With the average soldier eating about five and a half pounds of food
every day, the Army buys about 15000 tons of food daily at a cost of

goes.
OPINION OF A FIGHTER
“It is foolish to say that the battleship, the aircraft carrier, the
airplane, or anything else is the one thing that will win the war,” de-
clares Lieutenant Harold H. Larsen, Commander of the Navy's famous
Torpedo Squadron 8.
The Lieutenant, now on leave in this country, explains that “it's the
combination of all that will win" and adds that “the cooperation of
the Army, Navy and Marines in the Pacific is excellent.”
This is the report of the naval officer who was in action at Midway
and has seen four months of action off Guadalcanal since last Septem-
ber. In twenty-seven attacks against Japanese ships and ground posi-
tions, the squadron has lost only one plane and not a single pilot, In nine
torpedo attacks, it has hit every type of Japanese ship from battieship
to destroyer, although, he admits, the Japanese “threw a lot of lead at
It might be a good idea to get a certified copy of the Lieutenant's in-
terview for distribution among the arm-chair and typewriter strategists
who are always telling us how the war should be won and insisting upon
a unified command.
FIVE BROTHERS LOST ON ONE SHIP
The heaviest blow suffered by any single American family since
Pearl Harbor, and probably in our naval history, is that experienced by
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas 8. Sullivan, of Waterloo, Iowa, who lost five sons
when the Cruiser Juneau went down in the blazing battle off Guadal-
canal,
The brothers, it is reported. joined the Navy with the provision that
they not be separated, Navy officials point out that this violated estab.
lished policy which divides members of families in wartime service, The
idea is to prevent wholesale grief for any family,
, The brothers are reported “missing in action” but the possibility
exists that one or more of them may have reached an isolated beach fol-
lowing the sinking of their ship in November. Certainly, every American
hopes 50.
SAY JAPS MAY FEIGN DEFEAT
We have expressed some doubt about the correctness of the predic.
tion of former American Ambassador Joseph C. Grew that the Japanese
would fight to the last man. If a sufficient amount of hot lead is thrown
at the Japs they will do what other soldiers have done, quit fighting,
The other day. in a public address, the Ambassador, repeating his
view that the Japanese will not crack, points out that this does not
mean that “the Japanese will stand up to be shot down to the last man
when some other alternative presents itself, such as running away to
fight another day.”
Thereupon, he warns, the Japanese may give way and simulate de-
feat, hoping that their adversaries will drop their guard, permitting a
lightning attack to destroy them. This, he says, is the tactics of Jujitsu.
Mr. Grew does not believe that our military and naval leaders will be
fooled but he is afraid that the people in this country might be misled
by a fake reorganization of government in Japan and thereby induced
to accept an inconclusive peace, which would fall to protect us against
another Japanese attack.

A WEEK OF
THE WAR
Shortly after the White House
announcement of the President's
stopover In Liberia on his way home
from the Casablanca conferences,
an official communique from Rio de
Janeiro disclosed that the President
had also stopped in Natal for a con-
ference with President Vargas of
Brazil, The visit to Liberia was
made to pay respects to President |
Edwin Barclay, to review a large de- |
tachment of American Negro troops,
and to Inspect the large Firestone
rubber plantation. The conference
at Natal brought together the presi-
dents of the two largest American
republics, the United States and
Brazil
Although, according to White
House secretary Early, the Story of
the Casablanca conferences Is com-
plete, “so far as it can be told at
the present time,” subsequent chap-
ters undoubtedly will be written as
events unfold. Secretary of State
Hull told reporters that even the
State Department has not yet learn.

about the political situation in North
Africa
Lend - Lease.
Testifying before the House For-
eign Affairs Committee, Lend-Lease
Administrator Stettinius reaffirmed
the lend-lease principle--"the prin-
ciple of total cooperation among
nations In the waging of war" -—as
the only one on which a war of al-
Hance can successfully be waged
The question, he said, is not whether
we should continue to send supplies
to our allies, but why have we not
sent more. Lend-Lease supplies to
China, for example, are getting
through in pitifully small amounts
in terms of what China needs, not
nearly all that we would have liked
to have supplied
“Lend-Lease,” Mr. Stettinius said,
“is not a loan of money. Nor has it
ever been an act of charity. The
lend-lease program of providing the
goods and services to nations resis-
ting the Axis aggressors was under-
taken for the defense of this coun-
try and has been carried out in the
interests of the people of the United
States.” I'he cumulative value of
U. 8. lend-lease ald from March 11,
1941 (date of its inception) to Dec-
ember 31, 19042, was $8,253.000,000-
79 per cent of this for goods, 21 per
cent for services. And about 90 per
cent of the goods—valued at almost
$6,000.000,000—has been shipped.
One of the greatest achievements
of lend-lease has been its help in
making the British Isles an impreg
nable base for offensive operations
A large part of the North African
campaign was launched from Bri-
tain and so were the campaigns in
the Middle East, Italian Africa, Sy-
rin, Madagascar.
i A few facts on
lease: the United Kingdom from
May to November supplied U. 8
forces in the United Kingdom with
materials (other than construction
materials) which would have taken
1,200,000 ship tons if shipped from
this country; Australia and New
Zealand, under reciprocal lend-lease
are supplying practically all of the
food consumed by our men in the
South Pacific area, including more
than 100,000,000 pounds of food, and |
are providing camps, airfields, re-
pair depots, and numerous other!
items: the British Navy furnished
two-thirds of the warships which
convoyed the expedition to North
Africa; also for North Africa, the
British supplied such substantial
quantities of military equipment as
four 1,000-bed field hospitals, 168 |
Spitfires, 600 ambulances, artillery,
airfield runways, bombs, smmuni-
tion !
