 Have Respect ForAmerico
 Towns Are Ruined,
 UNRRA Is Needed
 In. Reconstruction

N s. Handler, veteran United
 United Press staff correspondent
 in Russia has just completed
 the most extensive tour of the
 Ukraine and White Russia
 which newsmen have made
 since the end of the war A dis
 patch on how Russians of
 those regions regard the United
 States follows.
 By M. S. HANDLER
 Moscowf Sept. 28. (UP)-RuS- sians in the Ukraine have high re- spect for America and its industrial ingenuity, and that admiration has not been affected by the sharp criticism of the United States by the Soviet press.
 That was the impression gained in a 13-day trip by American cor respondents through the Ukraine, stopping at Kiev, touring the Don- bas coal area and the coal and steel towns of Voroshilovgrad, Kadievka, Stalino, and Makeevka, the port of Odessa and winding up with an- other visit to Kiev.
 In every town and village we found that the people were more interested in setting the Ukraine on its feet again than in the inter- national situation. On only oe oc- casion were Russian American poli- cies discussed and the brief allu- sion to them came to nothing when some news correspondents defended the American viewpoint in unmis- takable terms.
 So far as Cur group could ascer- tain, the atmosphere was free oi the political tension one feels in Moscow.
 UNRRA supplies, as well as those of Lend-Lease, are predom- inantly American and it has beer said that every tin of food accom- plishes an individual goodwill mis- sion in this area of Russia.
 Reconstruction will be difficult The war reduced populations ane manpoWer resources, and the lear diet made possible by UNRRA l! no great incentive.
 Steel plants, machine-buildlnt factories and ruined towns mus be rebuilt. Coal mines must be re claimed The national econom! must be established.
 UNRRA's part in this rehabilita' tion cannot be over estimated. A least 95 percent of the food beint distributed in Stalino, capital O Donbas, comes from UNRRA, gro cery store managers there told us Cereals and wines were the onl. non- -UNRRA supplies we saw il rationed food stores.
