Flanked by Secretary of State Byrnes and his personal chief of staff Admiral William Leahy Mr Truman stood behind his White House desk and made his simple one-sentence announcement: "Russia has

Washington the announcement was not unexpected There had been omens for months that Russia eventually would go to war "In the Pacific The only question was when A Truman-Stalin Attlee communique at the close of the Potsdam conference gave no clue It omitted any mention of Japan It carried a single significant sentence however that chiefs of staff had considered military matters of common interest But a high government official said an understanding achieved at Yalta that Russia would fight Japan was sealed at Potsdam Moscow confirmed the Potsdam decision The Japanese apparently were too stunned for the moment to give any indication of their intentions American military experts saw three possibilities: 1 That the Nipponese warlords will decide that holding out further is hopeless and they have ample reason to give up a hopeless struggle against the massed military might of the rest of the world 2 That they may decide to Japan should have foreseen however for months ago Russia denounced her non-aggression pact with the Japanese There had been other hints that the Soviet Union would go to war with Japan within 90 days after Germany quit At the San Francisco conference wiich
