In the east, the Russian steam

and on a wider front than the
Germans ever attained. The Minsk

Red army drive have been merged
into single westward bulge bear
ing down on Wilno and Deugav-
pills, prime communication keys
for the whole Nazi defense front
from the Pripet marsh salient to
Pskov on the Baltic flank.
To the south, below the Pripet
marshes, the Russians have captur-
ed Kowel, Polish rail and road hub
city and central bastion of the Bug
river line-the Nazi so-called least
WalT' defense front set up after
partition of Poland.
It is obvious that loss of Kowel
must mean speedy Nazi withdraw

TO escape entrapment.
One Russian column from cap
tured Minsk is bearing down TO-
ward Brest Litovsk, north of Ko-
vel, along the main Warsaw-Mos-
COW rail and highway route. Anoth-
er is moving westward along the
main Warsaw-Moscow rail and
highway route. Another is moving
westward along the northern fringe
cf the great marsh lands with its
position not clearly defined. Below
the marshes from Kowel Urkrain-
ian forces extend more than 100
miles to a junction far east of
Finsk with Red armies in White

Between these lines lies the PR.

for the invaders ii they fail to es-

Russian capture of Kowel lends
new color to the conclusion that
Il general German retreat in the
east is in progress. 1t must GER
tainly mean Nazi flight from the

PRUSSIA AND THE PEACE"
by Sir Bernard Pares (Macmillan;
$3.50.
Sir Bernard Pares, who is now
teaching at Cornell, has produced
enc of the few tempered and bal
anced studies of Russias relation
to the future of the world I have
read. Sir Demands book is called
Russia and the Peace" 1t is not
q long book, it contains no Tuning
prejudices, it never minimizes the
Russian mistakes. But also it does
not minimize Western mistakes Ell
Their, which is as fair as it is I'M
usual.
Sir Bernard says one of the most
frequent catchwords one hears in
Russia is that it is full of commu-
njsts, but WITHOUT communism. This
is a mot based on a conflict that
most of us have forgotten-to wit,
the battle between Stain and Trot-
sky. They divided over number
of matters, but chiefly over the
question of world revolution. Trot-
sky wanted to trip up the world;
his main interest was in extend
ing the revolution to Germany,
England, the United States and so
forth. Stain, who might have been
a Russian priest if he had not
been confined to a punishment cell
for minor offense in his SEM
mary, has. Sir Bernard points out,
always wanted to develop Russia.
It was this situation that en-
barrassed communists the world
over. The world revolution be-
came the objective of many COM
rlunists outside Russia, and their
effort seriously embarrassed, in
turn, Stain. He saw, Sir Bernard
says, that to improve Russian con-
dltions he must have the help of
the Western world, yet whenever
he tried for the help, ne found his
way blocked by prejudice born of
