U.S.'lti "¥Si HULLABALOO By LYTLE HULL VITAL ACTION IN NORTH BURMA With all the exciting' action tak ing place in Italy and with every eye on the invasion, the advance ol a Chinese army in only 2U,01H> men across the Salween river and into northern Burma, does not ap pear of very marked significance. But if this movement is successful it may well take precedence in its bearing upon the future, over seemingly far more vital and im portant military maneuvers. For if this army can contact General Stil well’s army—which is at present about a hundred and fifty miles as the crow flies to the northwest -- i will cut off North Burma and opt the way for the construction jo, : lie Ledo road to a junction with the Burma road. This in turn Won.hi mean that tile Allies could d.< liver supplies of heavy war ma ts nil to Generalissimo Chiang it ii-shek and probably enable him to hold out against the Japanese j until such times the other United ' Nations are able to join him in a united offensive. I I here does Hot appear to be much doubt in the minds of mili tary me nthat Japan can be forced to surretidei unconditionally, pro jvided the Allies—after the defeat .of Germany — can attack her through China or through Russia. N'o one seems to know what Rus sia's attitude toward Japan will be | after Germany’s defeat, so the re i muiniug Allies probably depend upon driving the Japanese out of [Chinn and basing their final cam paign upon the Chinese coast. A glance at the outline of the Japanese conquests in the Far East is pretty discouraging, but it need not be as had as it appears, if— < hina is aide to keep on fighting. I in* leconipiest of that vast, moun tainous, "‘jungley" portion of the map which includes Burma, I ha: land, French Indo-China the Uulch Fast Indie', tlie Philippines, etc., seems almost too piuHlipious to Lie possible — especially when fiehtinir mote in less in the en emy's territory, and when tile; en emy has such a trememlou'. tics'll, skillful force of definitely proud fighting: material. But if we can drive the .Japanese out of Pinna and can pet control of the sea between the Philippines and the Chinese coast till the limitless tei ritory to the south will he cut oft’ from any help oi supplies from Japan, and the plight of the stranded enemy forces would he grave to say the hvst. A perfunctory study of the map makes all this conjecture ohvious; but it also makes apparent the dif ficulty of our position in the event China was forced to nit because her allies were uualde to trans port to her the required amount of equipment. If Japan could hold even what she now does m China she could pr.ohahl' provide he; fac tories with all the raw material they require—without depending upon Bu'tna, the Fast Indies, etc. We speak in term- of thousand of miles when we di-cu.-- tip- l.ure part of the earth' mu fare. It is not a legion Which can toe con quered with ea-e against a deter milled ilfld well equipped foe. even if the attacker i- land-1-ased. So if all this vast territory had to In won—-from the sea hy Britain and the Fniled States, without the help of Bus ia and ‘.’hilla, :ii-d therefore without the use of then coasts, the difficulties call he read ily imagined. And so the vital importance of this drive of the little Chinese army; and till the action in Xtilth Burma w hich seems to t je in w il h it, hecornes apparent w-.-pPhetCI WE REPAIR ALL MAKES OF SEWING MACHINES We are in a position to Overhaul and Repair any make of Sewing Machine - and can furnish any part it needs.
