ILYA EHRENBURG is one Of
the great writer's of our time. In
his earlier works, THE FALL OF
PARIS and THE TEMPERING OF
RUSSIA, he has shown us that
there can be no compromise be-
tween the democratic and the
fascist forces. In EUROPEAN
CROSSROAD he brings us a warm
and living picture of the Fighters
for freedom who have liberated
their countries and are now re-
building their shattered economy
and their cultural Institutions.
Ehrenburg has done a great
service to the American people
at this time. No one who reads
this book can place any belief in
Tr1man's statement that these
central European countries have
had totalitarian regimes forced
upon them-or that the Greek
monarchy is free institution"

Publishers at Capitol
For Newsprint Study
By the Assoeiofsd Press

About 100 leading publishers and
newsprint manufacturers met at the
Capitol today to hear Senate
groups proposals for increasing sup
plies of scarce paper to small pub
fishers.
The closed session was called by
a Senate Small Business Subcom-
mittee which has been investigating
newsprint scarcities. Chairman Cape
hart told reporters an agreement
on a voluntary sharing plan would
be sought.
Senator Capehart estimated that
less than i per cent of the Ma
tion's newsprint consumption, OF
"as little as $4,000 to 10000 tons
would be sufficient to relieve dis.
tressed cases" during the remainder
Of the year.
The subcommittee has received
testimony that a voluntary pool by
big publishers of newsprint for dis
tressed cases might be illegal under
the antitrust laws. but Senator
Capehart said he thought 1t coulc
be done.
