Day and the Days Before V. J. Day V-E day has come and passed. We observed the long waited for event joyfully but with serious consideration for the davs to come. Now that the European struggle is at an end. our whole mind and interest is turned westward io the Pacific. The big news will not come from the Rhine or Berlin but from the islands and coast of the far east. We will note the movement of our fighting men from the European the ater. with their equipment, battle ships, bombers, U-boats, tanks, guns and all the things that will bring terror to the Japs. Then our great interest will turn to the action in that wide range of fighting until the last Nipponese is dead or back on his .home land, under unconditional surrender. An important question now is how much help are we going to get. As it stands now, Russia is out of the war. Will she declare against Japan and attack on the Siberian border or give us bases on the main land? While her position is rather delicate, as she will want something io say about Manchuria and an outlet io warm waters in the Pacific. She has refused io renew a treaty with Japan, but unless Russia takes a real part in the war, the struggle will be much longer for us. England has declared that she will throw all her forces with us but so far has sent into the Pacific only part of her navy, and that in the more southern waters where she has many possessions. With out aid. England has opened the back door to China, but her equipment and supplies will be needed over the roads to that vast interior. France is also under the necessity to do something in protection of her interests in French Indo China. What can sho do or what will she do except claim much and talk a lot? Holland can do litio to rescue the Dutch East Indies, and other allies have small to no interest in the vast area of the war yet to be won. We hope that these suggestions are gloomier than the facts, but we feel that Uncle Sam, with what power he can give China with its many million soldiers, must bear the heaviest load in the final battles for freedom, before day. IT’S YOUR MOVE- Here Are Money Savers IN MEMORIAL TO I KNOW SOMETHING GOOD TWO SOLDIERS ABOUT YOU By Beth Russell (From The Bulldog) Wouldn't this old world be bet- ter If the folks we meet would say: “I know something good about you” And then treat us just that way.
