Instead, the Moscow-dictated strategy may be to feed the helo in gradually, al ways maintaining superiority in force and compelling tne unuea States to put more and more div isions, planes and warships into the campaign. Meanwhile in these early months of the war, the Korean campaign will afford Russia opportunity to measure the battle-skill of Amer ican troops, airmen and sailors and equally important the effec tiveness of American weapons. It can also provide an index for the Russians to decide how deter mined and how prepared the United States is to fight at a n y point where Moscow pushes the remote-control button of war. wonirr over the ether waves, found burg-1 tllarv .usdly' J"1?,,?0 " " lars had entered his home while he was away.
