GEN. ARNOLD SAYS
JAPS CAN'T TAKE
HEAVY BOMBINGS
Los Angeles, Dee. 12 U.R)
Gen. Henry H. Arnold, head of
the army air forces, believes that
continued bombing of Japan will
pay even greater dividends than
bombing of Germany, for Japan
lacks the facilities to repair
bombed installations that Ger
many has had.
At a press conference late yes
terday. Gen. Arnold said he
didn't have the answer to the
question of can Japan be bombed
to defeat. But the great aerial
offensive against the concen
trated Industries of Japan will
not be in full swing until more
B-29s are completed, he said.
There are two schools of
thought among scientists regard
ing the possibility of German
rockets screeching across the At
lantic, he said. One believes it is
possible, the other says it can't
be done.
General Arnold cautioned that
America has let down a bit since
the allies' push across France,
The Germans were able to re
form their defense lines when
the allies outstretched their sup
ply, lines, he said, and many
Americans are still coasting, on
the illusion that was created by
the first spectacular victories. ,
Washington, Dec. . 12 U.B
The United States government
believes that establishment of a
free and democratic Jewish com
monwealth in Palestine should
await the end of the war. -
