AMONG strategical advantages

ONE: Allied war production. The United Stat®s alone produces 8000 combat planes a month as contrasted with Japan's estimated 1400 to 1500 a month.

TWO: Allied naval victories and supremacy have robbed Japan of power for a strategic offensive beyond the range of her landbased planes. THREE: Japan is losing merchant ships at the rate of 1,500,000 tons a year and building them at a rate under 1,000,000 tons, From a grand total of 8,000,000 tons, Japan's merchant fleet has shrunk below 5,000,000, inadequate for an empire stretching 10,000 miles from north to south,

FOUR: B-20 superforiresses and “island-skipping” conquests have carried the war into Japan's inner defense zone,

FIVE: Allied planes, warships, fighting men and military leaders have proved superior to Japan's. = = » ON THE OTHER side of the ledger: ONE: Japan is “capable of increasing her production of almost every category of war equipment.” TWO: Before the allies can launch major invasions, they must solve major shipping prob-

new and rapidly as the allies can destroy them.

the commando and naval thrusts across the Adriatic, the Germans frequently have issued propaganda reports not borne out by events. Tito’s liberation army reported that Partisans co-operated with allied naval units to occupy the strategic island of Pag, one of the northernmost of the Adriatic islands near Istrian, Italy. “Until recently Tito's forces have not been in position to give substantial support to an allied invasion. But in the last few weeks with the crumbling of Hitler's em-

spread offensive operations placing them in position to hit the Germans from the rear in concert with an attack from the sea. Allied naval forces long have controlled the Adriatic, making it im-

Yugoslav partisans recently have been operating inside Albania withg the bility ‘was seen that Tito had shifted formidable units southward in preparation for the present operation. 4 : A quick allied thrust across Yugoslavia would seal the fate of the Germans in Greece and the Aegean islands, from which the Nazis have been reported withdrawing for some time. The Yugoslavs were pressing their offensive in Bosnia, storming the towns of Gracanica and killing or wounding most of the German garrison. Heavy fighting was reported in western Serbia in the region of Loznica and in the Prilep-Veles sector of Macedonia.
