duction problems. they say.
SHOULD BEAT IAPs ALSO
They say. too. that since the
final collapse of Stalingrad's de-
Tense might precipitate the long
expected japanese invasion of ST.
IBERIA, we should also beat the Jap
anese to the punch. The present
phase of near-war. keeping the
axis fidgety by forays on the
fringes of their defenses as at
Tobruk, the fact that every day
of the grinding siege Of Stalingrad
is costing the Nazis thousands Of
lives-those, they declare, are not
enough.
The arguments are valid, but
the simple fact is that they are
only arguments. Whether soon or
late, now or next month, this
winter or next spring, the second
front cannot be established until
our military experts say we are
ready for IL.
MUST BE SUCCESSFUL
Both President Roosevelt's and
Prime Minister Churchill's state
ments Of week ago that United
Nations action designed to relieve
Russia's plight had been settled
upon and were too binding in form
to have been mere CONGRATULATIONS,
but specific performances" will be
forthcoming only when there is
a reasonable guarantee of success.
An unsuccessful attempt,
whatever the urgency Of the
need to relieve Russia. would
lose us more In morale and
prestige-and gain the Naxis
more-than any tactical ad-
vantage involved In temporary
relief.
Whether 1t comes in Norway, in
France, from North Africa. from
the air or anywhere else, the Of
fensive must be successful and
must have a permanent and de-
cisive effect. Hitler has Illus
trated all over again that the
waging of war is a cold-blooded
and calculating thing, however
much the element of gambling
may sometimes be involved. Hit
Ter always wants his odds on the
long side, the longer the better.
In any campaign we would be
dolts and play straight into his
plans If we did not figure our
chances just as thoroughly and
selfishly in advance. That Is the
kind of selfishness that often turns
out to be wisdom in the end.

ship drills and battle problems are
practiced with diligence.
One recent battle problem stated
that an enemy cruiser had been
sighted. While the gunners simu-
lated an attack, our ship was struck
by torpedo" on the starboard side
and enemy planes began raining
imaginary bombs on us.
Sham action, fast and furious, fol-

Loading crews for the guns keep

Other gangs are constantly at
work-painting, chipping rust, swab-

Loafers are taboo.
Up on the various bridges officers
work continuously, plotting the
course, zigzagging the ship, watching
for signs of the enemy.
Our fiery, nimble little skipper has
deserted his sumptuous quarters on
the main deck to live on the naviga-
ton bridge for the duration of the
voyage. He rarely sleeps and then
only in short maps. His meals are
hurried and mostly unfinished.

Nelson Declares Victory
DEPENDS on New Ideas
By the Associated Press.


CAMBRIDGE, Mass, April 7s.--
War Production Chief Donald NJ.
Nelson declared yesterday that
Americans must shelve all prejudiccs
that hamper the war effort, must
prepare for rapid change and must
assume there is probably better
way 10 do almost everything"
Asserting that we must abandon
the idea that seniority means quail
ity," Mr.. Nelson added:
"This Ia neither an old mans war
nor young mans war. It Is a
smart mans war. Our enemies . d"
have made it essential that we not
underestimate them, that we not
only match and overmatch them in
the weapons Of war. but also in the
smartness and resourcefulness which
we apply to all phases Of the con-
fiict."
Il truly believe" wrote Mr.. Nelson
In the current Harvard Alumni Bull
letin, that our victory in this war
depends on the speed and enthusi-
asm with which all Of us can get
new mental attitude In regard to
our problems-a new mental atti-
tude which can come only through
discarding ruthlessly many cherished
habits OF thought and replacing
them with new ones"
