‘They Tgoto Better‘

,War Commentary

(Written for Tho Camdian Proos By slat-Gen. Sir Charles G-wynn)

LONDON, Feb. 26—(CP Cable)- Tlie centre of interest in tho For East has been transferred from Ms- liya to Burma and the Netherlands East Indies. _

in BLIPIIIB. tho Japanese overcame the most formidable natural ob- stacles when they crossed the moun- tains dividing Burma from Thai- land. The resources of our Zarrison at Moulmein and Tavoy could hard- ly have been calculated to withstand such large forces as tho Japanese succeeded in bringing over.

As soon as they secured tho cross- ing of the Salween at its mouth tho Japanese had a strip of open coun- try infront of them along the rail- way line to Pegu and thence down to Rangoon. So far wo have suc- ceeded in holding them at the Bilin River, although neither this nor tho Sittaiig River. 25 miles farther west. are strong defensive lines.

The obvious wav of reinforcing Burma is by sea to Rangoon. 1i tho J11 paiiese have hopes of overrunning the country speedily they have fail- ed to take into account its slno and comparative lack of communica- tions. _

iii opposite directions from Singa- pore the Japanese already are at- tacking Eastern Sumatra and it is clear their object is to occup Su- matra and Java. which woul livo them unrestricted entry to the In- dian Ocean.

Once the Japanese obtained s footing on Smgapore Island the fall oi that base was inevitable. Perhaps the main object of prolonging resist- ance instead of attemptinlz 8-H W80-

uation was to prevent the liberation t

of Japanese forces for. further en- tcrprises and deny them use oi tho poilt and air base for as long as pos- Sl J C.

Neither the condition of tho troops alter long lighting under tho most trying conditions nor the na- ture oi the terrain could be consid- ered favorable. however. for s pro- longed stand.

Effects of tho Naval Ihndlcn

The Japaness are reported to have employed _six divisions in the campaign, At first sight it mlllhl seem that four divisions of defenco should have sufii ld he vadors at a. dist ca. ‘But four di- \lSl0llS were not available at tho stitrt.

‘the primary cause of the disaster. however. was the ' unavoidable‘ ab- seiice of the fleet. The presence or even possible arrival of_s powerful ilcet would have made s full Jap- ailt-se campaign impracticable.

11' ‘the Pearl Harbor coup had fall- ed it is probable the Japanese would have been forced to concentrate their naval strength and diverted their preparations in Indo-Chins. to purely land cperati against tho Burma Road. With. t o moleaoo of Japanese forces by the fall of Sing- apore the defences of Java and Bur- ma have become the immediate and most pressing problems. but Austra- lia is fully juhtliied in her determin- 3.1.1011 to prepare herself for l-II ei/imliiiitiies‘ gnifi e a fcnso

ac - ui"s ma con e is xilavlng a great part meanwhih h dissipating Japanese effort.

Rommel’; Psuso

In Libya the 8th Army has boon reorganized and, temporarily at least. appears to be standinlz on tho defensive while harassing the enemy with mobile detachments and por- nlstcnt air attacks on communics- tioiis and concentrations. All this is a natural development of Auchin- locks pollcv since Rommells count- cr-cffensive. <

There can be far greater specu- lation on Rommclts reasons for bolt- int: his advance and falling so far to seek a decisive action. Does ho consider the 8th army's position too strong to be attacked until he re- ceives further reinforcements? Thst appears a doubtful reason for delay in view of his losses consequent on

‘I'm remarkable the R. A. F. achieved agains air screen of Rommelk tentative movements last week may be the cause of his hesitation.

It is possible the reinforcements Rommel received or had in sight. be- fore ho counter-attacked were only sufficient to allow him to make a strong diversionary effort and that ho never intended a serious attempt to invade Eflypt. As a good general ho must have realized that his op- ponent had difficult communica- tions and that he had the opportun- ity of strikiniz before the capture of Halfaya had time to improve them. That ho should have exploited his initial success to the utmost is only what might be expected of him.

