Prime Minister Churchill's decla-
ration in London yesterday that

Nevertheless, they welcomed the

swift redistribution of allied forces
was directed on Dec. 12, there was
no Indication of what may have
been involved beyond President
Roosevelt’s asertion in a press con-
ference late yesterday that America
Was sending all the help it could
to th? Southwest Pacific area and
that six to ten American Expedi-
tionary Forces are in various local-
ities of the world.
The redistribution was regarded
as a short-range, holding action to
strengthen United Nations' lines in
the Pacific and bolster outposts
against sudden Axis thrusts. Be-
yond this immediate defensive ac-
tion was the broader, long-term
strategy of deploying land-sea
forces over the whole world.
Increasing amphibious raids on
the Axis-held coasts of Europe, pos-
sibly building up to full-dress as-
saults on Norway from the British
Isles and on Italy and the North-
ern Mediterranean shore from the
British-held bulge of Cirenalca,
were considered likely parts of the
long-range plan
In the Pacific, the thinly spread
Japanese army and navy would be
