After four years of fruitless negotia-
tions the United States has proposed to
Russia that the argument about the lend
lease settlement be arbitrated.
The point at issue is the amount that
Russia should pay for leftover lend-lease
articles that had peacetime value, includ-
ing four oil refineries. tire factory, $780,
100000 worth of machinery and thousands
of. trucks, vehicles and communications
equipment.
The Russians offered maximum of
$240, 0O0, 900 but the United States holds
out for at least $500. 900. 900. pointing out
that in writing off $4,000, 100000 of the
total bill this country recognizes in full
the community of interest during the war
and gives full cognizance to the part play
ed by the Soviet Government.
1t is worth noting that the Russians,
in rejecting the American demand, set up
the contention that Great Britain got a
better deal when it settled after the war.
Of course. this has nothing to do with the
peacetime value of the goods left in Rus
sia but if the Russians really wish to CON-
plain on this score they should have cited
the agreement with Italy which got a
much better deal" than the British.

TALKS NONSENSE

George Santayana, 88-year-old Ital-
ian philosopher, thinks that the United
States would waste the lives of its young
men if it sends them to defend Europe,
which is already wreck"
The Italian probably expresses some
of the pessimism that is natural to those
who are overly impressed by European
conditions following the second world war.
He would let Communism "wither or
rather rot" away but confident that if the
Russians occupy Western Europe they
would have their hands "more than full"
with Europe, Asia and Africa
Mr.. Santayana does not believe that
possession of this vast area would enable
the Soviet Union to posesa threat to the
United States.
