The old way Of tackling it would be
to say:
There is only so much world trade to
be done and if the other fellow gets our
share, we shall have to go without. So
let US fight Let us make arrangements
to keep the other fellow cut of as many
markets as We can. Let us cut our prices
and cut his throat in the markets where
we DO have to face him. And if a country
is not buying from us as much as we
think it ought to. let us refuse to buy
its goods. Then it will be poorer still
and will buy still less, whether from US
Or from anybody else"
I don't wish to stir up the old con-
troyersies about free trade versus protec-
ton. There was perhaps fair amount
OF unreality about both sides of that
argument. But I do say that the old

hundreds OF miles which must be heavily
manned and thickly studded with guns,
A similar salient extends up to Lenin-
grad. These peninsulas in the German
line are OF no value unless it is intended
to launch new offensives against Moscow
or Leningrad, and yet, four months ago,
Hitler stated Germany's general policy
was to attack only where attack is nee
essary.' Hitler's pride apparently is a big
in these deep pockets.
Missed on North Africa.
7. Elsewhere, too, the German war
machine has not clicked with it's former
precision since the Fuehrer became it's
chief commander. His intuition left him
completely in the dark as the Allies pre-
pared to land in North Africa, although
his own propaganda services gave him
considerable warning. His frantic efforts
to retrieve the situation show pretty
clearly that he was caught f1at-footed.
g. There was lack of f1neSse when he
seized Toulon, the French naval base.
With the same exactitude that swept
Norway into the German net or which
conquered France in five weeks, it seems
probable that the Toulon coup would
have been managed with such smooth
ness as to sweep all or most of the French
fleet into the Nazi net before it could
be scuttled.
All of this may mean that Cd Hitler's
intuition is beginning to fail him, that
CD the craftsmanship which formerly
executed his sixth-sense guesses and
made them look so good now is lacking
after so many quarrels with his generals,
or 90 simply that he finally has over
extended himself, attempted too much
with his means and that decisions which
once would have been good no longer
can be carried out.
In assessing Hitler's generalship, it is
to be borne in mind that he made two
of the biggest mistakes of the war to
date, even with his best generals about
him, when he failed to attack England

HTLERS EIGHT GLAR|NG MILITARY ERRORS RISING
Fehef Humhep Prove to B Sorry Substitute for copbe1o

NEW YORK-Adolf Hitler's mystical
intuition which was supposed to guide
him in Russia like a cats whiskers in
the dark has proved poor substitute
for the technical training and qualities
of generalship.
After the slaughter at Stalingrad,
after the loss of virtually all the terri
tory won at great cost in the 1912 Ger
man offensive, after the break in the
siege ring at Leningrad, it is evident
that Hitler is no bargain as general.
1t. Gen. Vastly Chuikov, commander
of the Soviet 62nd Army, which held
Stalingrad and who thus had close OBJ
servation of the tactics and strategy
of Hitler-led army, summed up all
German mistakes into this:
The Germans made the strategic
mistake of putting Hitler in command" j."
Acted in December, 194I.
1t was on December d, 1941, that
Hitler announced that the close connec-
tion of political aims with the vast war
theater had induced him to follow his
intuitionS' and take over personally
the command of the German armies.
Up to that time the German military
machine had functioned with marvellous
efficiency in the lightning invasion of
Poland, Norway, the Low Countries and
France, the Balkans and, at first, in
Russia.
Much of these successes were the re-

of the need and the opportunities for
| their services.
Young and attractive Mary Brewster
White, manager of the womanpower
campaign for VINO, puts it this way:
''Womanpower is very complex as
we'll as a very fundamental problem.
Because it involves in many cases a
complete dislocation of a pattern gen.
erations of living have produced, it is
often difficult to explain the need for
women to work.
IF 100000 must work . as indeed
| they must :. . our first job is to make
working an entirely normal procedure
under a wartime economy.
I'VE feel that all American women
must become work minded as fast as
possible"
A worker draft bill is pending in Con-
| gress which would provide for compul-
sorry steps to enlist them if the President
sees fit.
Compulsory job registration of women
was undertaken by Germany long ago.
England, with reluctance, installed the
| system over period of time Canada
did SO several months ago.
The present worker draft bill before
Congress, in part, considers the liability
of every man between the ages of 18
and IS, and every woman, 18 to so, to
contribute personal services to the war
effort in non-combat capacities to the
best of his Or her abilities"
Need of Measure Doubted.
Exemptions from compulsory service
under this proposal would cover expec-
tant mothers and women with children
under 1o years of age, or having in their
care Ill and aged persons WAACS,

members of the Womens Auxiliary

especially important factors in the labor
force-in optical goods, rubber goods,
Photographic supplies, leather goods,
electrical goods, aircraft and metal prod
ucts.
They were employed in broad range
of occupations, including some requiring
heavy manual labor.
In this war the opportunities extend
even further.
Women now are working in the round
houses, as turn-table operators, hostler
helpers. locomotive engineers and cutting
ties for one of the country's largest rail-
roads.
Even in Lumber Camps.
Thousands Of women are laboring in
lumber camps-in the west where they
are known as Pauline Bunyans," in the
Eastern camps where they are called
'Lumberjills."
At the Hercules Powder Co. plant in
New Jersey, 400 women are making gun
powder.
In Youngstown, Ohio, nearly 1000
ranging from girls in their teens to gray
haired grandmothers are toiling in the
steel mills On the West Coast, in the
Kaiser shipyards, 1000 women between
the ages of 25 and 40 are building ships.

