Navy Wants 10000
Officers

THE NAVY wants qualified re-
serves and temporary officers
to consider transfer to the regular
Navy which will need, it is be-
lieved, an additional 10000 officers.
Then men who go into regular
service will be expected to serve
not less than 25 years and are
promised additional training to
place them on an equal footing
with regular officers, including
Annapolis graduates, and equal
opportunities for future promotion.
While the exact size of the
peace-time Navy will not be known
until Congress passes necessary leg
islation the general idea is that
something like a two-ocean orga-
nization will become permanent,
with the bulk of the forces assigned
to the Pacific.

tremendous Importance in naval
and aerial warfare. The extensive
assistance that it gave to our fight
ing men provided decisive margin
of superiority in combat.
This is only a part of the serv-
ice that radar performed and the
full story is not yet revealed.
Even so, it is foolish to ascribe
victory to any single weapon or
accessory. The fighting bravery of
men in uniform was the key asset
of our nation at war. 1t was the
factor that beat the U-boats, the
luftwaffe, the kamikaze and every
thing else that the enemy pos
sessed.

What Won The War?

RADAR performed wonderfully
and was one of the most val
liable instruments in the service of
our armed forces but there is moth
ing to be gained by exaggerating
its role.
For example, the assertion has
been made that without radar we
would have lost the anti-submar-
inc campaign. This might be a
matter of argument If it were not
for the fact that in World War |
we won q similar contest without
radar.
So far as submarines are con-
cerned the convoy system, based
upon adequate protection from
ships moving in packs, broke the
back of the U-boat campaign in
both wars. The heavy losses suf-
fered in the early days Of both
struggles were due to lack of de-
stroyers and escort ships.
The amazing ability ofgradar to
pick up enemy vessels and locate
them undoubtedly made our task
easier. Moreover the device was of

increase of IL per cent, while auto

War Needs Continue

DESPITE the end of warfare with
Japan, the nation is not yet
through with the shortages that
have engaged our attention in the
past. 1t is announced that the
salvage campaigns to save waste
paper, tin and fats will be con-
tinued.
In addition, the Treasury De-
partment has announced a Victory
Loan drive, the eighth in the bond
campaigns which, will get underway
early in October. 1t will give every
American an opportunity to assist
the Government in preparing for
the difficult days ahead.
Every citizen of this county
should realize that it is just as
important to cooperate with our
Government in these undertakings
as it ever was. The end of fight
ing does not automatically produce
a surplus of goods or stop the
spending of money for the war
effort. Consequently, the continued
cooperation of every loyal Amer
lean is still required.

Victory Complete

I'HE IDEA that the United States
fought the great war for the
purpose of establishing the four
freedoms, of democracy, or any
thing else, is in for a jolt.
None of them appear to be in
existence in Spain, in Africa, in
India, in China and a few other
wayside areas. If the purpose of
the warfare was to establish them
throughout the world we have no
business stopping the war.
OF course, it is plain that we
went to war because we were at
tackled and that we fought in self
defense and for no other reason
whatever. After all, these reasons
justify our fighting and the de-
feat of those who attacked us and
threatened to enslave the world
makes victory that has come COM
plete and overwhelming.

Know. How And
Profits

THE UNITED STATES govern
ment has billions of dollars
worth of surplus goods, left over
as result of the sudden ending Of
the war with Japan.
Obviously, the government will
sell the surplus. This will sal
wage something for application
upon the national debt and be
wiser than holding the stuff until
it is worthless.
This much is generally agreed
upon. There is difference Of opin-
ion. however, as to how the gov
eminent should do the selling and
as to who should get the profits
There are staunch defenders OF
private enterprise who insist that
the sale be handled by business
men. with the ''know how" who
will get most of the profits.
