Interminable query as to why Rus-

the use of Siberian airfields io that
we can get at the Japanese main-

a much more realistic explanation
of Moscow’s attitude.
Quite apart from the non-aggres-

anyone in the Allied councils Rho
would dream of asking an al/eady
overburdened Soviet to take o|i the

understanding is that high Allied

brutal to suggest any such thing.
