Churchill FDR
N eur decisions

WASHINGTON, May 81 tUP)-
President Roosevelt said today he
expected his war talks with Prime
Minister Winston Church would
reach the point of final decisions
some time next week.
He agreed with a statement in
Churchill's recent speech to con-
gress that the majority of the
United States forces are in the
Pacific.
Reporting on his talks with
Churchill-in which the grand Al
lied strategy to close a tight ring
around the Axis is being planned
the President said he and the
prime minister expect to receive to-
night tentative recommendations
drawn by their staff chiefs.
EXAMINE RECOMMENDATIONS
Mr. Roosevelt and Churchill will
examine the recommendations over
the weekend. Some time next week
they will iron out the kinks and
make the plans final
The President would not hint at
the nature of the plans, although
it was generally believed they in
volved a long-range plan for at
tacking Japan as well as continued
and more immediate drives against
Germany.
He was asked whether he and
Churchill had given any considera-
ton to the political future of Italy

BLAST ENTRENCHMENTS
Army bombers blasted Japanese

Sarana bay These entertainments
were believed to be part of the enc
mey's last remaining defense line.
The Japanese, though in virtual
ly hopeless position in the isolated
Chichagof harbor area of that AL
eutian island, were expected to make
a desperate last-ditch stand from
machine gun nests and foXholes.
Military experts do not believe
that the enemy will attempt de-
fenSe from any specific line. They
anticipate a scattered or point to-
point resistance, such as the Japa-
nese put up in the swampy jungles
of New Guinea and the Solomons.
CASUALTIES LIGHT
Secretary of War Henry L. Slim
son reported that American casual
ties thus far have been relatively
light although some rather sharp
fighting, with heavier casualties,
may occur before operations are
concluded.
TIE almost always present Aleut-
ian fog may help the japanese
stave off final defeat for a while.
But military authorities are conf
dent that with two days of clear
weather the Americans can COM
plete the job. Good weather would
permit the accurate use of light
field artillery and mortars as well
as aircraft.
The American forces are now in
control of Sarana Pass, the only
accessible gateway into the Chicha-
gof harbor area. The japanese have
no way of getting out except pos
sibly suicide attempts to escape in
small boats by sea under cover of
fog. Sarana Pass cuts northeast

Chichagof harbor to Sarana bay.
