Barurl.'i prediction was that tha natiun was htll-bafor inflation and soon. Piecemeal incraases in wages, profits and the coat of living have been uneven, Baruch said, with wages lagging behind. For that reason he no longer favored bis prewar idea el a freeze on both prices and wages. Our only hope, said the elder statesman, is that we tan weather the next six to nine months without running into serious inflation.

The Political Bureau is a small body chosen from the central committee of the Communist party, which is the "Polit-Burea- u entity. government's Thi body is composed of powerful Soviet leaders and it exerts a great deal of influence. According to the reports touching on Utvinov' position, the waa sharply divided Into "isolationists" and those who looked upon the rest of the world with a less jaundiced view. At that time Stalin was said to be walking a tight-rop- e between the two and choosing carefully toward which side he would lean. Utvinov, who believed that Russia could not live by herself and who had always encouraged a sympathetic attitude toward the outside world, had been completely shelved for hia ideas. Uttle more waa heard of these rumblings until after the end of the war, when tbe Red army became the symbol of Russian salvation. Then it appeared that the isolation-le- t y Russia, the Russia, the Russia which wouldnt take anything off anybody, had a new and powerful babker the officers (and perhaps some ef the rank and file as well) of the Red army.
