h .rbors IS on a separate Island Anami offers a large interior area with ? entrances separated bv a distance of some 20 miles and good defensive possibilities Whether an attack Is made on the Bonins and Amami or not, fleet, air, and submarine opera tion can be conducted from the more westerly of the Aleutians as far south as Kyushu, which falls within a circle having a radius of 2,50O miles from either Attu or Kiska.
 The mere existence of we'll fortified and developed bases Tn the Aleutians would have a strongly deterring effect upon any tendency to treSpass on the Philippines, the East Indies, Singapore, or Australia. We should hasten the completion of the Aleutian survey and select, coup, and fortify fleet, subma- rine, and air bases in the Aleu- tian Islands, to and including Attu.

 Offensive Value
 The possible use of the Aleu- tians in offensive operations in alliance with Russla was con- templated in the preparation of the Seattle-Nikolaievsk table of distances heretofore given. In the event of such an association with Russia, the islands would serve, among other things, as part of a tontinent-to continent line of communication between the Allies passing north of Ja- pan. The entire line would in- clude four fleet harbors, Puget Sound, Sitka Sound, Unalaska and Avacha, and many smaller harbors and anchorages. In a clash with a purely Oriental power Russia and England are our natural allies because of their Asiatic and Australian pos sessions and their insular hold ings in the Pacific which some OrientaIs covet and because of their other far eastern interests.
 The AIeutians would also prob ably be used in any offensive di- rected toward the Bonins and Amami,o Shima. These islands lie of the coast of Japan much | as Bermuda and the Bahamas, enemy-held through two of our wars, lie off our own coast. There are 3 harbors in the Bonins, the best of which is Port Lloyd (9l frst-cIass. 25 second-class, 36 third class berths) Two miles to the north of Port Lloyd is Walker Bay 6 6rst-class, 23 second- class, 34 third-class berths), and 29 miles south of Port Lloyd is Oklmura Ko (36 frst-class, 100 second class, 169 third-c l a 5 s berths). Okimura Ko is exposed to the westward. Each of these

of illness. In West Virginia,
Gov. M. M. Nicely scored anoth-

I'D Rather Be Right
Aerial Second Front to Bomb Nozis Out Of War
AssoiIed as IsoIotionist Evusion Of Issue

Because, If Hitler beats Russia,
his planes come back home, and
who will be hardy enough to say
that he cannot maintain local air
superiority over his most vital CEN
ters? The loudest .exponents OF air
power have habit of forgetting that
the other side builds planes. Also,
the hope that y. or Hitler's losses,
will be greater than K, or ours, does
not guarantee victory. His losses
have to be enough greater than ours
to knock him out Of the war: y
could be five times x. and still not
do that. Actually. Hitler must have
discounted a certain amount OF loss
from the air. He'll, he expected us
to do something. He didn't think
we would sit there, like dummies.
Give Him \ Summer.
Besides, the aerial second front
guarantees to Hitler no action in
the west this summer and no in
vasion this fall. These are not
variables, but constants; things
Hitler can depend on; Interchangeable
benefits on his side of the equation.
But then, your statistical warrior
often gives away more than he
keeps. So, on this point, though I
am as air minded as anybody in the
country, I part company from Maj.
de Seversky, and bid you ladies and
gentlemen to do so also If you desire
to retain possession OF your shirts.
I can't forget z, or time. Cargo
planes, certainly, to bring supplies
at once to those armies, Russian
and Chinese. which alone have
major contact with the enemy.
Long-range bombers instead OF air
craft carriers, Of course: we can
build them In q fourth of the time
1t takes to build 4 carrier, and they
can arrive at the scene OF action In
a tenth of the time 1t takes q carrier
to travel; plenty OF here, or time;
50, good. Air-borne troops, wonder
full; flying troops to action saves
more z. But air alone, merely be-
cause 1t is air, merely because 1t is
not land or water, becomes q doo-
dad, and If you postpone the second
front this summer for the sake of 1t,
air power then gives you q net loss
Of z, or time, which is a strange
way for air power to behave.
I fear the calculators, bringing
statistics. I fear any plan which
bids us do what Hitler expects us to
do, and no more.

By SAMUEL GRAFTON.

