Navy, including Rear Admiral
Isaac C. Kidd, had been killed
and 20 others wounded, along
with 1888 enlisted men killed
and 636 wounded, is a terrible
blow. and will be so regarded.
With this statement Of the
heavy casualties in the Navy, Sec
retary Knox has related stories Of
great personal courage and clear
headedness on the part of the
Navy during the attack. He has
brought back, moreover, word
that the morale Of the Navy in
spite of these losses is excellent;
that what the officers and men
want most is another chance at
the Japs.
Cites Fifth CoYumn Danger.
One disturbing feature of Mr..
Knox's statement was the success
of fifth column activities in
Hawaii. The japanese had OBJ
tained from these allies the full
est possible information regard
ing the disposition of ships and
planes, tied up and on the ground
1t is the kind of thing that must
be guarded against not only in
the far outposts of the country,
like the Hawaiian Islands and the
Philippines. The fifth columnists
not only are able to give exact
and damaging information to the
enemy. but to carry out sabotage
In this country. Mr.. Knox said
the fifth column had been used
with more success in Hawaii than
any other place except Norway.
Representative Manasco of Ala
bama has in preparation a bill
which, if enacted into law, should
be Of great aid to the Govern
ment in dealing with saboteurs
and with any fifth column. He
proposes that every one in the
country, 16 years of age or older,
be registered and fingerprinted.
BY this means the Government
would have record at hand
which would be of great value in
running down all subversive ac-
tivities. Some of the leaders in
the House already have spoken
in favor Of such a measure-in
wartime. 1t has been urged in
some quarters that such a meas
ure would entail great deal Of
expense. 1t might, however, be
money well expended. AS soon as
he has the measure in the form
he desires, he will introduce it
and seek to have the House Judi
ciary Committee, to which it
probably will be referred, act
favorably on it.

have' warned the Vichy leaders
that unless they side definitely
with the Reich and cooperate for
the common victory in the
shortest possible time, France will
be left out of Nazi calculations
and will have to suffer all the
consequences when the democ-
racies are defeated.
Before the United States en-
tered the war the tendency of the
Vichy rulers, especially Vice Pre-
mier Admiral Jean Francois Dar-
Ian and his clique, was to side
with the Germans. Now, strange
ly enough, the French leaders
are said to be less enthusiastic
for active cooperation with the
Axis, in spite Of Japan's initial
success against Hawaii.
This lukewarm attitude of
Vichy toward helping Hitler es-
tablish the new order in Europe
is reported by American observers
at Vichy to be due to the belief Of
French military and naval lead
ers that the United States can
not be defeated.
French Were SkepticaL
In frequent conversations be-
tween American representatives
and French leaders in Vichy the
latter expressed doubt that the
United States would become in
volved in the war. They main
tanned the view that this country
could not supply Britain in the
face Of a determined German
submarine campaign and that it
would be impossible for us to
provide the British Imperial Army
in the Near East and the Russian
Army, too, with war materials In
time to meet the major German
onslaughts.
Furthermore, the Vichy vice
premier has repeatedly stated
that the United States. like other
democracies, cannot be united,
and that the American masses
are not willing to give up their
SNUG comfort in order to fight
. war thousands of miles away
when American shores neither
are nor could be threatened by
an enemy. A nation not united
in purpose. Admiral Darlan is
reported to have stated emphat-
ically last October, cannot pos
sibly be victorious, and he sadly
points to the lessons of France.
The Japanese attack and the
response Of the American people
Evening star., 1941-12-16

The President is now expected to
order formal investigation.
Until that is completed, judg-
ment should be withheld.
Demands for wholesale court
martials Of high ranking officers
in command at Honolulu and
Pearl Harbor were made during
the last week in hysterical man
ner. The facts developed by the
coming inquiry will settle the
question whether there was error
Of judgment or any dereiction of
duty. Further action will de-
pend upon the information OBJ
tanned and the recommendations
made by the investigating board.
Mr.. Knox's statement was
made after he had been over the
ground himself and talked with
officers of the Army and the
Navy. To the layman it seems
incredible that, with the threat
of war and possible attack before
any declaration of war took
place, so many ships Of the Navy
should have been tied up at the
docks in Pearl Harbor. There
may have been reason for this,
and If so the inquiry will un-
doubtedly bring it to light. There

BY GOULD LINCOLN.


