SIMPSON, Associated Press War Analyst) London is setting the stage for revamping its policy toward India under the gravest threat. to British rule there since the first imperial ltnndard was raised on Indian soil more than three centuries ago. Japanese invaders swarming in Burma are knocking at the gates of Rangoon, already ablaze as British forces apply the scorched-earth pol- icy. Burmcse oil wells, like those in parts of the Netherlands Indies, have also been put to the torch. The smoke of that new retreat of the allies further cloud: the war scene in the Far Pacific-Indian Ocean theatre us an OIIIlIIOIISIy rising toll otf shipping losses in the Atlantic also is indicated by London. Yet there are elements in both theatres of action to relieve allied gloom. o o a o o I Whatever the duration of the debate on Indian policy in London, if. seems certain the grim advance of Japanese forces in Burma must load to more effective mustcrlng of India‘: manpower against the Axis. Nor can it be overlooked that Japan is being increasingly committed to major operations on two fur-separated fronts simultane u’. Distance and the time required for ships to reach danger points still lathe greatest factor forcing the allies to a. continuing retreat strategy.
