Magnuson took the floor during a speech by Senator Wheeler (D-| Mont.) on the United Nations Charter to assert that any soften- ing in the American demands might be used by the Japanese militarists to “whip up their people” into continuing the war. Wheeler had said there is a} “rising flood of demands for a| definition of our terms to the Japanese,” adding that many be- lieved failure to outline these terms might be prolonging the war. Magnuson interrupted to declare that the reverse result might be true if there is any ckening in the demand for complete capitula- tion by the Japanese. - R ATTENTION PIONEERS . —— ° All Pioneers of Alaska are asked to attend funeral of Bro.
