the same 'round-the-
clock air bombardments now pound
ing Germany will hit at the Japa-
nese homeland.
Declaring Allied victory is certain,
Admiral Chester w. Nimitz said in
Navy Day address that Japan S
total air strength already has de-
chned and her presently powerful
armies inevitably must be pulled
in as enemy shipping losses mount.
Once adequate bases have been
secured close to the japanese home
land-'this will be done"-Japan
will know what Germany suffers
day after day and night after night
in attacks from the air" the ad-
miral told the Honolulu Chamber of
Commerce yesterday.
Sees End Before 1949.
He said he did not know when
the war would end. but expressed
belief it would be "over long before
any gloomy prediction of l949."
Asserting hard days are ahead,
with the final showdown inevitably
a clash of armies, the admiral was
optimistic over progress of the air
war.
His tJapan's) total air strength
has declined" he said. "as evidenced
by his failure to establish air su-
periority in the New Guinea Solo
mons area, which has become a sink
hole for his ships, planes and men.
1t is doubtful if ever again he
Will reach in the air the peak of eff
ficlency or strength he attained
when he destroyed the Prince of
Wales and Repulse British warshps
sunk off Malaya. " = His total air
strength will gradually dwindle to
the point where it must be kept at
home or suffer total destruction"
Japs More Than Held.
Taking an overall view, Admiral
Nimitz said global strategy decisions
to direct the major United Nations
effort against Hitler while holding
Japan were wise
Japan has not only been held"
he added, but has been driven back
at important points and she has
taken severe losses in the air and in
her merchant fleet"

A Tin-Horn Armuqeddon

19ZU, the late warren Stone,
chief Of the Brotherhood OF Loco
motive Engineers, launched a
farm-labor movement. Here, in
1924, the La Toilette convention
was held. Cleveland was the only
important city carried by La Fol-
lette that year.
Hence, politically this is the old
farmer-labor movement come to
life. It's whipping boys will be
the railroads (Wallace), the big
corporations (Reuther), some of
the more conservative farm or
ganizations and big fellers gen.
orally.
1t may be worth while to watch
and see whether this affair
means that the assorted oppo-
nents of everything are using
this means of protesting against
Roosevelt. Possibly they hope to
capitalize on the present strain
between the administration in
Washington and labor. 1t is
characteristic of American radi-
Gals, that, sooner or later, they
turn against their heroes when
they get into power. Over 40
years ago they won the mayor
atty for Tom L. Johnson, and
turned against him when he con-
ceived it to be his job to run a
city government instead of a
soup kitchen. Maybe these boys
are feeling about F. D. r. what
they felt about Johnson.
But to surmise that they will
bolt the great leader in 1914 is
dangerous. The President has an
infinite capacity to hitch such
malcontents to his star. In 1914
there will be no other star for
their kind to hitch to.
Probably this Cleveland to-do
is just a bit of farmer-labor
saber rattling to warn F. D. r.
that he cannot succeed without
them. But, incidentally, it shows
us how old the New Deal really
is and how sterile of issues is the
leftist movement in this country.
Sockless Jerry Simpson would
feel perfectly at home here.

'Sman-Time Fdscists'
For Criticism Of owl
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. Oct. 2S.-Elmel
Davis. director of the Office of Wal
Information, told the Overseas Press
Club yesterday that some criticisms
of Owl are the work of small time
Fascists who remain crawling in the
woodwork and are just beyond the
reach Of indictment"
Mr.. Davis, discussing published
stories of Owl activities and policies
which he asserted were in error, said
that "denials coming several editions
or day later than the original story
get only three lines"
The Owl chief said he believed
the majority of newspaper column
lists were able men who attempted
to confirm stories, but, he added
there are some who are not so
particular, and print fantastic fic-
tionS."
Mr.. Davis said critical stories con-
cerning the Owl ARE springing up
again and added: Perhaps it is
only colncidental with the fact that
we have asked Congress for an ap-
preparation of s50oO,oOo for the
overseas branch"
One such story, he said. was that
the Owl had its own foreign policy.
I'VE would be fired if we tried it."
he said
Referring to Congress failure to
appropriate the amount requested
by Owl for its domestic field service
which handled releases of other
agencies, Mr.. Davis said:
The other agencies will have 300
or 400 officers of their own and
much more than S1,250,OOO the
amount spent by the Owl branch
last year, will be spent, and there is
likely to be more confusion and
contradiction, with several agencies

In a public forum sponsored by

istrator E. R. Stettinius, jr., said
perhaps lease-lend was mot perfect

Mr.. CoWles shared the forum plat
form with D. Graham Hutton, Mid
west director of the British Infor-
nation Services, who declared that
without mutual aid leaSe-lend) the
United Nations would have lost the
war and lost it quickly"
Mr.. Cowles remarked that reverse

than most Americans think. Two

African invasion were British" ="
There was fusing of equipment
American planes were not equipped
for desert warfare, but the British
stripped the filters from all their
planes in the United Kindom and
gave them to the American forces
they supplied half a million land
mines, and they gave portable run
ways and hospital units"
He said repayment of lease lend
would be almost impossible"
He asserted some lease-lend
transactions may look suspicious on
the surface" but said any reason

to let him stand dismally alone on

Pamper Themselves.
Some American internationalists
pamper themselves just the least
little bit. They seem to feel that if
their ultimate ideas are all right
their present actions are relatively
unimportant. Thus the overWhelm-
ing majority which passed the Full

cludes the majority which. voted
against food subsidies 1t includes
men who are for unity of all the
peoples of the world, each with
each, but who are relatively uncon-
cerned about unity between food
producer and food consumer in
America.
Yet that is an immediate war
issue. If the congressional majority
sincerely desires stable world
order, it ought also to be hellbent
against initiation in the United
States, which would certainly be no
help to stable world order.

to lay ourselves open to the
criticism that we are only for the
kind of unity that doesn't hurt.
