SUPPLIES FROM CHINA
an optimistic note Time is of no advantage to Japan from this moment on. The only element of urgency in the Far Easterp war is° China, Writes the Washington correspondent of the Christian Science Monitor. The pressure on that battered and nearly exhausted ally must be relieved at the earliest possible moment. Plans for doing that are complete and firm. Relief is on the way. It will come in the form of an enormous increase in traffic “ over the hump and by way of the old Burma road. With the ending of the rams it will be possible to reorganise the whole air transport system on the basis of Myitkyina as the fuel and freight head. And the old hope of amphibious landings at the mouths of the Burma rivers is blossoming again. Ths back door to thina should be open wider than it ever was before by the end of the next dry season. The best is cheapest in the long run—order Kailangala coal. —Advt.
