Fall
of
Manila
.
.
.
Manila
has
been
taken
by
the
Japanese
and
things
look
rather
blue
for
the
British
and
American
forces
in
the
Pacific
area.
With
Hong
Kong
and
Manila
gone
there
remain
Singapore
and
Honolulu
to
uphold
the
British
and
American
prestige
in
the
Pacific.
The
fall
of
both
Hong
Kong
and
Manila
was
expected,
but
there
will
be
a
real
fight
before
the
other
two
strongholds
can
be
taken.
The
victories
all
along
the
line
in
Russia
compensate
for
the
lapses
in
the
Pacific.
In
order
to
turn
the
course
of
events
in
Europe
it
became
desirable
that
both
Britain
and
United
States
should
bring
strong
forces
to
bear
on
Germany
in
Russia.
Ever
since
Japan
entered
the
wai
the
attention
of
the
American
people
has
been
centred
on
the
Russian
frontier
as
being
the
most
immediately
important
enemy.
For
the
British
too,
considerable
heir
had
to
be
sent
to
Russia
and
the
pressure
on
Nortl
Africa
had
to
be
kept
up
so
that
Russia
might
not
suffer
the
full
force
of
the
German
offensive.
To
some
extent
this
accounts
for
the
rather
slow
responses
to
the
Japanese
attacks.
What
is
satisfactory
is
that
the
European
pressure
has
proved
effective
and
that,
for
the
first
time
since
the
war
began,
the
Germans
are
being
slowly
squeezed
back
and
sometimes
driven
back
rapidly.
Can
He
Do
It?
.
.
.
Adolf
Hitler
is
at
the
front
trying
to
stem
the
tide
of
Nazi
retreat.
He
will
find
it
very
difficult
to
attain
his
objective.
It
is
possible
that
he
may
be
a
magician
and
be
able
by
his
personal
magneticism
to
turn
a
prac
tical
rout
into
victory.
If
he
can
do
that
we
shall
look
upon
him
as
an
outstanding
personality.
If
he
fails
we
shall
feel
sure
that
his
power
has
gone.
What
Defeat
Means
.
.
.
What
the
taking
of
strategic
points
in
the
East
Indies
means
is
indicated
by
the
production
of
the
islands.
According
to
the
Royal
Bank,
99
percent
of
the
rubber
production
of
the
world
comes
from
the
war
area,
mostly
from
Malay,
India,
Burma
and
other
British
possessions
and
from
Indo-China
and
Thailand.
Of
the
world's
tin
.
output
about
75
percent
co'mes
from
the
same
area.
It
is
possible
too,
that
Australian
wool,
and
meat
deliveries
i
may'-be
hindered
as
well
as
Hawaiian
and
Philippine
l
sugar.
It
is
sure
that
already
the
deliveries
of
many
articles,
especially
tin
and
rubber,
are
curtailed
so
the
duty
of
saving
these
articles
to
the
fullest
possible
extent
is
the
duty
of
each
of
us,
especially
of
those
who
have
cars.

War
threatens
to
dim
temporarily
the
spotlight
on
the
United
States
sports
stage
but
if
it
does,
1911
gave
the
fans
a
thrill-packed
curtain
scene.
Upsets
and
near
upsets,
the
unbelievable
and
the
nexs
to-Impossible;
all
were
parts
of
a
mad
year
that
should
furnish
plenty
of
conversation
in
the
expected
lean
period
ahead.

was

Billy

skipping
to
his
comer
after
the
12th
round,
a
cocky
grin
on
his
Irish
pan
and

heavyweight
championship
in
his
left
hand.

for
just

There

baseball,
perhaps,
turned

of