Outstanding in the report Of
Secretary of the Navy Knox to
the American people on the
treacherous attack made by the
Japanese on Pearl Harbor was
his statement that the Pacific
Fleet is now at sea, seeking to
contact the enemy. This gives a
very different picture, despite the
admitted loss Of materiel and
men by the Navy, from the bonn
bastic claim of the Japanese
after the Pearl Harbor attack
that they now had control of
the Pacific. 1t further bears out
the report of Admiral Hart sew
eral days after the Pearl Harbor
attack that the feet had caught
sight of the Japanese fleet and
the foe had scuttled off into the
darkness.
The statement by Secretary
Knox, while it revealed the dis
aStrouS loss Of life suffered by
the Navy, gave the lie to numer-
Gus rumors which swept WASH
ington-and, indeed, the rest of
the country-after the Pearl Har-
Dor attack. Included were re-
ports that the facilities of the
harbor had been damaged, even
to the extent of blocking the
channel, leaving the fleet unable
either to enter or leave the har-
Dor. There were reports of much
larger destruction to naval YES
sells than the loss of six an
nounced by the Secretary. For
tunately these have now been
shown to be erroneous. The
damage was bad enough. There
Is no minimizing that fact. 1t
was, however, unfortunate that
credence should have been placed
in unconfirmed rumors-or in the
reports emanating from Toxic.
There was no evidence, accord
Ing to Mr.. Knox, that German
flyers had assisted in the attack,
or that the Japanese had used
some new weapons or new de-
vice to make their raiders more
effective. Obviously, the country
should wait for official statements
and confirmation Of the results
of naval and military actions.
Should Wait on Investigation.
The Secretary Of the Navy, on
the other hand, said frankly
that the services, both naval and
military, had not been on the
alert against the surprise attack.

is threatening France with COM
plete neutrality-suspicious. be-
tween the Reich and Italy-if she
refuses to contribute her feet
and African bases to the COM
mon cause"
Whether the French will be
able to stall off the Germans or
will be compelled to yield is like
y to be revealed soon.
The italian Navy must be
counted out. 1t will never leave
the Mediterranean unless the
British fleet now in that sea is
sent to the bottom. The German
Navy can fight, but Hitler never
intended it to do anything but
raid Allied sea lanes and prevent
transportation Of war material.
German battleships, aircraft
carriers and cruisers are few.
They certainly do not have strik-
ing power. But If the French
fleet could be added to the Nazi
sea forces, a serious situation
might develop in the Atlantic.

Employers Urged TO Pay
Bonuses in Defense Bonds

Employers throughout the United
States were urged to pay Christmas
bonuses in Defense Savings bonds
or stamps by the Board Of Direc-
tors of the Federation Of Business
mems Associations at a special
luncheon meeting yesterday at the
Hay-Adams House
j. Nelson Anderson, sponsor OF
the motion, also requested that the
action be supported by the Treasury
Department.
The group, on motion Of J. M.
Heiser, suggested that employers
turn over to their respective deputy
air raid wardens the names, ad-
dresses and telephone numbers OF
their employees. The employees then
would be available, according to Mr..
Heiser, to serve as emergency air
raid wardens in the daytime when
the regular wardens for the area
would be working.
Members of the federation were
urged to cooperate in the Christ
mas campaign being sponsored by
The Star by William j. Mileham,
president.

