I was told in Antwerp that the Germans had concentrated hundreds of barges which had l.ren used on the Rhine and other continental rivers. They were self-propelled, about 160 feet long and capable of carrying about 150 soldiers each.

LONG WAR SEEN WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.—(UP) Allied victory in the East is certain, but military leaders believe it will take an “absolute minimum” of H . years after defeat of Germany to bring unconditional surrender from Japan, the Office of War Information reported today. The odds all favor the allies, the OWI said in a survey based on data from the War, Navy and State Departments, but “overall military plans, including those concerned with war production .arc based on the assumption that it may take years, rather than months, to defeat Japan.” “One and a half to two years after the defeat of Germany,” the OWI said, “is considered an absolute minimum.”
