there, to have frozen noses an<
ears and hands and legs choppy
off—most of ’em, doubtless, pres-
ently to die, anyway.
So there's a certain amount ot
hopefulness that Herr Hitler's
nearing the end of his string, mean
ing the end of Signor Mussolin
also.
But how about Japan?
It’s been an obvious mistal,
consider the Japs as German |
pets. They took advantage of I
Occident’s preoccupation with it
own troubles to launch their Asi.
ic and southwesterly Pacific ca
paign, but they did it independen
ly, and their geographical advai
tage is very material.
Japan May Keep On
Even assuming Germany’s and
Italy’s elimination, they’re linble to
be able to keep up a tircsomely
long war.
They’re so far off that they'll b
more difficult than Germany and :i
lo: more difficult than Italy t<
overrun. And they haven’t got <•■
mere Hitler or Mussolini to e-.tin
guish; they've got a whole military
class, running into millions in
personnel, to be exterminated am!
it’s a crazier fighting class than al!
the Nazis, Fascists arid Falangist
combined.
Italians aren't particularly su:
cidal. Germans are somewhat s<
but nothing to compare with thi
Japanese Samurai. Those boys
would just as soon commit hari-
kari as eat chop-suey
And, tn the meantime the Chi
uese, the Filipinos, the Singnpm
aggregation, the Dutch East' I
dians, the Australasians, the F
waiians, the Alaskans, the west!
Canadians and the rest of our I
cific coastal western hemisphe
are due to find 'emselves on a In
spot. No wonder they don’t enjo
having Secretary Knox tell 'e
that the Japs are of no con;
quenee

That’s the
opinion he ex-
pressed in a
talk before the
National C o n-
igM\i ference ot May-
ors, recently in
I session in Wash-
I ington.
Yes, perhaps
he was correct.
Nevertheless,
have been expect-
ed that, in pooh-poohing Japan, his
ludgment would be okayed with
much unanimity by the Chinese,
the Filipinos, the British at Singa-
pore, the East Indian Dutch, the
Australians and New Zealanders,
or even by our own west coastal
folk or by Latin Americans on the
Pacific -slope, from the Mexican
line on down to the southerly tip
of Chile.
It wasn’t so okay by ’em. either.
Their reactions to that speech of
Frank's have been coming into
Washington ever since he ad-
dressed the mayors, and if any of
’em have indorsed his view. 1
haven’t heard ’em, but there are
plenty to the opposite effect.
That the Italians are ready to
quit on the first good excuse is
quite generally agreed. Not only
Frank says so, but so do the Brit.
Ish. Signor Mussolini doesn't rate
as a serious worry. It's the con-
census that licking the Fuehret
will lick Benjto and his Fascists,
too. Frank Knox could have made
that statement without starting '
much of a controversy.
Two Methods
He might also have said that
perhaps there are two ways of
disposing of Adolf — by trouncing
him and his Nazis into surrender
or by making things so miserable
for the generality of Germans that
they themselves will abolish him,
with no necessity for further mas-
sage from the outside.
The most appalling stories leak
out from the Reich concerning the
horrors of the Nazi campaign in
Russia. Being shot’s comparative-
ly merciful, according to these ac-
counts, but efter a German is
wounded, it’s i 'atert, he usually
dies from the cc he’s better off
if shot dead, Kerplunk, escaping
subsequent hideous suffering from
frost, until, at length, it finishes
him. bv degrees.
Furthermore, he deesn t have t
oe shot to freeze—his face an
hands and feet, up to his hips, it
said. On an average he isn
warmly clad, and frostbite cal
tor just the right medicatio
which it seems the Germans are:
provided with, or, as the victi
begins to thaw, he also begins t
putrefy.
There are tales of stretch
bearers falling down in swooi
from the awful odor exuded by t
frozen but still living Germa
they’re trying to bring in <
course, there can't but be amput;
tipns galore.
I’m no competent guesser if tin
shouldn't be exceedingly demorai
