FftOM the Southwest Pacific conies a story of American grit and heroism that thrills us to the core. . Our bombers mixed lights and heavies attacked Kavlcng, on NcwBrltlan island, north of.Ra haul. They met unusually strong ,Jap anti-aircraft fire and eight of them were shot down and the surviving members of the crews took to their rubber boats. ' One of our Catllnas (a heuvy, lumbering PATROL ship) swept down into the very teeth of the Jap gunners and rescued 15 of our men from their little rafts bobbing in the heavy seas. Tim first landing Sprung, the Calit:. Una's rivets and it was taking water badly, but THREE TIMES it rose from the water and then landed again to take on floating unci lean airmen just signteu. Finally It flew away to safety, carrying Its precious freight. THIS Catllna was manned by American boys the same boys whom, as members of the newest generation, wo were shaking our heads over only a few years ago. This war is leaching us a ics on: - -- i" DON'T lost faith in the young er generation of Americans. . Will.' DI1DB.I. In I U.. 1 !!,.(., I slowly nd methodically clean Jng up the trapped ten .

I FOUR hundred Russian plant's bomb Helsinki again --a hitter reminder to the Kinns to get out j of the war OR ELSE. ! There's nothing much new on the Finnish peace situation. The big problem seems to be the seven to ten German divisions lestlmatcs vary) still In Finland. The Finns bit obviously fearful of another Italy. A hundred-odd thousand Ger mans could do a lot of damage before being corralled. IN MncArthur's communique tell ing of the bombing ul Kavicng. there Is no mention o( fighting In the .Solomons. The Solomons are now regarded as a closed inci dent, and the 2:2,000 .laps left there are expected to be starved nut - more or less as Klskn wns i handled. j Twenty two thousand Japs are : quite a lot. j But there are so MANY Japs, j The high command In lokyo won't worry much over the loss of 22,000 more. THE Russians are reported mass ing on the east bank of the Uug where it empties into the Hlaok sea. This seems to fore shadow an attempt by the Rus sians to close the Rack on the Germans left In the Ukraine from the South. It might be worth watching. A POSTWAR By Chariot V. Stanton 1 GKEAT many of our political leaders, congresslnen and commentators have been devoting much time to con Hidoration of postwar adjustments In Europe. But there are indications that while others have been talking about the postwar problems to bo faced in Europe, canny "Uncle Joe" Stalin has been doiny something' about the proposition. We admit our viewpoint is extreme, but we believe it to be within the realm of poxttibUity,' and if things come to pass ns it appears they might, our Atlantic charter, our numer ous "conferences" and our idealistic program for re-establishment of political authorities in Europe can be made to look very foolish. Stalin's sensational declaration of autonomy for soviet states, made recently, places each on an independent status. A voluntary federation of republics is thus created, which opens the door for the absorption of the greater part of Europe within the soviet union, without Great Britain or the United States having a word to say about it. In Germany, for instance, there is a strong communistic element. When the nazi party is overthrown, as it must be in the near future, it is entirely possible the communists will, gain control of the government. In that case it would be an easy step to federate with the soviet union. France, weak, impoverished, suspicious of Great Britain, needing h military alliance with a strong power, could pos sibly bo turned to affiliation with Russia rather than with England. ... That Stalin already Is counting Poland within the fold is indicated by his refusal to deal with the Polish govern ment in exile in London. Instead he is conducting his nego tiations with the" Polish committee in Russia. Inclusion of the Baltic states, Estonia, Latvia and Lithu ania, can be assumed as a foregone conclusion. In the event the federation was made to include the coun tries already mentioned, it would be certain that numerous other small countries would follow, setting up a compact empire that would be a dominant power in world trade and politics. Nor would the sphere of influence necessarily be con fined to Europe, for China's communist population already is sufficiently large to have maintained a form of civil war. Post war developments could easily lead to China's affilia tion with the soviet league. Russia's achievements on the battlefield have earned for her a position as a top-ranking military power. She could easily become a dominating political power as well. If such a state of affairs should result, Great Britain and the 'United States probably would not have much oppor tunity to object or interfere. Wo already have guaran teed free elections in countries relieved of the axis yoke, assuring them of the right to form the types of govern ment they' hicytt desire, Therefore, we could not consist ently object if they voted federation with the U. S. S. R. We are not predicting Stalin will attempt to carry out the plan of absorbing the European nations. Wo only mention it as a possibility. Such a program would make our guar antees of boundaries and our war readjustment!) appear most ridiculous. We can imagine the intense disappointment of the political leaders who aspire to international power and glory and the chagrin of the senators and congressmen deprived of the opportunity for oratory. But, at least, the peace terms and buffer state boundaries would were following the last war. KRNR Mutual Broadcasting System, 1490 Kllocyolea.
