into the confidence of it's leaders is
having results. We seem to be get
ting a more frank report on what is
going on in the Solomons. That
news may not be good, but the mere
indication there is a growing ten
dency to lift the veil of secrecy and
tell us what is happening is encour-

No one expects that war of the
magnitude in which the United States
is now engaged can or will be con-
Quoted without mistakes. But if
these mistakes are acknowledged and
the blame placed where it belongs,
there is hope that benefits may &C
crue from such airing in that future
similar pitfalls may be avoided. Such
frankness will dispell a steadily
growing tendency to suspicion that
censorship restrictions are being used
in a manner never intended; sup
preston of facts not because their
publication would aid or benefit the
enemy, but because there is a fear
such knowledge would result in JUS
titled criticism of the manner in which
the war is being conducted, or at least

tons and to stave off further
Japanese landing attempts on
Guadalcanal.
Surely, there have been losses
heavy losses at that-for the United
States forces, men, ships, airplanes,
and so on, but it is officially avowed
that the enemy losses have been
much greater, and the very fact that
the Japanese now are unable to make
any further move-at least for the
time being-in and about the Solo
mons is in itself a certain indi-
cation that they have been seriously
weakened.
New Guinea.
While Tokyo can find little COM
fort in the Solomons situation, there
is still less to be found on the island
of New Guinea.
For here they have been driven
from position to position and
have even lost the town of Ko-
kOda, midway between Buna i'm
the north and Port Moresby in
the south.
This seems to mean that the enc
my will have to abandon all hope
of ever crossing to Australia-quite
particularly if it is true that Amer
lean forces, as rumored, have landed
in the southern part of the island.
In that case, the japanese are likely
to be squeezed to destruction from
both north and south.
Denmark Situation.
The japanese government has eS-
tablished a separate administration
for its occupied countries, very much
like that of Hitler in the European
lands which he has stolen.
A few days ago-to mention
merely one example of the Hit
lerian New Order i'm occupied
territOry-he sent to Denmark
as a new minister DIR. Werner
Best, friend and pupil of the
murdered Nazi Hangman Hey
drich. This bodies no good for
Denmark.
Ominous, too, is the rumor-not
yet confirmed-that the Danish gov
eminent is to be reorganized with
Foreign Minister Erik Scavenius as
its head. If this turns out to be the
case it will mean that Hitler most
likely will obtain that closer ''co-
operation" with the stubborn Danes
that he has been urging for such a
long time.
And the news that Scavenius has
been spending a few days in Berlin
is no sweet music in the ears of Nazi-
hating Danes.
