Successes by Sea
Cincinnati Enquirer

How completely the German submarine campaign
has failed brought out clearly in the recent report
of the First Lord of the British Admiralty to the
House of Commons in London Allied losses are less
than one in 1000 in the second half OF l943, the
statement declared This in spite of the long supply
lines which Britain and the United States are main
tanning TO all parts of the world
AT the same time Admiral Chester Nmitz, in
Washington fol conferences said Allied submarines
are playing an increasing important part in the fight
against Japan. The toll of enemy shipping to date
has been heavy Our underseas fleet is increasing in
size and is keeping up with its schedule of snkings
in spite of the fact that the number OF available
targets has materially decreased the Admiral noted
He warned however that the Jap sub still is very
real and important danger. 1t will become greater
as our own supply lines lengthen
This war, more than any conflict in history, is
preponderantly maritime. SO far as Europe Is con-
cerned, not much of the fighting has been between
naval units. But our every land move has depended
upon oceanic transport Cermanys inability to cripple
seriously that transportation system spelled her doom.
She even has been unable to prevent the flow OF
supplies and materials to Russia, although the Muir
mansk route obviously has been vulnerable to NaA
power stationed in Norway.
In Japan naval strength has been great factor
Not only have our combined navies guarded and
protected supply lines as they have done in the west
but they have won major battles as we'll They VIII
be an increasingly important factor as we move
toward China for the establishment of land bases.
It would be a mistake to believe that have
won the battle against Japanese underseas craft
although it is probable that the German sub will no
longer be factor in the European conflict But in
the Pacific it is different The Jap underwater fleet
has been strengthened while the German has
suffered both direct and indirect losses. And as Ad-
miral Nmitz says with the extending of our supply
lines we draw to Jap attack and defense
bases; farther from Distances which the
Allies faced in the Atlantic were never SO tremendous

There is a powerful planetary
government today with benefic as
poets dominating. The morning
hours are favorable for signing
contracts and starting constructive
projects.
HEART AND HOME: This is a
day of promise for women who seek
positions or promotions. Under
this sway young and old should be
able to make good impressions upon
all with whom they come in con-
TACT.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Millions
of men and women in the service
are currently relieved of financial
responsibilities but the seers fore
see danger of postwar inertia in
business matters Many who return
to civil life and its economic prob
lens will be severely tested. Spec
ial provision should be made for
difficult readjustments.
NATIONAL ISSUES: Public
health will be of general concern
as Spring days reveal the strain Of
the Winter of war. Breakdowns
and nervous maladies will be nu-
merous. The seers warn that rest
and recreation should not be over
looked because of need OF man
power.

THE DENIAL SCORE CARD

Just for amusement, the already
overworked girls in my office have
got up a list of fairly important
Merry Go-Round stories which
were Indignantly, categorically, We
hemently denied but later turned
out to be true. Here they are:
November, 1943-General Patton
slapping incident officially denied
by Army. Later admitted.
January, l943-Faulty inspection
of shells at ST. Louis plant denied
by the Army Despite the denial,
a grand jury indicted ten people for
this war fraud-though it took
eleven months to do it.
September, 1910 = The Attorney
General denied the story regarding
the plane crash of FBI agents and
the late Senator Lundeen, some of
whose speeches were being written
by Nazi agent George Sylvester
Vierick Senators Wheeler and
Bennett Clark also denounced this
story on the Senate floor, while
Mrs. Lundeen threatened to sue for
libel. However, Vierick is now in
jail, convicted in part for writing
Senator Lundeen's speeches.
June, 1889 - First revelation of
Louisiana scandals, involving Gov
ernon Leche, Democratic National
Committeeman Seymour Weiss and
President j. NJ Smith of Louisiana
State University, was denied. All
later served Jail sentences.

reported to have stopped the Nays

Later, Secretary Knox issued g

Latin America and obviously knew
what they were talking about-even
then. the President came out in his
February % speech, unequiyocaliy
denying that there had been losses
worth worrying about at Pearl
Harbor.
With lot of people, this only
undermined confidence in future
statements by Roosevelt and his Ad-

confidence can be even more serious
than losing battleships.
