"The news from the home

Naturally men are proud of

the answer to our question,
'What is going on back home? "
Bill Ferguson.
"Have been gone four years

"There is nothing so good as
news from and concerning those
who are your friends and neigh

Johnston Talks
About Russia
Vancouver, Wash., Aug. 21
(U P) Eric Johnston, president of
the United States Chamber of
Commerce, told a week-end
meeting of the Washington state
Junior Chamber of Commerce
that the American and Russian
people will have to work to
gether In the postwar world.
Although we do not want their
system of government in our
country, Johnston said, "I be
lieve in cooperation with them
and long-term credits where
they can be mutually worked
out."
Johnston declared that the
Russians were a good risk in the
economic world and would not
contract for anything they could
not pay for.
"Industries in the Soviet un
ion are operated by American
machines, American methods
and American assembly lines,"
Johnston said. Russia does not
equal American production in
man hours, however, because
they are new to the game of
production. He predicted that
Russia will hit its stride in in
dustrial production in 10-15
years.
