COMMENT TO PRESS
Attitude To Pacific War LONDON, September 24. Mr. Churchill’s declaration of Britain’s determination to fight in the Pacific has not entirely disposed of American apprehensions, said the U\S. Secretary of tlie Navy, Colonel Knox, addressing a Press conference in London. “You are thoroughly aware of tlie European war, but you are not nearly so well aware of the equally great war going on a long way from you,” he said. “I think the reverse is true of Americans. Both situations ought to be corrected.
“Nothing would be more disturbing to America’s growing confidence in the British relationship than for us to feel that once Hitler is disposed of you would feel that the job is done and that the rest, can be left to us. That must not happen and it. is up to the British Press to see that, it does not happen.” ■
