Shows 56% Forecast Roosevelt Victory if He Asks Third Term
Number of Voters Who Think He Will Run Again
Rises Sharply Since Beginning of War; Republican Hopes Show Decline.
By DE. GEORGE H. GALLUP American Institute of Public Opinion ~ PRINCETON, N. J., Nov. T—Will President Roosevelt be a candidate or a third term? will he be re-elected if he runs? Only President Roosevelt can answer the first of those questions, : only the voters of America can settle the second. The two questions are, nevertheless, the subject of burning discussion in Washington and elsewhere. As Washington leaders ponder the statement of Secretary

MOSCOW, Nov. 7 (U. P.).—War r Klementi E. Varoshilov told the Army units massed in Red Square today to celebrate the 22d anniversary of the Russian RevoluJiion that “we are at peace but we must follow international events closely and be ready for war although we shall not take part in war.” “The largest powers of Europe and Asia are involved in war, attempting to solve the unsolvable problems of capitalism by war, but the Soviet Union has been spared war due to its successful peace policy,” he said.
50,000 Troops March
In a section ostensibly directed at the Anglo-French attempts to get Russia to join their alliance, Commissar Voroshilov used a phrase that could refer as well to the German hopes that the Soviet Union would give armed aid to the Reich: “The far-sighted Stalin policy has not allowed those who like others to pull their chestnuts out of the fire to involve the Soviet Union in war.” He spoke to 50,000 picked soldiers and tens of thousands of workers who marched in review past Josef V. Stalin and other Soviet officials in a typical Red Square parade.

The theme of-the celebration had been outlined yesterday in the first manifesto by the Communist Internationale since the outbreak of the European war, and in a speech by Premier-Foreign Minister - Viacheslav M. Molotov. It was a verbal onslaught on [capitalism and “imperialistic wars.” Commissar Molotov, without mentioning the United States, obviously referred to it when. he agcused “some nations” of using neutrality to “mask their war agitation and hopes of huge profits at the price of misery and ruin.”

New Japanese ‘Puppet’ May Outsmart Tokyo| FAW
By WILLIAM PHIEIP SIMMS Times Foreign Editer WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.—A crisis in the Sino-Japanese War, hence a ‘corresponding turn in JapaneseAmerican relations, is ‘expected
shortly—perhaps within 30 days. Japanese spokesmen at Tokyo in-
dicate the ‘projected new ‘Govern-j:
ment will be set up in China by end of the month, with Wang Ching" wei, former President of China's executive Yuan and Minister of Foreign Affairs, at its head. This is taken to mean that Japan plans & new puppet staté like that established in Manchuria. If so iit will be vigorously opposed by the United States. The intimation by Chairman Key Pittman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that Congress might cause an embargo to be slapped on all exports to Javan has wide support here. Wang Ching-wei is no Henry Pu-yi (the former “boy Emperor” whom the Japanese placed on ihe throne of Manchukuo in 1934). He is a very intelligent mian—one of China's biggest brains. But Dr. Wang is a strange combination. He is intensely Chinese. with all which that connotes. But he is also a realist. Hence, as an intellectual jujitsu artist, he can hold his own with the astute Japanese “adavisers” with whom Tokyo would undoubtedly surround him. Jujitsu is the art of defeating an opponent by appearing to give way at the moment of attack. It is commonly regarded as Japanese in origin, but the Chinese were practicing it both in war and diplomacy; several thousand years ago. That is why “victorious” invaders usually have wound up by being absorbed by the Chinese. Dr. Wang pins his hopes on some kind of balance of power in the Far East. Eventually he believes China will come into her own through the world’s need for such a balance. He believes in peace, saying that sooner or later Manchuria and Jehol, now “occupied” by Japan, will come back to China just ‘as before and that China must keep both Japan and Russia strong for her own best interests. China counts time in centuries -rather than in years or in decades. Dr, Wang is Chinese.

two or three fields the huge export orders are not yet in sight. This suits the economists and the longer-headed businessmen, who fear such a boom and its resultant crash, But the Democratic politicians count or a 1940 war boom to return the party to power next November.
Dislocation Probable But whether the war trade turns out to be big or little, it will be large enough to cause plenty of dislocations. Here are some of the problems:

1. Over-expansion of the aircraft)

4. Loss of export trade in non-war manufactured materials. Britain has already curtailed purchases here of automobiles, women’s apparel, shoes, hosiery films and the like. 6. Dislocation and shortage of skilled manpower—the war indus tries take skilled mechanics away from normal industry, rather than tap the great reservoir of “unskilled unemployed. 6.
