The Americans, awed a trifle by their surroundings, are , somewhat less noisy. . This writer meets an American . general who as a captain shortly . after the last war started the ' Oregon forest fire patrol with . Army planes. The patrol was ' based at Eugene, and they flew De Hivilands, known as "flying coffins." They lived up to their L, reputation by crashing rather frequently. He didn't know then that two J and a half decades later he'd be : fighting Germans again this I time as a part of an air force - running unbelievably far up into 1 the thousands, with planes that make those old De Havilands look like pony carts alongside a streamliner. , Perhaps it's just as well he ' didn't know. Not knowing NOW, we have HOPE for the future. EVENING arrives, and the pro gram shifts to Parker's Piece, i a park the like of which is not ; to be found In America per- haps because It resembles so closely London's Hyde Park, . which In all Its aspects doesn't seem to be quite like anything . else anywhere. There is dancing on the green ' by a crowd that must approach 100,000. Dancing on the green : is something that we Americans ' know about only by reading. It ; is made EASILY irosslble, even ; pleasant In ifs way, by this .'; amazing, smooth turf. A good 90 per cent of the ' dancing would have caused the ; England of the day when Cam- bridge was growing up around Parker's Piece to rub its eyes to muko sure it wasn't seeing tilings that weren't there and then, pos-, slhly, to senct m a nurry can un the high sheriff and all his as . slstants - for it was rug-cutting ' of the ruBCedest sort. But a good ; time was certainly had by all. NIGHT falls, and the nearly a dozen 8th Air Force and RAF bands that have been furnishing r the music fall silent and the fire works display begins. The tin works are over-age Royal Navy signal rockets and Roman can dles and Illuminating flares. The thought In every English mind Is the same: "Only a few months ago, we wouldn't have DARED to do this, for Illumina tion on such a scale would have been an engraved invitation to roaming German bombers to sweep In and loose their deadly cargoes." V-E Day brought a great cele bration here, NOT because the English felt that Germany's de feat brought the end of the war for them, for they know it didn't. They are as fully awar.i as we that Japan remains to be beaten liefore peace can arrive. Rut we must remember that for nearly . six years this part of England - was prnctirnlly on the filing lino. II DOES bring a great thrill of relief whenever they are re minded that the bombs and the rockets and the buzz-bombs are through falling. THE English hereabouts never tire of talking about the American GIs. They ate grate ful to them, of course. We on the home front In America sim ply can't realize the grlmness of the situation when our first ad vancc air units began to arrive It may have liecn gratitude and relief In 1942, but it has deep ened and ripened. It is now genuine affection. These boys ef ours have NO MORE SANTA CLAUS ROLE By Chariot V. Stanton Uncle Sam has pulled off the Santa Claus whiskers he has been wearing all these years, and some of our friends across the waters are tremendously shocked by the Missourian visage now revealed. Terminating Lend-Lease and demand ing interest on credits for supplies to be furnished in the future is a startling reversal of form for the United States. Apparently, President Truman's answer to the New Deal philosophy of "spending ourselves rich" is "Show Me!" Lend-Lease was a clever dodge to avoid a repeat of the aftermath of unfavorable public opinion which followed the first World war. The American people had not forgotten that European nations still owed us around $12 billion of the ?14.5 billion dollar debt they incurred in the first World war, even after we had discounted the bill. Public senti ment would not tolerate another such situation. So Lend Lease was born. Supposedly, we were to furnish our allies with every thing they needed and they were supposed, in turn, to pro vide offsets as best they could. We, for instance,' were granted the privilege of establish ing powerful airbasps on British soil. Britain furnished the dirt and we provided the money. We built up huge airports, with the proviso that we can't land a commercial airplane on the field?." in peacetime, but Britain can use them to cut the throats of our commercial aviation concerns. Altogether, Lend-Lease has cost this country around ?39 billion. , Lend-Lease, unquestionably, was the solution to a most delicate problem. It contributed to solidarity and unity in prosecution of the war. It enabled our allies to hold out in the dark days while we were patching up our obsolete, dilapidated war machine. It was our salvation as well as theirs. But, as President Truman pointed out, it wasn't designed to last forever a fact of which our allies were cognizant. What they can't seem to understand is why, after playing Santa Clans all these years, we should quit so suddenly and without giving more notice. Winston Churchill, who once proclaimed Lend-Lease to be the most "unsordid" net in the history of the world, gets his back up and says wo are proceeding in a "rough and harsh manner," hampering a "faithful ally who held the fort while their own armaments were prepared." Somehow that latter phrase has a familiar ring. We seem to recall that Great Britain induced us to wipe out a major part of her first World war debt because she "held the fort" while we were getting ready, and we, out of grati tude, did the generous thing in a big