The aerial second front: We have
all Just discovered that airplanes
can fly. We are somewhat ex-
cited by the news. A lot Of tall talk
is being heard, therefore, about
bombing Germany out Of the war.
Well. If I were an isolationist, I
would be for bombing Germany out
of the war from the air. First, It
would take from six months to a
year to prepare the campaign, and
any delay strokes an isolationist's
feathers in gratifying fashion. Sec
ond, it would spare Germany the
need for withdrawing armored
forces from Russia, because armored
forces are not used against planes,
neither is infantry, and thus Ger
many could 60 on numbering Russia
during this aerial second front,
which makes 1t a curious second
front, indeed.
Hit Him With = Chart.
Isolation takes different forms in
different periods, and sometimes 1t
will fly through the air on bomber
plane. We must look beneath the
form Of each proposal to its sub
stance, and the substance of this one
is anti-risk, anti-invasion, pro-de-
lay: but the real give-away Is that 1t
is so exouisitely statistical. 1t bases
its hopes on an equation in which x
equals the planes and pilots we
would lose in an aerial second front,
and y equals the factories Germany
would lose. the entire proposition
resting on the assumption that y
will be greater than x.
This mathematical form Of mortal
combat, this welding Of statistical
sidearms, this offer to NOW the
enemy down with a chart, has been
the signature of all those who tried
to evade the issues In this war. I
can remember when they put their
hopes In the fact that the Atlantic
Ocean is 5000 miles wide. They
couldn't help laughing when they
though how disguised Hitler would
be when he discovered that secret.
Now they have climbed from mental
arithmetic to simple equations; from
counting on their fingers they have
progressed to doing 1t with pencil
but 1t still doesn't make.
Do What He Expects.
You can't beat Hitler with Stats
tics. The K, y equation needs q
third element anyway, 3, standing
for time, or: When do you expect
to do all this, handsome? II your
equation is to be valid, you must
guarantee that your program will
start, and take hold, before Hitler
can defeat Russia. That guarantee
must be absolute. Failing that, your
equation becomes a limerick writ
ten on a back fence, proving onl,
that somebody has been lettering
here.

The Political Mill
Labor Emerees Second Best in Virginia Primaries;
Voters Antoeonzed by Continuance Of Strikes

Republican gubernatorial nom
ination in the primary there.
There was more In this con-
test, however, than the labor
issue. In the background lay a
bitter struggle between Senator
Reed and former Gov. ALI M.
Landon. Mr.. Landon was sup
porting Andrew Schoeppel, for
mer chairman of the Corporation
Commission, who won the NOM
ination. A third candidate. 1t.
Gov. Friend, ran second, leaving
Senator Reed In third place. Mr..
Reed has two more years to
serve OF his present term in the
Senate. He is the second Sen
ator to try for a gubernatorial
nomination this year and fail.
The first was Senator Davis, Re-
publican, of Pennsylvania.
Senators Renominated.
Two veteran Senators, one a
Democrat and the other a Re-
publican. were renominated in
Tuesdays primaries. The first
is Senator Carter Glass of Vir-
ginia, who had no opposition
and whose reelection is as cer-
tain as anything can be. Sem
ator Glass has the admiration
of Republicans as well as Demo-
Gratis In his State.
The second is Senator Arthur
Capper of Kansas, who was first
elected to the Senate In 1918
and is now completing his fourth
six-year term in the Upper
House. Senator Capper had
two opponents, one of them John
Mcpherson, an oil man. Before
this country was attacked by
Japan last December Senator
Capper had been regarded as a
member of the isolationist bloc,

In 1910 and 1941.
However, Gen. Auchinleck can
not riskopening . drive un-
less he Is certain Of success. He
has an extremely shrewd oppo-
nent and . setback might have
disastrous consequences for the
entire Near Eastern front. The
reinforcements he Is receiving
would give him certain assur-
ance, provided the Nals do not
rush much greater forces across
the Mediterranean in the mean
while.
It Is believed in military quar-
ters that the presence of impor-
tant American and British air
forces in Egypt might make 1t
difficult for the Axis to transfer
forces from Italy to Libya. II
this hope fails, important devel-
opments can be expected In the
desert before this month ends.

Of 80 per cent or more Of Its oil
supplies can fight only guerrilla
warfare. If the Nazis succeed in
isolating the Caucasus from the
rest Of the USSR, large-scale
Russian operations In the i'm
mediate future appear doubtful.
So certain does Hitler appear
of the success of his second
campaign against the Soviets that
in the last 10 days large move
ments of troops have been re-
ported toward Italy and the Bal
kans.
Movement Toward Italy.
Ever since Field Marshal Er.
win Rommel was stopped be-
fore Ell Alamein six weeks ago
the Nazis have been moving
troops toward the Mediterranean
from Bulgaria and Yugoslavia.
Some OF these forces were trans
ported across the sea to various
Nazi bases In North Africa-es-
pecially Bengasi and reputedly
Bizerte, Tunisia-but the bulk
was sent to the Greek shores and
the Dodecanese Islands. The
island of Rhodes has been hum
ming with activity recently and
a number of Nazi air squadrons
have arrived there to reinforce
Italian aviation.
Reliable reports reaching
Washington also indicate that q
major troop movement toward
Italy is in progress. Passenger
traffic on the main italian ar
teries leading from the Brenner
Pass to Southern Italy and Sicily
has been completely suspended
to clear the way for troop trains.

