WHAT STALIN KNOWS
Christian Science Monitor

While Joseph Stain cried loudly for
action last autumn, action was already
being prepared, and Mr.. Stain knew it,
as we were to learn after the invasion of
Africa Now in his reply to the felicita-
tions offered him by United Nations lead
ers. on June %. second anniversary of
Hitlers ill-eonceived attack on Russia,
Premier Stain has once again struck the
urgent note.
Conditions have been created for the
final defeat of the common enemy he re
minds the Allies. Victory will come all
the sooner :. the sooner we strike our
joint united blows against the enemy from
the east and from the west" This might
suggest that Mr. Stain does not know eX-
actly what is ahead That Is what the
Nazis would like to think. But expert
ence will warn them against such an as
sumption Remember November s..
The present lull-and this is a relative
word in a period peppered with shuttle
bombing of Germany and Italy-is indeed
war of nerves but it is no ''phoney
war" like that conducted on the French
front while the NaZis prepared their
blitzkrieg on the west The menace of
invasion has tied up huge German forces.
Coupled with the great air attacks on
German industry it has undoubtedly de-
layed and possibly forestalled German
offensive in Russia.
One cannot imagine that Mr.. Stain
does not know the plans, or that the plans
were incomplete and therefore subject
to change on one ally's request, or that
they are not moving ahead according to
schedule. The last time Mr.. Stain SEEM
ed to be urging the allies to hurry up, he
knew just how fast they were going and
where. Hitler would like to know what
he knows now.

AMGOT IN ACTION

The AMGOT, Allied Military Govrn-
ment of Occupied Territory, has a big
job to do.
Upon the able military shoulders of
the AMGOT officers will fall the duties
of administering to civilians IN territory
wrested from Axis forces.
In Sicily the officers of the organiza-
tion, who are specially trained in admin
istration, have already demonstrated how
it will work
In one captured town the Fascist mayor
was deposed from power at the request of
the towns inhabitants, who had had en-
ough of his despotic regime even before
the Yanks came along A new mayor
was elected by popular vote and now
everything is running smoothly.
AS Allied armies advance and more
and more nations are retaken from the
Axis slavers, the problems of military
government will become more and more
complex. With many of the countries,
such as France, Belgium, Holland and
others seized by the Nazis, the job will
be one of simply establishing a tempor-
airy government to give the freed civil
ians chance to regain their composure
and regain their former self-governing
ways.
But in Germany, Japan and perhaps
Italy, the military government must rule
with an iron fist in glove of felt. They
must do an effective job in order to pre-
vent the sabotage, destruction and def
ance which the Nazis to their woe, have
found prevails even though a people be
conquered"

MIRAGE STILL A MIRAGE

The mirage of half a century, ago. when
thirst stricken travellers s t a 6 ere
through the sand dunes west of Yuma to-
ward what they thought were green fields
appeared still a mirage today, although
irrigation waters have been brought &C
ross the sands.
The Imperial Irrigation districts plan
to open 10000 acres of land on the very
western edge of East Mesa apparently
has been given government approval.
But opening up of larger tract on the
mesa to supplement Imperial Valleys ag
ricultural domain may be stymied-at
least temporarily.
The Bureau of Reclamation or any
other department of the government can
not be blamed for the delay in realization
of dream. The war and its attendant
problems of manpower shortage and farm
equipment scarcity can.
The Bureau has advanced a PROPOSE
tion to district chiefs, who were success
full in bringing the waters of the Colo
RADIO across the East Mesa to the valley
via the All-American canal, to open up
larger tract than the 10000 acres which
will soon be thrown open to cultivation
The rub centers in when it is disclosed
that the proposition hinges on whether
the first project will prove successful.
AlTeduy o,ooU acres OI lduu, knOWn u
be productive, in the cultivated section
of the valley have been made idle be
cause enough tractors, discs, ploughs and
other equipment could not be obtained
to work them
Even though the farmers who have
agreed to experiment with the first new
project are successful in scraping to-
gether enough equipment to farm the
land there is little or no chance that
they could get enough to farm an addi-
tional lare area.
So it looks like the desert will remain
a desert. At least till after the war

too early to attempt to discuss all

1--WE must not relax our pressure
on the enemy" he continued, "by
taking time out to define every
boundary and settle every political
controversy in every part of the
world. The all important thing now
is to get on with the war"
CONSTRUCTIVE PLANS
Mr.. Roosevelt promised early
serious and constructive plans" on
the home front dealing with food,
manpower and other domestic prob
lens. He did not go into detail.
But for war veterans he proposed
a detailed program of benefits
which undoubtedly will figure in the
1914 presidential campaign unless
it is enacted by Congress prior to
the next election. The program,
other than as it related to disabled
veterans, would facilitate and in
large measure underwrite the costs

10 Divisions in
1st Allied | andinq

WASHINGTON. July 29.-tUP)-
The initial Allied invasion force in
Sicily numbered 100000 American,
British. Canadian and French
troops. the equivalent roughly OF
IN divisions. President Roosevelt
revealed in his radio address last
night. -n
The force was carried to Sicily
in 1000 vessels. the greatest ARMADA
ever assembled. 1t also carried
with it l4,OOO vehicles, 1.8OO guns
and 600 tanks, the President said.
He added that the initial force
was followed "every day and every
night" by thousands of reinforce
mentS.
The navy disclosed earlier that
more than half of the fleet OF 3.O0O
ships were vessels OF the Uniteo
States navy, ranging all the way
from Cruisers to Torpedo boats and
small landing craft. Forty thous-
and officers and men were IN the
invasion force.
The story of the invasion from
the Naval standpoint is the STORY
Of the success of the many types
of specialized landing craft, large
and small, which have been de,
veloped to break down the coastal
walls of the Axis European For
treSs.'
The Navy said that crews, many
of whom had never seen the ocean
wear before, drove their rearlng'
blnnt-nosed landing craft through
heavy seas with seamanship that
caused experienced officers to mar

CHINA OUTLOOK BRIGHTER
Iona Beach PreSs-TeIe0rUn,

Tides have turned for China Not only
has China become one of the leading ma
tions of the united group. but sentiment
has turned in it's direction in the general
strategy of war.
China has earned this recognition. Six
years it has borne the burden of conflict
it has suffered territorial sacrifaces, and
heavy blows. The best that can be done
for it is little enough; and this is the
conclusion of the civilized world.
While China has suffered beyond
measure, the cost to the enemy has been
tremendous. During the last years of
the war, 100000 casualties have been
recorded and the japanese navy has had
reason to regret it's Pearl Harbor mistake
A great part of its navy and merchant
marine has disappeared.
Conditions in the South Pacific point
toward Allied victory. Victory after
victory in New Georgia island Munda
and Rendova, as we'll as on Guadalcanal
and other outposts in the Pacific, tell of
the steps that are being taken toward
conquering Japan.
When victory does come, let the United
States remember its debt to brave China.
