an impression on Stain. He was
the son Of the Red boss first wife,
q simple Georgian woman named
Catherine Svanidze. whom Stain
married in 1908. Catherine died
in 1917. 1t was a second wife,
Nadia Sergeyevna Alliluieva. who
produced the two children of
whom Stain thought enough to
permit them to take the name by
which he was known. Yacha re-
manned simple Jacob Djugashvili
to the end.
When the Germans asked 1t.
Djugashvili what his half-brother
was doing, he told them he
thought the 20-year-old boy was
, to have Joined the Red air force.
He had not heard any details.
Before long, all the world knew
the. details: Vassili. the half
brother, was a colonel in a key
job. Now general. he is said to
command the entire air force.
The publicity accorded Vassili
was balanced by scrupulous Soviet
silence on the subject of the older
son. Despite his initial reluctance,
Yacha did decide to send a few
words to his father, following his
capture. Dear father" he wrote,
II am POW, in good health. Will
soon be transferred to one of the
officers camps in Germany. Treat
ment is good. Good health and
regards to everyone.
Before dispatching this letter to
the Soviet dictator through diplo-
matte channels. the Germans had
1t photostated. They dropped
thousands of copies over the Rus
sian lines. Stains son has
surrendered to the Germans" the
other side Of the paper announced.
"If even such an outstanding So
Wet officer and Red commander
has surrendered. 1t proves clearly
that any resistance against the
German Army Is useless"
From the Kremlin, there was
nothing but silence. Inconspicu-
ously, in due course, 1st Lieut..
Diugashvili was cited for staying
with his battery until the last
round Of ammunition. (Yacha
actually was in civilian clothes
when captured) Stain said
nothing.
The honeymoon phase of
Yacha's captivity did not last long.
After his Interrogation at the
front, he was indeed sent to an
officers camp for a time. But
there were more interrogations,
and the Germans appear to have
become progressively dissatisfied
with his unwillingness or inability
to answer their questions on
higher matters of Russian policy.
In October, 1941, they moved him
to the Hamelburg concentration
camp, in Franconia. Early in 1943,
he was transferred to Sachsen-
hausen, the dread political section
of the Oranienburg camp.
According to a fellow inmate,
the thought that any captive was
a coward to the Russians preyed
increasingly on Yacha's mind. One
gray April dawn, when the guards
opened the barrack doors, he is
supposed to have broken from

has just come to light. 1t supplies
q large missing piece of the story
of "Yacha," the dictator's boy
who failed to make good-one Of
the most battling and poignant
dramas of World War II. This
slice of human history. which
probably will be of more interest
TO a man in the Kremlin than to
any one else, is told here for the
first time.
Yacha was we'll treated by the
Germans in his. first interview as
G prisoner. He talked rather
freely. These were the days when
a Nazi victory seemed at most a
matter of weeks. Yacha was
bluntly critical of the Red army's
vast disorganization. This, plus
the havoc produced by Goering's
dive-bombers, accounted for Ger
many's quick successes, he said.
On the other hand, he stoutly
contended that communism, as
administered by his father. had
improved the material lot Of the
little man in Russia. And, try as
they would, the Germans couldn't
make him say he thought Russia
had lost the war.
Yacha was clearly stung by the
cockiness of the Nazi officers.
"Why should it be so natural that
you will take Moscow" he asked.
you are so sure!"
He can hardly be credited,
though, with having emerged from
the interrogation a hero. The
Nazi officers tried to establish that
Jews held controlling positions in
the Red government. He argued.
on the other hand, that Russia
yields to no country in its anti
Semiticism.
He seemed touchy on all aspects
of the Jewish question. When the
Germans brought up the widely
discussed subject of widower

buro, he literally sputtered denials.

action filed in the 10th judicial
district against P. w. Best,

The complaint sets forth that
Tetor was riding in the defend

the east coast, were lin error. +"
Certainly it would be an error
for UN forces again to strike in
force across that mooted line
without genuine consultation
among the allies who. with the
United States, are contributing
troops to the Korean front.
1t is likely in the long run that
UN troops will have to push into
North Korea to the narrow waist
of the peninsula mort b. of
Pyongyang and Wonsan before
Communist leaders will assent to
talk seriously about free elections
for a unified. independent Korea.
And unification for Korea must
be one of democracy's minimum
terms.
Yet Prime Minister Attlee Of
Great Britain has asked for con-
situations among powers contrib
uting to UN forces in Korea, and
has expressed a persisting hope
that settlement with Chinese
may be accomplished by negotia-
ton. If a pause south of the S8th
parallel (assuming UN forces
could push above it, would pro-
vide diplomacy a fresh opport-
unity, that possibility should be
explored.
Reaction in Washington to the
Attlee statement sounds a bit
high-handed and obtuse. To say
that the original UN resolution
gives authority for the military
to cross the parallel at will is to
ignore a great deal of subsequent
thinking and current judgment.
If America is to have willing
allies, it must move with them,
not merely advise them of moves
it has made.
Little as Americans are accus-
toned to a waiting g a m e, it
would be worth while. if other
nations again wish to feel out any
possible Chinese readiness for an
acceptable peace, to allow t m e
for that process-using the time
to strengthen forces.
If it should prove that nothing

impress Peiping and accomplish

cross the parallel in Korea. But
it should be UN decision. and

Administration Plans
For Farm Subsidies
Called Fraud by Taft
BY the Associated Press

| GRAND FORKS, N. OAK. Sept
Ex-senator Taft, Republican, OF
Ohio said today Truman admin
istration farm subsidy proposals
are a fraud" to promise high
prices to farmers and low prices
to consumers.
The Ohio Senator said In a
speech prepared for a cooperative
power plant dedication here that
farmers are entitled to support
prices just as much as laborers
are to minimum wages.
But Senator Taft assailed the
IBrannan farm subsidy payment
plan which Congress has rejected,
without directly naming it. The
Brannan plan. named for the
Secretary of Agriculture, called
for subsidies to farmers to make
up the difference between the
amount they received for perish
able commodities in the open
market and predetermined
farm price"
Don't Get Promised Benefits.
Il have always thought this
subsidy business was a fraud" !"
Senator Taft declared. 1T
Ienables an administration to
promise farmer high prices and
a consumer low prices at the
same time.
"The idea is that the differ
ence is charged to the taxpayers,
but in the long run the consumer
and the farmer pay most of the
taxes and so they really do not
get the benefits which are prom
ised them. In fact, they get a
bill for the benefits almost be-
fore they receive them.
| Senator Taft's Grand Forks talk
was billed in advance by his aides
as a major farm address. The
Ohioan has said he won't decide
until later in the year whether
he will actively seek the 1852
Republican presidential nomina-
Ition.
Senator Taft said he regards
minimum price supports for any
commodity as generally inconsist-
Ient with the free price competi-
tive system, but he added he be-
Ilieves special considerations JUS
tify farm price support program
at a reasonable level, just as
also believe they justify a mini
mum wage"
Nothing Is so likely to start
depression as a disastrous fall
in farm prices" he said. II be-
lieve that at some point the Gov
ernment ought to step in to pre-
vent any such dangerous drop in
farm prices and to maintain them
at some reasonable relation to
other prices"
Senator Taft said supports
ought not to be too high, lest
they bring acreage limitations