The reported movement Of Ger
man troops from the Reich's re-
serve pools to the Mediterranean
Is an indication Of the confidence
with which the Nazi high COM
mand feels It's objectives in the
Soviet Union are being attained.
The Nazis' two principal goals
are to sever the pipe lines which
feed the Red Army with oil, from
the Caucasus and Azerbaidjan,
and to cut Russian communica-
tions with the Allies by way Of
the Caspian Sea.
All other operations which
might be undertaken by the Axis

BY GOULD LINCOLN.

Organized labor will get only
cold comfort from the poor race
which its candidate ran on
Tuesday against Representative
Howard w. Smith in the Demo-
cratic primary in the Eighth Vir-
ginia Congressional District. Mr..
Smith defeated Emmett C. Davi-
son, his CIO-AFL-backed oppo-
nent, by approximately 4 to /.
Mr.. Dawson Is the secretary
treasurer Of the International
Machinists' Union. The Smith
victory by such margin is the
more significant because organ
lied labor, aided and abetted by
some New Deal organs, like PM
In New York, was unable to make
a dent in this Virginia district
which has had an influx of new
residents because OF war activities.
Evening star., 1942-08-06

Inc new DehleTS SUuelI ioul
years ago to purge" Mr.. Smith
because the Administration did
not like him and his stand on
some of the Presidents policies.
At that time William E. Dodd,
ir.. son of former Ambassador
to Germany, was put forward to
defeat Mr.. Smith and was de-
feated to l.
Mr.. Smith, as the author and
sponsor Of bills to amend the
Wagner Labor Relations Act and
to place q curb on strikes in ma
tional defense industries, was a
particular target of organized Ia
Dor this year. 1t is true that the
supporters of Mr.. Dawson sought
to raise the war issue against
Mr.. Smith-but it was a specious
argument.
Emphasis on Labor Demands.
Mr.. Smith had supported all
the major bills for national de-
fense put forward by the Presi-
dent. He baked on one-not be-
cause Of the proposals contained
in the measure, but because at
that time In November, 1941,
strikes by labor unions were i'm
peding the national defense pro-
gram seriously. Mr.. Smith said
he was not going to vote to send
American ships into English
ports-a sure step toward war
until the Administration was
willing to do something effective
to stop strikes in war production
plants. Therefore, even In this
war issue which the anti-Smith
Democrats sought to raise, the
emphasis was on organized labor
and its demands.
is true that most Of the 9th
district in Virginia is rural,
where labor unions are not pop
ular. Nevertheless. In Alexan-
dria and Charlottesville, the dis
trict's two cities and labor cen
tiers, Mr.. Smith ran we'll ahead Of
Mr.. Dawson. The attitude OF
organized labor with It's constant
demands for this and that, and
more particularly its many strikes
before Pearl Harbor-which have
continued despite the promise Of
the top leaders that labor would
abandon the strike during the
war-antagonized = great many
voters not only in Virginia, but
elsewhere.
1t will be interesting to follow
the effect, therefore, on the
campaigns made by labor against
members Of Congress in other
States. 1t has threatened again
and again to take the measure
OF members Of the House who
supported the Smith labor bills.
Labor Candidate Loses.
In another Virginia district, .
labor candidate was put up
against Representative Clifton
A. Woodrum, . leading Demo-
cratic member Of tho House, who
was seeking denomination. Mr..
Woodrum won hands down.
Out in Kansas, Senator Clyde
Reed, who had announced he
would seek to write q Kansas
labor law which would prevent
unions from keeping men from
working in national defense
plants unless they held union
cards and from taking big initia-
ton fees from newcomers into the
nions-was defeated for the

promises and pledges now being dis
regarded. There's only one way to
govern millions OF citizens and that
is by law which applies equally to
all. Plants can be commandeered
by law II an employer doesn't ac-
cept governmental dictation, but a
labor union can interrupt the war
effort and its chiefs can 60 unpun-

national unity than there should be.
