(AP) Au thorized fiertnan sources beamed with satisfaction today over the Russian-Finnish peace. Its terms, they said, were "in just proportion to the sacrifice. made and In just proportion to the needs ami necessities which cer tain states In large 'living spaces' havo a right to claim." These sources alfto expressed (he opinion that the treaty, as signed at Moscow, constituted no danger to Finnish living space. Authorized sources further held that conclusion of the peace mark ed failure of a so-called Mriiish- laud, onc-flfliolh as populous as Rimsla, fought tho invading hostB in n HinmiKiIll for months.
