THIS WEEK and NEXT Twenty Years By RAY ARGYLE • To the very young, an event which occurred 20 years ago seems like something which happened a very long time ago. To those who are older,•11 might have been only yesterda.y. There wiB thus be many shadesof reaactiont to next week's 20th anniversary 'obser- vance of the' end of the war in Europe.. While VE -Day did not mark the close of Wild War May 8 siLll stands out as the, climatic dote of the war years, from 1939 to 1945: • • Twenty' years ma,y only be a flick ae time in, bitstotry.. But it is also a large period of time • in the average man's life. And so much. has 'happened in the past 20 years that had, its seeds ih those six years- of war, that it has taken the •Wiarld nearly a generation to recover.' . • It is beginning to appear that the recovery is almost earn - plebe.

Tremendous for"'s.es set in na6tion tinder the Stress of battle...have neshaped • our lives. The struggle between ideolo- gies goes on, butsa new retof rules has been surperimposed on' the old struggles .between stateS. World war has becomeniithin,k. able . (although not impossible) because all natiOnts would have ton much bo -lose. 'All countries. suffered heavily in World War 11. Military, casu- alties among the belligerents exceeded 15 million, nearly twice those of the finit great war.: The greatest Losses were sus- tained by the Soviet Union. Nearly eight minion men were killed in ,lotattle. Another three million, were rendered useless by injury. Ten mullitort civilians died of wounds, starvatien, or Nazi 'mistreatment. These 21 million victims rogrekented. 19 per cent of the Pepulation. Vast areas of the land were laid waste. A region as great as the Canadian prairies had become. scorched 'earth' • These figures. are worth re- peating at this time because the extent of Russia's losses are still not generally realized in the Western world. - • Out of this devastation was borne the d,etermination of Rus- sia's leaders to render Germany •incapable of -fighting another After war. It is this which accounts for the hardness of the Russian, line on Berlin and against the reunification of Germany. This also is why, Russia has enforced pro -Soviet satellite governments, on the states of Eastern Eur- ope. • While only the naive would suppose that the Communists have given up their hope of con- verting the world, the SerVival and defense of the Soviet Union itself hai been the main preoe- cupation of the Kremlin 'felder- • ship all these years. The defeat of Germany left Russia the roaster of eastern Europe in the spring of 1945. At- tention then turned to Japan, With the, fear that •much bloody fighting stili remained before the fanatical Japanese would sue for peace. Looked at from al perspec- tive of 20 years, it can now be seen that the U.S. and Britain were ant:dons to secure Russia's participation in thei war against Japan, but ate fearful of invit- ing the Russian bear siouth from his Siberian conpoimd. The solution was as dramatic as it was deadly. It in now ac- tepted by .competent historians, that Japan was ready -to quit two weeks before the first A- bomb .was dropped on Hiroshi- ma, But the -Ameiricrans . went' •ithead so as to knock . Japan quickly out Of the war before the Russians could eta im a share of the spoils!. • • • The 'world may still be in a terrible mess, but at least we harv,e lived through nearly 20 years of the Atomic age without world war. With the increasing "westernitation" of Russia, it has been replaced by China as the villazi of the peace. But that fs' another story. BARN CLEANER SILO UNLOADER &.
