WASHINGTON, Oct g. = Presi- dent Roosevelt declared today the United States will drive the "treacherous invading Japanese from the Philippines and establish truly independent Philippine ma tion, and meanwhile we never will consider as legal any action of the former collaborationist Philippine Executive Commission nor the pre- sent so-called Philippine Republic" !"
 The formal statement discussed the formation of the puppet govern ment on October IA, noting that it's first act was to sign military al- liance with Japan, and its second to direct a hypocritical appeal for American sympathy.
 This appeal made in fraud and deceit was designed to confuse and mislead the Filipino people" the President said.
 The Presidents comment followed Tokyo broadcast which described the second day of special session of the. Jap-controlled assembly, which approved by an overwhelm- ing majority" a treaty of Alliance with Japan. thus ensuring the de- fense of the Philippines
 The assembly also said national planning board was organized whose work will include survey of the Nations economic resources i'll or der to ensure self -sufficiency' and provide the government with the fiscal resources needed for it's sup port.
 The Tokyo broadcast acknow- ledged that "sedition" and "gueril- la activities" continued in the Phil ippines by asserting that the na- tional assembly of the puppet gov- ernment had voted in Manila to grant an amnesty to anyone engag- ed in such activities if he swears Ito become a good citizen

The W ashington Merry-Go Round
By DREW PEARSON tua,or Robert .. Alien on active duty)

WASHINGTON-Here is one req son why we needed the Azores so hadly as an anti-submarine base. The U-boats not only have new de- vices but also new strategy, and may converge around the bottleneck to the Mediterranean between the Azores and Gibralter.
 DEVICES: Latest Nazi torped- oes are superior to the former type which exploded only on contact. New torpedoes are exploded D on contact t2) by magnetic attraction on coming close to the steel huil' (3) by the vibration of the engines of the ship under attack ms makes it possible for the submarine to succeed in it's mission much more frequently than before. A torpedo is much less likely to mss, since missing actual contact with the target does not now mean, as previously, that it misses the target
 STRATEGY: Conveys have now discovered that Nazi subs are hunt ing in packs of sufficient number to employ the same sort of naval strategy which large units of naval vessels are able to use. A group oi submarines will surface on one side of the convoy, and thus decoy the escort vessels in that direction. Meantime, another group Of sub marines on the other side Of the convoy will approach within easy firing range and discharge their torpedoes. A :.
 observers believe. however, that the main artery Qf commerce from the United States to the European theatre of war-the North Atlantlc run-is still so well guarded that the submarine menace is licked so far as that run is concerned. It IS feared. however, that the Nazis VIII now strike at another vulnerable point, namely, the Straits of CID ralter. Since these straits must be passed by all Allied merchant snip ping supplying the Mediterranean theater of war, including North Ar rica. Sicily. Sardinia, Corsica, Italy and the Adriatic-nOt to mentlon all the shipping now passing through the Mediterranean bound for the Straits of Suez and India this area is due for a concentrated submarine attack.