British Sport To Be Curtailed By Government

F

By Douglas Amaron Canadian Press Sh!!! Writer

LONDON, Fleb. M-(OP Cable)- sportsrnem in Britain anxiously e- waited tonight amplification of Sir Stafford Orlpps statement that their activities will be "no longer allowed to affect the solid and serious intentions at‘ this cou:i- try to achieve victory.”

The governments decision on phat restrictions will be made is not expected to be announced for s feiw days, but it is believed they will be drastic, aiming chiefly at the mld-weck sporting fixtures which involve the unnecessary use of transport and gasoline.

Sport in general already has been curtailed and an average probably of not more than 250,000 persons go to football, boxing and sreyhound racing events weekly.

It is felt in scme quarters, how- ever. that the programs could be cut down even further and still provide relaxation and entertain- ment conslstent with the all-out

Windsor Starts Year Well For Queen ’s Fund

Many outstanding contributions have been made to the Queens Canadian Fund in Windsor. 0nt.. since the start of the year. For ex- ample, American stars of the stage. screen and radio visited Windsor recently from Detroit where they were Dial/int! tovcapacitv houses and gave their services in aid of the mind. From one show~—a midnizlit revue at the Palace Theatre-M.- 40835 was realized from the sale of

The shows brought. such stars as Irene Bordcni. Nick Loni! Jifi. Phil Brestoff and his Michigan Thoutre Orchestra, Bob Ebercle, Bobby Johnson. Del ‘Parker. chorus RlrLs from "Louisiana Purchase. and Belle Baker, among others. It was staged under the sponsorship of the Windsor B'nnl Brith Association. with Mr. Cem Merritt taking over the work of planning the show. As- sisting him were Mr. Earl J. Hud- son, managing director of the De-

Ruby Clow. God Savo the King brought the meeting to a close after which a danty luncheon was ser- ved by the hostess. Next meeting to be held at Mrs. Johnston's.

IF CHILDREN CHEAT

A child cf school ago knows perfectly well that he should not cheat, l-le mav do it. for the fun and excitement of “putting it over on" his mother or teacher, or became he [eels ditto-q. u. equal the marks of the other students, or finds his school work too difficult or his ability to excel at games inferior to that of Ills lllflylflutfii.

Teachers who lny undue stress upon marks. who scold when

marks are not up to the standard, are encruragiiig their students '10 cheat. The wise teacher is she who emphasizes the child's effort more than his marks.

defence, liave generally agreed that sport can be cut down much

more without threatening its ex- istence. Horse racing was limited last

year to one meeting a fortnight and attendance, except for even-ts such as the Derby, rarely exceeded 6.000.

Sydney Hulls, boxing promoter. estimated that fewer than 10.000 persons go to professional boxing shows weekly-about the same number as go to London's west- end movies every hour,

Greyhound racing is limited in one meeting a week at each track and the spurt. draws about 85.000 spectators in the London district weekly.

Football. which attracts 100.000 to 150,000 fans to weekend games is not likely to be affected by the restrictions. Matches are played on Saturday afternoons dilly and the crowd already is limited by the government. ‘

Other events of the past. few weeks have aided greatly in sup. port of the Fund. The Countv Essex donated $1.000. a donation of more than $1.400 came from the May Court Club of Windsor for the purchase oi a mobile tea kitchen.

A Soldiers‘ Wives Club in Wind- sor contributes regularly from the proceeds of card games which they hold at the Y. W. C. A. Their hus- bands are a1! in the armed seivices. Eiizhty-year-old Mrs. Robert Dem- ing organized her own organ recital and niusicale and earned $104 for the Fund. A community keno ln- the Town of Riverside. sponsored by Mayor E. C. Young. raised $617.

Other plans are under way, tn- cluding several which will extend throughout the late staring months and nie expected to raise large
