October 21. 19 THE BIGISTER-GUARD. EUGENE. OREGON. Key Hits yon ol Army -tirrTVP 5-' JLlt Correspondent toN - (UR The add .1.000.000 men W ! S ' of 7,300.000 t f"1:'";.. Sheridan Dow- of "temi-officil" information. - The army high command told a senate committee recently its year-end goal was 7,700,000 and that thereafter the only additional needs would be about 75,000 men a month Jot replacements. That objective was scaled down, from an original 8,200,000, Downey presented his informa tion to .the senate in a speech emphasizing a theme he developed several weeks' ago- that Ger many could be knocked out of the war by Feb. 1, 1944. with a maxi mum concentration of air power. He contended again that army plans for a huge land force are ill-advised because much of it can never be used and large scale land invasion is far too costly in men and material by comparison with devastating air assault. Men inducted between now and April 1 would not be well enough trained to aid an invasion fo Ger many for from 15 months to two years and could never be employ ed against Japan, he said. The cost of maintaining an ad ditional 1,000,000 men for 15 months would be $9,000,000,000, or 500 Jimes the value of the 60 bombers lost by the United Slates in the recent attack on vital ball-bearing factories at Suhwein furlh, he added. "British and American fliers now have an accelerated air pow er under which at least 10 huge air attacks can be made on Ger many monthly. It the attacks are persisted in, by Feb. 1 German fliers will be driven from the skies, the manufacture of all Nazi war equipment ended on the land, the German army must disinte grate, the Hitler government col lapse and the German nation sur render."
