SCRAP BRlTAINS OLD GENERALS -WELL

LONDON. Nov. Is (By Radio An
increasing proportion of the British pub
lie is inquiring more and more earnestly
into the problem of our conspicuous in
efficiency
Our record of land warfare upon the
western front, let us face up to it, has
been shameful. Outside Europe there
has been an emergence of fresh names
and a progressive improvement of our
military record, but in Europe. and in
spite of Joseph Stalin's plain appeal to
us to get busy upon the western front,
there is paralysis.
Frankly, the War Office and our au-
thorities dismay U.s. We are terrified
at the bare possibility of our generals
giving way. as they say, to popular
clamor" while still sticking to control
of the army and starting some wildly
silly old-fashioned invasion of the con-
tinent. because we realize that even if
there were not a single German or gun
on the western front they would still
contrive 10 make a mess of it.
They and their associated experts and
spokesmen have created that much
dependency and dismay. Not one of
them has been shot pour encourager les

Russian Front

The Russian defenders Of Leningrad,
Moscow, Rostov and Sevastopol-princi-
pal objects Of Nazi assault now-still held
their posts intact at last weeks end
The Germans made a little progress in
Crimea, but they lost some ground
around Moscow. Apparently they have
halted their move toward Rostov and
the turn into the Caucasus pending the
development of their attempt to reach
the Caucasus by Crimea
Friday was the best day the Soviet
armies enjoyed in many a week, and
the Germans that day admitted that
they were struggling bitterly everywhere
in Russia for yards of ground. The day
has passed when they can swallow their

Moscow. the Germans were driven from

fore Rostov an entire Nazi elite division
was routed, and the Russians are still
putting reinforcemerts into the Crimea.
The German news agency DNB. ad-
mitted on Monday that in the Crimea
desperate Russian counterattacks had
brought the German advance on the
Russian naval base Of Sevastopol ito a

mains the one area where the Russians

to starve out England and thought star

the instrument of victory over Britain.

man is spaSmodic and untrustworthy
fighter. very violent when he is reused
but very difficult to keep reused.
The men who fight in cave paintings
are loose scrappers. not warriors. There
have only been warriors since the dawn
of early cities and states. The warrior
appears in formation in early Sumerian
carvings. There you see him in sort of
phalanX, advancing with his shield
locked with that of the next man and
their spears at a level making an in
vincible line. These warriors trample
over the defeated undisciplined and
magnificent commander, with no upper
part to his head, leads them on.
War of Liberation.
I find myself in complete agreement
with Lord Beaverbrook as he expresses
himself in his chief evening paper in
this respect. He has called for minister
of European revolution. Plainly, he
realizes that our attack upon the western
front has to be warfare of liberating
young men, a straightforward war of
IL.
and powers, no struggle for "hegemony,"
it is either war for world revolution
or it is another spell of nonsensical
bloodshed
This must needs make it a relentless
war. The professionalism of the old gen.
erals has become intolerable. We have
seen the last of it, hope, in poor old
Petain surrendering to the Germans "as
one soldier to another" and expecting to
be treated with all the honors of war.
From his angle it seems to be quite in
the gentlemanly tradition to hand over
his country to the conqueror and to as
sist in the hunt for hostages when the
lower classes prove recalcitrant. We
cannot have that sort of thing in the
English-sp speaking democracies. This is
war to vindicate and avenge the muir
dered millions of common people and
for the old-fashioned order it has to be
grim.
We can contemplate no genteel Elba
business this time for Hitler and his
gang. They are criminals who have to
be executed and equally execution must
be done upon Quisling and all othe.
Quislings who still are attempting to
betray and battle the rising tide of hu-
man indignation. This war has to be
| ended in such a fashion that it cannot
be resumed, and that can be done only
by the firing squad and the hangman.

either by very young men-Alexander

Vendee and against Austria) and
Napoleon, for example-or by outsiders
and amateurs-Mohammed, Cromwell

ever the contending hosts have both
been in the grip of senior military men,
the war has been slow and dismslly

We are dealing with problem more
universal than the arthritis of our War
Office bloc.
One gets some inkling of the mentality
of the elderly military mind in the
shocking dispatches of Gen. Gort Brit
ish commander in Northern France in
1940) that have recently been issued.
Gen. Gort is a man of outstanding piety
and courage. His friendship with Gen.
Franco and the close identity of his views
upon modern life with those of Gems.
Weygand and Petain bear witness to q
very real detachment OF mind; neverthe-
less these dispatches show some of the
very worst qualities of q seasoned mill
tary character.
Young Men Discouraged.

thoughts-that he was not to blame.

Into those ports and over that line

Altogether, almost 100000 tons of
Axis shipping was sent to the bottom
or damaged seriously in the four months
ending with October. Prime Minister
Churchill told the House of Commons
Wednesday. He said that during that
same period Britains shipping losses
dropped almost by two-thirds.
Rudolf Hess, the leading mystery
character of the whole war, was named
by Churchill during this speech as the
