By DEWITT MACKENZIE
AP Foreign Affairs Analyst

One of the questions most
often asked me by readers OF
this column, as the Allies close
in on Ja )an, is whether Russia
is going to join us in crushing
the brigands of the Pacific.
That's not an easy query to
answer in view of the fact that
there has been no official pro-
nouncement for guidance, either
from Moscow or the other AL
lied capitals. Marshal Stain as
usual has been exemplifying his
nickname of THE Sphinx" by
playing his cards close to his
chest. For this reason any guess
as to whether the Soviet Union
will make war on Japan must be
based on two things - logic and
significant trends.
On both counts, as I see 1t, the
probabilities are that the Mus
covites will come into the war.
TIME ACTOR
When? Well, the bulk OF
their fighting strength in all
categories is in European Rus
STA. We must allow time for the
shifting of much of this strength
to far-off Siberia-a titanic UNI
dertaking. 1t might be several
months before Moscow felt suf-
ficently we'll set-perhaps late
summer or autumn.
The first item to substantiate
my belief that Russia will fight
Japan is one Of logic. Looking
at the thing purely from the
standpoint of self-interest, it's to
the advantage of the Soviet
Union or so it strikes me) not
only to see Nippon knocked out
but to have hand in the job.
Japan's whole grandiose war
scheme of establishing new or
der in East Asia under her domi-
nation is a direct challenge to
every Russian interest in the
Orient-territorial, political and
economic. And this program is
the elimination of long series
of aggressive acts against Rus
The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1945-06-07
No Assurance Seen As Yet
But indications Favorable

STA, dating back to the Russo
Japanese War of 1904-5.
AS a result Of her defeat in
that war Russia had to cede to
the japanese her rights to the
strategic naval base of Port Ar
thur, and important interests in
Manchuria. The Japs also got
half of the big island of Sakha-
lin. Tokyo annexed Korea, and
extended her hold on Manchuria
until finally in 1881 she took
over that great country out
right.
Then came steady process
sion of Japanese threats against
Russian Siberia Finally the Japs
overran part Of China and then,
when Russia and the Western Al
lies were heavily involved in a
life-or death war with Germany
the Mikado's War-lords launched
their assault on America and
the other United Nations with
the object of overrunning all
East Asia.
JAPS FEARFUL
OF the recent trends, the one
which seems to me to be most
conclusive is Japan's own atti-
tude of fear that Russia is about
TO declare war. We see this ex-
hibited in the way Nippon is re-
ported rushing troops from
southern China northward to.
ward the Soviet border. This i.
accompanied by naive and
very expressive chatter by To-
kyo spokesman about what great
pals Japan and Russia are.
Another significant trend wa.
Moscow's denuncition of the So
viet-Jspanese neutrality pact
on April 5 of this year. In max.
ing this move Russia pointed out
that Japan is fighting against
U.S.A. and Great Britain, which
are the Allies of the Soviet
Union" and that the pact thus
has lost its meaning and the
continuance of this pact has be-
come impossible" Previously
in November of 1914. Marshal
