A Gloomy View of Things
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
am one of the multitude of Ameri-
cans who is shocked at the results of
internationalism In the spectacle of q
destroyed Poland.
Every informed person knows that
the Atlantic Charter is dead and the
Dumbarton Oaks peace plan Is doomed
to failure. How much longer are Amer
ican lives and dollars going to be sacri-
feed in this war of power politics?
Thousands of American fighting men
are dying and being slaughtered on the
battlefields Of the world-and for what?
Poland is symbol-and today Poland
lies PROSTATE before us. 1t is evident
that the high purposes for which We
are supposed to be waging this war have
been scrapped in favor of power politics
Further, it is demonstrated that the
abandonment of our splendid isola-
tionism" Is a tragic mistake and our
continued participation in a war Of un-
certain character Is no longer justified
The grave responsibility for decision
in this connection rests with members
of Congress and many Of us are hopeful
that our elected representatives will be
guided by the thought that all genuine
Americans are opposed to the futile sac
rifice Of American lives in war of
doubtful purposes.

Cleanup on Leyte

just two months and one day after
our forces made their initial land
ings on the east coast of Leyte, Gen
eral MacArthur's headquarters has
issued the heartening announce
ment that the campaign on that
island is rapidly drawing to an
end" The communique goes on to
elaborate that "the enemy's cohe-
sion is now completely broken and
he is no longer capable of an in
tegrated defense" While large
numerical forces of Japanese re-
main, these are broken up into
isolated groups. deprived of their
reserve equipment and supplies
which have fallen into our hands.
Drifting into the hills or fleeing to-
ward a small segment of coast line
already blockaded by our Navy pa
trolls, the japanese remnants on
Leyte are hopelessly trapped and
are doomed to speedy annihilation.
Strategically, the Leyte battle is
over. Tactically, only the final
mopping-up stage remains.
Thus ends campaign remark
able in several respects. The rapid
progress OF our first landings led
our high command to anticipate a
quick conquest of the island, then
garrisoned by little more than
10000 enemy troops. But General
Yamashita. the Japanese comman-
der in the Philippines. elected to
make Leyte a supreme test of
strength. To this end he risked the
major portion of the Japanese battle
fleet in a gamble that ended disas-
trously, and on top of that he in
CURED fresh naval losses and the
drowning of some 10000 army re-
Inducements in desperate attempts
to bolster the land defense. The up
shot was that, by the end of the first
month Of the campaign, some 10000
japanese soldiers were strongly
intrenched in the northwestern
corner of the island, their resistance
being aided by a series of typhoons
which begged down our attacks,
drowned out our new airf1elds and
gravely handicapped our land COM
munications.
This temporary stalemate was
broken by our brilliant surprise
landing at the japanese base port
of Ormoc which isolated the main
body of the enemy in the valley to
the northward. On that open ter
rain the japanese were unable to
Withstand our superior artillery and
other mechanized equipment, and
they were rapidly crushed in a
resistless pincers movement. Fully
$4,000 men have already perished
on Leyte. and the rate of killings
will henceforth be accelerated. The
ultimate total of japanese losses
should considerably exceed 100000.
Yamashita has blocked us on Leyte
for a trifle over two months, but
to do this he has sacrificed the
cream of Japan's navy and has
denuded the Central Philippines of
troops. The logical inference is that
Japan's hold on the archipelago will
soon be confined to Luzon in the
north and a precarious tenure on
isolated Mindanao in the far south.
Yamashita's Leyte strategy looks
very much like q bad flop.

