UiHa Uoryd Uar Analvst

Wide World War Analyst.
Word from Gen. MacArthurs
headquarters is that the Allied
naval and air forces (mainly
Americana have won a phase of
the Battle of the Coral Sea. and
still are in the mood to attack
the Japanese feet, which appears
to have retired.
We have right to take en-
couragement from this statement,
which may be summarized thus:
The great naval and air battle
of the northeast coast OF Austria
liza has temporarily ceased. -
The enemy has been repulsed.
." His claims of damage in
flicted on our naval forces are
fantastic. Our losses compared
with his own are relatively light.
-" Our attacks will continue"
That carries us just as far as
We are warranted IN going to-
ward a conclusion regarding the
ultimate effect of this engage
ment. It would be foolish to try
to read more between the lines.
and we shall just have to contain
ourselves until we get the details.
We must know how badly We
have hurt the enemy-whether
his withdrawal is tactical or due
to great weakness-what losses
we ourselves have suffered-the
sizes Of the two forces engaged.
Until we received Gen. MacAr-
thurs word that the Japs were
lying about the damage inflicted
on us, and that our losses are
relatively light, we had no way
of judging how the battle went.
The Allies claimed IL Japanese
ships sunk and six badly dam
aged, while the enemy said they
had sunk an American battle
ship, two United States aircraft
carriers, and damaged two other
Allied ships. On the face of 1t
that didn't look too good for
us, because many of the Nip
ponese ships sunk were small
and the loss Of striking power in
a battleship might Offset much
of the damage to the enemy.
However, now that we are assured
the Japs are fictionizing, we feel
better.
Yesterday one noted q good
deal Of uneasiness among the
public because Of these figures
and some rather strong state
ments by Australian officials.
Prime Minister Curtin declared
that invasion is a menace cap

ality.' Former Prime Minister

Jones Seeks Five Billions
For R.F.C. War Program

By the Associated Press.
Secretary of Commerce Jones
asked Congress yesterday to give
5000, ,000 1000 Of additional borrow
ing authority to the Reconstruction
Finance Corp. so that it might carry
on a vast program of war plant ex-
pansion, purchase of vital materials
and the financing of many other
war activities
Testifying before a Senate Bank
ing Subcommittee, Secretary Jones
said that among other things the
new funds would be needed to
finance an aluminium plant expan-
sion program, which he said would
result in an annual capacity Of
2 100 900, 900 pounds of the metal by
early 1913.
1T looks as if We were going to
have ample aluminium" the lending
chief asserted.
Production, he said, already has
reached a rate of 1000 900 900
pounds annually compared with
300 200, 900 pounds two years ago
and $4,000, 900 pounds last year.
Secretary Jones told the commit
tee that commitments by the R. F.
C. and its subsidiaries in the war
time lending and spending program
now totaled $4,000, 900 900, of which
s576 100000 had been Cancelled for
various reasons and s565 ,00o, 900 re-
paid.

Coral Sea Battle Cost
Ship Losses Of Allies, Jops to Determine
How Bodily Enemy Hos Been Hurt

the ramparts, then, Australians,
and brace yourselves for the great
struggle that looms darkly ahead"
Personally, I took Mr.. Curtins
statement as being for home con-
sumption to put people on their
toes. and as for Billy Hughes.
whom knew we'll as far back as
the First World War days, he has
a penchant for strident language
and more often than not may be
found admonishing somebody or
other to dash to the ramparts.
However, the American public has
to take these things at face value
and some commentators even ex-
tracted gloom from these state
ments.
As l pointed out in yesterdays
column, 1t Is likely that the jap
anese have been aiming at cut
ting the American lines of COM
munication with Australia and
thus neutralizing the value OF
this great and growing base
which looms as a great menace
to Nippon and her ill-gotten
conquests. If we are in process
of inf1icting a heavy defeat on
the Japs in the battle of the
Coral Sea then the threat to our
communications will be relieved,
the Australians will have far less
cause to fear invasion and the
striking power of the American
base In Australia will increase
rapidly until we have reached
that happy day when we can
launch a full-blown offensive.
That offensive, by the way.
would come a great deal sooner
as the result of a naval disaster
to the Japanese in the present
engagement.
Then there is another import
ant point which We mustn't over
look The japanese have had
numerical naval superiority in
the Pacific. Thus If they should
manage to inf1ict heavy losses on
us in the Coral Sea battle, they
might be able to claim an imme-
diate advantage even though
their own losses were larger. That
is to say, any serious lessening
of our naval striking power
might enable the Japs to embark
on fresh projects.
The fly In the ointment for
Japan, however, is that despite
any immediate success they will
be beaten in the long run because
Of our superior resources and IA
cilities for production. Japan
cannot build ships, either naval
or cargo. at the rate at which
they have been sunk since the
war started. Sooner or later
they must crack up.

Senator Mead. Mr.. Farley has
told friends emphaticaIly that
he did not desire a nomination
and would not have one. It is
considered entirely likely, how
ever, that he would accept the
nomination Of Senator Mead If
that seems the best way out.
He would not, If is said, look with
favor on the nomination of Owen
D. Young.
At the present stage Of the
game, Mr.. Young's nomination Is
something that every one would
like to see, but no one expects"
quoting Democratic leader
here. 1t is generally agreed that
Mr.. Young is man of high char
acter and ability. He has not
held political office, however, al
though he has rendered public
SCI VICE OoIfl III Ills country ana
abroad The politicos are leery.
They do not know what he might
turn out to be If placed in the
Governors chair.
1t was recalled today that when
the name of Wendell L. Willkie
was put forward for the Republi-
can presidential nomination, it
was generally said that a Willkie
nomination, because of his ability
and high standing, would be an
excellent thing, but that 1t could
not be brought about. Mr.. Will
kie. however, was nominated
when the time came. This might
happen in the case of Mr.. Young,
provided Mr.. Young would be
willing to enter a contest as was
Mr.. Willkie. And then it was
recalled that Mr.. Willkie, al
though he received the nomina
ton, was defeated at the polls.

The Political Mill
Observers Look to Senotor Mead to Wind Up
With New York GubernotorioI Nomination

ident Roosevelt for a third term
nomination. Mr.. Farley, how
ever. remains a power to be reck-
oned with in New York politics.
Many of the Democratic county
chairmen are his selections and
his friends. Nearly all of them
are Irish. The nomination of a
New York Governor is made in
party convention. not in a pri-
mary election, and the organiza-
ton has a great say in the mat
ter.
On the other hand, Edward
J. Flynn, Democratic national
chairman and boss" of the
Bronx, is likely to line up with
the White House although he
did not in the mayoralty cam
paign last fall, when he supported
District Attorney ODwyer of
Brooklyn, the regular Democratic
nominee, against Mayor La Guar
dia, who had the nod from the
President.
Mr.. Flynn has just been exon
Grated by a grand jury in the
Bronx, which considered the case
of the Belgian blocks. city owned,
which were used to improve the
country estate of Mr. Flynn and
were laid by city labor. In some
quarters it has been asserted that
Mr.. Flynn would have to give
up his job as national chairman
as result of the incident of the
Belgian blocks. He insists, how
ever, he has no intention of get
ting out-and has so insisted
from the first.
Seeds of Intra Party War.
There are other Democratic
leaders, among them the new
head of Tammany, Michael J.
Kennedy, who would go along
with the White House, it is
claimed. Anyway you look at it.
however, there are seeds which
might develop into a first-class
intra- party war before this Dem
ocratic nomination Is finally
made.
Mr., Farley has been suggested
as a gubernatorial nominee by
