This view is based on these factors:
 l. The immediate lack of suffi- cient land masses in the Pacific area for the concentration of large air and ground forces against the Japanese homeland.
 2. The difficult problem of shift ing men, supplies and equipment from the European to the Pacific theater, a task which may con- sume from three to six months.
 3. The uncertainty of Soviet Russia's position.
 4. The need for time to train British and American forces, par ticularly sea and air, for the kind of point operations needed in the Pacific and the retraining of Amer ican troops transferred from Europe to changed combat conditions.
 Russia Would Help
 The one factor that might bring to a speedier conclusion the war against Japan, in the experts opin- ion, is Soviet Russia. If Russia de- cides to participate actively with its air and ground forces against Jap anese military might concentrated in Manchuria and Korea, decision could come in relatively short time
 On the other hand, if the Rus sians decide on a hands-off policy but grant air bases for the use O. Americans in Siberia, it will have comparatively little effect in speed ing the end. In the first place American military authorities sec little advantage in Siberian ail bases. Such bases would be ever more difficult to supply than those already in American possession ir the Pacific.
 Thus, because of the uncertainty of Russia's position, American strat- egy for the destruction Of Japan'S military power remains essentially what it has been through all of 1944 This, in brief, calls for pusf across the Pacific through the Phil ippines to the China coast Once Chinese ports become available, i would be possible not only to concen' trate American mobile forces on th' China mainland to meet the grea bulk of Japan'S land army, but tt

 Development of amphibious ve- }icles profoundly affected the strategy and the outcome of the war. Heretofore amphibious land- ings were considered the most dif- fcult sort of military operation. DeveIopment of landing craft with end gates, together with self-pro- pelled weapons and motor trans port, permitted landing of vast forces at high speed across both salt and fresh water
 Eenemy Had to Deploy
 The Allies actually turned their ability to land thus into an ac- vantage. The enemy was forced to deploy forces along all threatened coastlines in comparatively thin lines. The Allies proved both in the Atlantic and Pacific that they could concentrate far greater forces at chosen points by water than the enemy could by land within the | interval that such movements could be detected and countered at the beaches.
 Whole armies became airborne. including transport, artillery and engineering equipment. achieving the maximum in mobility.
 Radio detection and automatic fire control brought Important strategic and tactical changes. Radar warned of the approach or enemy warships and planes, while guns were automatically trained on the basis of radio or visual observa- tion of enemy targets. elaborate machines completing all the variable factors far more swiftly than pos | sible to the human mind. Various new and ingenious wea- pons and auxiliary devices resulted from new technological develop ments Anti-tank and anti-person- nel mines were used on land, while magnetic and sonic mines appeared at sea. The magnetic mine, set OH by the magnetism of steel ship, was countered by demagnetizing the ships with giant electric coils. When the Allies developed electric devices to detect metal land mines the Germans made them of plastic and wood. Then the Allies made huge chain fails the big rollers operating ahead of tanks to beat paths through minefields.

him bum when he went there after his mother died. Hitler lived in flophouse.
 Workers despised him. He had an almost femininely smooth white skin and soft, muscleless limbs and arms, with caved-in chest. They laugh at vague arguments about Germany which he could not back up, at his picture of a Germany in which he would not be laborer or a vagabond, so he began to read facts to back up his theories.
 Dangerous Fanatic
 During World War I, Hitler Joined the Bavarian army, swear ing allegiance to Germany's cause. Officers said he gloried in blood shed, and they awarded him an Iron Cross for bravery. But they refused to give him commission. He was termed a dangerous fana- tic"
 Hitler was beaten when Ger many fell. He went as a spy for the Reichswehr to meeting of six men fighting for anti -Semltism and stayed to become the seventh member. beginning his whole race theory which gave rise to one oi the greatest waves of persecution in history.
 By 1923, the little man who would not eat meat, drink beer anc who rejected women, had harangueo himself into leadership of Deutsches Arbeiter Partei, recognized force in Munich.

Meanwhile, the American aerial destruction of Japan's industrial centers, concentrated largely on Kyushu, southernmost of the en- emy's home islands, will continue at an accelerating pace. At the same time, the tremendous U. s. fleet, augmented by elements of the Brit ish Navy, will continue to seek out Japanese fleet for a showdown bat tie. The enemy fleet must be de- stroyed, military experts agree, if Japanese contact with its stolen empire is to be broken.
 The destruction of Japan's in- dustry and fleet, in the opinion of Adm. Chester w. Ninitz, U. s. Navy boss in the Pacific, might be enough to force the enemy to surrender. But this view is not shared by other mil itary authorities, notably Gen. Doug las Macarthur, who believes the Japanese army must be destroyed first.
