That the Allies will win and that the Axis will be defeated are well assured from all sur veys, but when and at what cost we will secure peace are yet indefinite. It is safe to say thaat Russia has defeated Hitler. That is, if defeat means no chance to win. Hitler had to get out of Europe this year, but he didn’t make it. This country has defeated Japan, if by the same to ken Japan has no chance to win. Japan had to knock out our navy and gain air supremacy this year which she did not do. She loses in every engagement, sea, air or land, and with our rapidly gaining forces and equipment she can make no permanent gains. Italy is just a question mark, and figures little in the final estimates. A stalemate for a period is all the Axis forces can hope for. But Germany is well entrenched within the boun daries of Europe. If German morale holds she will hold out a long time. Hitler can fight defensively, it is generally considered through 1943. Japan yet has resources to draw from in her conquered coun tries, and has a million men on the Siberian border to threaten Russia and our attempts to gain bases in Kamchatka. It is, therefore, estimated that Japan may hold out through 1944, even if Hitler falls. We have made a bold attack in Africa, but that battle is not won, and has prospects of being deadly. We are scattered over the world with our assistance to the Allies, and cannot concentrate on one or two fronts. Our job is the biggest in supplying our fight ing friends with the equipments and munitions of war. So far, ours is not a brilliant display. But be hind most every battle we are there and are increas ing v so. By next mid-summer we are assured of having much greater power in every phase of the conflict, and it will be then that we will likely make our mark on the events of history. y .something NEW 3 1, a" 62, Me MALE *1 —, JOHN DEERE Here’s an entirely new type of two-way plow that will give you big capacity, easier operation easier new John Deere No. 32 Two wagvrrbetor“pithe Both wheels operate on the land to Serve % gauge at wheels for the plow and to keep the plow level all times even when opening lands "IX new in design new in features you'd like.
