China as Battle-Ground

The views Just expressed in an
interview by Major General Albert
c. Wedemeyer. new head of the
American forces in China and chief
of staff to GeneraliSsimo Chang
Kai-shek, may be considered as both
a return to and an extension of the
original American concept of China's
role in the grand strategy of the war
against Japan.
Down to about a year ago. the
prevailing idea was that China
should serve not only as a base for
Allied air and land forces but that
its limitless manpower, armed and
trained by Allied means. should play
an important part in the crushing
of japanese power on the Asiatic
mainland and even in Japan itself.
This concept got rude jolt with
the progress of the japanese cam
paign in South Central China which
has just split China in twain and
opened an uninterrupted overland
route between Japan and it's con-
quests from Indo-China to Burma.
The correlative revelation of China's
internal weakness and disSension
throws serious doubt on the ability
of the Chungking regime to mo-
bilize China's national strength even
with Allied assistance. Therefore,
recent speculation has tended to en-
vision the necessity of direct attacks
on Japan. with China as relatively
minor factor.
However. General Wedemeyer, in
a press conference held early this
week at Chungking, states that
China must be a major battle-ground
in the defeat of Japan. even though
American armies may have to do a
large part of the job. "In my opin-
ion,'' said he. "the japanese have
committed themselves to continent
tai strategy for the final decisive
stages of the war. Well need a con-
tinental force to close with them
and for employment of our air
forces"
This view of General Wedemeyer
seems to square with known facts.
The best available information dis
closes that the japanese government
is transplanting more and more of
its heavy industry and skilled labor
to the ASiatic mainland. together
with large proportion Of its armed
forces. The upshot may soon be so
firm grip on China and adjacent
Asiatic regions that the bombing
out of Japan's home industry and
even invasion OF its islands would
not suffice to bring about complete
collapse Of Japanese resistance. De-
struetion Of japanese power every

Steel Puy RuIino

Chairman Davis may be techni-
cally correct in saying that the War
Labor Boards decision in the steel
case does not break, nor even
bend" the Little Steel formula.
Actually, what the board did was
to take its formula out of the case
and put 1t to one side. Later on,
the President will decide whether
the formula should be abandoned,
modified or retained, and as of that
time the steel workers will know
whether they are to receive an out
right increase in wage rates all along
the line. They do not get this under
the boards present ruling. But they
DO get a number of indirect in
creases which will raise the sum of
their earnings and add to the cost
OF steel production. In this sense.
regardless of what the board NAV
say, the ruling will be infationary
In its effect, and therefore in con-
f1lct with the spirit, if not the letter,
OF the stabilization program.
The board does not know, and
apparently made no attempt to as
certain, how much additional money
Its ruling will place in the pay en-
velopes of the steel workers. There
is no doubt that the total will be
substantial, some estimates, or per-
haps guesses would be better word,
placing the average increase at
about one-half of the IT cents an
hour originally demanded by the
union. Furthermore, the increase
goes to workers who have Jared we'll
In the competition between advanc-
ing earnings and rising living costs.
The boards own calculation places
the increase in the cost of living at
between % and 30 per cent since
January l, 1941. In that same pc
rlod, however, the wage rates of
steel workers have gone up about
43 per cent and their weekly earn
ings have been boosted by about IS
per cent. Now they are to receive
more money, providing for them
still greater margin between what
they earn and what it costs them
to maintain their living standards
margin that will increase the pres
sure on the stabilization program
that results from the excess of pur-
chasing power over the supply of
goods and services.
Even the severest critic of the
board would concede, however, that
its decision might have been worse.
The form, if not the substance, of
the Little Steel formula has been
preserved intact, and if the ad-
nlinistration is really resolved to
prevent general wage increases the
boards ruling will not make its task
more difficult, and may make it
easier.

On the Record

back into the fellowship of law-abiding
and peace-loving nations" and the offer
of hope that this could eventually be
possible, combined with the absolute
reputation Of any racial theory about
the Germans as people.
Since the Presidents speech there
have been numerous other straws to
show which way the wind was blowing
The most authoritative was contained
in the speech of Stain on November s,
the eve Of the 27th anniversary of the
Russian Revolution, and the eve of our
elections 1t was the most positive
statement yet made by Stain for con-
tinuous and loyal collaboration between
the Allies and Stain explained that the
sreatest explanation of German failure
Is their race theory, which made it
impossible for them to win over the
nations they defeated, and that the
Soviet Union does not intend to re-
peat this Nazi mistake. 1t was in
Russian proyerb, I'VE do not hate the
wolf because his fur is gray, but be-
cause he eats our sheep"
This was taken up by Iya Ehrenburg,
who has conducted both the most
UIuuAllt auQ Tic UlOSG HltI1OllC press
campaign against the Germans, and in
what he now writes q new tone is to
be observed, which specifically rejects
vengeance and especially denounces
the idea Of Furnishing the children for
the sins Of their fathers.
4
A further premonition of what is now
revealed was given a week ago Sunday
in an article by Eduard Benes which
appeared in the New York Sunday
Times. In 1t DR.. Benes stated that two
or three years after occupation there
would be liberal German government.
He warned against too much confidence,
but accepted it as necessity. He also
stressed that he is not, under all condi-
tons anti-German per se-a noteworthy
statement from this Czech statesman
at the climax OF this war.
There is not going to be soft peace
for Germany-and that, as this column
has pointed out many times, has never
been the issue. The issue has been a
peace that would hold the Allies to-
gether and offer at least the hope of a
new, peaceful, cooperative Germany, as
early as We can get it.

This Changing World
By Consfastins Bro,cn

matched by any other man in the Polish
regime.
Mr.. Kwapinslk, who In his youth was
= metal worker, spent nine years In a
chain gang at Orel. where he had been
placed by the czarist regime because OF
his nationalistic and socialistic activities.
He was liberated in 1917 when Alexander
Kerenski became the head Of the Rus
sian government after the monarchy had
been abolished.
4
Later he became one Of the outstand-
ing Socialist leaders in Poland and was
an avowed enemy of Marshal Pilsudski
and the government Of the Polish
colonels." He was elected Mayor of his
native town Of Lodz In spite OF the mach
nations of the Polish government.
After Poland was invaded in 1899 by the
German and Soviet armies he tried to
escape imprisonment OF the Nazis, or
worse, and made his way eastward in
the hope that his socialistic record would
ingratiate him with the other invaders
of Poland. In spite Of his advanced
views he was considered dangerous by
the Soviet authorities and was jailed
by the Russians. He remained in con-
nnement for ~ months.
After Germany attacked Russia In
the summer of 1941, friendly relations
between Poland and the U. S. S. r. were
resumed by the q aim -Sikorsh agree
ment. Mr.. Kw.V ski once more was
a free man and went to London, where
he entered the government.
This background should make him
acceptable to all those who are striving
to see a good government established
in Poland But in the last few months
Mr.. Kwapinski has been subjected to
violent attacks from Moscow and par
ticularly from the Lublin Committee.
While his record as militant socialist
cannot be assailed, he is known to be
Polish patriot and nationalist. He
believes, as do most of the members of
the government In exile, that the only
salvation for Poland lies in maintaining
friendly relations with the U. s. s. r.
But he believes that they must be main
tanned on a basis Of reciprocity, with
Poland maintaining its absolute SOW
ereignty.
Mr.. Kwapinski favors radical social
changes in his country after the war,
but also is known to be strongly sup
porting the view that Poland must not
become satellite like the Balkan king
doms and that through actions in this
war she has earned recognition OF the
Allies as fully independent republic
