Farley Predicted Axis Crackup

James A. Farley, former postmaster general,
must have had some inside information when he said
in Nogales last week that an axis internal crackup in
Europe imminent.
He even went further than that when he said in
Phoenix two days later he felt "the in
Europe would end before another winter"
The crackup got under way Sunday when Benito
Mussoni, dictator Of Italy for the past Fl years.
signed as premier
From business report published weekly and
which is more or less confidential in nature we have
been led to believe for the past several months that
the end Of the in Europe would come this fall and
We made wager to the effect that it would be over
by November 1. We know of one here who is
betting it will end by September l.
We took with grain of salt press reports from
Washington the other day saying the war would last
six more years. It wouldn't surprise us if the Japs
are knocked out within very few months after the
close of hostilities with Germany
If Russia will grant the Allies permission to
establish bases in Siberia, the United States and
Great Britain will finish up the Japs in quick time
but if those bases can't be obtained the Amer-
and British navies once they be concentrated
in the Pacific and longer find it necessary fight
in the Atlantic and Mediterranean will send the
Jap navy to the bottom Of the Pacific and force those
little followers of TOTO to terns-terms made in
Tokyo and not in Washington.

Army Recruiting Miners

Efforts to recruit workers for the vital copper,
zinc and mOlybdenum mines failed completely that
it now becomes necessary for the army to release
$500 soldiers for this tremendously important work
Production of these vital metals has been
seriously threatened by an alarming manpOWer short
age Failure to produce sufficiently to meet the
rising demand Of the armed forces could result in
disaster.
Soldiers selected to work in the mines will be
placed in enlisted corps If they fail to con-
tinue to work in approved mines, or if there is i'm
provement in the manpower situation so that their
continued employment longer would be necessary,
they then would be recalled to active duty
This step may be setting pattern that would be
applied to relieve acute manpower shortage in all
vital industries. Certainly there is clear recog
milton by the military Of the Importance of the home
front. Without the home front the military cannot
function. It would be useless to build up powerful
army if that army is to be stripped of it's power by
our failure to provide it with fighting tools.
With the possible exception Of agriculture, no
other vital industry is meeting with serious
difficulty in securing workers. This is due largely
to the fact that more and more women being
trained to replace in plants. Capable as
they are, women however cannot take on the heavy
physical labor in either industry agriculture.
If this recruitment of miners from the army
works out satisfactorily, expect the program
to be extended to any other home front activity
threatened under similar circumstances with tagging

Beginning OF The End

"The collapse Of Italy the preaching of
Hitler's fortress of Europe. It the breaking
of that famous axis Of steel of which Mussoni used
to boast and it means very definitely the beginning
of the end Of the war in Europe" says the Arizona
Daily Star
Just as soon as the end comes we may expect to
see immediate partial rehabilitation of the Amer
can and British armed forces for there will be no
need of the present vast armies and naves to knock
out Japan.
The end can't come too to war weary

WASHINGTON, July 29-Ameri-
can forces on Guadalcanal learned
many lessons which will be invalu-
able in the coming struggle for re-
possession of the Pacific from the
Japanese.
Many of these lessons were de-
tailed in the Infantry Journal by
Capt. Gerald H. Shea, who gave
interesting bits of information, often
skinned over in dispatches during
combat which will prove useful in
the next island conquest.
Japs Strip Planes
Japanese flyers seldom fly into
combat with parachutes, he report
ed. Everything possible, including
radios, are eliminated to gain better
performance. They use parachutes
on other missions.
''The business of Jap self-sacri-
flee, by tying themselves in COCO
nut trees and sniping is, except,
perhaps, in a few scattered in
stances, legendary he reported.
He said tree isn't good posi-.
ton from which to direct harass-
ing fire.
Treat Prisoners Well
'The importance CT treating pris-
oners we'll cannot be over-stressed, y
he wrote. Most of the japanese
apparently expected to be killed
when captured. Shea thought kind
treatment drew much information
from prisoners. He said interpret
ers should GO with each leading bat
talon, because information from the
enemy must be obtained quickly ano
gotten to officers who can use it
Shea saw number of clips OF
wooden bullets for 25-caliber rifles
which baffled him. They looked
like doweled pegs. and might have
been experimental, but they caused
painful flesh burns.
Telephone Advice
Jungle fighters should all carry
sharp bayonets CIR bolos, and have
stones for sharpening them, as the
blades soon dull against tough vines
and bamboo.
Two canteens for water were the
absolute minimum.
Don't try to answer the phone
with your helmet on" Shea wrote.
mo more sulphurous language has
ever been used on any one article
of government-issue than the he'll
met-phone combination.
