NAPLES FALL WILL
END PHASE OF WAR
CONTINUED From Page One)

That three-way Allied n e t
from Italy is already profoundly
influencing Nazi army dispositions
not only in France, Italy and on
the Balkan peninsula, but in Rus
STA. It is forcing the German high
command to keep substantial ele-
ments deployed and all but idle
in southern France, Greece and
the Balkans when they are vitality
needed in Russia or to bolster
threatened fronts in the west from
the English channel to the north
cape of Norway.
Berlin may be convinced that
the winter season is too close for
a major Allied invasion of the con
tinent this year from Britain. 1t
can never be certain, however,
that a lunge of limited detectives
might not be attempted In the
west at any moment, or several
of them. Such a lunge might have
as its objective gaining a sufficient
continental bridgehead to provide
bases for fighters to escort bomb
ers operating against Germany.

LONG JAP WAR

erlcan supplies would not be ex-
hausted after the war.
In an hours review of what
they saw and found on the two
months trip, the three senators
reported that folk on the home
front are still Understanding the
danger from Japan.
Russell said Chinese officials es-
timated the japanese are building
1000 planes a month instead OF
the 500 usually credited to them.
Brewster said the group was in
formed that the Japanese had
doubled their ship building capa-
city.
Brewster said he attributed a
recent statement by Gen. MacAr-
thur to concern in Australia over
reports that the Southwest Paci-
fic command might be subordinat-
ed to that of Lord Louis Mount
batten in India and Burma.
Russell said he agreed with Sena-
tor Lodge (R-Mass), who told the
Associated Press in Honolulu that
the men at the fighting front are
disturbed at the optimistic tone
of official commUniques issued by
the Army and Navy. Lodge has
not yet returned to this country
and Senator Chandler D-Ky) who
also made the trip, stopped in
California to visit his family.
The Georgian said he returned
with the opinion that the war would
not end in the Pacific before 1945
but he wouldn't be surprised at
anything that happens to Ger
many" He added that the Allied
air offensive ''certainly is plas-
tering Germany" but said he did
MT believe German collapse
would come through air bombata-
ment alone.
He showed some concern over
the fashion in which he said Am
erican activities are played down
in the newspapers and radio broad
casts of some of our Allies, In
GLIDING Great Britain. FROM ac-
counts read in Egypt, Russell said,
it was not apparent that Ameri-
cans were participating in any OF
the fighting.
Brewster complained that Am
erican military and diplomatic
leaders lacked the close coordina-
ton displayed by similar British
branches in the war theaters, point
ing out that the British sent men
of cabinet rank to the African
area.

other meaning, and it may be
coming.
To do so, however, inevitably
must mean not only the loss of
all Nazi Balkan satellites and their
vital war resources, but surrender
also of most of the Baltic states.
It must mean retirement within
the German citadel itself, even
probably from much of France,
to stand an Allied seige that soon
err or later could only end in I'M
conditional German surrender.
What happens along the Dnieper
and above it to the Baltic in the
next few weeks will go farther to

and every road junction was blown
up to slow down our advance"
the spokesman said.
For the third successive day,
air activity was at low level
as bad weather grounded the pre-
dominant Allied aerial armada.
Only fighters and fighter ombers
got off the ground and they at
tackled a train and a small motor
convoy. A few Nazi planes were
sighted and one was destroyed.
Middle East bombers attacked the
Greek airdromes, the port of Syros
and landing strips in the Aegean.
The Germans raided Coo in the
Dodecanese.
On the Eighth Army front in
central and Adriatic Italy, h e
spokesman said German parachute
troops were captured who COM
planned bitterly that their only job
was to fight rear guard actions.
One said there were only II men
left in his company as the result
of recent fighting"
Although the enerny appeared to
be beating toward the Volturno
river, the Fifth Army may not be
in position to continue its heavy
pressure far north of Naples until
supplies and reinforcements can
be brought up.
Since the first landings, Clark
has depended upon reinforcements,
tanks, guns, ammunition, food and
other paraphernalia of m e + n
warfare landed by shallow-draft
craft on the beaches. These were
loaded On trucks and transported
to the front over roads which in
many places had been rendered
almost impossible by demolitions.
The breach in the Naples de-
lenses eliminated 20 days of saw
age battle started wher Clark S
army first landed in the Salerno
area.
The first troops who waded
ashore included an American Ran
ger battalion which Immediately
swarmed into the hills just west,
northwest and north of Salerno tc
seize positions protecting the Fifth
Army's left flank.
AS a result of that swift action,
Salerno and the surrounding hills
to the west and north were held
with a comparatively small force
during the furious and prolonged
battle farther east and southeast
where the Germans, with tank sup
port, swarmed onto the Salerno
plain and tried vainly to drive the
Allies into the sea.
1t was only when that phase OF
the battle was won that Clark was
able to begin the arduous drive
northward toward his announced
detectives of Naples, Rome, the
northern Italian cities and all the
nation itself.
On the basis of the latest an.
nounced places seized by the two
Allied armies, the battle-line ex-
tended from Castellammare on the
south shore of the Bay of Naples
northeast through Nocera and Mon
temarano to Tarella. From there,
the front dips slightly to the
southeast to San Angelo, thence
east of Melfi. From Melfi, the
line runs north of Foggia and then
due east to Zapponetn.
