For Churchill and Roosevelt to pet Stalin and Chiang at the same war conference table would be a polit cal and military achievement or the first magnitude. such a meeting would imply that the Russians feel they have reached rt point iti their battle with Germany where a two-front war Twith Japan and the Reich-no longer need be avoided.

‘liils is nut to say that the initial act oi helllgerency necessarily would be by Russia. Hut it would suggest in the strongest manner (as in- deed it presumably would be intended by the Allied powers) that Russia. is ready if Japan wants to make something out oi the situation.

The actual presence of Chitin; at such a conference, or evmi mere l reports of his presence, could be of the utmost value to Britain and the United States ii their war with Japan. Notice that Russia no longer is pressed by military necessity to avoid cnnfiict with Japan could only ag- gravate the problem for the Nip oriese.

Japan must look to lier pos tion in Manehuokuo, along the Sihei-lnn border.
