ITALY TO RUSSIA
Shuttle-Bombing Of Reich Imminent (Received January 18, 11.0 p.m.) NEW YORK, January 18. Japanese reaction to American penetration in the Pacific had been highly erratic ,aid General Arnold, in a speech Strong bids to break American supremacy had been followed by periods of complete inaction. The Japanese did not seem to possess any strategic plan for defence, but counter-attacked haphazardly, as if they sensed nothing could prevent the increasing penetration. “Germany, however, will fight to the last ditch hoping to salvage something from the war. The Allies’ progress in Italy and the Russian advance from the east make the shuttle bombing of Germany an imminent, possibility. Planes will take off from Italy, bomb German occupied areas, land in Russia for fuel and more bombs, and make a second attack on the way back to Italy. )
