Jops Are Declared Fighting Rear Guard Action
In Hope Of Sickening u S. Against Long War

Sicken of travelling that road before
we get to the end of it.
Evidence to support this belief
came in the efforts the Japs made
during the campaign to reinforce
both Munda and Kolombangara
Maintaining a force of from $4,000
to 10000 men for six months in
two areas lacerated daily and almost
nightly, too, by bombs and shells
meant constant drain on manpoWer
for the japanese,
They bore that cost even though
they were throwing their men were
untenable When we went up to
New Georgia with our troops to
occupy position over which we
had demonstrated our control, the
japanese far from getting out
while the getting was good. threw
still more men to their death in the
task Of defending what they knew
was indefensible
The JapS did not support their
men with major units of their fleet.
They diG not even make the effort
which is possible to them since they
operate on interior lines of commu-
nication-of filling the skies with an
overwhelming quantitative superb
ority in airplanes. Instead they
parceled out an inadequate portion
of their air and surface fleets for the
battle.
A warning nation which is tenn
porarily holding a line in order to
group the force behind it for de-
cisive attack does not expend men
and equipment in this way. But
warning nation which has decided it
can fight only a rear-guard action
does. 1t seems reasonable to believe,
not merely from New Georgia alone,
but from the Aleutians and New
Guinea as well, that Japan is now
fighting a rear-guard action to bleed
us into sickening of the war against
her. If face-saving were her motive
then she would not have gone into
an untenable position in the first
place

There Is no SmugnesS among
our fighting men either about
the course of the war in the Pa
cific or the bitter surprises the
enemy may be counted on to
have in store for us there. But
for the first time in the year
since l have had experience with
them there is a realistic belief
among ranking naval officers
that the final outcome of the
war is now in our hands for de-
cision. Japan has lost control
of her destiny and we nave
gained control Of it,
There never seemed to be any real
doubt among our men that we would
win the war against Japan. But
until very recently the belief in
the inevitability of our victory was
an emotion founded on what was
believed of the United States rather
than on what we were showing on
the battle field as compared with
what Japan was showing. Now
there are facts rather than emo
tions to prove the case.
The facts of the present phase of
the Pacific war show that Japan
Is a second-cla power and we are
a first-class one: that she only has
geography on her side and the will
ingness of her people to die at her
command; that we have the ma
chinery for overcoming her geo.
graphical advantages ultimately and
that our people, at least our men on
the field are prepared to die for
us at our command.
This means we can win the war
decisively provided We do not falter
before the COS, of dong so. II we do
falter. If the present generation OF
Americans does not have the stom-
sch for the bloody task that lies
ahead of It and yields the settle
Pacific to the next generation, then
Japan will be let off with partial
defeat.
In any ease. the decision is now
up to us. The utmost Japan can do
is affect our decision. She cannot
alter it against our will. The most
she can do-at least on the basis
of what we have learned about her
after fighting her for nearly two
years-iS make the cost of exercising
our will great enough for us to COM
promise with her.
At least this is the opinion of
ranking naval officers whom this re-
porter has met in recent days over
widely spaced areas of the Pacific.
There is some reason to believe
that Japan has become aware she
cannot win the war and is now
fighting for the partial victory that
will make the task of total victory
easier for her next generation.
The most recent evidence of this
developed in the campaign for New
Georgia which, with its adjoining
strongpoint of Kolombangara, were

Mrs. Wright's Story
OF Wounds Denied

LONG BEACH, Calf, Aug. 12,-
Detective 1t. L. @. Martin last night
quoted Harry WOODY Morgan, cafe
worker, as saying he was married to
Mrs. Catherine Wright at the time
of the Pearl Harbor attack, but that
she was not wounded by bombs, as
she claims
1t. Martin said Morgan volun-
teered his statement after reading
newspaper accounts of how Mrs
Wright allegedly kidnapped tiny
Judith Gurney from an Albany

The detective quoted Morgan as
saying he was married October T.

wife of Army Sergt Jesse Wright
and that she was injured week
later when she fell off the back
porch of her home. He said she
was not hurt during the December
7 bombing, 1t. Martin related.

he still was married to her when

Japan did not go into either

Airports Athwart Ship Routes.
The Munda and Villa airports are
so situated Strategically as to lie
athwert the routes of our warships
and planes going up to Bougainville,
They are also situated admirably to
provide an air screen for Japanese
forces coming down to attack Qua
dalcanal. But because we won at
Guadalcanal we were able to prevent
Japan, with our ships and planes,
from ever even for a single day, US
ing Munda and Villa for either of
these purposes or in fact, for any,
thing at all except as a catch all for
our bombs and shells.
The fact is the japanese never
made any really serious effort to
use the airports for their natural
military purposes. There is gen.
eral belief that the Japs had a
realistic appreciation of the conse-
quences of their defeat at Guadal-
canal and never actully hoped to
be able to use these airports in that
way Instead, it is believed, they
maintained $4,000 or 10000 men on
these airportS for the rather dubious
tactical purpose of making us dis
perse the full force of our attacks
on Bougainville and the more effec-
tive strategical purpose of establish
ing policy of inf1icting casualties
