 INTO ACTON ON NEW FRONT.

Unified Stdtes Rejects Red Plan-StaIIs for PoI-

WASHINGTON, April 2.-United States diplomats are wohking at top speed to avoid showdown with Russia over Polish participation in the San Francisco United Nations controversy.
 High officials here expressed the hope the Polish National Unity Government agreed upon at Yalta may be set up in time to resolve the controversy.
 Should it appear in the next few days this hope may be transformed into probability with additional time for opening of the conference, it is likely opening date at San Francisco will be delayed two or three weeks.
 The United States is placed in the embarrassing position of having re- jected the Soviet request for partic- ipation by the Soviet sponsored War saw Government, hoping for the Big Three councils entrance.

Tightening Grip Made Around Nazis-Armored

PARIS, April 2.-The British Sec ond Army drive to the northeast threatened to trap virtually all the German Army group H, in Holland, to reduce the Wehrmacht's fighting force on the western front. Already German Army Group B, trapped in the Ruhr, runs up to 100000 Ger mans, as these armies are thrashing about in the tightening iron grip of the American First and Ninth Ar mics in the Ruhr.
 The Third Army, meanwhile, fought into Kassel and Fulda, and sent armored spearheads probing to within 155 miles of Berlin and 198 miles from the Russian lines, as the drive to bisect Germany reached within 95 miles of Leipzig.
 General Omar Bradley sent tank columns far beyond both Kassel and Fulda, with one armored column reaching within 155 miles of Ber- lin at point three miles northeast of Eisenach, at the northwest edge of the famous Thuringian Forest.
 At that point Gen. Patton's army is close to barring access of enemy troops in the north from the Bav- arian Alps, where Hitler may be preparing for last stand

The W ashinqton Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON ct. Col Robert s. Allen now on active service with the Army.N

WASHINGTON-Army Air Force insiders are literally tearing their hair over Army plans which after the war contemplate a big ground force and a relatively small Air Corps. It looks as if the mistake of the early part of this war, when both Jap and German planes romped all over the Allies, might be repeated.
 It is being kept top-drawer secret, but Army planners already have mapped out the relative size of the air force after the war. And it is to go back to about the same strength as the Air corps in 1936-about 18sp00 men.
 Simultaneously, ground force Army men are promoting the idea of a huge land army, and are pushing the idea of time con- scription. Under Secretary of War Patterson is one of those who favor putting through a Conscrip- ton Bill now, apparently with the idea that the bill would not pass after the war .s4~s
 Air experts meanwhile point out privately that if we are to prevent war under the United Nations se- curity plan, we will need not big land army, but fast, powerful air force which can get to any trouble spot in hurry. Also if this nation should be attacked, the first line of defense, they say, is the air, then the Navy-both of which would give time to mobilize a land army.
 Finally the air experts point out that future development of the rocket bomb will be such that land armies may not be important in the initial stages of a war. It will be the nation which has rockets and planes most efficiently mobi- lized at the start of a war which probably can win. They say the time will not be far off when rocket

GUAM, April 2--Second Division American Doughboys and Marines landed on Okinawa Island. the southern gateway to the Japanese homeland, Easter Sunday morning, quickly secured eight miles Of beaches, and by nightfall had pushed inland to depth of three miles at some points.
 Undoubtedly surprised as to the place of invasion, the 60,o00 to 80,- 900 Japanese defenders of Okinawa, offered only desultory resistance through the day, and American casualties were surprisingly light. 1 Landings were made a few miles north of Naha, capital city on western Okinawa, while a pre- invasion heavy bombardment had been made on the west coast.
 Buckner In Command
 Possibly 100000 American troops forming the new U. S. Tenth Army under It. Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner, Jr., landed against only small arms fire on beaches, while later the Nipponese sporadically dropped some mortar artillery fire on the beach areas, but their guns were silenced by supporting war ships gunfire or carrier planes bombs.
 Quick Landing Made
 The beachheads were secured so quickly landing of supplies was begun a few hours after the first troops rushed ashore through the coral reefs and shell-torn sea walls.
 Admiral Chester w. Nimitz an- nounced in his second communique the campaign is indicative of thorough naturalization of airfields from Honshu through the Ryukyus to Formosa, from which the enemy might have launched an aerial counter offensive. Flagship dis patches reported only one small aerial raid was made on IA ships in the amphibious operation, and four Japanese planes were downed.
 JAPAN'S GRAVE VIEW
 SAN FRANCISCO, April 2--The Jap radio took grave view of the invasion of Okinawa in a broad cast intended for home consump- tion. when it predicted it would be a matter of a short time before the rise or fall of our nation would be decided"
 The broadcast, recorded by the EGG, summarized the steady pro- gress' of American forces since the seizure of Guadalcanal, declaring these preliminary moves always had landings on the Jap mainland as their final objective.
