Hull Asserts
Victory Gets
Less Distant
WASHINGTON, May IMS5)
Victory U not so far away as it
seemed a few months ago, Secre
tary of State Hull indicated Wed
nesday.
He made no predictions as to
the duration of the war, but sug
gested that any one inclined to
revise previous estimates as to
its duration had some rather en
couraging facts on which to base
calculations.
Hull was asked at his press con
ference whether recent develop
ments at home and abroad had
encouraged him to hope that vie
tory for the United Nations might
come sooner than had been ex
pected at the beginning of this
year.
In reply he cited the steadily
increasing acceleration of the war
effort of the United States. He
said our powers and facilities of
going forward, first in offensive-
defense operations and then In
outright offensive war, were
mounting steadily toward a cli
max.
It was only natural, he suggest
ed, that any new calculations as
to the duration of the war should
be made in light of those facts.
Hull's optimistic remarks were
made against a background of re
ports from Europe Indicating that
German morale was deteriorating,
that shortages of food and stra
tegic materials in Hitler-domi
nated Europe were increasing,
that the rising fury of British air
raids on German objectives might
soon hit a pace of 1000 bombers a
night dumping bombs on the
enemy.-
