RUSSIA WILL HELP IN PACIFIC WAR, U. P. MAN'S VIEW Recent Moscow Visitor Also Thinks No Conflict Likely With Reds After War. By Harrison Salisbury U, P. Foreign News Editor The first question most peo ple ask when they hear you've just come from Moscow is ujhntrior the. Rncclane in. anlna I ... . . I to help US against Japan. ! The next question frequently ; is wether we are going to have i to fight the Russians after this I War. I have been interroffaterl hv 1 nave neen imerrogaiea rjy Civilian Officials, generals, ad- I mirals and Dlain GI's in manv i - -- - --- --- - weeKs 01 travel inrougn Iran, India, Australia, and the Pacific since leaving Russia. Cross Section My answers are not personal opinions but must represent What I have been told in dozens of conversations with Soviet of- , ficials and Red army officers, by the official Russian press and what I've heard in thou sands of miles of travel to al most every corner of the Soviet Union. First, "are the Russians go-. ing to help us against Japan? So far as the official record goes Russia has made no com-1 tn Vialn tie in tUa. D- m .

However, most competent diplomatic observers believe that Russia will partici pate in the final phases of the Pacific war, presumably some months after Germany has been defeated. Present Russo-Japa-1 nese relations are correct but chilly. Soviet newspapers de light in recounting Jap reverses in the Pacific, never .failing to point out that the Japanese are getting what they deserve for trying to be a tail to Hitler's kite. No War After War "Are we going to have to fight the Russians after this war?" No one in Russia thinks so. The Musco vite - in - the - street hopes for a long period of peace and security when the fighting is over. Stalin has told every Ameri can he has talked to in the last year exactly the same thing. "Will the Russians go into Germany?" The Russians are aching to smash the Wehrmacht on its home ground. When the plot against Hitler was revealed last summer, many Russians were worried. They were afraid the Nazis would crack up before the Red army got into Germany. "How do Russians like Amer icans?" They feel at home with us. They laugh at pretty much the same kind of jokes. They're like Americans in their drinking habits they drink liquor to feel the effects. They like the way we hustle and get things done. They admire our Indus try. Henry Ford is still a great name in Russia. One thing Rus sians can't understand is why Americans laugh and wisecrack about serious things. They can't understand American politics at all. Really Licking Nazis "Are the Russians really lick ing the Germans or are the Nazis making a planned re treat?" Brother, they're really lick ing them. The toughest moment in a Nazi's life comes when he makes up his mind to try to sur render to a Red army man. The ordinary Red army man feels about the Germans the way our ( troops feel about the Japanese. He'd rather shoot first than take a chance. German officer pris oners say frankly that th- Red army is stronger and often better led and and better equipped. "What do the Russians want to do with Germany after the war?" The Russian man or woman ! who has been toiling 12 or 14 hours a day in a war plant since the start of the war has no sym pathy for Germany. There's harrilv a Russian famlTv which hasn't lost someone at the front ! or In a civilian massacre, These people feel that the only good German is a dead German.

Temple Built in 1915 In 1914 the lodge had grown to a point where the members felt that they could have their own building, so the present Elks temple was built and dedicated in September, 1915. After 29 years of ups and downs the mortgage on the temple was paid off in November of 1943, and with appropriate ceremony on the second of February, 1944. the grand exalted ruler, Frank I J. Lonergan of Portland, burned the mortgage.

Civil Service Lady Would Shunt Men Washington, Oct. 4. U.P.) Members of the civil service commission today were debating a thought-provoking little green booklet, authored by one of their employes, Miss Ruth Welty, who advises how to "dehorn, declaw and deglamorize" their Jobs to discourage male employ ment competition and who has founded an organization dedicat ed to that end. In her booklet Miss Welty urges her readers to be gracious p2Z E H 6.00-16 fy'riViiflwiMl , and charming about It all, but to 1 shoot for th "big" as woll at the "little" government Jobs and to discourage men by expressing contempt for "sissies" who enter government employment.

Arnold announced today that women air force ser vice pilots (WASPS) will be in activated on Dec. 20 unless com bat losses in the air war against Germany become unexpectedly higher.

Hudson said with so many persons cashing their govern ment bonds, that It was timely to issue a warning to the effect that "war bond holders should be wary of propositions advanced to them to invest the proceeds from their bonds. Before invest ing the proceeds for an A-l security, they shuuUl cunsult someone with knowledge of the values of securities so they will no tbe bilked ..."
