people of the United States to-
day recognize clearly our errors
of omission and commission of
the past, and that they see plain

through cooperation with other
peace-minded powers, when hos
tilities cense, the practical solu-
ton of the greatest problem which

of war can be obliterated from the

''It is a real calamity when

about that There is one thing that
we can do, however, and | hope

vital to the war effort that ques-
tions which concern our relations
with other nations, especially our
allies, be kept out of political cam
paign discussion. Such discussion
can only possibly do injury i'll
stead of good. When we enter into
discussions with another nation
we should present ourselves, not
as partisans, of one party or the
other, but as a whole people, un-
tied in our proposals touching our
relations with other nations. Par
tisanship, especially in war should
end at the waters edge, and we
should confront the rest of the
world united and undivided. The
correctness of such a posture will
be universally admitted. The diff

THEY SAID LAST
WEEK:
President Roosevelt:

"The greatest difficulty in the
food program has been to bring
about n fair and equitable distri-
button of the available food sup
plies. 1t is obvious that there is
not enough to furnish all civilians
with all the food they want. AS |
have said, this is the result. to a
large extent. of the fact that so
many civilians have so much more
money to spend than there are ci-
william supplies of all kinds, in
cluding food. to so around. There
are some who advocate taking
off all restrictions on food because
of the vast food production which
the American farmers have raised.
But with the great excess OF pur-
chasing power now in the pockets
of the American people, the sup
ply would never last. We might
have feast for a few months.
but then there would be a real
shortage - not only for the civil
lians at home but for our own
fighting men and those OF our
allies.
Il am confident that the civili
an population OF the United Sta
tes is ready to give up certain eat
ing habits and accept certain
shortages. They know that they
must, if the war is to be won. \
sharp line will have to be drawn
between the luxuries of life and
the necessities of life. A shortage
in sirloin steaks or in choice fruits
does not mean that the war food
program has failed. In view of the
fact that more food is wanted than
actually exists, it is necessary to
have regulations and rationing
which are sometimes very bur-
densome. But they are the only
way to insure that everybody gets
fair share irrespective of his
economic or social or political
standing"
Major General George v. Strong
Chief of the Army's Military
Intelligence Service:
I'VE have hardly begun to fight
either of our opponents and yet
some people are telling us that the
war is nearly over. Thus far we
have paid a low price in casual
ties compared with the other ar
mics that are engaged in this war
Yet the long casualty lists are
coming. We must be prepared to
pay that price. To insure the ac-
complishment of our war mission
- the decisive defeat Of Germany
and Japan - we must have the
whole-hearted, unselfish, single
minded ezort not only of every
man, woman and child in this
country but also the full utiliza-'
ton of every bit of productive
power, inventive genius and exc
cutive ability that we possess.

Secretary of State:

ly were doomed.
Several panzer and infantry
groups which broke through the
first line of Soviet defenses ran into
murderous fire from the TANKS and
from succeeding lines of artillery
and tanks and were wiped out to
the last man and last machine, Red
Star said.
In the first two days of battle, one
Soviet unit alone crippled 211 tanks
and 46 planes.
Soviet authorities emphasized that
the sagging of the Russian lines near
Belgorod was expected under the
weight of the attack, but said the
situation should not be considered
serious as yet.
On the Orel-Kursk front, one So
Wet. unit was encircled after stop
ping eight consecutive enemy at
tacks. Breaking out of the ring of
German troops, the Russians coun-
er-attacked and won back their old
positions, the Soviet high command
said.
Several groups of German tanks
broke through Russian formations
on other sectors of the Orel-KurSl
front, but the Russians re-sealed
their lines and destroyed every tank,
including more than 40 of the CO.
ton tiger" model.
The Russians also reported the
repulse of several German attacks
on the Kalinin front northwest of
Moscow. Three hundred of the en-
envy were killed, communique said.

