more clearly than we do. We fee
ashamed of admitting 1t for fea1
that the admission would be taker
as a sign of weakness. But actu-
ally realistic acceptance Of an OBJ
vious fact would at least convince
our allies that we had come down
from Cloud Cuckooland and have oul
feet on solid ground.
Let us remind ourselves Of a few
simple strategic facts. In q wal
against America, these islands woule
be starved into submission within
a few months and the common.
wealth would disintegrate. In wal
against Russia, nothing could delay
the advance Of the Red Army te
the Atlantic coast. Within few
weeks all our main ports and cities
would be under continuous rocket
fire. If the Russians used the atom
ic bomb that would merely speed UP
the destruction Of our war potential
and the withdrawal Of the Govern
ment to Ottowa"
mo European nation will be any
safer for taking shelter in either
an anti-American or an anti-Rus-
sian bloc. The security of each
and all of us depends on preventing
the division of Europe into exclusive
spheres Of influence"
This Is. Of course, q strictly mi

U.s. British Ties Not Kdestrucible

certain that there would be agree
ment on these tariff reductions.
AFTER dealing with the Russians
for so many months" he remarked
"the Geneva agreements will be
easy"
One reason the British are not
complaining about their present
hard lot is that they know that
other European nations are worse
off than they. The majority Of the
persons I talked with showed nc
particular love for the French whom
they regard as politically immature
and somewhat lacking in business
ethics. They realize that France is
much worse of than England and
are willing to help her within their
own limited resources, but, as one
'Englishman expressed it, the French
are not "very tidy in arranging
their affairs. The British are amaz-
lngly tidy, well disciplined and toll

great regard for other driyers-and
policemen.
did not find the bitterness
against the Germans that was SO
evident here in the early years fol-
lowing World War I.
In the '20s the British were rather
condescending to "colonials" and
to Q lesser extent to Americans
The colonials resented this, while
many Americans merely became
more aggressive. This patronisine
attitude Is no longer evident except
to . limited degree h some news
papers and mAgaxssa ..

The nerve center of the amphib-
ious operation on the Taconic was
a marvel of modern communica-
tions systems.
Scores of radio channels enabled
the joint staff to keep in touch with
combat and observation aircraft and
their home fields, with the other
ships of the convoy and with COM
mand posts established on shore
Meanwhile, the ships big radars
were tracking friendly planes and
scanning the sky for hostile ones.
The age and experience level OF
the enlisted men in the maneuver
was low and the present turnover
high. OF less than 1000 who par
ticipated q large per cent will be
back in civilian life a year hence,
personnel experts said.
Too, relatively few amphibious
vessels, developed to high point of
perfection during the war, can be
kept in service.
A Slant on Unifcation
Most of them we're designed and
built under pressure with the idea
their length of service would be
relatively short.
AS result, the upkeep is high
Economy measures and personnel
shortages mean that more and more
of them are being decommissioned.
The Navy also is low on expert
enced noncommissioned officers.
One of them, an old-time chief with
Is years to his credit, was asked
what he thought Of the new unfit
cation.
WELL" he said, "the situation
puts me in mind OF three hungry
tomcats who wake up after a rough
night and find their tails tied to-
gether. They get to glaring at each
other and one Of them says:
"'Boys, maybe we better talk this
situation over before we go around
and around!'"

! Bevan and Food Minister Strachey,
thought before the war.
Commenting on this, Bevan told
me in London last week that there
was danger of anti-American senti-
ment spreading. He deplored 1t as
BELTS a member Of the government.
This sentiment is already evident
in spots because of the Palestine
situation. British soldiers have
been murdered by Jewish terrorists;
American funds have been used to
smuggle Jews into Palestine to the
great embarrassment Of the British;
President Truman, for political
reasons, advocated that 100000
Jews be allowed TO immigrate to
Palestine, yet the United States
Congress has been unwilling to
raise our own quotas to take In
displaced persons, and while we
criticize the British we will accept
no direct responsibility Tor Paies-
tine. These things do not make
for friendship.
Not Bitter Toward Germans
When speaking of the Russians,
British officials indicated little OF
the animosity often shown by Amer
lcan officials. For instance, Harold
Wilson. the 31-year-old president OF
the Board Of Trade, was hopeful
that the $40o, ,oo0, 900 negotiations
with the Soviet, now stalemated,
would be eventually worked out. At
the time I saw him, the Geneva
trade agreements pact had not yet
been concluded 10 Wa virtually

War Games Reveal Thinness Of u. S. Arnnor
Amphibious Assault
Mostly Simulated
or Imaginary
By W. H. Shippen, Jr.

Is the country which perfected
the amphibious assault on the cost
ly beaches of the last war In danger
of losing the art?
The training Exercise Seminole
on the Gulf Coast this month seems
to have raised that question, but
the answer must be supplied by the
public and Congress, rather than
the admirals and generals.
= The boys in the ships, airplanes
and tanks did the best they could
with what they had, yet they were
so few in numbers and so short
Of equipment even for training
assault that the familiar old cry of
too little and too late" might
have applied. This, Of course, would
be the view of observers more i'm
pressed with real than simulated
phases of the maneWer.
Largely Imaginary
Only some 1000 bodies" were
actually mustered for the first large
Army, Navy and Air Force opera
ton since unification, although a
vast amount Of planning was done
by staff officers learning to work
as a team in co-ordinating the ac-
tivities on land, sea and in the
air.
Because Of ship and personnel
shortages the amphibious force in
two conveys of some 25 command,
transport and landing vessels under
Rear Admiral Ralph o. Davis was
forced to assume the presence of
battleships, aircraft carriers, cruisers
and q destroyer screen. The am
phibious force, whose home base Is
Norfolk, had proceeded to Houston,
Tex, to load the tanks, self-pro-
PEELED guns, trucks and personnel of
the I'd Armored Division from Fort
Hood, Tex.
The conveys were day apart as
they pulled out of Houston to pro-
ceed eastward for landings under
simulated assault conditions on the
wide beaches of the Tyndall Field
reservation, some Is miles south
east of Panama City, Fla. The first
elements landed some 600 men,
along with an imaginary infantry
assault division, to seize beach,
head and prepare for the landing Of
the I'd Armored's heavy vehicles
the following day.
First Landings on Schedule
For the purpose of planning and
staff training, it was assumed that
an "aggressor" force had seized most
of Northern Florida from coast to
coast, and could spare one division
and limited air support for the de-
fense of the beaches and the port
of Panama City. The "aggressor"
force actually consisted Of some $50
men who had set up inflated rubber
guns, imaginary pill boxes and road
blocks, and simulated motor trans
port columns.
The Air Force, committed else
where, it was said, was able to fur
nish several squadrons of Jet fighters
and photo-reconnaissan planes.
