EXPECT FIGURES IN WEEK

Stimson gave this explanation
of the army's casualty reporting
methods:
81 have been giving out every
week the total of army casual
ties for all theaters as recorded
in the latest available reports.
As for the casualties i'm the
European theater, the war de-
partment has regularly an
nounced about the middle OF
every month the losses there for
the preceding month.
81 expect, in accordance with
this regular practice, to have
next week the figures for De-
cember which will cover princi-
pally the period of the German
offensive. No casualty figures,
therefore, have been omitted"

Assembly viii Consider
Soviet Plan on Trusteeships

LONDON, Dec. 20 ga Russian
compromise on the trusteeship issue,
Endorsed by a subcommittee Of the
United Nations Preparatory Com
mission, is slated for consideration
by the General Assembly of the
world peace organization at its
meeting starting January 10.
Under the compromise, which won
subcommittee approval yesterday
after its acceptance by United
States delegates, mandatory powers
would "act in concert with other
states directly concerned" in the
writing Of agreements shifting
League Of Nations inundated terri
tory to United Nations trusteeship
control. The United States had
sought to have all countries con-
cerned invited to participate in the
agreements.
The Russian compromise would
have the effect of placing the United
States and other powers which no
league mandates in q secondary
position in writing agreements on
such territories as Palestine and
Pacific islands inundated to Australia
and New Zealand.
Observers believed the United
States position in relation to islands
inundated to Japan probably would
not be affected, however, since these
islands are considered detached
from the enemy"
