inability to go right on through

Closing In of US there is
On Hitler again the type
and Japan Of activi y
which shows
that the withdrawal from Cas-
sino and the stalemate at Anzio
were only forerunners of bigger
efforts to come. At this writing
General Mark Clark's offensive
from Anzio promises to throw
the Germans into utter confus-
ion and hasty retreat. The Sec
ond Front draws neare and
nearer day by day and the in
creasing weight of our bombing
is giving Marshal Rommel the
jitters lest the reputation he
built up in Africa be ruined in
the first few days of the impend-
ing invasion.
On the Eastern front there is
that type Of inaction which pre-
sages some mighty blows. It is,
perhaps, the all over strategy
to have the big invasion from
England coincide with a fresh
and powerful offensive on the
part Of the Russians.
II Is q sad plight into which
the small neutral nations in
Europe have been placed and
dread one for Germany's satel-
lite allies. Romania, Bulgaria,
and Hungary don't want to stay
in the conflict and yet they can
not get out. Turkeys oppor-
tunity to win for herself a po-
sition in the future planning
seems to have almost passed.
