left his lines of communication
completely unprotected, released
the prisoners he had captured be-
cause they required a force to
guard them and rushed every
thing into his one gigantic
gamble. He even used Italians
as combat troops.
Marshal Rommels opponent,
1t. Gen. Neil M. Ritchie, was able
to report optimistically to Cairo
and London merely because he
figured he had enough force to
oppose anything Marshal Rom
mel would throw into battle.
But he reckoned that Marshal
Rommel would have to leave a
sizable force behind to protect
his lines of supply. The text
books of strategy provided for
that and 1t was inconceivable
that Marshal Rommel would de-
part to such an extent from
orthodox teachings.
Valuable Equipment Lost.
The British 9th Army has not
been annihilated, though 1t has
lost much of It's valuable equip
ment. This loss Is particularly
felt because 1t has to come thou
sands Of miles. 1t is also logical
to assume that the morale of the
men in the defeated army is now
shaken, and that it will take
some time to reorganize the vari-
Gus units and get the troops in
fighting trim again.

Roosevelt Churchill PorJey Seen as Attempting
Compromise on Russion and British War Theories

Now, Mr.. Molotov may have
been told that the British could
make no other decision without
the Americans, and so Mr.. Molo-
tov came to Washington. Here
the atmosphere was, perhaps,
different. The United States is
not so Immediately and gravely
involved, and the offensive spirit,
in military circles at least, is
apparently stronger, judging by
the statements made in London
by Gems. Marshall and Arnold.
The Americans think more
coolly about the Russians than
the British, and have never tend
ed to overestimate the Russian
position.
So Mr.. Molotov may have sug-
gested, with note of.insistence,
that the President and Mr..
Churchill get together and con-
slider together "the urgent tasks
Of opening a second front in Eu-
rope in 1912"
And therefore what Is being
debated now in Washington is
the Russian theory versus the
British theory.
The Russians, OF course, are
chiefly concerned with the re-
lieving of their own situation,
which is, however, of primary i'm
portance for the whole war. But
there is another situation that
has to be relieved that is Of pri-
mary Importance to America and
Britain The Battle of the Allan
tic-the mitigation of the ship
ping losses
Slip Losses High.
Up to now we have been on the
defensive-trying to fight of or
circumnavigate submarines. We
have not been very successful.
Our rate Of loss for months has
been faster than our rate Of
building in spite of the fact that
we are getting through all our
main conveys.
And this creates a vicious
cirolo. Tor u,o che II ,,ayor 1ot e,,f
ficient shipping for a huge blitz
if We are losing faster than we
build. Perhaps this also creates
a need for an offensive spirit;
maybe the surest way to giving
us shipping advantage would be
to strike straight out at the enc
my submarine bases on the At
lantic coast.
So this suggests to me. and
am no military strategist, that q
compromise might be reached be-
tween the Russian theory Of
warning continually with the
Germans until they are worn
out, and the British, of conserv-
ing all forces for a single knock
out blow, by blitz strategy.
That compromise might be to
defer the opening of a major
second front until the shipping
situation is improved, but to
improve the shipping situation
and relieve the Russians by some
new uper-commando raids on
a size and scale that have not
so far been employed.
Political Considerations.
That would give Hitler the
problem that Napoleon feared
above everything. without seri-
ously depicting the vast blitz
army on the British Isles.
But political considerations
may be playing role with
the British. Such commandos
might fulfill their purpose even
if only partly successful. They
would still keep Hitler running
around and guessing. But
Mr.. Churchill, since Dunkerque,
Crete. Greece and Singapore, is
terribly afraid of anything that
is not wholly successful. So per-
haps, II We are to do this. the
Americans must take the chief
responsibility for 1t.
I think this might be all right
with us. There is no victory
without risk, particularly in this
war.

When the distributors decided

tested it would cost the jobs of