s. The Germans were caught off bal

where did Hitler fall down so completely

He wisely limited his 1943 offensive

it succeeded, he would have deprived

Eighteen million American women
will be at work outside their homes by
the end of 1943, the War Manpover
Commission estimated.
These women, VINO says, can con-
slider themselves total war soldiers" just
as surely as if they were with their
husbands, sons, brothers or fathers at
the front lines.
The need for women in jobs in war
plants is localized to some 40 or so areas,
VINO adds, and women will be dis
couraged from leaving their own COM
munlties to go to labor shortage areas,
but =.
Thousands Of women will be needed
to carry on non-war jobs Hun
dreds-young girls and older women
and those with physical disabilities, or
small children, Ill or aged dependents
will be urged to work on a part-time
basis.
Convinced of Supply.
VINO estimates there are plenty" of
VI IIldIIleu WOI1GIl
living in labor critical communities who
once were nurses, telephone operators,
ticket-takers or teachers, to give a few
examples, who can replace girls going
into war industries.
VINO says that two out Of every three
women workers will be needed in such
lines as transportation, laundries,
grocery and other retail stores, hotels,
restaurants.
If there is any question in your mind
as to where you are needed most or
what you can best do, and If you are
between the ages of 18 and As, In sound
health and with no children under IA,
consult your nearest United States EN-
ployment Service for advice, VINO urges.
Though some millions of women are
already at work, the question arises:
Will the number set for l943 enroll
voluntarily? Voluntary registration in
some communities has not been con-
spicuously successful reports indicated.

officials hasten to explain-they merely
haven't been impressed with the extent
Evening star., 1943-02-21

That Hitler's equipment as politician
and World War corporal do not make
him good general is evident, however,
from these eight glaring mistakes in
the handling Of the German army since
he took over the command:
/. The failure to take Voronezh. In
so big hurry were the Germans to get
on to Stallingrad and the Caucasus that
they did not stop to reduce this strong
hold Instead, this key center was left
on the German flank where the Russians
proceeded to build up powerful striking
force against a German salient which
grew longer and more vulnerable with
every week.
2. The same mistake was repeated at
Stalingrad. The Germans could not
igguore Stalingrad in order to organize
the German flank while conquest of the
Caucasus went forward But again Hit
Ter was in too much Of a hurry. He de-
cided to launch two offensiveS, smugly
assuming that with part Of his strength
he would take Stalingrad while he could
push on with the other part to Maikop,
Grozny and the passes through the Cau-
Casus Mountains. He might have ac-
complished one objective with all of his
forces. With his forces split he ac-
compliShed neither.
3. When Stalingrad did not fall he
staked his personal prestige on its cap
ture. He declared on September 80,
1912, I'VE shall take Stalingrad, you may
be sure of that" He drove his armies
to the attack too long and too stub
borniy, regardless of losses which drained
German strength.
Weakened Front.
4. When the Russian counter-bloW did
| fall Oh November 10 there is no indica-
ton that Hitler, as commander in chief,
! saw it coming or senSed its power and
| Importance. He is reported to have
withdrawn several divisions and a part
| of his air force for winter of rest and
| to meet the Allied invasion threat from
North Africa He thus weakened his
! eastern front just when the Russians
| could be expected to launch another
| winter couiteroffensive. Hitler also
| showed hesitation when the blow did
| fall No attempt was made to extricate
the 9th Army at Stalingrad from it's dan
| gerous position, and no general with
drawal from the dangerous salient was
begun.

suit Of Hitler's lunches strategic deci-
sions based as much on the political as
the military factors involved-and the
German high command had the tech
nique and the means to carry them out.
But finally Hitler had played wrong
hunch and his armies were in difficulty
not the hunch that was wrong; it was
the army's leadership.
Evening star., 1943-02-21

that Germany's resources will not per-
objectives at this time, and he has
refrained from ordering new spectacular
offensives, which would increase Ger
many's liabilities, against Turkey or
through Spain.
1t Is to be assumed also that he
acquiesced in Marshal Erwin Rommels
decision to surrender Italian Libya in
order to concentrate in more defen-
sible position in Tunisia.
