bad-far worse, I believe, than the
people Of other countries ever real
lied.
The Chinese have been 50 hard
up for fighting equipment that their
success in withstanding utter de-
feat is one Of the wonders Of the
world. They have been hamstrung :
for lack OF arms and equipment Of .
all catesories. About the only
weapon they have had with which =
TO wage war. apart from their
splendid determination and cour-
age, has been pmitless space to
trade to the enemy for time.
Can't Launch Offensive.
The Chinese have been waiting to
get equipped by the Allies. Mean
time, their resources have been 50
small that the military command
hasn't found 1t feasible to engage in
major offensive operations. About
all that could be done was hold ths
line as best possible. :
But there's lot more to China's
troubles than that. She's been ask
ing for arms and hasn't been saying
much about food or raiment.
The economic position is depend
ent on the military situation. With
the Japs in possession of most OF
the centers Of production and trade.
it's not hard to see that the eco
nomic structure Of Unoccupied China
must be shot as full of holes as a
sieve. Things are bad, and imitation
is running through the country.
The Chinese need equipment with

Involved in this Nipponese drive is
city which the Chinese have been
very anxious to get back-Ichang,

invaders, who captured 1t last June,

was told in Chungking that the
Chinese felt If they had airpower
they could reclaim Ichang and thus
open up Human Province with its
badly needed rice. For this oper-
alton and others. they wanted be-.
tween 800 and 500 warplanes. Had
it been possible to get those planes
then, we might have had 4 different
story today.
Burma can't be invaded before the
end OF next September, because Of
the monsoon weather. Thus the
urgently needed aid will have to be
handled by air transport for 4 long
time to come. This presumably
means that the chief help from
China to stand of the present Jap
offensive will be in bombers and
fighter planes.

This Changing World
StoIin !. Cool to Suggestion Thot He Confer
With Roosevelt and Churchill on Strategy

Competent observers say he is
willing to discuss matters Of i'm
mediate strategy which would
bring the American, British and
Russian forces in a conversent
move toward Berlin this year.
In the event, however, that he
and his advisers believe that
round-the-clock bombing Of the
Reich could have the same imme-
diAte effect on the Nazi forces As
actual invasion, there is q good
possibility that meeting among
the three leaders might be ar
ranged soon.
The speech made by British
Foreign Secretary Eden Thurs
day gives the hrst clear hint as
to what decisions are to be
reached at the meetings OF the
joined chiefs Of stah Of the Amer
ican and the British forces under
the eyes Of President Roosevelt
and Prime Minister Churchill.
Mr.. Eden spoke Of the round
the-clock bombinss as the thing
that will hurt the Nazis most.
From that speech 1t is inferred
that while important amphibious
and ground operations will take
place, the main Allied activity in
Western Europe will be confined
to relentless bombings Of Ger
man and rman-subjected mil
itary and industrial establish
ments.
There is a heated debate on
the subject of bombing among
responsible military and naval
men. Some believe that avia-
ton. while a powerful and es-
sential weapon in modern war
fare, cannot reduce the armed
forces of I nation. regardless OF
how devastating the air bom-
bardments may be, unless the
enemy Is totally lacking in air
and ground defenses.
Infantry Called Decisive.
1t is pointed out that in the
Tunisia campaign, for instance,
the overwhelming air superiority
Of the Allies was OF enormous
help to them. But had 1t not
been for the American, British
and French divisions we would
still be fighting in North Africa.
Other equally competent SOL
diers say the power Of the air
force has not yet been fully shown
and that the overwhelming su-
periority Of the Allies over the
Luftwaffe Is bound to bring such
havoc in the Reich that the
Nazis soon will be crying for
mercy.
For the time being, 1t is difn-
cult to say which of the two
strategies will prove correct.
But so far as the Russians are
concerned. they are merely in
terested in whether these heavy
bombings will compel the Nazi
high command to dispatch q suf-
hciently strong portion of the
Luftwafie to the western front to
make the operations Of its ground
forces Ineffective and thus re-
move altogether the danger Of
a Nazi break-throueh in Russia.
This IS the, only thing that
matters to the Soviet high COM
mand. II events prove this to
be the case, there seems to be
little doubt that Stain will meet
with his American and British
colleagues. If the Russians be-
lieye round-the-clock operations
are only 4 poor substitute, Stain
Is likely to remain in his tent.
