JOHNSON NEA Service Military Writer WASHINGTON, May 23.—Recent events are seen by informed opin ion here as pressing the United Nations inexorably to take one of the great calculated risks of mili tary history. An attempt, largely British but with substantial American help, to land on the European continent and establish the longed-for sec ond front some time this summer becomes increasingly likely with the fall of Corregidor and the im minent German effort to crush Russia. NAZI PRODUCTION IS A BIG THREAT The Nazi drafts upon the Italian, Rumanian, Hungarian and other armies for Russian-front cannon fodder, if only for use in lesser engagements, mean more German troops can be released from the main scenes of action. But more ociiuus. iu me nuiea cause are Germany’s drafts on subject na tions’ slave-labor, and other moves to increase the production of war material for Hitler throughout the German-dominated continent. This threatens to reach such volume that the Nazis may build up a strength in weapons and fortifica tions that will be hard to beat— ever. This danger seems real to ex pert American opinion, and must have been discussed in the recent conferences for which Harry Hop kins and General George C. Mar shall flew to Britain. In any case, the American views were stated with the same clarity, candor and when needed, tenacity, that helped General Pershing win over Allied leaders. British authorities here voice admiration for the solid qual ities of our Army’s Chief of Staff. It is generally believed that he has made an important contribu tion to the determining for this summer of an Allied grand strat egy. TIME MAY DICTATE ALLIED STRATEGY If the United Nations were given the choice, 1943 rather than 1942 might be the preferred year for a grand offensive against the Ger mans in western Europe. But time often dictates strategy, and the hands of the clock point toward 1942 for two reasons: (1) If German industry this sum Attacking from bases in the British Isles* United Nations’ forces would “have an umbrella over their heads”—the R. A. F. mer must meet only the demands of land warfare against Russia and the Near East, it can probably pile up in addition such a reserve that we never could excel it by the wide margin needful for vic tory. (2) If the Red Army or the less strong British Near East Army should cave under Nazi blows, Ja pan is expected by many authori ties to attack Siberia. If that at tack succeeds, we lose our one re maining good chance, once our Alaskan bases are adequate, to deal hard blows at the heart of Japan. Also the Japanese, if they could be based in Siberia, would greatly improve their position for attack on Alaska and thence our Northwest. Corregidor’s loss strengthens the menace to Russia by strengthen ing Japan’s southward supply lines, helping to free her for north, ward moves. SECOND FRONT NEEDED TO HELP RUSSIA How can we make sure that Rus sia does not crack? The supplies we can send this summer may not be enough. But Allied troops—even air forces—are held at arm’s length by distance and Soviet suspicion. The only oth er way to help Russia is by draw ing from her front enough Ger man troops — and particularly enough guns, airplanes and tanks —to swing the pendulum of battle. And the only way to do that is to force the Germans to supply one other major front where fighting is intense. That is the grim logic of events. And if this summer brings real danger of Russia cracking, that logic is likely to result in a des perate yet carefully planned at tempt to land an expeditionary force on the continent. Whatever spot may be chosen, several have already been discussed. The im mediate objective need not be Ber lin nor even Paris, to attain the result desired. The prelude may be a series of Commando raids all along the coasts from Trondheim to St. Nazaire, bumfuzzling the Germans and picking a soft spot. There, at the chosen moment, would be hurled a force that might ultimately total thirty divisions, chosen largely from the two mil lion shock troops now in the Brit ish Isles. Wherever they land, they would be accompanied by “Free” forces—Norwegian, Dutch, Belgi um. French. U. S. TO SUPPLY CRUSHING STRENGTH The British would be encouraged to bear the brunt by American aid. future and present. This aid would be strongest in aircraft— heavy and medium bombers now being flown across, fighters that soon may be. Crushing air strength would be needed, for it is esti mated that every Allied division would be opposed by two German divisions. But one main reason why the British Isles are the best American base for attack is that we would “have an umbrella over our heads”—the R.A.F. If the ef fort succeeded, we would reinforce it, preparing for a bigger follow through in the spring. But it might bring on a battle unprecedented in history. The Nazis might strike back through the air with a counter-invasion of Britain. Inside Germany, pretty safe from the R.A.F., they are re ported to nave niaaen neets oi gliders bearing twelve to twenty four men each. These gliders would be released at night, high enough and far enough away so that they would descend noiseless ly. The crews are especially trained to strike at sensitive points, especially power stations and lines, preparing for a German counter-landing. Which helps explain some Brit ish reluctance to risk the difficult Channel crossing without leaving more behind them than their two million Home Guards, who are not frontline troops nor equipped for every contingency. Also, the Ger mans could be expected to mass all their submarines to attack the allied shipping used to transport invading forces. And this, even if the invasion succeeded, might * starve out Britain. Shipping is still the United Nations’ great weak ness, as some naval authorities have warned. If either Nazi counter-stroke suc ceeded, we would have to give up hope of beating Hitler tunless his empire collapsed of its own weight), withdraw from Europe, and wait until the Navy could build the ships and especially the air craft carriers to beat Japan—if Hitler let us wait that long. 2 ‘Squeeze Play’ Shown By Expert By WILLIAM E.

