Carlos Romulos, resident commissioner of the Philippines, Lack of Japanese opposition was surprising since it seemed incredible the Japanese could have been unaware of the American intentions with the huge armada which stretched beyond the horizon coursing for days toward the landing points. One single Japanese plane made a brief appearance over the landing scene and was shot down before it could do any damage. One submarine was detected before the {armada reached the island, but was not heard again after destroyers

Moving from the realm of “idea men” and speech writers into the field of politicians in the Dewey
camp who are trying to call the turn on how goes the campaign, the big question today is how effective will be the active speaking campaign which Mr. Roosevelt begins tomorTOW. Those who arent kidding themToe| selves recall the devastating way in which Mr. Roosevelt moved in on Wendell Killkie in the last two weeks of the 1940 campaign and, with skillful political tactics, knocked the props from under much of the gains the G. O. P. nominee had made. Some of Mr. Dewey's staff profess to be happy that Mr. Roosevelt has,

MacArthur's command, he said, had designated foday as “A” day because it wanted a different designation from the conventional “D-day” applied to most invasions. The landings on Leyte drove a wedge between the two main Japanese strongholds in ‘the Philippines Luzon with the capital city of Manila in the north, and Mindanao
