RUSSIAN-FINNISH
TREATY TERMS
(The Detroit Free Press, Oct. u
BY Oswald Garrison Willard

The terms granted to Finland By
the victorious Russians have been
hailed by many newspaper COM
mentators as pretty lenient; Mau-
rice Hindus, cabling from Russia,
gives the encouraging news that
they will permit Finland to recover
how gracious!
Actually they are dreadful terms,
quite in line with the aggressive
ness of the Russians in their past
attitude toward this unhappy coun-
try and toward the Baltic States.
Moreover, there is the most
striking evidence that these terms
will not last even though counter
signed by Great Britain.
For on the day they were pub
lished there appeared in the Rus
sian press the usual violent attacks
! upon Finland which foretell further
measures of aggression.
No one would guess that Russia
treacherously attacked Finland in
the first Russo-Finnish war, as to
which the New York Times declared
that "the American sympathy is
% per cent with the Firms in their
effort to stave off invasion Of their
own soil' by what the Times called
"a dictatorship as absolute as any
other dictatorship in the world.
Finland went into the second war
after Finnish cities had been bomb
ed by Soviet airplanes in order to
recover her rights and territory.
She never had been an ally of Ger
many.
| Now what are the latest terms ?
The newspapers have made much
of the fact that the impossible in
demnity demanded last spring by
the Russians in their proposed

Liberation or Invasion?
(From Latvian Legation Memo
randum - LATVIAN-U. S. S. R.
RELATIONS)

(From Latvian Legation Memo
randum = LATVIAN-U. S. S. R.
RELATIONS)
All the wellbeing of Latvia, Lith-
uania and Estonia, the Baltic States
situated in the northeastern shores
Of the Baltic Sea, depends upon
peace, freedom of trade and Of the
seas, and general respect for
treaties and international law.
They are not military powers,
and how could they be a menace,
particularly to Soviet Russia, with
their total population of not quite
six million? The Baltic peoples
are working parts of world pro-
gress and civilization. In their
land, during the % years of inde-
pendence (191S-1940), they created
a happy life, which during the
past years has been trampelled un-
der the relentless and merciless
tread of War.
For these three small, peaceful
countries, despite their great suf-
ferings from Nazi terrorism, now
arises the prospect of being alb
sorbed by Soviet Russia.
In prosecuting the war with Ger
many Soviet Russia's armed forces
in July 1914 for the second time
crossed the Lithuanian, Latvian and
Estonian borders, and the Baltic
States again became battlefield
as in June and July 1941, when
Nazi Germany attacked the Bolshe-
vik army in the Baltic States, which
Soviet Russia had occupied illegal
ly in 1910.
Press news dispatched from Swe-
den and Switzerland describe re-
newed prosecutions by the Bolshe-
viks in occupied Lithuania. SINH
lar prosecutions are evidently TAX
ing place In the Latvian and Es-
tonian territory occupied by the
Bolshevks, who entered these Sta
tes without "a preliminary declara-
ton that Soviet Russia would res
pect their sovereignty and the in
ternational laws of warfare. TIC
the contrary, in its communiques
abroad Soviet Russia, violating In
ternationai law and the Atlantic
Charter, describes the Baltic State:
as Soviet territory to be liberia
ted" from Germany. By what
right? No such rights exist.
However, the Soviets try to jus
tify their attitude of restricting the
application of the Atlantic Charter
to the Baltic States for the benefit
of Russian territorial expansion
with historical, economic and stra
tegic arguments.

THE PERIsCOPE
By SARUNAS.

THE LITHUANIAN press in the
United States are receiving alarm
ing reports from Lithuanian refu-
gees in Sweden about the activities
of the Russian secret police which
takes over after the Red army oc-
cupies any district in Lithuania.
Arrests, executions without trial,
confiscation of property, and de-
portation to parts unknown is the
reported order of the day of this
secret totalitarian police.
1t is a bitter irony of fate that
Lithuania passes from one beastly
totalitarian regime to another. How
different is the fate of the Italians,
the French, the Belgians, and the
Dutch!
THE primate of Sweden, Bishop
Nystedt, appealed to England and
the United States to influence their
ally, Soviet Russia, and stop the
expected determination of the un-
happy Baltic peoples. .

Mr.. Dewey's. In Commute broadcasts
neither has any advantage over the other;
but if the campaign embraces 45-minute
or one hour talks the advantage would
likely be Mr. Roosevelts.
On enunciation and pronunciation, l944's
Presidential candidates are quite unlike
MIR. Dewey's voice contains no regional
quality of speech His is an acreage voice
The Presidents accent is eastern.
Verbal Trademarks
MIR ROOSEVELT says "wah': MIR. Dewey
says war" Mr. Roosevelt says Nah
frands"; Mr.. Dewey would say My
friends" The Presidents packaging of
words sounds strange to large sections of the
country; Mr.. Dewey's does not - it can
be understood everywhere without effort.
However. Mr. Roosevelt's pronunciations
are sufficiently disciplined by good enuncia-
ton. effective projection and proper breath
ing to be understood without effort.
The Presidents voice has what advertis-
ers call product appeal" The Roosevelt
voice, enunciation and pronunciation are
distinctive; they stand out and do not sound
like anyone else's Mr.. Dewey has yet to
develop his own verbal trademark.
One fact is clear: The mike will not be
handicap to MIR. Dewey. but an opPor-
tunity for him. If he can learn to exploit
fully his undoubted vocal assets; if he can
develop an informal manner of radio ad-
dress: if he avoids the pitfalls that en-
trapped Messrs. Hoover, Landon and Will
ke - he may generate more microphone
mesmerism than the President.
The Experts Disagree
lHE veteran kaltenborn says that radio
voices are less important in time of Crisis
than in time of peace Both Roosevelt and
Dewey have radio voices to translate
ideas" Bob Trout of CHS describes Mr..
Dewey's voice as quiet and sincere
Morgan Beatty says. II think it's fairly
even on the radio appeal of Roosevelt and
Dewey" But John Daily declares. Dewey
has good run-Of- the mill voice, while
koosevelt's is superb. Drew Pearson says:
Dewey will emphasize clearly, but lacks
polish on the air And Earl Goodwin laconl-
cally adds: Twelve years of radio is lot"
You, the listener. will be the final Judge.
The 1914 campaign will be fought out in
your homes via radio What you hear will
decide how you will vote.
But remember - you may decide not
with your mind but with your ears.