Three r ounds of trumps were taken, dummy dis carding the two low diamonds. Before leading the fourth trump, on which dummy would be em barrassed for a discard, Fishbein cashed the ace and king of clubs and ruffed the three-spot. Th f s play might have dropped both the queen and jack, but when the jack remained at large, North cashed the fourth trump and dummy let go the ten of clubs. As Fishbein had hoped, West was in a trump squeeze. He had to discard down to four red cards. If he saved only two diamonds, dummy’s tops would drop his queen and North’s laat trump would give re-entry to cash the jack. If west saved three dia monds and only one heart, dummy would be put in with a diamond to ruff a heart, then the other dia mond would give re-entry to cash the long heart. -V BEAUTY A PICKPOCKET Glamorous Sofia Kulesar, elect ed beauty queen at Budapest, Hun gary, for the tenth time, has just scored her fiftieth conviction.

Editor of Advance If the scenes in our lesson, the Last upper, were not sufficiently dramatic in the simple description which the New Testament record gives, great artists would have dramatized it for us and made the setting unforgetable. The greatest depiction of the scene in art is the famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci, though it is more ac curate in the emotions that it evokes than in its historical de tail. It is unlikely that the disciples ate at a long table of Leonardo’s arrangement. More likely they were grouped together at tables in what was, and continues to be, and were reclining instead of sit ting. But the physical details are un important. Jesus and His disciples were Jews, and in harmony with the statement of Jesus that He had not come to destroy the law or the prophets, they were engaged in what was, and continus to be, the holiest of all Jewish observ ances, the celebration of the Pass over. This specific celebration in the upper room has a new and added historical significance as the origin of the Christian sacrament, or the Lord’s Supper, which is so much the essence of Christian faith and fellowship that we speak of Christian bodies, or denominations as “communions." Was Jesus consciously establish ing such a rite? It is a question we may ask, but that we cannot inswer. Much might be said for the idea that Jesus was sanctify ing all fellowship and all partaking of food together. The supper that the disciples ate was evidently a real meal. The small portion of bread and wine, of which modern congregations partake in the Lord’s Supper, is symbolic rather than real, and church suppers have little relation to that Supper in the upper room. Yet why should they not have? Why, without be coming sad and solemn occasions, should not every mingling of Chris tians together, and particularly the mingling for common food and so cial intercourse, be touched with the glory of all that makes the Church worth while? And all that makes the Church worth while is here portrayed in the glorification of Christian serv ice. Though one of the twelve was a traitor, these disciples had been called to high honor. But it was not the honor of exercising power like that of earthly kings. It was the honor of sharing in the service of the King of Kings, who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords, be cause, beyond all others, He stooped to conquer and gave Him self completely to the service of God and His fellowmen. By joining in that spirit, we can perpetuate the spirit of the Lord’s Supper in that upper room. The conflict in the world is still on between the loyal disciples and the traitorous Judases, between the “Lords of the Gentiles,” the believers in force and violence, and the saints in the upper room, rhe Master went from the upper Navy To Re-float The Capsized Normandie The Navy has begun preliminary work irr raising the burned and capsized liner Normandie at her pier in New York. Barges and other salvage equipment lie alongside the overturned giantess in this picture which was made May 21 after the Navy announced it will cost millions and require a year to re-float the vessel. room to tragedy and death, and lovers of peace and truth and righteousness are passing through a new Calvary, but the voice of Jesus still sounds, “Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” It is the spirit of service that will conquer and the hope of our country is in those who serve. -V Soft Jacket-Dress This slimming outfit is designed by Marian Martin for a crowded calendar season!
