the experience of this war Is in
many directions such as the rela-
ton Of ship and plane. deck armor,
and so forth. It needs to be further
observed. We must be thought
fully and scientifically armed. Un-
due haste would defeat its own pur-
pose. That does not apply to the
creation Of facilities for production,
which must be first in any event.
Second: The Presidents proposal,
especially as to planes, is in a large
degree q task of increased indus
trial production. American industry
has more capacity in both skin and
equipment to meet the demand
than that Of any other nation. For
this job industry would surely be
glad to cooperate patriotically with
the Government.
Cooperation Needed.
There need to be coordination
between American and foreign or
ders and between the Army and
Navy. Our Army and Navy officers
are distinguished in their profess
sions. They know what they want,
but theirs is not the profession Of
industrial perfection. Now is the
time we need to call industry to
furnish that skill.

tive supply of coal is 1,500, 900 tons a
year. With war industries going at
full blast she would need 10000 600
tons, and, though Germany has un-
dertaken to provide her with 12,O00,-
600 tons a year by rail, it is extremely
doubtful whether the already worm
out German rolling stock could keep
this up.
Travellers arriving in Italy from

The same figures Of consumption
and home output apply to iron.
Explosives Production.
Italy's production Of explosives Is
said to be q maximum Of 200 tons
day, whereas her war needs are
estimated at 1000 tons. Of petrol
she has imported large quantities
since the war.
Substantial reserves Of motor fuel,
as of meat and corn, have been
accumulated during the last nine
months.
The political picture in Italy is
clear: the only war she can endure
is short one.

IOf Mercier
By the Associated Press.

Fighting once again at Louvain
revived memories today of one of
the Belgian heroes of the German
occupation in 1914-Desideratus
Cardinal Mercier.
It was In connection with the
burning Of Louvain that the Car
dinal issued his famous pastoral let
ter, Patriotism and Endurance" in
which he protested vehemently, and
declared the Belgians owed neither
respect nor allegiance" to German
authority.
Throughout the German occupa-
ton he remained a thorn In the side
of the German Governor General,
criticizing his DEGREES and declaring
confidence in ultimate Belgian free
dom.
In 1918, when the Germans left,
the Governor-Gen addressed
him as "the spiritual leader Of the
Belgian people"
Cardinal Mercier died In 1926,
mourned by King and commoner.

Demonstrating soldiers paraded

Reports indicated 40 to so soldiers

German-Canadian hall, the Aus

a dance hall.
One Of the demonstrators told

Moj Eliot Sees Break Through

BY MAI. GEORGE F. ELIOT.

BY MAI. GEORGE F. ELIOT.
The picture obtainable here OF
the military situation is again con-
fused and vague. Filtering through
the sieve of tight French censor
ship, some reports taken at face
value would seem to indicate that
the Germans have broken through
the main French defense line in
the vicinity of Sedan and are
striking deep into French territory.
But careful examination of these
reports, fragmentary as they are,
and comparison with other avail
able data do not lead to such grave
conclusions.
It is, indeed, probable that some
German armored troops have fl
tered through the French defenses
and have gone some distance be-
yond, flaming out" in the usual
tactics of such infiltrations in order
to disrupt the French supply and
communications. There is nothing
to show that this has been followed
by the penetration through the
French defenses of any large masses
OF German infantry and artillery.
This may have happened, or may be
happening; we merely say that
there is nothing that would indi-
cate it in the information now
available.
Fresh Troops Poured in.
Tho corr,,opC oro y,,,ff;o~ ~, fro.l.
troops in an endeavor, apparently,
to widen the breach; this would be
normal tactics. The French high
command describes the situation as
serious, and Paris has for the first
time been transferred from the zone
Of the interior to the zone of the
armies-that is, it has, as in 1914,
been placed within the territory
directly controlled by the COM
mander in chief Of the armies In
the field.
1t should be pointed out that the
Sedan-Longwy area, where the
Germans are attacking, is not the
Maginot Line proper. This ends in
the area Longuyon-M -Montmedy. From
Montmedy to the English Channel
there are, indeed, fortified lines
along the border, strengthened by
field works, tank barriers and the
like, constructed during the winter;
but these are not of the same
formidable character as the tre-
mendous works of the Maginot line
itself.
If the German penetration is in
deed no more than an infiltration
Of armored cars and light tanks, and
if the gap through which it came
can be closed, the situation is very
different one from a case in which
large masses of infantry and artil-
lery are coming through, with the
breach ever widening. In the latter
case, the whole Of the allied forces
between Sedan and the Channel, in
cluding all those in Belgium, might
be imperiled and the allied cause it
self in danger of a serious reverse.
But the French report that the stu
alton is under full control; rumors
of various places Gaon. Reims,
even Meaux) being in German hands
are categorically denied by Premier
Reynaud in person; heavy counter
attacks appear to be in progress,
and present indications point to the
Evening star., 1940-05-17

infiltration theory being correct, In
which case the situation Is not crit
ical.
British Prepare to Retire.
In Belgium the British report
having repulsed the Germans who
had penetrated Louvain; however,
there are some indications that the
British are preparing to retire from
the line Of the Dyle River to posi-
tions farther in the rear. This is
probably due to pressure on their
flank from German forces which
crossed the Meuse between Namur
and Sedan and are striking north
westward. Some of the Liege and
NaInur forts still hold out, harassing
German communications. When and
II these are taken the German pres-
sure in Belgium will doubtless be-
come more severe. There are hints
Of a German flank attack coming
from the Netherlands, but it has
not yet developed. This might i'm
peril Antwerp.
On the whole, the situation in
Belgium is little worse from the
allied viewpoint than 1t was yes
terday.
In France it may be a great deal
worse, or not much worse. There
is no way to tell. It all depends
on the character of the German
penetration and the weight the
Germans have been able to put, and
to keep putting, behind 1t. 1t is to
be especially noted that Paris and
London both report heavy air
counterattacks on the German ar
mored columns, which would indi-
cate that the German air force Is
not able to give their ground troops
as much protection as before.
The French high command seems
confident of getting the situation
under full control within q week. It
will be necessary to await further
clarification Of the situation before
it can be accurately assessed. Mean
while, neither over-optimism nor
panic seems justified. One point
worth noting Is that the Germans
make no assertions of any great
success in this area.
