12 Capital Journal. Salem, Oregon, Tuesday, Jan. 21, 1947 Stalin Tells Elliott Roosevelt He Sees No Cause for Trouble New York, Jan. 21 U.R Premier Josef Stalin believes that relations between the United States and Russian governments have deteriorated, but that relations between the people of the two nations are better and "the daneer of a new war is not real, Elliott Roosevelt said today in a copyrighted story in Look maga zine. Roosevelt, in his account of an interview which took place December 21 in Stalin's office in the Kremlin in Moscow, said that the Soviet premier appear ed to be in good health, although thinner than when Roosevelt had seen him three years pre viously. Stalin's comments on rela tions between the two powers were made when Roosevelt asked: Misunderstanding, Cause 'To what do you ascribe the lessening in friendly relations and understanding between our two countries since the death of Franklin Roosevelt?" Stalin answered: "I feel that if this question relates to relations and under itanding between the American and Russian peoples, no deterior ation has taken place, but on the contrary relations have im proved "As to relations between the two governments, there have been misunderstandings. Certain deterioration has taken place and then great noise was raised that their relations would even deteriorate still further. But I see nothing frightful about this in- the sense of a violation of peace or a' military conflict. "Not a single great power, even if its government were anxious to do so, could now raise a large army to fight an other allied power, another great power, because now one cannot possibly fight without one's people and the people are unwilling to fight. They are tired of war, and besides, there are no understandable objectives to justify a new war." Wife Asks Question The late president's son was accompanied during the inter view by his wife, acress Faye Emerson. Roosevelt put 12 questions to Stalin, and his wife interposed one at one point. Asked if it were possible for the Democratic United States and Communist Russia to live side-by-side in peace, Stalin re plied that it was "not only pos sible; it is wise and entirely within the bounds of "realiza lion."
