Hiram Johnson to

BY Helen ESssry

Almost any day now Senator
Hiram johnson. II, may be back at
his desk, ready 10 return TO the end
less debates and legislation In
which he has been a key figure for
more than a quarter OF a century.
Enfeebled by pneumonia and his
advanced age. Senator Johnson
went 10 Florida in January for a
rest and some OF his colleagues
feared he might never resume his
active duties.
But Johnson who last spoke in
the Senate against the Connally
postwar resolution last December,
has kept in daily touch with his
office
Now he is said 10 be well enough

Prospects are dim that Repre-
sentative Sol Bloom Cd OF New
York, chairman OF the House For.
eign Affairs Committee, will get
anywhere with his crusade to have
future International agreements
approved by majority vote OF the
two Houses OF Congress, rather
than ratified by a two.thrds vote
OF the Senate.
Although the State Department
snd some other administrative Of
fcials have indicated a strong
leaning toward Blooms viewpoint,
the plain fact is that a great many
senators are strongly opposed TO
surrendering their constitutional
prerogatiye OF treaty ratification.
Charles Z. Wilson. WPB vice

The Military Aspects

The military aspects are a very
different matter. The great strength
OF German strategy built on in
terror lines" has been turned TO a
weakness. A nation on the offensive
which can strike overpowering blows
at any point it chooses along the
perimeter Of the territory II con-
trolls has a great advantage.
Its lines are short, they are pro-
tected. they move from the center
outward like the radn Of a circle.
The opposing power must laborious.
ly follow the circumference-witness
the supply lines from the Allies to
Russia which have to sweep around
all OF Europe to Murmansk or al
around Africa to the Middle East.
But interior lines become weak
ness when a nation goes on the de-
fensive. AS a matter Of fact Gen
eral Won Clausewitz, who wrote one
Of the most authoritative books or
strategy. said:
When you have TO go on the de
fensive, It is too late TO go on the
defensive"
When you do so, interior lines
make it all the worse.
Veritas comments on the position
Of the enemy in the present situa-
ton as follows:
g. the fact that he is inside a
circumference which he must main
tain is a deadly disadvantage be-
cause he is pinned down at every
point on the circle. whereas his op-
ponents are free to exploit their la
tent advantages Of exterior lines by
hitting everywhere at once II they
choose"
Therefore in viewing the present
situation in Europe we must bear
these two factors in mind:
First. the Nazis can hold down the
revolution within until the Germans
realize that their last myth OF Sc
curity is exploded. But second, the
strategic position Of the Allies, cou-
Piled with their superiority In man.
power, air power and amount OF
equipment, gives them a decided ad.
vantage.
Through the fog OF the battle, the
occasional glimpse we catch must
be interpreted in the Light Of these
fundamentals.

Reused Propaganda

This type OF security" propagan-
da being fed 10 the German people
had to be revised recently. So much
had been said about the strength of
Nazi fortihcations that the leaders
realized the people had developed
what they called 'Maginot mind"
In other words. they had become
treasured to the point Of compla-
cency. Therefore. the more recent
propaganda foreshadowed success
fui landings by the Allies and played
up the second line Of defense.
For instance, il was stated that
the city Of Lyons was fortified to re-
sist operations in case it became
the center OF the conflict Lyons is
200 miles inland).
Thus. the effort was made TO pre-
serve the myth Of security up to the
last moment. AS TO the possibility
Of revolution before desperation
seizes the Germans, that is slight
1t is probable that the Germans
might Gust the Nalis now II they
