As a result, it is to the market that we must princi- pally look for a rise in demand that "will justify the rise in production.

Allies will be able to make important gain through the great lines of fortifications on the Western Frcnt From this, it is argued that both sides will finally be forced to conclude some kind of a peace, If only to prevent Communism from engulfing all Europe. It has long been said that the only winner in a protracted European war will be Russia. And during the brief time this war has been fought, it is apparent that Stalin has achieved the only major victories. The ominous shadow of the U. S. S. R. blankets the Baltic completely and extends far into the Balkans. Many an expert argues that Hitler gave away far more than he gained when he made his deal with the Soviets. Today it seems certain that Russia holds the balance of power. She can stop Hitler cold in his northern advance she holds Germany at her mer cy when it comes to many essential supplies. On the other hand, if she threw in with Hitler and actually sent her vast army to fight with the Germans, few believe France and England could long survive. The probabilities seem to be that Stalin has definitely decided not to take the latter step it is to Russia's interest, most experts are convinced, that she stay neutral play one side against the other, and finally, when the two sides are worn and exhausted, step in and gather the spoils. ' Also of great importance is the current attitude of Italy. No longer does the controlled Italian press Heil Hitler at every opportunity and revile the French and British. Mussolini hates Communism, apparently, far more than he loves the Nazis.
