mower much faster than this has
ever been done or can ever be
done, by private capitalism.
Stain does not pretend that the
Russians live better, or nearly so
well, as do the people of western
Europe and North America. Nor
does he argue that the Soviet IN
dustrial system is as productive,
even for military purposes, as the
American. His argument is that
only by the Communist method
could there have been in so short
time so much military industrial
power in So backward country.
He would admit that the American
industrial system is stronger than
the Russian but he would point
out that it took us fifty to sew
enty-five years to develop it.
He has told the Russians, and
his remarks will be pondered in all
the industrially backward but
densely populated countries OF
Asia, that Communism, Russian
style, is the one and only quick
way for a backward people to be-
come a great military power.
Though Russia has not had an
election, as we understand cleo
tions, it has had plebiscite tc
ratify the continuation of Com
munist party rule. Stain in hi:
address has told the people thai
what they are ratifying is the plar
of the Communist party to carry
out at least three and perhaps foul
new five-year plans in which gun!
will have priority over butter.
The calculation is quite plain
The basic measure Of military in
dustrial power is steel production
in the postwar era - at the out
side by 1870 - the Russians intent
to reach a capacity Of 10000, o0'
tons. This is about the American
capacity in 1910. 1t is three time
tile Russian capacity in 1910. 1t il
more than the combined capacit.
of the British Empire, Germany
and Japan in 1910. 1t is, therefore
huge military potential. More

point, there is no possibility tina

Germans in u. 5. Zone
To Rule Selves After
Approving Charters
BY the Associated Press

FRANKFURT, Nov. 2.-The three
German states in the American oc-
cupation zone will become virtually
self governing not later than De-
cember 8, after voters have given
final approval to their constitutions
and elected legislative assemblies,
United States Army headquarters
said yesterday.
After that date "only such activi-
ties as demilitarization and repara-
tions" will be directly administered
by the military government. since
they are responsibilities which can
not be entirely assumed by the Ger
man civil government, the an
Inouncement said.
The military government will be
only observing. inspecting and ad-
vising" the self chosen civil govern
ment, the Army added. The AMG
will have authority, however, to veto
any action which clearly violates
military objectives and to remove
German public officials who violate
its policies.
The three states are Greater
Hesse, Neutrality-suspicious. and
Bavaria.
In another move turning over to
the Germans additional govern
mental duties the Darmstadt civil
ian internment camp. largest in the
American zone, was transferred
yesterday to German control. The
step was regarded as giving Ger
man authorities virtually complete
responsibility for denazification in
Greater Hesse.
Under provisions of the American
denazification law, 1000 Germans
were held under arrest at the camp
since last March. The camp will
now serve as a processing center
from which Nazis sentenced to labor
terms will be distributed to labor
camps.
The United States Army reported
also that nearly 20 per cent of the
Poles in displaced persons camps in
the American zone had been re-
patriated in the first month of an
intensive repatriation drive which
featured bonuses of 60-day food
supplies to Poles who agreed to re-
turn home.

Lewis Awaiting Krug.
The union boss, it appeared, would
postpone his appearance at the
conference until Secretary Krug re-
turns from his trip. Mr.. Krug has
indicated he would return about
the middle of next week.
At the meetings yesterday it was
understood the union officials, led
by Vice President John OLeary,
outlined their demands to Capt.
Collision. It was said the Govern
ment was told the miners want a
shortened work week, now 54 hours
in most mines, without loss of take
home pay. That would mean a
boost in hourly wages rates Of about
Is per cent.
Capt. Collision, it was said, played
a listening role as the union un-
folded its demands.
Weight Issue Disputed.
There was discussion, too, of the
Lewis charge that the Government
has broken its contract in the
weighing Of coal for determination
of the union health and welfare
fund. The fund is raised by a levy
of cents on each ton of coal
The Government has used
weights after the coal is cleaned.
The union insists it should be CAL
culated just as it is dug, and include
slate and other impurities.
Mr.. Krug and Capt, Collision have
contended that Mr.. Lewis does not
possess the right to open up the
entire contract on wages and other
issues. Both have expressed willing

miners have and to correct them If