The Political Mill
Knox's Statement Of Novy's Losses Clears Air Of
Tokio-Inspired Rumors of Supremacy in Pacific

have been rumors that the Navy
was tipped OF as much as five
days in advance to expect an
attack from the Japanese at
Pearl Harbor on Sunday, Decem-
Der 7. Secretary Knox fatty
denied there had been any such
warning.
Statement Clears Air.
The air has been cleared con,
siderably by the full statement
made by Mr.. Knox. 1t is true
that the Secretary did not give
the names of other ships which
had been damaged, or the detail
OF that damage. He did say,
however, part of this damage had
already been repaired, and that
all of it would be shortly. Only
a few ships will take as much as
q week to several months to re-
pair. One of these was the
Oklahoma, which has capsized
but can be righted and repaired.
1t has been hard waiting for
the detailed presentation of the
picture of what happened in
Pearl Harbor. The announce
ment now that 81 officers of the

This Changing World

rallying behind President Roose-
velt seem to have altered the
views of the principal figures in
the French government. The re-
ports which Admiral Darlan is
receiving about the determination
Of American citizens to sacrifice
their comforts and even the
American standard of living" to
fight the war have deeply i'm
pressed the French rulers.
Darlan Impressed.
A particular phase of Americas
first week in the war-the fact
that the United States is de-
termined rather than optimistic
seems to have particularly I'M
pressed Admiral Darlan.
Hence, for the first time since
the collapse of the French armies
there seems to be hesitation on
the part of Marshal Petain and
Admiral Darlan regarding full
cooperation with the Axis, and
the French, who have suffered
SO severely already, do not want
to be on the losing side again.
But in spite of these tendencies
favorable to the United States
and its allies, fears are expressed
In Washington that this change
OF heart may have come too late.
Now more than ever the Nazis
need the French feet and French
bases in North Africa. Adolf
Hitler has declared war on the
United States and has boasted
that he will strike at US first.
In order to do so he must have
the French bases at Dakar and
Casablanca.
Hitler Applying Pressure.
In order to carry through his
plan to hit America first, Herr
Hitler Is putting tremendous
pressure on the French, combin-
ing threats with promises. He
is Turing the Vichy government
with promise to establish huge
French empire at the expense of
Great Britain and, in a way, Of
Italy. But at the same time he

largely in Germany's six years of
undisturbed preparation and con-
sequent superior fighting strength.
Japan has attempted to compen-
safe for her inferior position, both
in potential and actual resources,
by bold use of the initiative to gain
time. This is only another way of
saying that If the Axis Is to win at
all, it must win within a definite
time limit.
The opponents of the Axis still
are engaged very largely in build
ing up fighting power; in the trans
lation Of potential resources into
fighting resources. 1t Is clear that
in order to avoid defeat during this
period Of preparation, to avoid waste
motion, lost opportunities and du-
phcation Of effort, and to insure
final victory at the earliest possible
date and with the least possible
loss, two things must be achieved:
l. The opponents Of the Axis
must unite in common action, and
the cause OF one must become the
cause Of all.
2. They must provide a proper
agency for devising the grand STRAIT
egy of the war-that is, for con-
trolling and directing the employ
ment of their resources so that these
may be used to the best advantage
in a common effort rather than
split up amongst different objec-
tives and local interest. Otherwise
their superiority may not avail
them and they may be beaten in
detail.
Must Be a Master Plan.
First of all, there must be a mas
ter plan, master strategy of the
war; broad general decisions must
be taken as to the manner in which
the war is to be prosecuted; the
theaters in which offensive action is
to be taken and those in which q
defensive attitude must for the time
being be assumed; the ALLEGATION Of
the available resources Of these va
rious theaters SO as to produce the
results with the means at
hand-all these decisions require
the consideration Of the Allied
powers, for allies they must be, and
to take them intelligently requires
the first-hand information at the
disposal Of each, brought to a COM
mon council table and made the
basis Of intelligent and open dis
cussion by representatives of the
powers concerned, each In the pres
ence Of the others and not working
back and forth by wire or radio be-
tween capitals thousands of miles
apart.
Once the master strategical plan
Of the war has been worked out,
there will follow the infinite variety
Of day-to-day decisions upon which
the execution Of that strategy must
be based, by which the unforeseen
