NAZIS WILL LOSE,
! Acceptable Peace With Rus
?; sia Early Hope Would

' 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.

and former Prime Minister J,
K. Paasiklvi, as well as leading
members of the opposition and
other well-informed personali
ties.
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. ...

FARMER LEADERS
Washington, Sept. 16 (U.R)
Leaders of three big farm or
ganizations said today after;-a
conference with President Roose
velt they had been assured that
the government would not un
dertake a "general consumer
subsidy program" In its effort
to roll back food prices.

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

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."
