Seven Mistakes
CT Herr Hitler

act with enough speed.
The Fuehrer'S fourth mistake was
his failure to take advantage of
the confusion in Great Britain at
the time of the Dunkirk retirement
Germany was not ready to seize
that opportunity to try an invasion.
The Fuehrer's fifth mistake was
to designate specific time when
he would be in London debating
peace conditions The German
people expected Hitler to be lead
ing troops along Picadilly by mid
August, a date which was later
changed to mid-September.
The Fuehrers sixth mistake was by
limiting the terms of the French
armistice so that they excluded
German use of the French fleet and
German occupation of the French
African empire. At the time of
the armistice, Hitler expected a
quick easy victory over Great Brit
ain and he made a show of gen.
erosity to France.
The Fuehrer's seventh mistake
was in allowing Italy free hand in
Greece and North Africa. He mis-
calculated the weakness of the
Italian army and permitted Musso-
lini to venture forth on his own
responsibility.

Arizona's S Water,
Power Authority
Plan Introduced

PHOENIX, Jan. 81. (UP)-One of
the major proposals in Gov. Sidney
P. Osborn'S reorganization pro-
gram.-a bill for creation of an Ari-
zona power and water authority
was pending today in the state leg
iSlature.
The measure was submitted III
the senate by Sen. William Coxon
of Pinal county. An identical bill
was introduced in the house.
The power and water bill was
drafted under personal supervi-
sion of the governor and included
the following provisions
l. Appointment of a three man
board whose members would receive
a salary not to exceed $4,000 a year
2. Transfer to the power anG
water authority of the control ano
administration of the water and
power resources of the Colorado ri
yer.
3. Transfer to the authority the
duties now belonging to the state
water commissioner, state cerifi-
caion board, the board of reservoir
control and similar units difusine
powers and duties which for eff
ficiency and economy should be
concentrated with a single author
ity.'
4. A provision that all revenues
acruing to the state from earnings
of Boulder Dam be entrusted to the
power authority for use in develop
ing the states power and water
resources.
The Coxon bill provided for the
development of the Colorado and
its tributaries by means of primary
projects initiated and administered
by the power authority or by its
cooperation with local organiza-
tons and existing water districts.
To permit immediate operation of
The authority, the bill asked a spe-
eial appropriation of $3.50 900 which
would be returned from the account
of the new board as soon as avail
able.

Italy Masses Men
In Desperate Move
To Save Benghazi

LCNDCN, Jan. 81. CUP)-Italy
has massed $4,000 men before Ben
ghazi for an attempt to save the
city, capital of Cyrenaica and eX-
pected terminus of the drive of the
British army of the Nile into Libya
it was reported today.
Gen. Annibale Electric WhiSk-
ers" Bergonzoli, who escaped from
the British forces at Bardia was
believed to have been entrusted
with command of the italian force
at Benghazi.
Two British armies were moving
westward toward Benghazi, one
through the interior desert and
across the Jebel Ell Akhar or Green
mountains, the other along the
coastal road from Derna, whose
complete occupation was announc-
ed yesterday
British advance units were under
stood to be already feeling out the
italian positions in the Benghazi
area and awaiting the arrival of
the larger bodies.
There had been some speculation
whether the Italians would try to
make a real stand at Benghazi. But
military advices from Cairo made
it plain that a defense was expect
ed, possibly one which would make
Benghazi the most difficult prize
in the whole British North African
offensive. A military spokesman
at Cairo said that is was nonsensi-
cal to expect triumphant British
| march into Benghazi.
Military informants made it plain
also that the advance of big Brit
| lsh forces on Benghazi would prob
ably be Slow. Derna will be used
as supply base. and the British
especially in the coastal zone, will
have the aid Of the navy. But
communication lines are getting
longer, German dive bombers are
now based ins Sicily and the noun

Vancmg westward through the des-
ert are difficult.

vines and offers formidable bar

United Press War Expert

IN raising the question OF war
mistakes during his speech Thurs
day, Hitler confessed his own falll-
bility but did not identify the er-
rorS he has made. The most i'm
portant ones, however, are suf-
ficiently conspicuous to be easily
specified They number seven.
The F'uehrer's first mistake was
not to begin his air attacks on
Great Britain at the start of the
war. He had an enormous super
iority in the air while the British
were deficient in first class fight
ing planes.
Great Britain had anticipated the
possibility of 250,000 casualties from
air bombarment during the opening
period of the war and had pre-
pared 100000 extra beds for emer-
gency hospital treatment. T h e
Germans waited 10 months, however,
before planning their air blitz-
krieg; and in that time sufficient
British fighters were ready to pre-
vent the Nazis getting control of
the air.
The Fuhrer's second mistake oc-
cured when the Belgian army sur
rendered A wide open break in
the Allies fighting front was pref
sented to the Germans but they did
not have their reserves ready to
take advantage of it.
The Fuehrer's third mistake took
place at Dunkirk when he allowed
the British to escape across the
channel. He did not order suf-
ficiene planes to the coastal zone
to meet the desperate British fight
ers. Nor did his mechanized unit
