TONE OF WAR:
Stepped UptUUd

Generally speaking, the advent of
March saw the war news on all
fronts stepped upward to new peaks
of activity, rumor and expectation
of a far more bitter and decisive
year than 1910.
There were more than minimal
signs that Hitler was preparing to
launch vital moves on at least two
fronts, with possibility that he might
add a third theater of war to his
effort and might include Japan to
take over a fourth.
Most war observers returning to
this country and able to speak freely
expected the invasion attempt to be
dated somewhere between March Is
and May l.
Resumption of test daylight raids
over England were viewed as GER
tain sign that the day was not far
distant.
The move in the Balkans was ap-
parently being made, with Bulgaria
scheduled as the avenue through
which Nazi hordes would be given
an open road to the Greek northern
frontier.
Signs were less definite that this
might be accompanied by move
to aid Italy in Africa, or that Hitler
would make a general Mediterran-
can offensive part of his spring plan.
A move which sent detachments Of
Nazi troops into Spain was explained
by German sources as the sending
of aid to Santander, badly wrecked

by hurricane and fire. In many
quarters, however, it was pointed
out that Santander was $50 miles
below the French border, and that
this force might be the vanguard of
a Spanish-Nazi army which would
make an attack or a feint against
Gibraltar.
In speech on the 21st birthday of
the Nazi party Hitler told his people
that new phase of the war was
coming in short time and threat
ened new and more terrible SUBJ
marine campaign against British
shipping. He said that new SUBJ
marine crews had been trained and
new U-boats would be launched in
the coming stepped-up attack.
The general belief was that Hit
ler's master plan of strategy was
unfolding itself gradually in a series
of moves, some of them military,
some of them diplomatic.
The plan, it was said, is based on
the fact that in any invasion of
Britain the Nazis would be under a
disadvantage in not being able con-
ceivably to put an equal force on
the British Isles.
This being so, the main Hitler
plan was said to be to strike in sew
eral different directions, i.e.,
Greece, Gibraltar, Africa, Malta,
Suez, and in the South Pacific in
order to screen the chief and CEN
trail effort to land troops in Britain.
1t is figured, so these authorities
say, that this plan might conceiv-
ably mislead the British into NOV
ing considerable groups of war units
from one territory to another, might
keep the fleet busy at the wrong
place, might cause the sending of
many British air squadrons away
from the isles themselves.
Should this turn out to be based on
fact, then it would push the date of
the invasion attempt back from ear
ier estimates, and make the May
date seem more likely than one in
March or April.

Army Trains Homing Pigeons for Two-Way Service

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The United
States army has developed a meth
cd of training homing pigeons to fly
two ways-something new in the pi-
gecn woodland as a result these
feathered military messengers have
assumed new importance as a
means of communication in war.
For many hundreds of years, pi-
geons have been used to carry mes
sages, but in one direction only. The
army now is training them to carry

SOCIAL:
Revolution

The old British caste system
showed signs of crumbling under the
pressure of the national emergency.
The social upper crust" were
taking their hats off to the East End
type of Londoner who was proving
himself hero in the war.
Smashed beyond recognition in the
September air raids, and with its
population suffering the heaviest
casualties of the war, the East End
ers showed their mettle as British
ers, and refused to be driven from
that part of the old town.
They were reported still living
there, in corrugated iron shelters
amongst the rubble of their former
tenements, Drawing the air raids by
day and night, and going about their
usual tasks calmly.
This sort of thing is not getting
them invited into the homes of
Mayfair, but it was seen as bringing
about social revolution that may
shatter the old caste system and
bring a different way of life to the
average "man-in-the-street" type of
Briton.
Not only in that way, but in mat
tiers of economics a big change was
seen for England. Instead of being
the financial and economic power of
the world, the England of the future
was visioned as a sort of "half-farm,
haf-factory country shipping man.
ufactured goods and emigrants to
the Western hemisphere, and leav-
ing the dominions increasing amount
of autonomy.
Even those who feel certain that
Britain will emerge the victor in
the war, and as such the arbiter of
the new Encouragement of world
power believe that the British en-
pire will be much decentralized.
Leading in this movement, with
the apparent approval of Prime
Minister Churchill WIS Ernest Be
vim, labor minister, who recently
gave out his immediate detectives
as:
Naturalization of all transport,
road, rail, and water; state control
of the Bank of England; public own
ership of all coal, gas, electric and
oil resources of the country.
On top of Bevin's promises of bet
ter things for the working man and
woman, Churchill has promised
better educational advantages for
the masses.
In England, the so-called public
schools are really private, and only
per cent of the nations population
have the money or position to entitle
them to enter. From these schools
have come practically all of the
army, navy officers and diplomats
and high-ranking government of
ficials.
In fact, there was a sign that
there might be a revival after the
war of the effort made in 1881 to
abolish the house of lords, which had
at that time vetoed an educational
measure.

