Nelion. Britiah Columbia.\nMEMBER OB THE CANADIAN PRESS AND\nTHE AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS.\nTUESDAY, FEB. 3, 1942.\nA Japanese Contingent\nSmashed\nIt seems clear that the combined\nAmerican and Dutch naval and air'\nforces have scored a smashing victory\nover Japanese warships and their convoy of troops intended for invasion, in\nthe battle, lasting several days, in the\nStrait of Macassar.\nFor insignificant losses, the Allies\nsank or damaged 36 ships which they\ntrapped and engaged.\nSeveral fully justifiable inferences\nmay be drawn from this smashing onesided victory.\nWhile we do not have any idea of\nthe number of warships engaged, it is\nquite clear that the Japanese navy\u2014\nthough admittedly having at present a\nsuperiority of strength in Eastern waters\u2014is not to be feared by any Allied\nforce having comparable strength. In\nsome wars half a century ago, the Japanese navy of that time triumphed\nover antiquated and badly munitioned\nand badly handled enemy fleets. But\nin modern times, and against modern\nships and planes, the Japanese are not\nshowing up as any super-fighters. Apparently they are not the equal of their\nfoes.\nAnother logical deduction is that\nthe American flying fortresses can\n\"get their ships,\" as the Mounties of\nCanada \"get their men.\"\nThe land fighting all along has\nshown that, while the fanatical Japanese may be good fighters, they are not\nat all super-fighters. The secrets of\ntheir initial successes have been surprise and numbers. They are probably\nnot even in the class with those facing\nthem.\nThere is no possible way of interpreting the\" crushing losses inflicted\non this particular horde of Japanese\nfighting ships and troop ships, as other\nthan a disaster. Whatever margin of\nloss the high command's calculations\nmay have provided for, they cannot\nhave contemplated the loss of many\nthousands of sailors and land troops\nand a couple of dozen ships and the\ndisablement of others. This particular\nexpedition has gone awry.\nThe battle serves notice to the Japanese war lords that their argosies are\nfar from being invulnerable, and that\nthey may expect to pay an increasing\nferry fare for the armies they are sending out to attempt the conquest of free\npeoples.\n? ?

The\nOld Prussian Guard seeks an early peace now,\njust aa lt did in August, 1918, so that the remaining itrength of the army may be conaerv-\ned. Then, according to their plan, when Germany li brought under their political as well\nas military control by overthrowing the Nail\nparty, they will be in a stronger position to\nnegotiate a favorable peace.\nHitler, on the other hand, knows that ha\ncan never have peace. Therefore he muit fight\non to recoup his prestige by further victories.\nThe Prussian generals believe that they have\na chance, and it ls to it that they .turn their\nwhole attention. But for Hitler, defeat meant\nthe end of himself and his regime.\nIt Is clearly seen that the interest! of both\nparty and the Old Prussian Guard, are not\nprimarily Germany, but the survival of their\now ngroup. Each is competing for control of\nthe nation, Its people and Its power, for that\nselfish purpose. How bitter that rivalry will\nbecome, eaa only be surmised, but within\ndays of the first military defeat the ihot-gun\nmarriage ot the old Prussian forcee and the\nNazi party has resulted In a divorce.\nThe machinations of the Prussian generals\nare fraught with consequencei for the whole\nworld. These men are more dangeroua after\ntheir dismissal than before, because in working for the perpetuation of their own power\nin the post-war Germany they are laying the\nground-work for another military Reich.\nBound by a unity of spirit, they' are the controlling group of the old Junkep class which\nhas long dominated Prussia, and through\nPrussia, Germany. Now they have sought\nthrough Germany to dominate Europe\u2014an\naim on which they found common ground\nwith the Nazi party. Their failure ll now\nevident, but should they survive, lomeday\nthey will try again.\nThree of the outstanding repreaentativei\nof this group are von Brauchitsch, von Bock\nand von Runstedt, the latter two of whom\nbegan their military careers as officer! ln tha\nsame Berlin regiment, have commanded the\nGerman drives against Moscow and the\nUkraine, and were removed with von Brauchitsch. But of the three, von Bock ls the most\nInfluential, the most powerful, and the most\ndangerous\u2014perhaps the outstanding leader ol\nthe Prussian group\nVon Bock is the only man In Germany,\nwho Is on most intimate terms with the Crown\nPrince. He was several times brought to trial\u2014\n\"the most fanatical enemy of the republic.\" Ha\nhates the Nazi party with an equal fanaticism; on one occasion he gained the undying\nenmity of Goering by openly snubbing hil\ngesture of friendship. A rabid monarchist, von\nBock is one of the figures in Germany today\nwhom the world can ill afford to lose sight of.\nVon Brauchitsch is a more compromising\nman than the iron-hard von Bock; for that\nreason he was able to cooperate with the\nNazis more fully and attained the highest\npost in the army. How deep-seated is the discontent among the generals is reflected in\nthe fact that lt was the weaker Brauchitsch\nwho first opposed Hitler and, when ousted,\nwas followed by his commanders ln the field.\nAll Gorman generals, however, are not\nJunkers. It is significant to note that most of\nthose who have stood by Hitler to date do not\ncome from Prussia. It does not mean that these\nmen\u2014such as Lecb and List (from Bavaria),\nRommel (from Wurtemberg) and Milch (formerly with the Luftwaffe)\u2014are any more\nfavorably inclined to Hiller and the party. But\nbeing less politically minded than the cohesive Prussian group, they have not acted\nso instantaneously to prepare for their own\nsurvival in the political upheaval which will\ncome with defeat.\nIn the ascendancy now Is I general little\nknown to the world\u2014Alfred JodI, who il today\npersonal military adviser to the Fuehrer. Significantly enough, he is an Austrian, and\nspeaks with Hitler in the Austrian dialect.\nI.ess cold and hard, more imaginative than\nthe class-conscious Prussians, Hitler has always found in this general a spirit more akin\nto his own. General Alfred Jodl belongs to tbe\n\"new school\", whose guiding principles are\ndictated by Hitler's \"intuition.\"\nIh Germany there are developments of\nwhich the world must never lose sight for i\nmoment. The inner situation is once again\nforcing Hitler's hand. Aware of the real situation, the Prussian generals are pulling out\nto leave all the blame with Hitler.\nFor now Hitler must face not only tha\nanti-Hitlerist elements, but also the Old Prussian Guard. Both are eager for his overthrow, the first, to bring peace that will permit German cooperation in the world family\nof nations; the second, to bring peace, that it\nmay be a respite, another 20-year truce.\nVerse\nWAR, JANUARY, 1942\nThis is the sea-\nWave aftT wave, remorseless, grinding tha\nshore.\nClimbing, resistless, dragging all down to Hi\nmiw,\nThundering, shaking, sweeping the cliff away\nWith the shocking boom of its surge-\nHigh tide today.\nBut the tide will turn.\nAnd the sopping driftwqod burn.\nAye, it shall burn with a crackle of salt and\na sigh\nAnd the beach be clean the shining sands between;\nAnd everywhere stillness, sun and a quiet skv\nrATHEHINE A M CLARK\nGray Creek, B.
