Reds Move on Japan
Gives Them Voice in
| Territorial Settlement
~ tho Associated rress.

~ tho Associated Press.
Russia has gained = seat At the
Pacific peace table, and her pres
ence there may have far-reaching
diplomatic and territorial impaica-
tions. Nh
BY her declaration Of war against
Japan yesterday, the Soviet Union
became . partner with the United
States, Great Britain and China In
settlements that will determine,
among other things, which strategic
islands American forces are to hold
after the fighting ends.
The disposition Of these islands
such as Two Jima and Okinawa
went unmentioned in the mastsf
plan for dismembering Japan .Sfeeo
on at Cairo in Novembe, is4S. ny
President Roosevelt yiime Mlnister
Churchill and G--sefanSsimo Cnians
Kal.shekks a. assumption in diplomatic
.a&rters here is that when the So
viets finally agreed to enter the
conflict against Japan. they auto
matically accepted the terms of the
Cairo agreement, in which they did
not participate.
Move Agreed On at Yalta.
This belief is strengthened by
authentic disclosures that at Yalta
in February Premier Stain told Mr..
Roosevelt and Mr.. Churchill, both
Cairo signers, that he would enter
the Pacific war. But he did not
then set q specific date.
At Cairo the three powers then
lighting the Japanese renounced all
territorial expansion for themselves.
They agreed that Japan would be
stripped Of all Pacific islands she
had seized or occupied since the be-
ginning of the World War In 1914.
They said territories she had
stolen, such as Manchuria, Formosa
and the Pescadores, would be re-
stored to China. The three powers
also agreed that "in due course Ko-
rea shall become free and independ-
ent."
II the Soviets are bound by these
terms q great many Americans, in
cluding members of Congress, will
breathe easier on that score. Legis-
lators have been specializing Tor
months on what Russia might want,
with guesses ranging all the way
from a part Of Manchuria to all OF
Korea.
Former Holdings Involved.
Diplomatic sources generally be-
leve that the Russians were not
promised any specific territory at
Yalta. If that is true, they must
make original claims at the Pacific
peace conference for any areas
they might desire.
Speculation Is that they will want
full sovereignty of the island OF
Sakhalin, which they now share
with Japan; that they will want a
warm water outlet through Man.
churia, probably at Dairen, which
they held on = commercial basis
prior to the Russo-Japanese War;
and that they may want naval base
rights at Port Arthur. which they
also had 40 years ago. =
But the Soviet voice also will be
heard in the postwar disposition of
Hong Kong and Singapore, where
the British had important prewar
holdings. China may find a strong
ally In Russia for her likely bid for
complete control of these cities.
BY the same token, the Soviets
now will have a hand in deciding
what shall be done with the islands

Japanese in bloody fighting.

try to have full control Of strategic
areas that are the outposts Of the
Philippines and Hawaii.
That viewpoint has almost solid
congressional backing. It figured
heavily in the consultations when
Comdr. Harold e. Stassen and his
colleagues worked out trusteeship
system ut San Francisco for the
proposed United Nations organiza-
ton.
AS Comdr. Stassen explained the
system devised there, possession Of
the islands in question would be de-
termined among the victors at the
peace table. The nations thus
charged with responsibility for spe-
cific Islands could submit them for
trusteeship or not, as they chose.
Some Senator'S have said privately
they feared Russia might not want

X We The Women
War-Wrecked Homes Deserve More Pity

mans duty to his country came
before his duty to his home.
And now when many of the
marriages aren't standing the un'
natural strain that was put upon
them-society is blaming the men
for not coming back the same per
sons they were when they left
home.
IT WAS "OUR WAR"
Instead Of condemning the hus-
band or wife in such cases,
shouldn't we all shoulder the
blame? It was ''our war; not just
the war Of the men who left homo
to fight it. And if it has been hard
on many marriages, then we are
all to blame.
And what right have couples
who have never known the forced
separation that war brings to as.
sumo their own marriages would
have weathered such rocky times?
Maybe they woodland maybe
they wouldn't. It looks as though
in all fairness to the men and
women whose marriages have gone
to pieces due to the strain of war,
society should show only pity and
take no sides.
In their personal lives those
people are merely paying the ter
rible cost of war.