German Munpower

Inc most d1Sconcerting thing
about the current German counter
offensive into Luxembourg and Bel
GUM is not the operation itself, but
its implications as to the resources
in trained troops and good equip
ment which are still at the disposal
Of the German high command.
While not impossible, it is extreme
ly unlikely that so capable a general
as Won Runstedt is gambling every
thing he has on a single blow, with
the likelihood of utter collapse if it
fails. The safer assumption is that
he is acting on what military ex-
perts call Calculated risk" which
implies that he has a strategical,
alternative even though his plan
miscarries. That, in turn, implies
that he has not put all his eggs in
one basket; in other words, that he
still has strategic reserves available
to parry Allied counterblows on
other sections of the front. But such
reserves must consist of good troops,
capable OF maneuver, just as the
forces engaged in the current Of
fensive must be of high-grade quail
ity.
Where does all this good combat
material come from? It has been
widely assumed in this country that
very little of it remained after the
disasters of last summer, first on the
eastern and then on the western
fronts. That assumption was based
largely on the reported totals of
German losses. However, no de-
tailed analysis of those losses has
ever been made public, and a care
full study of German methods in
both campaigns tends to show that
their high command Systematically
saved elite units even at the sacri-
flee of enormous numbers of lower
grade troops. Furthermore, con-
siderable proportion of those "ex-
pendables" were not Germans but
foreigners of all kinds. enticed or
constrained to serve as soldiers un-
der German leadership and direc-
ton. There is further evidence that
the better material has been again
screened and segregated in new elite
units, supplemented by the most
promising material from the total
mobilization of German manpower
that occurred last summer. The up
shot of all this is the building up of
reinforced "armies of maneuver"
while the immensely strong defense
systems, both east and west, are
being manned and held by second
grade and even third-grade troops.
which. incidentally, are being trained
and toughened by actual campaign
experience.
Over and above all this technical
procedure is the psychological inn
ponderable known as morale"
There can be no doubt that Ill

apparently wants right of passage per-
manently and under all circumstances.
With that, of course, he completely
discounts the world organization pro-
posed at Dumbarton Oaks. In case of
the necessity for Intervention in Ger
many arising, it would come before the
council who would decide whether a
threat existed and in case it did, would
take mutual action.
Poland would then have to abide by
the decision, and Russia would have the
right OF passage. Should, however, the
security council decide there was no
reason for dispatching any army into
central Europe, Russia would be re-
strained. and Poland have the right to
refuse passage.
1t is precisely for such emergencies
that world organization with power
to act is contemplated But the pro-
posed Russian solution for Poland
rules Poland out of both the RESPONSE
bIlities and benefits of a world organi-
zation.
II Polish government, servile to
Russia, takes the responsibility of de-
taching from the Reich the territory
east Of the Oder and driving out the
indigenous German population. Russia
is assured of hostility between Germany
and Poland for endless time. Such a
defiance OF every national principle, ac-
companied with such dealing with the
native population, is the sort of thing
that is never forgotten. Poland never
would be able to hold this territory
without constantly alert Russia.
Furthermore, If France takes the
Rhlnelands, in similar violation of every
national principle, with the similar
result OF permanent hostility between
herself and any future Germany, she
also will depend on Russian support
forever. If the German Rhenish popu-
lation is evacuated, France is biologically
too weak to repopulate it, and if not
evacuated the German population will
be continual tester inside France,
weakening the national body.
*
A Germany in such position will fall
wholly into the orbit of the Soviet Union.
One day British and American armies
will be withdrawn from Europe. One
immense army will remain on the Euro
pean mainland-the Russian. From a
military viewpoint it will have a direct
frontier on Germany, since it will have
a helpless Poland. 1t will have an
alliance with France, in which Russia is
overwhelmingly dominant. Every future
German statesman will have to keep this
fact in mind In every decision, internal
and external. Germany will be as de-
pendent on Russia as Finland.

Community Christmas Tree

In 1923 some of President Cool
idge's admirers sent him a huge
Christmas tree from Vermont. It
was erected on the Capitol grounds
and strung with tinsel and colored
lights and on Christmas eve it be-
came the center of Washington's
first community tree celebration, an
annual affair ever since. In 1924
the American Forestry Association
having initiated a campaign for liv-
ing Christmas trees, fine specimen
was planted in Sherman Square,
south of the Treasury, and the COM
munity celebration was held there
until the crowds became too large
for the location. Two more trees
were planted in Lafayette Park, but
did not flourish, and for a couple of
years the celebration was held on
the Ellipse, with a tree temporarily
transplanted and then moved away
In 1941 the President suggested that
the south lawn of the White House
be utilized, and two trees were
planted there for use on alternate
years.
There is an appealing symbolism
in the ceremony and for a number
of years the President has attended
and made it an occasion for a mes
sage to the Nation. The radio united
millions of American homes for
brief period on Christmas eve, lis
tening to the President, the Marine
Band and men and women singing.
This year the affair will be more
local in character. The President
will not be there. But there are many
who will, for the simple ceremony is
a moving spectacle and provides an
opportunity, in the mass singing of
some of the old carols, for spiritual
reunion with those who will not be
at home this Christmas