way. American finances rehabilitated Europe. Europe is ex pecting us to do the same thing again and we probably will. Particularly we may be expected to provide food, clothing aid fuel. Do Gaulle is now in Washington en deavoring to arrange help for his country, even though the average Frenchman still refuses to work more than five days per week. Undoubtedly the United States will continue being benevo lent, but from present prospects public and private capital will not be broadcast quite as freely as heretofore. There is evidence coming to light that the education obtained by the Truman investigating committee is serving a purpose in the White House. The American people are not going to be at all happy about the tax bill that will be rolling around annually for many years to come, as we are forced to pay for the financial jag we have staged for the past several years. The public has been fearful lest our Santa Clans role in the restoration period be too expensive for our pocket-books. While termi nation of Lend-Lease may not suit our cousins abroad, the action probably will win full approbation at home. worked their way into English hearts. You can't fail to believe that after listening to all the talk. OUR youngsters were . pretty well indoctrinated when they arrived. They had been told at briefings innumerable Just what they must ilo and what they must not do In order to avoid offend ing the English people or hurting their feelings or making things difficult for them at least to avoid rubbing their fur the wrong way. They were loaded down with booklets, written by our best psychologists and public experts. They must have been thor oughly bluffed by all this pro gram, for the English laugh and say they were surely hard to get next to. Hut they soon learned that English people WANTED to do things for them, WANTED them In their homes, LIKED to have them around. After that It was duck soup. The GIs needed no further "briefing" or lecturing or Indoc trination. They look all this busi ness of International good will Into their own extrovert hands, and the English loved it.

We do not mean to cross our bridges before wc come to them, but there is the possibility that our forces may encounter unto ward incidents. Nippon is taut to the breaking point in face of the terrible punishment which comes with the first major de feat of her centuries of history- This Is true of the population as whole, as witness Tokyo broad casts reporting numerous suicides before the Mikado's palace. The Jap radio may be emphasizing this for propaganda purposes, but there's no reason to doubt that there have been such cases of hara-kira, and that there will be others. Fanatical Hatred Remains ' More to the point, howevo Is the fierce resentment of the mili tarists, and the fanatical hatred of the kamikaze forces which have pledged to give their lives in suicide attacks against the allies. Not even the Tokyo gov ernment can know how these radical elements, or the people in general, will react to contact with the armed forces of occu pation. The Mikado's government has made it quite clear, and more than once, that there is danger of clashes. There's no reason to question the sincerity of the Jap anese authorities in this respect, since they have nothing to gain by lying about It. They might lie about other things, but not about that. The way things stand they undoubtedly are quite as anxious to see the oeeuptfon go off smoothly as are the Allies. Japan Is soundly beaten, and fool ish altacks by fanatical elements on our forces could only mean heavy retribution. Allies Fully Prepared Anyway, if the Allies en counter difficulties, they will be prepared to deal with them. thanks to the obvious precautions which our high command is tak ing. So, having recognized the possibilities, let s hope mat tne landings pass off wilout trouble. Apropos of this situation, the Moscow newspaper Pravdi calls U. S. Judge HORIZONTAL 1,7 Pictured U.

Piavda de clares Japan's rulers are pre paring . for revenge in another war. Pravda's point is well taken. This column long ago reported Horn intormed sources in tne Orient that the Japanese militar ists, recognizing that Nippon was losing this war, were making preparations for another conflict twenty-five years hence. Of course, since that time the coun try's war potential has been smashed, but so long as the mili tarists remain alive, and retain their unholy ambitions for con quest and enslavement of their fellow men, they are dangerous. The moral of this is that the Japanese militarists, like the Prussians, must be put out of circulation permanently, one way or another. Govt. Program For Wheat Buying Set WASHINGTON, Aug. 27; (AP) A government wheat pur chasing program offering farm ers full parity price for 1945-crop wheat placed under government loan II was announced Saturday by the Agriculture department. Under the program, farmers placing wheat under Commodity Credit corporation loans will have the option of selling such wheat next spring to that agency at 15 cents a bushel above the applicable loan value, less inter est and other charges, but at not more than the ceiling price. The 1945 wheat loan averages nationally $1.38 a bushel or 90 per cent of the July 1 parity price ot wheat. The purchase program will be applicable to both farm-stored and warehouse-stored wheat. Farm-stored wheat not re deemed from the loan will auto matically be purchased on April i, wnue an unrcaeemrtt warehouse-stored loan wheat in the southwest will be purchased as of April 1, and in other areas as oi May l.
