Why Ship Ford Tire Machinery?

IT HE Times properly asks if this deci-
i sion is WISE.
1t raises no question of the wisdom OF
maximum aid to Russia.
But it earnestly and anxiously suggests
that policy of sending irreplaceable ma
chinery to Russia and risking its loss,
when the products of that machinery
could just as we'll be sent, is open to seri-
Gus question.
If not in the interest of ourselves, then
surely in the interest of the Russians we
hope to aid, this questionable decision
should be reconsidered.
American industrial machinery is the
best in the world.
1t is most efficiently operated in
America
1t is most usefully utilized in America.
Surely it is not in our interest to dis
mantle it and ship it abroad and risk it in
one of the most hazardous zones of the
war. And since it is not even in Russias
best interest WHY is 1T DONE?

The North African Victory

because the already important victory is
ours, and a final and complete victory
achieved there by our forces would be
most welcome
One reason American expectations in
North Africa are high is that American
forces and materials have had telling
and probably decisive part in the
fighting.
American-and also Canadian and
Australian - forces have been heavily
engaged.
American military aviation has played
an especially vital role.
American tanks and munitions have
given essential weight to the offensive.
Thus is history repeated. In 1917, the
kaiser made the error-fatal to him-of
supposing American production and man.
power could not be brought to bear effec-
lively against him. Now Hitler has
repeated that historic error, as we are
beginning to see-and as well he knows.

PROPORTIONS of the victory in North
i Africa are bearing out the optimistic
claims of the Allied commanders, and are
measuring up to the hopeful expectation
of the Allied nations.
1t is timely and encouraging victory,
a very considerable victory-and, in fact,
the FIRST great Allied victory of the war.
Of course it will not decide the war or
even turn the tide of the war, unless the
enemy is indeed driven entirely out of
North Africa, and reduced in the course of
that accomplishment to incapacity for
effective fighting elsewhere.
The Allied forces and their enemies in
North Africa have been pushing each
other back and forth across the desert
sweeps for several years, neither being
able TO sustain an offensive, and both being
able to erect durable defenses.
This may be the exception, and it is
most earnestly hoped that it will be-
