British May Ask Naval Aid
Appeal to U. S., if Made at All, Believed
Likely to Come in Next Few Months

the Allied successes In the Mediter-
ranean will prove 50 profitable as
to release both naval and air forces
for the defense of the British Isles.
In any event, If Britain can handle
that crisis-and 1t might come at
any time, by the way-she likely
will be able to weather the rest of
the war storm, with the material
aid from our arsenal Of democ-
racy." AS President Roosevelt
pointed out in his message to Con-
greSs, she doesn't need man power.
In saying this we mustn't, Of
course, overlook the danger which
the Nazi submarine campaign has
created for Britain. Much of her
trouble Is due to lack Of sufficient
warships for conveys.
japanese Bugbear Cited.
Still, one would expect her to solve
that difficulty without asking any
one actually to enter the war to
help her out. The Admiralty an
nounced today that in the week end
ing December 80 only 1856 tons Of
shipping was lost-about half the
average weekly loss since the war
started.
Fear that the United States might
use its Navy to aid Britain has had
the axis on tenterhooks for months
Italy, in particular. has been issuing
warnings to Washington to keep
hands off, and has been holding up
the bugbear of trouble for us with
Japan.
Tyuical of these threats was one
by Mario Appelius, authoritative
Fascist commentator. Writing in
Mussolini's newspaper II Popolo
dItalia, he declared that Japan was
preparing to attack Singapore in
event the United States entered the
war. He warned America that she
would face the combined forces of
the German, italian and japanese
empires-20, 100000 soldiers, 1000, 900
tons of warships and from $4,000 to
10000 warplanes.
The object of such tub-thumping
is, of course, to create the idea OF a
threat to us in the Pacific and there
by prevent us from making any COM
mitment which would call for the
use of the fleet in the Atlantic.

question of its feasibility has been
settled once for all under the chalk
cliffs of Dover, or the attempt has
been abandoned as a bad job.
If and when the assault Is made
it will call for great fleet to repel
it. That engagement, fought over
and on and under a seething Eng
lish Channel, and up against the
beaches of both shores, bids fair to
be the most colossal thing of its
kind in history.
The British will need every man
O. war, and every second cousin to
a man O. war, on which they can
lay their hands. They believe they
can defeat the attempt, and so do
most neutral military experts, for
Hitler will be making a long shot.
Emergency Elsewhere.
Still, circumstances might be such
as to necessitate the use Of an I'M
usual number Of warships else
where to meet an emergency. 1t is
possible, for instance, that Hitler
might use the army he has massed
In the Balkans in an effort to force
the Dardanelles and thereby create
diversion which would demand
British seapower, and plenty of it.
Such a situation might result in
an appeal to America for naval help
However, 1t is equally possible that