er bastions. The enemy has had
plenty of time to prepare due to the
staggering task of transporting men
and equipment to this distant shore
in sufficient quantities.
Yet that was only the beginning
No doubt the enemy beyond the
Mediterranean has now constructed
the most modern mantraps, accum-
ulated the latest killing equipment
and concentrated the best firepower
devisable by the devilish ingenuity
and brains which have peculiar
genius for war and for making war
atrocious.
Nobody here expects it will be any
picnic, any triumphal whirlwind. 1t
will not be another October, 1918,
when the Germans collapsed. Peo-
pie who have such ideas at home are
kidding themselves. tn phrase
"Europe's soft underbelly'' is be-
lieved to be serious misnomer.
Armadas, compared to which the
Spanish Armada was collection of
paper boats sailed by child in a
bathtub, are moving. These ships
are likely to become mere mathe-
NAUTICAL calculations when figured in
terms of tonnages but when seen IN
masses on the Mediterranean they
come alive. They look vital and pur-
poseful, and you know they carry
the hopes of the American and Brit
ish peoples for victory-not in terms
of statistics but in terms of young
men, tanks, ammunition, hospital
apparatus and blood plasma. And OF
weapons, the very names of which
have not yet appeared in news dis
patches.
Many harbors and many cities
with eXoctic names and flaVors, are
scenes of intense activity. Yet there
is no feeling of hullaballoo or con-
fusion. Precision timing seems to
dominate. It's a very business-lik
proceeding only it is bigger than
any business enterprise the world
ever saw.
Practically every male in uniform,
but the uniforms are working

sters resemble football players
trained to the finest physical per-

expect to win, but not without a
fight and they are geared right up
to it whether the attack comes soon
or late. They appreciate that they
are going to have to hit hard when
they do hit. The terrific weight
which was necessary to slug Pantel-
leria into submission may be but
small sample of what is ahead.

CASE OF WHISKEY
EXHIBIT "A TODAY
Accused Men Inform Judge
They Mistook Liquor
for "Anti=Freeze"

An unopened case of Whiskey
featured today's city court session,
as John Pragit 30, of East Liberty
street, and Francis McGrath, At,
South Main street, faced charges of
having taken it from delivery
truck while under the influence of
demon rum last night. Detective
Sergeant Charles McWeeney, who
made the arrest said the pair had
mistaken the liquor for case of
Prestone, and that one of them had
commented, boy I can sure use
that for my car"
The exact contents of the case
came in for discussion this morn
ing when defense Attorney John F.
Tobin asked prosecutor Albert
Hummel if he had examined the
contents of the case. Prosecutor
Hummel said he hadn't. Judge
Summa then asked if he was to I'M
derstand that Attorney Tobin wish
ed to make motion to open the
case. Attorney Tobin said he did
not as a number of Wry smiles were
becoming visible in the courtroom.
Judge Summa fined the pair $40
and costs each on charges of in
toxication, and suspended sentence
on charges of theft after Attorney
Tobin pleaded that the men had
good records and had not realized
that they were stealing because of
their befuddled conditions.

district in the Caribbean area.
Giraud was asked whether he
had visited Martinique while en-
route to Washington from Algiers.
He gestured a vigorous negative.
He contributed the information that
he had had a wonderful jump"
over the ocean.
During Giraud's visit he may be
consulted regarding information in
the possession of the American
government to the effect that fol-
lowers of General Charles DeGaulle,
who shares with Giraud leadership
of the committe of national liberia
ton, were binding members of their
organization to exclusive loyalty to
De Gaulle during and after the war.
The Fighting French organiza-
ton in New York denied the report
as fantastic. Officials here, who
have adopted cautious attitude to-
ward information that De Gaullist
agents pledged themselves to regard
De Gaulle as the sole and legiti-
mate leader of Frenchmen," would
welcome further evidence that the
De Gaulle organization was pre-
pared to put unity ahead of parti-
san ambition in the fight against
the Axis.
Considerable concern has been
expressed regarding De Gaulle's in
tentions as judged by his actions in
London, Syria and North Africa. A
convincing disavowal of any desire
to promote Fascist-type Dictator
ship for himself would be regarded
as real contribution toward the
desired French unity.

