Editorials on News (OmMbiw tram m L) (Continued from page 1) iO BERLIN than fighting front. any otnrr THERE Is obviously a race on in the Pacific. The Japs are driving hard to open the railroad that leat's (luwn from northern China to Canton. It is usually described in the dispatches as the Canton Hankow or the Canton-Peiping line. It is a liltle more reveal ing to describe it as the Shanghai-Canton railroad for Shang hai Is a great and accessible port, across the East China sea from Japan,, that connects with this railroad to Canton. Over this railroad, the Japs want to get men and supplies from their homeland and occu pied northern China to the southern China coast and the In terior that lies behind this coast. In this interior most of our airfields are located. w. E need to get ashore on the south China coast. We need to get ashore before the Japs get the shore line strongly held and fortified aaglnst us and before they GET TO our airfields in the interior. The Japs need to get set before we can get there. Hence the race. r. IY, you ask, don't we Just sail In and land? We have a navy that is capable or taKing care of the Jap navy if it tries to interfere. What are we waiting for? This is the answer: We are waiting until we can get BASES within striking distance of the south China coast. Our warships can't steam back to Pearl Har bor, or even to the Marshalls, 'whenever they run out of fuel and ammunition. They have to have a base NEARBY., Getting 'such a base is what we have been fighting so hard for at Saipan. But . it takes time. We must not only get Sal pan but must get supplies of fuel and ammunition. We must pro vide repair facilities, so that our damaged ships can be got back quickly into the fighting. That is what we are doing now. THE Japs are racing to get the south China coast all -tied up against us before -we ' can get there. We are racing to get there before the Japs can get it tied up.
