MR WALLACE CONDEMNS
ATLANTIC ALLIANCE
Says Japan Will Be America's
Next Ally
New York, March 27-Mr Henry Wallace, lender of the Progressive Party, to- day declared that the United States would be at war with Russia now if she has been bound in Asia by a treaty like the Atlantic pact which he characterised as a "war, alliance" aimed at the Soviet Union. He implied that Japan would be America's ally should war
come.
Luckily, said Wallace, "there was no pact binding us to Chiang Kai-shek. If there had been a treaty like the Atlantic pact covering the Far East we should now be at war with Russia on the Asiatic Mainland. As it is we have wasted billions in money of American taxpayers. More important, where once the name of America was held in highest honour, the Chinese people now regard us as their enemies. Millions of them hold us responsible for feeding the first of the civil war that might haye been avoided.”

Peace Conference
SOVIET DELEGATE DEFENDS HIS COUNTRY
New York, Mar. 27-A speech at the "World Peace Conference" today suggested that Russia was as much to blame as the United States for any drift toward war and it brought the leader of the Soviet delegation to his feet with a hot denial.
Mr A. A. Fadeov, head of the Soviet Writers: Union, challenged the remarks of Dr Frederick Schuman, professor of Political Science at Williams College, who had said both nations were suffering from paranoia"-evading their own faults by shouting warmonger at each other.
