The press releases from the prop
aganda department In Paris
spoke Of an army of between
$4,000 and 10000 In the Levant.
In fact, the heterogeneous force
which Gen. Weygand command
ed-unequipped and lacking avia-
tion-never exceeded 10000 men.
as 1t was shown ut the end Of
Frances war.
Gen. Weygand was called TO
save France from Q hopeless
military situation . few weeks
before her collapse. when the
greatest military genius could
not have remedied the situation.
The uneasiness which exists In
many responsible quarters In
washington finds its expression
in the increased hope that Gen.
MacArthur-unlike Gen. Wey-
gand-wiu be called to command

Evening star., 1942-03-10

the Japanese siege Of Bataan are
about in 10000.
The Philippines have now be-
come . symbol Of the tenacity.
resourcefulness and heroism Of
American and Filipino fighting
men and the fight they have put
up has proved beyond cavil what
q determined and able COM
mander can do with a handful
of men.
Military Role Is Ended.
In spite Of the brilliant defense
OF Bataan and Corregidor 1t is
unanimously believed in military
quarters that as soon as the
japanese determine TO throw
their whole Philippine force
against Gen. Douglas MacAr-
thurs army they will succeed in
terminating its resistance and
the nag Of the Rising Sun will
float over the entire island Of
Luzon.
As long as hope was still held
that Singapore, the Netherlands
and Burma could hold out
against the Japanese the per-
formance Of Gen. MacArthur's
army was extremely useful to
the military purposes Of the
United Nations.
With the fall-or impending
fall-of all these territories, the
military role of the American
Filipino Army Is ended. 1t will
continue to write epic pages in
American history, but it can do
nothing else. If by some posi-
bility We could bring back these
men, there is no doubt that the
administration In Washington
would attempt to do 20. That,
however, is out OF the question.
Proved His Mettle.
Gen. Macarthur has completed
his task from the moral and stra-
tegic points Of view. He has tied
up between 10 and IL Jap divi-
sions which might have been used
elsewhere and he has shown that
Q handful Of Americans under
proper American leadership can
perform miracles.
From everywhere-Russia, Brit
ain and the United States-come

States IL in serious danger Of 50
dividing its men and equipment as
to prevent our own forces from
playing an effective part. without
aiding our Allies sufficiently to turn
the tide in their favor. Some men,
bers Of Congress say there are many
in the Army and Navy high COM
mand who, In private, complain
bitterly against what they term the
prevailing policy OF scatter"
1t is recalled In this connection
that Gen. John J. PerShing, during
World War I, never wavered in his
insistence that American troops not
be sent into the fighting until their
numbers and material equipment
were SUFFICIENT to take over . front
Of their own. Even when the Brit
ish and French Armies appeared
on the verge of defeat in the spring
Of 1918, Pershing refused to con-
sent to brigading American soldiers
with them.
There Is Q great difference. say
these members of Congress. between
sending merely materials to bolster
forlorn hopes, as was done In the
belated attempts to save Yugoslavia
and Greece, and the sending Of pitt
fully small numbers of men to share
defeats, as happened in the Dutch
Indies and Burma.
See Change With War.
Lease lend, in the congressional
viewpoint at least. was primarily de-
signed to sacrifice property to save
American lives. 1t was = political
device conceived in the hope that If
We supplied enough airplanes. tanks
and dollars, the war could be won
without our direct participation
The trouble Is that the United
States, itself suddenly plunged into
war on December 7, was caught up
to its neck In promises.
The immediate demand was for
airplanes, ships and men to replace
losses at Pearl Harbor and render
safe our other vital outposts of
Panam and Alaska. But this pre-
vented dispatch Of reinforcements

