Washington, Sept. 28 U.R)
Allied victory In the east is cer
tain, but military leaders be
lieve it will take an "absolute
minimum" of 1V4 years after
defeat of Germany to wring un
conditional surrender from Jap
an, the Office of War Informa
tion reported today.
The odds all favor the Allies,
the OWI said in a survey based
on data from the war navy and
state departments, but 'overall
military plans, including those
concerned with war production,
are based on the assumption
that it may take years rather
than months, to defeat Japan."

Into a stalemate: the report said,
and in any event there are ob
vious factors "favoring the Japa
nese and pointing toward the
prolongation of the war."
Not the least of these factors
are a still powerful Japanese
fleet of 10 to 13 battleships and
10 to 12 large aircraft carriers, a
constantly improving air force
and an army of 4,000,000 men
with 3,500,000 more men of mill
try age available for service.
And the psychological effect
of Germany's collapse, the OWI
raid, might well heighten Japan's
determination and fighting spirit.
Whatever else happens, "no
Internal collapse of Japan is ex
pected," the OWI said. Te re
port quoted Joseph C. Gr v, for
10 years ambassador to Japan,
as saying of the Pacific enemy
that "only by utter physical de
struction or utter exhaustion of
their men and materials can they
be defeated."
