HOWEVER, f0lfIlment Of his optimism con-
l corning the outcome Of the war is not a mat
ter regarding which the peoples of the allied
nations, especially the American and British
peoples, need reinsurance in words.
II is' elimination Of the substantial causes
for his pessimism which concerns us all. Mr.
Churchill himself has said, il is not question
IF We will win the war bat simply WHEN
and he might have added HOW and WHERE
He further said, however. that with good
management We viii win The war SOONER than
with bad managcmcnt-a truthful if not over
brilliant statement.
THEREFORE, FOR THE FURTHER CON
DUCT OF THE WAR. IT Is 4 BETTER EN-
AMPLE OF GOOD MANAGEMENT BY BOTH
ENGLAND AND AMERICA WHICH Is Be
SPOKEN MUCH BETTER THAN THE
THOROUGHLY BAD MANAGEMENT WHICH
HAS THUS FAR ATTENDED THE WAR N
THE PACIFIC AND THE INADEQU ATE

MR.. CHURCHILI'S most recent statement to

optimistic regarding the outcome and peSslmlsuc

inc events.

are in three parts.

which the Russians seem To have perfectly well

The second is in North Africa which has

THERE Is NO QUESTION OF REGARD
ING THE .PACIFIC. WAR AS A SECONDARY
OPERATION" he said.
This Is uumcntoUS.
Il represents distinct departure from
previous attitudes.
Great Britain MUST have expected to con-
duct a SECONDARY operation in the Pacific,
BECAUSE NEITHER MAJOR NOR ABE
-QTATE- FORCES WERE CONCENTRATED
IN THE PACIFIC.
The British army is almost entirely mobi-
lized-really IMMOBILIZED-IN THE BRIT
ISL ISLES.
The British air force is principally atten-
tive to the same area.
The British navy is largely concerned with
the same problem.
Thus. a purely defensive position was sue

conditioned, however, on the false premise that

high American authorities on the basis of the
same premise.
America began the war with it's navy dis
persed in two oceans. and with its military avia-
ton being Systematically diffused into variety
of war zones remote from the Pacifc-including
the British Isles, Libya and Russia.
All this conformed to a carefully calculated
strategy-a British strategy.
Secretary Knox disclosed the strategical pat
tern by .cautioning the American people not to
expect major action in the Pacific until CON-
TINTING MATTERS ELSEWHERE HAD
BEEN LIQUIDATED-a ridiculous proposition.
What upset this myopic strategy was THE
SUBSEQUENT AND IMMEDIATE FAILURE
OF 4 SECONDARY OPERATION TO HOLD
AND CONTAIN THE ENSUING MAJOR OP-
GRAFTON LAUNCHED By THE JAPANESE.
OF COURSE if the overwhelming forces of
~ japan had been turned back, the insufficient
forces disposed for that purpose would have been

But the japanese naturally were NOT
turned back, and Hongkong fell the Philippines
and Malaga were largely oveITUn. the Dutch
Indies were put under heavy attack and even
Australia was menaced.
So the Pacific war quickly became a major
operation. and Mr.. Churchill is COMPELLED

He frankly granted recognition Of the Situa-

CROP LAND is

"a Per Cent in Delaware Be-
ing Titled by Farmers i'm
Conservation Program
HIGH YIELD SOUGHT

About "a per cent of the crop
land in Delaware is being titled by
farmers who are taking part in the
1912 Agricultural Conservation
Program, according to c. E. Ochel-
tree, chairman of the State Agri-
cultural Adjustment Agency COM
mittee. On this farm land farm
ers have adopted the Recommended
lions of the Delaware Agricultural
Extension Service and followed the
soiI-building practices of the con-
servation program. These practic-
es have included the use of winter
legumes and grasses, use of green
manure and cover crops and appli-
cation of lime and phosphate.
High production yields cannot be
over-emphasized during this i'm
portant agricultural year." says
Ocheltree. Every acre of the bet
ter cropland must produce its max
imum capacity in order for our
farmers to contribute their part to
this nations war effort" Under
the Agricultural Conservation Pro-
gram last year Delaware farmers
increased the use of limestone in
the production of legume crops
which have been turned under to
enrich the soil with nitrogen and
humus. Probable shortages of til
trogen fertilizers may be met by
continuing this important soil
building practice. Delaware farm
ers are urged to practice conserva-
ton measures while producing the
larger quantities of food for free
dom. Conservation farming will
not only mean increased produc-
ton, but it will also make it posi-
BILE to sustain increased production
by protecting the fertility of Della
ware farms.

So that if Miss Oberon reads the

will be answered. For there Doro-

TELLS USE OF sAOCHARINE
NutritiOnist Does Not Recommend
1t For Canning


Many homemakers have asked
for information on the use of sac
charine as a substitute for sugar in
canning fruit. Miss Pearl Mac
Donald, nutritionist for the Della
ware Agricultural Extension Ser
vice, points out that saccharine is
a coal tar product which is from
300 to $50 times sweeter than
sugar. 1t has no food value what
ever and develops bitter taste
when cooked. Accordingly, if it is
added to fruit when canned, this
bitter bavor will develop in the pro-
cess of sterilization. If home
maker plans to use saccharine,
fruit should be canned without
sweetening and saccharine should
be added when the fruit is opened
for serving Saccharine is more
commonly used in beverages such
as tea and coffee and it is not an

Security Provisions
 For Men In Service
American Association to Support Legislation Aiding
 Soldiers, Sailors, Surviving Kin; Prominent Names

Social security provisions for the armed forces of the United States and for soldiers survivors were urged yesterday by the American Association for Social Security, which laid down its program for future security legislation following the recent death of Abraham Ep- secretary for fifteen years. The as- sociation named an administrative committee of five to direct its &C., tivities and the editorial policy of its publications. The board of di- rectors appointed Miss Adele Bloom, who has been associated with the organization for 12 years $ acting executive secretary. Miss Bloom will work under the direction of the administrative committee.
 Prominent Members
 The administrative committee consists of Bishop Francis J. Mo- Connell of the Methodist church president of the association, E Wight Bake of Yale university, J Douglas Brown of Princeton uni versity, Herman A. Gray of New York university, and Gerald Mor- gan. Bishop Mcconnell heads the committee.
 "The nation must recognize its clear responsibility" the statement of the association declared, ito pro- tect those who are disabled in the armed forces and their dependents, as well as the survivors of war vic- tims. The association will seek the extension of the benefits of the old age and survivors insurance system to war victims and their depend ents, the costs to be assessed against the federal government"
 The extension and improvement of social security were urged as a means of strengthening the war ef- fort and national morale and also of meeting the health inadequacies revealed by the draft. War condi- tions, it was assertde, have made the establishment of health insur- ance and provisions against per- manent disability "a pressing prob lem before the country"
