The long-awaited White

tion which was planned as q

propaganda meets this week
in a potentially explosive
atmosphere.
Americas drastic shortage

how the Egyptians could learn

Thus the long cherished dream
Of the Cars to reach the

The effectiveness of the new

HELSINKI. One thing that
contributed to Finland's re-
opening the war in l94i after
the hundred days fantastic
resistance of the so-called
Winter War tautumn of 1899
to March, l940) was the ac-
tivity of the local Communists
during the Is months truce
period. During the first war,
which started as an unpro-
voked attack by Russia on her
small neighbor during Russia's
pact with Hitler, Finnish Com
munists were quiet and ap-
parently loyal.
One may assume that like
Communists everywhere. they
were taken aback by the
Russo-G German pact and subse-
quent Russian aggressions. But
when Finland was defeated by
the steamroller of a nation
SO times her size and not
otherwise engaged, the Com
riunists came out as the
friends Of the victorious power.
and were taken into the gov
ernment as leaders who might
help Finland come to terms
with her conqueror. The sub
sequent outlook was that Fin
land, which had lost IL per
cent of her territory in the
first war, might lose the whole
nation by subVersion.
The reopening Of the war
was opposed nevertheless by
some anti Communist Firms
who felt that in allying them
selves with Hitler Finland
would weaken her moral posi-
tion. This was the attitude Of
the Western allies. The Amer
ican playwright, Robert Sher-
wood, who had celebrated the
winter war with a moving pro-
Finnish drama, changed the
scene to Greece when Finland
accepted German aid. To this
the Firms argued that the In
itial aggression was Russian
and that If the Russians could
accept Germany as an ally in
attacking Finland, Finland was
justified in doing the same
thing to rewin her freedom
and lost territory.
