War III Suddenly

ven ion of actual war rests upon ,
strength,” Churchill said. “The
western nations will be far more
likely to reach a lasting settlement
without bloodshed if they formu
late their just demands while they
have the atomic power and before
he Russian communists have got
it, too.”
Churchill urged the west to
“bring matters to a head and make
a final settlement” before Russia
gets the bomb. The Russians
should release their grip on satel- ;
lite States, free German and Jap
anese prisoners they “now hold as
slaves,” cease to “oppress torment
and exploit” the parts of Austria
and Germany they hold and cease
disruptive operations elsewhere in
the world before a settlement is
reached, Churchill said.
Warne Says He
Told Eskimos Of
Permit Rescinding

had been held for two months by
Soviet officials. One report said
the incident was due to the failure
of the State Department to notify
the Eskimos of the fact that the
agreement was no longer enforced.
The agreement was made in
March, 1938. Its purpose was to
give official sanction for Eskimo
trips to be made without the ne
cessity of obtaining visas or going
through other official formalities.
T,ast May the Russians notified
Washington that they considered
the agreement no longer valid.
They did not explain their deci
sion.
William E. Warne, assistant sec
retary of the interior, said notice
of the breach in agreement was
sent to the Eskimos as soon as it
was received from Russia.
Apparently one party of Eski
mos alre.ady had departed for the
Siberian coast as had been their
custom," Warne told a reporter.
Warne said he knew of no Siber
ian Eskimos venturing into U. S.
territory this year.
