PAGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1943 NAZIS WILL LOSE, ! Acceptable Peace With Rus ?; sia Early Hope Would H Retain Independence. Bf Jack Fleischer (United Press Correspondent) ' Stockholm, Sept. 16. (U.PJ Finland, convinced of Germany s eventual defeat, is trying to re orient its foreign policies with a view of obtaining an accept able peace with Russia as soon as possible. The government soon will at tempt, If it has not already done so, to contact Moscow Indirectly to learn the general Russian terms. If indirect contact fails to produce the desired results. there is at least a 80-90 chance that Finland will make some direct gesture. These conclusions are based on conversations I had with per sons, official and unofficial, of all political shades during a 10- day visit to Helsinki.

How successful Finalnd will be in its efforts to win a separ ate peace is another matter. Whether its shift in foreign poli cies will go far enough and rapidly enough to suit Russia is an open question. The government has been proceeding cautiously, partly be cause of possible German reac tion and partly because of Brit ish and American reluctance to give Finland any guarantees. However, a small but articu late opposition has arisen in Finalnd during the past three months, adopting the attitude that Finland and Russia must make peace eventually, it con tends that Russian terms at this time, even though perhaps not what desired, would be less harsh than when the Russian position improves even more. Action Pressed The opposition's demand that the government cease its "do nothing" tactics and Immedi ately exhause all possibilities to learn Russian terms may lead to a change in the cabinet to facili tate negotiations. But even the opposition does not propose accepting a peace that might end Finnish Inde pendence and security. I heard many times in Helsinki that the Finns would prefer to tie ae. stroyed on the battlefield than Indirectly controlled by nussia. The Finns are willing to make some concessions and cer tain circles favor going rather far in the belief that corrections might be worked out at the final general peace conference. Significantly, the Finns to a surprising degree no longer em phasize so strongly the two ob stacles which up to mid-summer they held to be insurmountable, firstly, the withdrawal of six to seven divisions of German troops, and secondly, the obtain ing of food from other than oer- many or Axis-controlled coun tries. , Look to Allies Most Finns believed solutions can be found If the Allies are willing to give Finland some support, particularly economi cally. ' Many official quarters openly expressed the wish that the Americans would help solve the problem of ridding Finland of German troops by landing at Petsamo In northern Norway. The Finns unquestionably now would welcome any friend ly sign from the United States and Britain, but it must be re membered that until the second halt of this year they felt their Interests lay primarily with Ger many. ...

The full-dress discussion of general agriculture problems came in a conference to which the president had summoned Secretary of Agriculture Claude Wickard. War Mobilization Di rector James F. Byrnes, Econom ic Stabilization Director Fred M. Vinson, and Food Administrator Marvin Jones. The three farm organization leaders who talked after the conference said they had opposed the idea of a general consumer subsidy r'an ss a means of hold ing down food prices. They re ceived assurances from the presi dent and his top economic ad visers that no such program would be undertaken, they said. The three leaders were Ed ward A. O'Neal, president of the American Farm Bureau Federa tion; Albert Goss, master of the National Grange, and Ezra T. Benson, executive secretary of the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives.

By James McGlIncr United Press Correspondent London (U.R) One of the most refreshing things about shopping In British stores Is that the sales clerks do not try to sell you everything In sight. If any thing, they're more Inclined to discourage sales. I went with Walter Cronklte, a fellow UP correspondent, to one of London's biggest depart ment stores to buy some shirts: Cronklte: "Do you have any shirts with tab collars, size lW" Clerk: "No, all we have except utility shirts are a few here, and they're all size 16 or so much too large for you," pointing to an array of shirts displayed be neath the glass counter. The clerk went to another part of the counter, returned and said, "No, we haven't any your size." Cronkite persisted, "Are you sure?" The clerk said, "Well, may be." He dived into the original display and came up with a bunch of shirts the right size Whereupon Cronkite bought twr just to spite the clerk. Then we went upstairs to the music department, where wr found a hepcat girl at the record counter playing a hot Artie Shaw 1 recording. "What is it?" we asked her She said, "It's some French name. I will give you the num ber of the record." She wrote down the number and gave it to us and we started to walk away. With delayed re action she asked, "Did you want to buy It?" We answered, "No, we just wanted the number so we could buy it somewhere else." She said, "Oh, that's all right." Then there was the American woman correspondent who went into a shop to buy a hat. At home the salesladies always say. Madam, it couldn t be better if it were made for you." But not here. The clerk told the re porter, "Madam, it's just not your type. It doesn't look right on you." The lady got kind of peeved and asked, "Do you mind if I buy it?" Tba clerk cam back with, 'It's up to you. I wouldn't buy It, but then you're tha one who has to wear it" The same girl reporter helped out the Red Cross In buying books for a certain air base. Sha went into a store in Cambridge and asked tha clerk, "Do you have Alice in Wonderland?" He answered, "I'm afraid so." rjee Mad Tribuno Want Ada. FOR WARTIME ENERGY fa.
