President Roosevelt in his message
to congress Of two weeks ago, re-
porting on his conferences with
Prime Minister Winston Churchill,
Negro troops find themselves perch
ed for action on at least three i'm
portant fronts eagerly awaiting the
signal.
Actually we cannot think of
this as several wars" he wrote the
legislators. TT is all one war. ard
it must be governed by one basic
strategy"
The blueprint that came out OF
the Roosevelt Churchill talks was
given to the congress in these
words by the President:
First: despite our substantial
victories in the Mediterranean, we
face a hard and costly fight ur
through Italy-and a major job Of
organizing u positions before we
can take advantage Of them"
Seasoned Negro veterans from
the North African campaign are
now busily reconstructing bridges,
rebuilding roads, repairing harbor
and other landing installations,
and laying out airfields so that the
allied machine might continue its
march through Italy, just as they
did for the Sicilian invasion.
Second: From bases in the Brit
ish Isles we must be sure that we
have assembled the strength to
strike not just in n direction but
in mayn directions-by land and
sea and in the air-with overwhelm
ing forces and equipment"

Third: Although our Russian al
lies have made a magnificent our
ter-offensive and are driving orr
common enemies back day by day,
the Russian armes still have far
to 60 before they get into Germany
itself"
Negro transpor+ troops are busy
in Iran delivering the goods and
materials Of war that are making
possible the great offensive the
Russians are carrying on
Fourth: The Japanese hold firm

OrmOuS front from n JurlleS thru
the inundated islands to the Solo
mon sand through he Netherlands
East Indies to Malaysia and Bur

this defensive ring we must hit