and the British and Dutch In the
Southwest Pacific.
Dutch Fail to Get Planes.
Dutch representatives here par
ticularly have laid the loss Of Java
to their failure to obtain December
and January delivery Of planes
which they had bought and paid for
in cash.
The United States did send a few
bombers to Java on their own pow
er and, at the last, . token force
Of troops. A dispatch from Mel
bourne Friday related that Ameri-
can bombers had fed Java to Aus
tralia after protecting fighter planes
had been put out of action. Yester-
day 1t was announced from London
that, Of q total Of $4,000 surrendered
to the Japanese in the Dutch Indies,
only 5000 were American, British
and Australian.
For nearly q year the United States
has been sending airplanes, tanks
and other equipment to Egypt, but
this did not prove enough to pre-
vent the recent resurgence Of Gen.
Erwin Rommel's German Italian
Army. Other small American forces
are in Iran, Ireland, Greenland and
Iceland and week end dispatches
declared that large numbers OF air.
men and troops are being sent to
Australia.
Meanwhile the delivery Of Amer
lean supplies promised to Russia Is
reported tagging and other supplies
cached at Rangoon for shipment to
China by way of the Burma road
may have fallen into the hands OF
the Japanese.
Excused on Two Grounds.
Administration spokesmen excuse
this state Of affairs on two grounds.
First, they say, long time must
elapse before American forces can
be concentrated at any one of the
fighting fronts sufficient to pay a
major role and the war will not
wait for them.
Second, much stress is laid on the
scarcity Of shipping and the great
distances involved. Where we have
fallen down on promises. 1t is con-
tended, the reason Is not 50 much
lack Of materials or men as Of ships
Critics answer that the Japanese
also are hampered by distance. 1t
Is 5000 miles from Japan to Singa-
pore and 5000 miles from Japan to
Australia. The essential difference
Il that the Japanese had their
Southwest Pacific plans ready in
advance and they have concentrated
all possible forces In that area at
great risk to themselves. The time
has come. 1t Is argued. when the
United States must similarly con-
centrate its efforts somewhere and
assume the same sort Of risks

increasing appeals for an Often
sive somewhere.
Gen. Macarthur has shown TO
the world that he has all the re-
quired qualities to head the
forces which will take the onen-
sive.
The menaced Australians cries

consensus Of military experts in
Britain that he Is the outstand-
ing general Of the war indicate
how the defender Of the Philip
pines Is rated with the soldiers
OF the United Nations.
Considered Logical Man.
The arguments, plausible as
they may have been q few weeks
ago. that Gen. MacArthur's de-
parture from Bataan might be
interpreted by his men as de-
sertion from his post, no longer
hold. From various reports re-
ceived from the Philippines
reports which get no publicity
because they are not "news"-it
appears that the men themselves
believe he should be somewhere
else. leading us to victory.
Gen. Macarthur Is considered
to be the logical man to COM
mand the forces Of the United
Nations since the excellent Brit
ish general, Sir Archibald P.
Wavell, has proved 50 unlucky.

