Stain Acknowledges
Mistakes in Early
Months Of War
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, May 25.-Premier Stain
and other Soviet leaders congratu-
lated themselves at banquet last
night on the triumph over Ger
many, although the Russian leader
said the government had made mis-
takes during the early months Of
battle.
Perhaps the high point of the
tremendous victory gathering in the
ancient white hall Of st. George in
the Kremlin was Stains toast to
the Russian people as he raised a
vodka filled tumbler:
II drink first of all to the health
Of the Russian people because they
are the most outstanding of all ma
tions in the composition of the So
Wet Union"
Praises Role in War.
The Russian people make up more
than half the population of the
Soviet Union, which includes vast
expanses Of Asia. The toast by the
Georgian-born Stain to the Rus
slams was considered equivalent to
President Truman, a Missourian,
toasting the people of the Eastern
United States.
II raise this toast" said Stain in
one Of his best moods in years, ito
the health Of the Russian people be-
cause they have deserved in this war
the acknowledgment of the leading
force Of the Soviet Union among all
the people of our country. I raise
this toast to the health Of the Rus
sian people not only because they
are the leading people but because
