THIS SECOND FRONT BUSINESS

The second front in this war has
come to be a kind of symbol of the
whole question Of united front for
the United Nations, for unified com
mand, for integrated and co-ordinated
action in a common strategy against
common enemy. 1t has also come
to symbolic those policies and strate-
gies that make for short war and a
decisive victory as against long war
and an inconclusive peace.
In this light Mr. Wilkes recent
statement on the matter and the con-
troversy that that statement evoked
in England and in this country is sig
nificant in Illuminating our PROPOSE
tion as cited above. 1t indicates that
the question of opening a second front
NOW has become a kind of acid test
to separate in sharp outline those who
follow defensive, appeasement pol
icy, and those who strive by all means
possible for an offensive, hard-hitting,
about war under unified strategy
and unified command with the global
concept of the war always in mind.
Under this concept it is incompre-
hensible that there should have been
complete understanding" reached
last July, as reported by the press, be-
tween the United States and England
as to the near future conduct of the
war on the allied side How could
there be COMPLETE understanding
when China and Russia did not sit
in on the policy and Safeguarding
deliberations. Or is that half of the
allied force to do the fighting while
the other half does the planning and
the policy making? That is the kind
of division that Hitler had gambled on
when he attacked the Soviet Union.
When we follow that line we are play
ing Hitler's game and giving him the
victory.
Under the concept of a global war
and United Nations strategy it is ri
dicuious to speak of opening a sec
ond front to aid Russia, heavy as that
obligation is on a purely fair play
basis. We need to open a second
front to defeat Hitler and win vic
tory The choice no longer lies with
US. That is the only alternative to-
lays situation of the global war has

cd. A diamond was opened and
West won with the ace. The
bidding had indicated to West
that the declarer must hold sew
en- solid clubs and a singleton
heart. West thought from North s
strong bidding, he would be
more likely to hold the ace and
queen of spades than the ace OF
hearts - in which case, if a
spade were returned, declarer
could cash seven clubs, three
diamonds and two spades. So
West returned heart, hoping
TO find his partner with the
ace - and now the hand was a
spread for a slam.

THE GIRL IN THE CASE

At LaGuardia airport in New
York, a cable caught up with
Clyde Dawson just as he was
boarding an evening plane for
Chicago. 1t was from the chief

The flight to Chicago was a

you, as his most loyal historian,

the girls picture from his pock-

Ten minutes later Dawson
was in a taxi bound for Home
