Tokyo's only power lies in whatever ‘'nui sance value" she might provide in Siberia to help her Fascist allies, Germany and Italy. U. S. by Comparison. Figures on America’s military power are provided only for com parative purposes. Though the United States has abandoned her policy of complete isolation, her neutrality position is stronger than it was in the World war, when American aid was deemed neces sary to crush Germany's imperial ism. Thus the lineup of great powers finds Germany and Italy on one side, opposed by Great Britain, France and Russia. Such European countries as Jugo-Slavia, Rumania and Hungary are minor factors. Switzerland, Norway, Sweden, Den mark and Finland have avowed their intention of escaping compli cations. Here, then, are the figures. In actual army strength — including standing forces, airmen and re serves—Russia, France and Great Britain have 26,725,000 men. Italy and Germany have less than half, or 10,725,000. Great Britain’s navy is alone big ger than the combined fleets of Italy and Germany, whose tonnage is 1,107,032. Britain’s 1,758,478 tons, plus 699,342 tons from France, makes an opposition force of 2,457,- 820 tons. Some of this naval equip ment will not be ready to use for several months, but the actual ratio GREAT B R ITA IN 5,000 IT A L Y 5,000 JAPAN Tonnage: 898,691 (Including 10 Battleships) U N IT E D STATES mb FRANCE 3,400 FRANCE JAPAN Tonnage: 699,342 (Including 9 Battleships) ITA LY Tonnage: 668,668 (Including 8 Battleships) GERMANY Tonnage: 438,364 (Including 10 Battleships) Despite the fearsome thunderings of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, a* paradox of war-mad Europe is that the foes of Germany and Italy have far superior military equipment. Though Rome and Berlin may shout and boast, a cold anal ysis of comparative strength shows that the inevitable "allies” can eventually defeat them in a war which might last as long as two years. This fact has long gone unnoticed. It was not brought out until a few weeks ago when Germany opened her autumn maneuvers and began looking with hostile eyes at little Czecho slovakia, whose Sudeten German minority has allegedly been discriminated against. Though Czechoslovakia herself is weak, though even Great Britain has a surprisingly small armed force, the mighty power of Russia and France is some-* thing to be reckoned with. Rus at the present time is about the sia cannot afford to throw her same.

There’ll be the same ex cellent story, but we’re prom ised that it will be twice as thrilling — if that’s possible — because of improved methods of picture making. implements of Mars. But the theory has not been borne out in the three conflicts the world has seen these past five years.

BELOW—Czech soldiers, small in number but great in brave ry, stand ready to defend their na tion against German aggression. A flying field has been laid out, the Marne sector has been duplicat ed, a British cast has been collect ed, because it is a picture of the Royal Flying corps—Errol Flynn, David Niven, Basil Rathbone, Claude Rains, Barry Fitzgerald, Patrie Knowles, among others. Ten planes of the war period have been purchased, equipped with modem engines and two types of machine guns; they’ll be crashed or burned during the making of the picture. • • • It's interesting, this time of year, to see what programs the big spon sors have lined up. Here's a sample 3,000 offered by Haile Selassie’s forces. And in China the Japs have met with similar resistance. Shanghai was not captured overnight by a terrific bombing attack; the cam paign lasted closer to five months. The most striking example of modem warfare is in Spain, where two powerful forces are fighting their battles along tactics similar to those used in the World war. Ma drid was bombed hundreds of times and still found itself able to hold out against Generalissimo Franco’s rebel troops. Thus, militarists of 1938 are of the opinion that warfare has not changed much in the past 20 years. As in the World war, the doughboy is the most vital factor in land con flict. A similar comparison can be made on the sea, where the battle ship is still the backbone of the fleet despite mighty naval planes developed in recent years.