Political circles were attempting to-

tvs announcement that it would
support it's former arch-enemy, May
or Frank Hague of Jersey City, and
would work against Hague's prin-
cipal political opponent, Gov. Charles

following comment:
II honor and respect Russia as

would undoubtedly solve a lot of

BY LOUIS F. KEEMLE
United Press War Analyst

American naval bombardment of
Kiska in the Aleutians should be a
disturbing reminder to the japanese
of our mounting naval strength in
the Pacific.
The action came simultaneously
with the engagement far to the
southwest in the Solomons in which
the enemy lost nine to II Warships
at the cost of one U. S. cruiser. The
coincidence may not have been &C
cidental
The Japanese navy, now that our
losses at Pearl Harbor have been
more than made good, is slipping
into an inferior position. The spread
in strength is being widened stead
lily both by the greater proportion
of Japanese losses compared to the
Allies and by constant additions to
the American fleet.
Japan is headed towards the point
if she has not already reached it,

effects of spasmodic strikes and
riots on the war production pro-
gram.
Although the trend toward victory
is with the Allies, he emphasized
that it can be sustained only through
the unremitting effort of the peo-
pie. Cautioning against the dan
gers of overconfidence and easy
optimism, he said, 1--WE know that
our enemies still retain sinister and
menacing power"
He praised teh geenral coopera-
ton of American Labor in the arms
effort and said that great as our
advantages are, we can clearly see
that the hardest part of our job
remains ahead, both for our fight-
ing men and for the producers on
the home 'front.'
Stressing the mutual understand
ing and esteem between the United
States and Canada, Nelson revealed
a startling record of arms produc-
ton established by the twin nations
since the war began. He said the
organized effort of the two coun-
tries has turned out $4,000 planes,
more than 175,0O0 larger caliber
guns of all kinds, nearly 100000
machine guns and 100000 rifles,
about 25, 900 100000 rounds of small
arm ammunition, nearly CO. 900
tanks, 100000 trucks and 10000
scout cars.
In addition, he said, combined
production of ocean-going merchant
vessels has reached 100000 dead
weight tons and naval .vassels, not
including mosquito craft and auxil-
iaries, total more than 100000 dis
placement tons.
These figures speak to the world
in a big voice" he declared. And
if the Nazi and Jap Warlords are
not completely insane, they will
recognize that the voice is the voice
of DOOM
He struck at isolationists by de-
claring that the United States and
Canada have been working out a
formula of wartime cooperation
which he said he liked to think
could be applied to all continents in
peace-time
Certainly we have disproved
many traditional objections to in
ternational cooperation" he said.
Many an ostrich, hearing what
was going on has listed his head
out of the sand. 1t would be tragic
to see those heads go back into the
sands again after the war.
THE United States and Canada
have powerful weapon in their
ability and desire to work together
within the Axis, alliances are
built on a rotting edifice of fear
Beneath that fear crawl the mag
gots of haste and distrust. Agree
ments between the Axis are carved
out with reluctance and suspicion

Growing u. S. Navy
Worrying Japanese
Bombardment of Kiska Only Reminder Say Experts;
Npponese Must Yield Soon to Consolidate Defenses

when her fleet will be entirely in
adequate to cover the vast ocean
area subject to Allied attack.
The American offensive in the
southwest Pacif1s is serious threat
to Japan's strategic position. 1t
ma ytake major fleet concentra-
ton to save Rabaul, key base in the
area northeast of Australia.
At the same time, similar threat
might develop in the north Pacific.
A division of Japuanese fleet
strength between the two could ex-
pose the position in the central Pa
cic, with an American advance
westward from Hawaii towards the
Japanese bulwark of the Marshall
and Caroline Islands. In such sit
uation, the japanese would GER
tainly have no strength ospare for
an Allied assault against Burma and
the Malay Peninsula from the In
dian Ocean.
The Aleutians assume a position
Of prime Importance in this pic
ture. Any Japanese idea as using
them as stepping stones for an Of
fensive has long since been aban-
doned. The Japanese, in fact, ap-
pear unlikely to be able to hold
them as defensive barrier.
The bombardment of Kiska prob
ably is not a prelude to an imme-
diate attempt to take the island
The island already has been nulli-
fled as a useful Japanese base by
the occupation of Attu.
1t can be removed when and II
the time comes for an American
surge towards the northernmost
Japanese islands, including the key
base of Paramushiro.
