KARPOVITCH URGES SOVIET-U.S. TREATY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Orging an arrangement with Russia that would halt the Japanese drive to an empire, Michael Karpovitch, associate professor of History said in a broad cost over the Crimson Network last night that, "In spite of the different ideologies, a limited temporary working agreement with the Soviet is possible and advisable."

Professor Karpovitch said that fear of the Nazis dictates Stalin's foreign policy, but that if the British keep up their stubborn resistance, and if the United States sends supplies in great quantities to England, there is a good possibility that the Soviet may be coaxed out of Hitler's arms.

New pact invaluable to Turks

Commenting on the latest news, he continued, "if the Russians have really signed this new pact with the Turks to the effect that if Hitler attacks them, Stalin will be a benevolent nautral, it will mean a great deal, to the Turks, It will eliminate all chances of a two front war, but how far Stalin will go to resist Hitler here, I can not say."

Doubting the rumor that the Russians are cutting off their oil supply to Germany, Professor Karpovitch stated that he does not believe Russia is strong enough, or in a good enough position either from an economic or a military point of view to risk an open break as yet. "The Russo-Finish war proves to me Stalin's military strength, and all signs point to disorganization and scarcity from the economic side," he concluded.
