MAY RUSSIA HAMMER JAPAN!

Johnny won't sscome marching home"
Immediately, as some Key Westers seem to
think, because of the cessation of hostili-
ties in Europe.
The War Department has announced
that about 10000 Americans will be re-
leased from the services, but added that it
will require a year to process all of them.
However, if you have loved one that has
been fighting in Europe and he chances to
be among those who will not be sent to
the Pacific area, he is likely to return in
d few months, the length of time depend
ing on his release and the availability of
ship OH which to make the trip to this
country
But if your loved one is not released,
he will be given an opportunity to come
home on furlough before leaving for the
Pacific.
Stories have been told about the fight
ing in the Pacific that are at one or the 9TH
II extreme. Some say that the war against
he Japs will be long drawn out, and others
declare it will be over in few months, just
IS soon as the full striking power of the
United States and Great Britain is brought
% bear on the Japs.
Whatwill cut the Pacific conflict down
- about one-half of the time it would take
With only this country and Great Britain
pposing the. Japs. would be Russia's en-
rance into the war. Aside from Russia's
Fighting power, with 100000 men along
The Manchurian front, it is Russia's near
ness to the Jap homeland itself that would
prove of inestimable benefit to Great Brit
ain and the United States
Leaders in this country and Great Brit
ain also have pointed out that the greatest
problem in crushing Japan is the distance
over which supplies and munitions must
be shipped before that country can be ham,
mered into submission. For that reason, let
us hope Russia will join in the hammering
also.

JAPANESE DILEMMA

The invasion OF Japan is expected
both by the japanese and our own high
command. and reports from Tokyo indi-
cate that the new cabinet is seeking des-
pe.ately to mobilize manpower for the de-
iense of the home islands.
The toal military force of Japan has
! zen estimated at 10,5OO,000 including
100000 assault troops, 100000 re-
serves and the balance classified as home
guards.
For the defense of Japan, however,
the enemy has no such force available.
Casualties suffered on the Solomon Islands,
the Marshalls the Carolines the Marianas
and the Philippines total more than AGO.
900 and some 100000 men are helplessly
marooned on by-passed islands. Another
million, it is believed, continue to occupy
unreclaimed areas, such as The Neither
lands East Indies, Malaga, etc
On the Asiatic mainland, in China, the
Japanese have suffered heavy losses and
maintain large army. Together, the Chi
nese venture has claimed around 1000, 900
This leaves about 100000 men for
service in the home islands, but many Of
them are over age and not physically fit for
clacting combat duty.
When the wal began in 1941, the Jap
anese rapidly expanded their empire, trans
porting men to far-away islands and areas.
Now, in 1915, as the defense of the home
islands becomes the paramount necessity
the Japanese, cut off from their islands by
our sea and airiorces, are unable to bring
their forces home and must write off as a
Total loss, so far as home defense is CON
eerned, hundreds of thousands of men now
helplessly marooned

NATIONAL HONOR AT STAKE

The War Department is to be COM
mended for insisting upon strict adherence
to the Geneva Convention, Article IL OF
which provides for a good ration to pris-
oners of war equal in quantity and quality
to that given troops in base camps.
The War Department has interpreted
equal as meaning identical in nutritional
value. It's menus vary from time to time in
accordance with the food shortages in this,
country. A new menu, effective April 2,
Vas drawn up weeks before the capture of
pi ison camps in Europe, which revealed
startling mistreatment of prisoners of war
in Germany.
While there will be many Americans
to.demand retaliation" for German treat
ment Of American prisoners of war, clear
headed Americans will take pride in the
reputation that the United States has as a
law-abiding nation, and will, therefore,
support the War Department in living up
to the terms of such laws as the Geneva
Convention, which this nation has solemnly
accepted
The same question has arisen in Great
n itain,' where the War Secretary, Sir
James Grigg told the House of Commons
that he did not believe Germany was car
rvihg out the terms of the Convention and
that the Japanese "have never made the
slightest attempt to observe it,
The War Secretary pointed out, how
'er, that he did not believe that the House
Of Commons wished the government to imi-
tate Germany or Japan in the reputation
o. the Geneva Convention.

RisoIetto Third

IT WAS a colorful production
of Verdi's "Rigoletto," which the
Philadelphia La Scala Opera Com
pany offered for its third pre-
sentation OF the week last night
in Masonic Auditorium.
While the audience was not
quite a complete sell-out, It made
up i'm enthusiasm, for what il
lacked in capacity numbers.
Chief interest was in the APP
pearance of Lawrence Tibbett as
the hunch-backed Jester, a role
in which he has received so much
acclaim.
Tibbett created quite a senSa-
ton with his performance. which
was a great one from the acting
standpoint. although he was some

FINE ACTING
His third act was magnificently
delivered and he came through
with flying colorS in the finale,