instead of being a peacemaker, was
stirring up trouble by her actions
and troop and naval moves.
That Japan was either divided in
her reactions in the game of diplo-
matte and military bluff was evident
from what was made public. Am
bassador Nomura talked peace, dis
counted war. Japanese papers,
some of them, said Nomura's task
(of preserving peace) was hopeless.
Two things appeared certain in
the Far East. Hitler was moving
warily and under cover, and Japan
was moving under pressure from
her Axis partners, apparently I'M
willingly.

FAR EAST:
Crisis for u. S.

Most vital to this nation was the
crisis on the Far Eastern front, per-
haps part of the major Hitler plan
to weaken England by embroiling
the United States and Britain in a
war with Japan. ...-...
In this great diplomatic poker
game the stakes were the maximum.
Steps in the struggle, much of which
was being carried on behind closed
doors and in diplomatic chambers,
became gradually news items.
The British announced that the
waters off the Malay states were
being mined. The Chinese reported
100000 japanese troops were ready
to move in the general direction Of
Singapore.
The Dutch East Indies called all
ships into neutral ports. These
were just outward manifestations
that Japan, under Axis pressure,
was staging a show in the South
Pacific, a show that had repercus-
sions from the White House when
the President gently chided news
men and members of congress for
letting General Marshall's statement
of the seriousness of the situation
become public property.
In this game Germany was seen
as a kibitzer, but one who had Japan
handling her chips on fifty-ffty
basis.
In the midst of it all came the
announcement from Japan that Nip
pom stood ready to act as mediator
to conduct negotiations for peace by
all nations anywhere who were in
volved in war.
Ehis move received a cold recep-
ton in Washington, Sumner Welles
saying that with conditions at their
present pass, this nation was looking
to deeds, not words, and that Japan,

messages two ways-to the front
lines and back to headquarters, for
instance-and this is expected to
eliminate the problem of transport
ing pigeons forward.
The army's method of training pi-
geons to carry messages two ways
is a closely guarded military Sc
cret, Major Shawvan said.

Major Shawvan, are directed from

LEASE-LEND:
Fight Bitter

The closing days of the lease-lend
bill fight were bitter, but the out
come was portended when final polls
showed So senators ready to vote for
it, and 20 opposed.
This was somewhat less than
the majority which administration
forces had predicted would pass the
bill and put it into effect, but still
comfortable margin.
But the fighting in the last hours
was bitter, and many senators went
far out on verbal limbs in predict
ing what would happen when the
bill becomes law.
Senator Nye boldly declared "war
by April l." Senator Reynolds pro-
vided the most startling flop away
from Rooseveltian ranks and made
a three-hour speech against the bill
which used up Is columns of read
ing space in those anti-administra-
ton papers which printed its full
text.
The poll during the last days
showed 46 Democrats, 5 Republi-
cans and Independent for the bill,
with Democrats, II Republicans
and l Progressive against it.
Uncommitted were II Democrats
and IL Republicans, % votes and it
would take all of them to have up
set the majority of those who were
willing to commit themselves.
The comments of most of those
who said they would help pass the
bill seemed to be along the line
that they were voting for the bill
with "some reluctance" but felt
that it was the "only thing" to do.
But those opposed were vitriolic
in their condemnation, ranging all
the way from Nye, who called it
'the most outrageous grab of pow
er in American history" to Rey-
holds, who attempted to make his
opposition sound more restrained.

With the lease-lend bill close to a

about to rise on an increased tempo
in the war, and opposition members
of congress in both house and SEN
ate were loud in their claims that
30 days would see this country added
