War With Russia? No! Declares World-Traveler
By DON VAUGHAN
There will be no war with Russia, Dr. Jerome Davis told a University Daily Kansan reporter Tuesday. The only way a war will occur is for the United States to start it, he said.
"The U.S.S.R. wants only security in her part of the world, the same as any nation does. She has been ravaged by the war and will be years recovering from it. ◎ ___
"If our country demands too much from Russia and is refused, war may result. However it will be more our fault than theirs."
Asked About A-Bomb
Dr. Davis recently returned from a 25,000-mile trip in Europe. A sociologist, he first went to Russia after World War I as a relief worker. He has since visited the country, speaks the language, and has publish several books on various phases of Russian life.
When asked what effect the Russian A-bomb announcement may have, Dr. Davis replied.
"Any number of countries may well have the secret now. The thing that counts now is the know-how to make them. The U.S. has that and few others have.
"Russia wanted to outlaw the bomb a few months ago, but we blocked the move. This attitude worried the Soviets. It is now our time to worry for awhile."
About the attitude of Europe toward Russia, the former professor said.
"Russian influence in Europe is slipping. Even Walter Lippman will admit that. Evidence of it is found in the recent elections in France and Italy. Great Britain is moving away from the Labor government. Threats To World Peace
"However Russia and the U.S. are known as the two threats to world peace. Opinion as to which is the greater threat is about equally divided."
The role of the American press in American-Russian relations was emphasized by Dr. Davis.
"The press must attempt to be objective in its reports about that country. It is the only contact the people have and their opinions are based on what they read. Any par-
tiality displayed stems mainly from three causes: sensationalism, lack of perspective, and the fact that newspapers are big business and have those attitudes.
"Big headlines about the latest Russian veto will sell papers. Big business is naturally against Russia or anyone else who may upset the existing order of things."
Marshall Plan Advantage
Dr. Davis said that the Marshall pian "will no doubt woo many countries away from the Soviets.
"Just how long they will stay with us will depend on how much we ask in return. If we try to assume too much control, they will be alienated.
"One thing I can not understand is the way we pour aid into countries like Turkey who were neutral and actually aiding the Axis, while we totally exclude Russia from our program."
The solution to the problem of Russia and the United States is a re-vamped United Nations, Dr. Davis said.
"Faith in the U.N. and an urge for cooperation are the primary needs. If the organization was set up on the basis of population, like our house of representatives, with duly elected officials serving a given term, all people would have more trust in it."

New York—(UP)—Things are even getting tough on swank Park avenue.
The finalists will present eight minute speeches Nov. 20 at 7:30 in Frank Strong auditorium. An engraved silver loving cup will be presented to the winner.
Things Are Tough In Penthouses Too
getting tough on swank Park avenue. Tenants of a 15-story-and-penthouse apartment at 1070 Park avenue petitioned to the office of rent control not to let the landlord raise their rents.
They said the apartments have not been painted in the last four years; the laundry is in such poor condition laudresses refuse to work in it; the building has direct electric current, which prevents the tenants from having phonograph and television sets; and the landlord had taken down the street canopy.
Punishment Fits Crime
Allentown, Pa. — (UP) — Dominic Infanti, 27, stole a half-dollar from a March of Dimes donation box but later "contributed" $10 to the fund by order of Magistrate Robert R. Williams. Infanti's punishment included a separate $25 fine.
Worcester, Mass.—(UP) —Traffic tickets occupy a prominent position in Allen T. Abbington's budget. A fine of $29 for his 13th, 14th and 15th offenses has brought his total of fines to $105 since Jan 1.
