Nothing could please Japan more. Nothing would hew so closely to her propaganda line. We westerners understand this danger perhaps more than others. We may remember Pearl Harbor more clearly. And Bataan, Guadalcanal, Tarawa . . . With the war over in Europe, the West will now bo come the great "marshalling yards" for the final Big Push against Japan. An enormous tide of troops and war materials undoubtedly will pour through to our seaports. Western railroads, housing, food supplies and shipping will be strained with the full weight of the nation's fighting effort We say this because as far as the western railroads are concerned many civilians may expect victory In Europe to mean better transportation service here. Ac tually, it may mean lest room for civilians on the trains. When the full tide of war traffic comes, we shall call on every resource to handle it We shall run the war trains through.
