THE land fighting which remains to be
L done will necessarily involve what we
have come to speak Of AS Jungle warfare
battle in thick, hot, dripping underground,
where fighting forces see little of one another,
and where combat becomes ndvidual-man to
man and hand to hand.
The Japanese army was given long and
carefully studied training for this type of
warfare. 1t appears that the Japanese, after
occupying the large island of Hainan, off the
extreme southern point Of China, used this
admirable situation for their purposes, both to
concentrate the forces designated for the
conquest of Malaysia, and for training these
forces thoroughly and cleverly in the tactics
Of jungle fighting.
Their success was not only a terrific sur
prise to us, and to other Allied nations, but
momentarily 1t seemed to fill us with dismay
at the sudden appearance of an enemy highly
skilled in a type of warfare in which we had
not believed him to be proficient.
Nov, personally, do not believe that the
~ Japanese are natural jungle fighters.
Their own country to which they are accus-
toned is densely populated and under high
state of cultivation. Even the mountains are
terraced and utilized.
l have reason to believe tina. the japanese
do not like the jungle. They dread it. They
detest it. And they would fail in it except
as they have been prepared by careful in
struction and strong discipline to overcome
its difficulties and make full use of its
character.
The Fiipinos have far greater familiarity
with the forest the jungle and the wild noun
tains. And so far as l can estimate fighting
in Bataan, the Filipinos outfought the Japa-
nese, although the line Of combat between
them was frequently not jungle but open
fields of rice and sugar cane.

Naval Research Work
Insured j. :. Safety,
Says Capt. Catch

Scientists, technicians and en-
ployes of the United States Naval
Research Laboratory at Bellevue
D. c., have produced new weapons
that have inflicted serious damage
on the enemy, Undersecretary Of the
Navy James v. Forrestal told q dis
tinguished gathering yesterday at a
celebration marking the goth ami
versary of the founding of the
laboratory.
Other speakers included Charles
F. Kettering of the General Motors
Corp. and Capt. Thomas L. Catch,
U. s. NJ, commander Of battleship.
who had an opportunity to observe
the use Of radar in action.
Radar, the ears and eyes OF the
fleet, was born at the Bellevue in
stitution
The assemblage also heard read q
message from former Secretary Of
the Navy Josephus Daniels, whose
efforts were responsible for the
establishment of the Institution.
Tell of Radar's Aid.
Mr.. Forrestal said the current
struggle is full of dramatic instances
which have pointed up In sharp
outline how vitally necessary con-
tinuous research Is to the safety of
the Nation. He explained how radar
permitted the battle task force to
cripple the japanese fleet sent to re-
take Guadalcanal Island, when the
Americans were holding 1t by a very
slender margin 1t also played big
part in the Aleutian operations, he
said, as we'll as the African invasion.
Capt. Catch said the most vital
developments of the laboratory have
never been heard of by the public,
and added that 1t would be impos-
sible to say how many American
lives have been saved directly by the
work that has been carried out there
during the last 20 years.
Insured Preservation.
II have seen the products OF this
laboratory tested in more exacting
laboratory" Capt Catch said, "and
can say without the least exaggera-
ton that this laboratory should be
one of our most hallowed shrines-
a place where the preservation OF
our country was insured"
Detailing the importance OF re-
search, Mr.. Kettering said he was
sure that when this war Is over
and the story can be told how re-
search changed the course of war
from black doubt at Pearl Harbor
to assured victory for the United
Nations, the American people will
, be eager to insist on continued and
increasing support of research to
insure our Nations safety in future
years.
Mr.. Daniels said that if the naval
laboratory had succeeded only in
perfection of radar, that one con-
tribution would have been worth all
the money invested in the laboratory
since it was born.

Plant Being Investigated
As Cure for Ulcers

Proclaimed a sure cure for ulcers
of the stomach, a plant has been
perfected by Daniel Chavez, farmer
and cattlenan Of San Luis Potosl,
Mexico, and has been Endorsed by
prominent physicians.
Chavez declares that he will not
commercialize the plant, as he has
sufficient money for his needs and
considers that as the plant was a
free gift of God to him, he should
make it free for human beings
everywhere. The health authorities
in Mexico City are investigating.

IN superlatives to describe the huge

sky over the main explosion.
Flames Shoot Up 1000 Feet.
One pilot estimated a sheet of
solid fiame shot 1000 feet into the
air about halfway through the at
tack. THE strip Of flame ploughed
right across the target" he said.
Some crews estimated the dense
smoke column lowered up to $4,000
feet over the flames and said 'the
glow Of fires could still be seen when
our aircraft were crossing the Dutch
coast on the way home"
Polish crews which participated
said the attack was one OF the most
effective that they had experienced.
Flight Sergt. Bill Beavo of We
taskin, Alberta, gave this graphic
picture:
With my eyes glued on the bomb

but suddenly / was amazed to see
the most terrific explosion l have
experienced on any raid. It ap-
peared to be q 4,00o-pound bomb

whole target, sending flames hun

approximately 1,575 tons Of high
explosives and fire bombs were un-
loaded on Essen.
For IS minutes" said the writer,
Edward J. Hart, ''heavy bombs and
incendiaries rained down at the
rate Of three tons every seconds" !"
An authoritative British source
said, however. the figures were
quite incorrect" He declined to
give any corrective figures.
Mr.. Hart. who was 1t one Of the
bomber stations when the planes
returned, declared veteran air crews
ARE OF the opinion that the raid
was the greatest ever" He quoted
the commander q the station as
saying ut was by far the most

The strategic situation in the Pa

candidate in 1914, tonight Of
fered "the American way of life
TO live and let live, to live and
help live" as an everlasting
code Of concord among the ma
tions Of the world" .
Gov. Bricker, in 4 speech at a
Nebraska Republican founders day
banquet, criticized the administra-
tion's policies In regard to manpover
and food shortages. and outlined his
views Of postwar America and its
part In world cooperation.
Earlier, At I general press con-
ference, he had commented, in re-
sponse to queries about hts can
didacy that "the Ohio delegation
will likely be pledged to me As a

he added, has many able men avail
able for the nomination.
Later Senator Butler, Republican,
Of Nebraska said It was his personal
opinion that Gov. Bricker would be
the 1914. Republican presidential
nominee. His opinion was given in
an interview. and Gov. Bricker was
not present when the comment was
made.
