War Situation Last Nightl-n ~.J (By KIRKE L. SIMTSON, Associated Press War Analyst) The Far Pacific, Libya and Russia each contribute their own con- firmation to the soundness of the modern military axiom that territory taken or lost 1n war means little ol itself. It is destruction of armies that counts most, and control of strategic key points dominating vast regions of so; or land. The thrice-fold tale of the wur in Libya ls the most notable dom- onstration of the axiom. The war Juggernaut has rolled back and forth - there lIlCOIlGlI-lSlVcly time and again, covering hundreds of miles. U The war in Russia. hu followed tho same course. The Far Pacific gives the ssme picture.