international war and domestic
politics, like oil and water, make
q poor mixture. Yet politics, in
this democracy, cannot be en-
tirely laid aside. Unfortunately
political strife threaten the war
effort today. Unless q halt Is
called in some directions, at least,
the mess will grow worse, not bet
ter. 1t seems quite clear that the
New Dealers are intent upon
holding all the strings and all the
places of power, when the
greatest ability alone should
govern.
President Roosevelt has moved,
now and again, to get away from
the solid New Deal front and
toward one Of greater unity. He
has placed two Republicans in
key positions in his cabinet, the
Secretary Of War and the Secre-
tary Of the Navy. He permitted
Secretary Stimson to select his
own Undersecretary of War. He
has sent a former Republican
Secretary Of War, Pat Hurley, to
New Zealand as American Min
lister and observer. He is reported
to have sought to send Wendell
L. Willkie to Australia to bolster
the unity of action between this
country and the people Of that
continent in the war against
Japan. A Job which Mr.. Willkie
for reasons OF his own, declined.
Cunning for Cabinet Officers.
But the dyed-in-the-wool New
Dealers who surround the Presi-
dent-some Of them-have dif-
ferent ideas. They have even
been cunning for members OF
the Presidents cabinet-includ-
ing Secretary Of State Hull and
Secretary of Commerce Jesse
Jones. as well rs Secretary Stim-
son and Secretary Knox. They
have raised the cry that these
gentlemen are too old for their
present responsible positions, or
inefficient, or both. Several
years ago the same cry was
raised against the then members
of the Supreme Court Of the
United States-old men, they
were dubbed. The President
himself joined in that cry. Now,
however, the New Dealers are de-
claring for . youth movement
in the cabinet.
The President, 20 far. Is stand
ing pat. He has no present in
tention Of making changes In his
cabinet. The New Dealers have
a strange ally in their attack on
Secretary Stimson and Secretary
Knox-Col. Mccormick, publish
er Of the Chicago Tribune, one OF
the most bitter critics Of the
presidents domestic. as well as
his foreign policy. A proposal
was put forward that the Presi-
dent appoint Representative
James w. Wadsworth Of New
York. a Republican, too, in place
OF Secretary Stimson, on the
ground that Mr.. Stimson was too
old for the arduous Job Of Secre-
tary. This, 1t said, is an oblique
attack on the position Of Secre-
tary Knox. If Mr.. Stimson could
be dislodged, then it would be
easier to attack the Secretary Of
the Navy, who happens to be
publisher Of the Chicago Daily
News. No love Is lost between
Col. Mccormick and Col. Knox.
Campaign May Bring Changes.
A political campaign-with q
new House of Representatives to
be elected-is approaching fast.
What will be the attitude Of the
Chief Executive to cabinet
changes under this impact, par
ticularly II the war news con-
tinues no better, can only be .
matter Of conjecture. The force

have its effect. A suggestion has
been advanced that Secretary
Stimson may himself resign. At
present, however, 1t Is reliably
reported that Secretary stimson
has no thought Of stepping out
Of ONCE.
The Republicans are watching
every move made by the New
Dealers. II . purge" Is attempt
ed OF all members Of Congress
who did not 60 along with the
President in his foreign, as we'll

1t. They would hail 1t as evidence
that this war is to be conducted
as a New Deal war, run entirely
by New Dealers. That, they be-
lieve would have . bad reaction
among the voters.
The Republicans, however, are
casting around for other issues.
They are likely to make Govern
ment expenditures one OF the
main points OF attack. This does
not mean they will oppose the
huge appropriations made for the
war. They will attack, however.
expenditures where they believe
it can be shown that they are not
essential to the war. They will
undertake to show that money
has been wastefully expended,
too.
This issue OF Government ex-
penditures has been raised by
the G. o. p. In several recent
campaigns-but with Indifferent
success. The situation today,
however, more nearly meets their
purpose. The voters are taxed
heavily. They are demanding
that they be shown something
for their money. If the adminis-
tration can produce some major
victories IN the war in the next
few monthtthe issue of ex-
penditures will not get far.
Sacrifices Come Hard.
For years the American voters
In large numbers have been on
the receiving end Of Government
expenditures-through all kinds
OF subsidies. They have been
asked to change almost over
night and make sacrifices. In
dividually, many of them are
making sacrifices although they
do not relish them. Collectively
and in special groups, they are
resisting, as In the case of labor
and the farmers.
The activity Of the New Dealers
Is not directed Against Repub-
lican members Of Congress alone.
They intend to ditch Is many OF
the so-called conservative Demo-
Gratis as they can-through pr1-
mary elections. They would like
to get rid, too, OF as many Of tho
Democratic tsolationists as they
are able. The left wingers are
trying now TO throw discredit
upon Representative Martin Dies
Of Texas. who heads the Com
mittee on Un- American Activities.
Representative Eliot OF Massa-
chuSetts. New Deal Democrat,
and Representative Marcantonio,
American Labor, have both
