seething
with
uncertainty,
intrigue
and
general
confusion.
We
may
well
expect
that
there
will
be
many
problems
and
situations
to
be
faced.
There
may
be
events
which
we
do
not
understand
at
the
time.
Actions
may
be
taken
for
which
we
cannot
see
the
point.
The
more
cautious
will
wish
to
wait
and
see
before
expressing
opinions
even
on
actions
which
may
seem
at
the
time
to
be
inexplicable
and
even
unreasonable.
For
instance,
it
is
safe
to
assume
that,
behind
the
events
which
are
now
takiiwr
nlace
in
snnli
countries
as
Greece,
Italy
and
Belgium,
there
is"
more
than
meets
the
eye
and
ear.
We
can
but
accept
the
word
of
those
who
should
be
in
a
position
to
know
and
one
of
these
is
Premier
King
who-says
the
situation
is
serious.
Air
Arm
Takes
Over
.
.
.
While
the
ground
advance
has
slowed
its
tempo
for
the
moment
all
along
the
Western
Front,
it
is
worth
while
watching
what
the
Allies
are
doing
behind
the
German
linos.
The
nffpnjivn
is
still
driving
forward
by
air,
striking!
at
German.
sources
of
supply
and
lines'
ui
communications.
Increasingly
stiff,
tenacious
German
resistance
behind
defences
in
depth
reinforced
by
reserves
drained
from
somewhere;
rain,
sleet,
and
mud,
and
the
ever-recurring
problem
of
an
attacking
army
to
accumulate
supplies
for
a
fresh
advance
all
have
combined
to
hold
back
the
Allied
drive
on
the
ground.
This
is
just
the
time
and
situation
when
the
ability
to
reach
over
the
enemy's
lines
and
strike
at
his
supporting
areas
can
mean
the
most.
And
that
is
what
the
Allied
command
is
doing.
Bombers
are
so
damaging
railways
and
canals
serving
Germany
that
transport
may
be
blocked
for
weeks
or
even
months.
Blockbusters
are
hitting
industrial
targets.
And
as
a
profitable
by-product
of
these
operations
the
Allied
air
forces
are
destroying
enemy
planes
.
Thjs
ability
to
weaken
the
German
rear
when
the
frontal
advance
is
slowed
down
Or
halted
is
an
asset
which
the
Ajlies
possess
and
the
enemy
has
lost,
except
for
the
aimless
rlesf
the
rocket
weapons.
It
is
an
advance
which
may
not
show
immediate
effects
but
contributes
enormously
to
the
ultimate
decision.
