MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS
Let's Trust The Navy
&
In the humble opinion of this arm-chair strategist.
Senator McNary is altogether too excited about the
Japanese landings on the tip of the Aleutians and the
submarine shelling of two west coast communities in
which there was neither loss of life or property damage.
The combined fleets of all the world would not be
sufficient to patrol the ragged Pacific coastline so com
pletely that an especially daring sub commander might
not sneak through. We are building sub-chasers by
the hundred, and the patrol is being increased daily.
If the Japanese could scare coastal towns into putting
up such an outcry for protection that they would de
mand the recall of a large part of the fleet for that,
purpose, and if the Navy were obliged to accede to
that demand, such victories as the one we are all re
joicing over at Midway would be impossible.
Until our offensive weapons are available in suffic
ient quantity to defeat the Japs, it may be necesary for
the good of the few to be sacrificed to the good of the
many. But in affairs of this sort it seems we can trust
the Navy to do the best it can with the materials at
hand. Effective protection can be and has been planned
against mass attacks and large-scale enemy operations.
The depredations of a single sub. or the landing of a
suicide squad at the tip of our world may succeed
temporarily, but will have no effect on the final out
come of the war.—Petersburg (Alaska) Press.
Japs Vrv Outsmarted \oh
As we get the picture, the “belly buster” and “kick
in the pants" we gave the Japanese at. Midway was a
continuation of the Coral Sea naval battle. The Japs
kept feinting as though they were going to invade Aus
tralia while preparing a great armada to slip across
the ocean to attack Pearl Harbor in force. The sporadic
bombing of Dutch Harbor was another feint to divide
our naval forces. The United States allowed the main
Japanese torce to approach confidently far from their
own base close to the American base before attacking.
They let the light cruisers and transports get by into
the center of the “trap," and then attacked from the
rear and front. Unless we are mistaken another branch
of the U. S. naval force is yet to be heard from, sub
marines, which may have been posted in the path of
tne fleeing Japanese and
may be heard from in tak
ing further Japanese toll.
Press dispatches tell about
the loss of the U. S. car
rier Lexington, as though
it was a part of the Mid
way battle, but the Lexing
ton was lost in the Coral
Sea battle. After being dis
abled it was torpedoed and
supnk by our own forces to
keep it from falling into
Japanese hands. The spot
was marked from which
it can be raised later. The
whole thing sums up to
this —the U. S. had accu
rate information and out
guessed and out-maneuver!
ed the wily Japanese. Their
second attempted attack
on Pearl Harbor was made
during war times; their
first attack there was dur
ing peace times while
their envoys were “shak
ing hands” in Washington
for peace negotiations
while raising the dagger to
stab us in the back.
