Eden Says Nozis
Are MurdererS

ceived partly from prisoners subse-
uuently repatriated and showed that
the captives were not shot while
trying to escape frCm the camp or
resisting arrest. He identified the
prison site as 'Stalag Luft Third,
apparently an air camp.
The men were taken to Gestapo
controlled prison. Eden explained,
and then removed in small parties
and shot.
His majesty's government will
never cease its efforts to collect
evidence identifying all those re-
sponsible, and is firmly resolved
that these foul criminals shall be
tracked down to tie last man and,
when the war is over, will be
Brought to exemplary justice" Eden
said.
The foreign secretary disclosed
tlat the official German eXplana-
ton received through protecting
POWER claimed that a number Of
mass escapes involving several thou
and men from camps throughout
Germany during March lad been
Systematically prepared partly by
the general staffs of the Allies
The Germans alcc charged, Eden
said, that the escapes had both
military and political objectiveS,
and hence gave specially severe
orders" to deal with them.
The government feels obliged to
declare" Eden asserted, that the
explanation now put forward by the
German government is in fact q
confession of an odiouS crime
against the laws and conventions
of war.
mo orders at any time have been
given to British prisoners of wal
to take part, in event of escape, in
any subverSive action as the Ger
man government alleges. All thece
officers knew the futility of at
tempting resistance if arrested"

The ONE-TWO PUNCH

Jacksonville RegiSter-Pala alaronan)
If we had been told before the lnVa-
sion of Europe that news from that area
would be crowded out of the headlines,
at least temporarily. less than 10 days
after the first landings, we would have
said, "Preposterous!
But it has happened.
The dramatic events that suddenly eX-
ploded on the other side OF the world
have taken the spotlight for the time,
Our new sky Super Fortresses have rock
ed Japan with giant bundles OF dyna-
mite, and American troops have swarm
ed ashore on the Maranas islands only
1900 miles from Tokyo.
In the parlance of the boxing world
this might be called the one-two punch.
Our European invasion was smash to
the axis chin, and our Pacific blow was
a folloWup to the midSectiOn.
It is reasonable to believe that our bold
landings right in Tojos front yard took
the Japs by surprise. With all eyes on
Europe, we imagine that the Japs, like
most of us. expected the Pacific to be
quiet for a while.
Secretary of War Stimson declared
that no part of the japanese homeland
is now safe from the attack of our super
skybirds. With flying range that OBJ
viously must exceed 1000 miles, these
B-29's have introduced new phase OF
warfare that is truly global in its scope.
Most of the facts about the new sky
monster known as the B29 which is
scheduled for more flights over Japan
are closely guarded secrets of the United
States war department, but enough in
formation has been revealed to give a
pretty good idea of the size and per-
formance of this wonder plane.
Roughly, it is half again as large and
twice as heavy as the Flying Fortress
and the LiberatOr 1t has wing span
of l41 feet, is 90 feet long and stands
27 feet high. Its four engines are nearly
twice as powerful as the Fortress-gen-
earting 2200 horsepower each. 1t is de-
signed to travel at heights around 10000
feet, and at speed that would challenge
our fast fighter planes. 1t carries crew
of | ] men and a much heavier bomb load
than the Fortress and it bristles with 50
caliber machine guns and 20 nm. can
non. The plane was first conceived back
in early 1910 and had it's first flight in
September of 1912. Since then it has
had more than 5000 hours of tests
1t has been long time since Decem-
Der 7, 1941. It may yet be long time
before the November 18th of World War
II. But it is apparent that our two and
half years of steady toll along the
comeback trail in the Pacific will now
begin to pay off in real dividends.
Tojo, the handwriting is on the wall
and in the sky-and on the sea. We're
coming,

Jap SUPREMACY IN CHINA
MUST BE BROKEN

Despite the tenacity of the Chinese
and occasional set-backs they have given
the Nips. it remains a strategic TACT that
Japan arms still hold the upper hand IN
China. True, in five years they have not
been able to knock China out, nor per-
haps not in five years more. But until
Chang can start the JapS running ana
keep them on the run, the mllltarlstS OF
japan can keep their people believing IN
ultimate victory Defeat in China, or the
start of Chinese supremacy would yield
a tremendous influence against the pres
ent warning regime in Tokyo and similar
ly most certainly would speed the allied
victory in the Pacific Japan definitely
figures on China as the conversions OF Its
Asiatic dominion.
In the progress of the Japanese in
China. unfortunately there is that big
contributing factor-Russla at peace with
Japan. The Chinese puzzle goes further
back than 1889 when Britain started
. declaring war on the axis; further PACK
than the Inauguration of the Lend-LeaSe
program. But it has been more OF
puzzle since these two events NOW, at
this very moment when Macarthur ana
Nimitz are pressing their relentless cam
paign toward Tokyo, it appears clearly
logical that China should have an up
surge of aid from Britain and the United
States in the way of war equipment.
Strategists ponder over the failure or
inability of routing the Japs in China
far enough east to permit establishment
of allied air bases at close enough points
for land launched planes to make direct
raids on Japan's homeland. Sea-borne
nlanes can not strike continuous blows
at Tokyo until the enemy's surface yes
sells are wiped out. Tremendous headway
has been made on that score but there
still is a formidable sea threat rom
Japan.
There is the element of sentiment in
giving China more aid in guns and planes
and other equipment, but that is not the
main call China is an ally; 1t Is good
war business to make her as nearly as
possible, as strong as the other United
Nations.
With japan hopelessly reduced in Chi
ma. there are many who believe the morale
of that axis people would go to smash
There is of course, another angle. If
Japan continues to hang on because OF
her success in China, the finale will come
only by complete destruction of all her
military strength both in men and mate
riel In that case China is the bait, and,
of course China can take it.
Another back-breaking blow to Japan
would be for Britain to move in with her
fleet in the Indian ocean and begin to
get back Singapore and Hongkong
In the meantime strategists are guess
ing whether the nips will risk another go
in naval battle. She has been badly
hurt in the last weeks engagements in
the Marianas and definitely in the clash
with the carrier-bOrne planes We are
making headway in that direction, but
those hopeful of an early crushing blow
should consider the tremendous land
area where the Rising Sun still is to be
reckoned with before defeat.
