That was Uie post- war schedule predicted last week. Flying time from London to the U.S. will be 15 hours. In all, some 300 persons a day will fly west- bound i with an equal number headed east) In luxury airliners capable of carrying up to 67 pass- enger?, plus heavy loads of mall and freight. T'n- picture of the plane pre- empting the passenger traffic of the steamship shortly after the war was drawn by Kdward Pear- son Warner, former Assistant Sec- retary of tha Navy, now vice chairman of the Civil Aeronautics Board.

Menace Of Spruce Sawfly Is Reduced Agriculture Minister Gardin- r said In the House of Cominoi . recently that the spruce nawfly, which has damaged large eastern lun i i stands, appeared to ho under control, with the scourge gradually being reduced in differ- ent areas. Some 800,000,000 parasites which combat tli .-.u.vfly have been distributed, and tha use of this method of fighting the post had proved successful. Now, the infestation was being reduced rather than spreading. The minister said no lueuns have been found of combatting attacks on hanfwood tree.: by bhs bronze birch borer, but his de- partment assisted in t.h salvag- ing of wood '..ft a, a result of the iniect'/i activities. THE WAR - WEEK Commentary on Current Events One Road Into Fortress Of Europe Lies Through Salonika and Balkans In the presently popular gaui of guessing where the Allies wilt strike against fortress Europe the li. ilk, tin generally and Salonika In particular have not beou ignored, states the New York Herald Tri- bune. A large fleet of American Liberators, hitting at Salonika's airdrome, have Just emphasized the strategic possibilities of the eastern Mediterranean, already brought into prominence by dip- lomatic and military activity In the Near Kast. Long Sea Haul Salonika is a familiar port of entry into the Interior of German- dominated Europe. It lies at the mouth of the. Vardar Valley, the most practicable route to the open country of northern Jugoslavia and the Hungarian plains. A victorious advance along that line would Jeopardize the whole southorn complex of Axis satellites Hun- gary, Croatia, Rumania and Bul- garia - and would also liberate Jugoslavia and Greece. It would menace Germany's access to Ru- manian oil and that important ar- tery of Axis traffic, the Danube. The uneasy political situation In the Ualkans could be capitalized upon by the Invaders, who would also have the aid of guerrilla arm- lea already In being. Moreover, the successful conquest of the Balkans would open many possi- bilities of direct attack upon Ger- many In a region where such at- tacks would have Immediate re- percussions upon thn fighting In Russia. But the Balkans da not form a comfortable theater of operations. The paucity of communications, whirl) would hamper Axis defens- es, would also militate against a rapid Allied advance. The terrain which enabled Serb and Croek guerrillas to keep the field long after their lands had been over- run, offers many possibilities for effective defensive operations by the enemy. And Salonika Itself, the best base for an advance into the Balkan*, lips at the end of a loni? sna haul from Alexandria (800 miles or more), nearly half of which is flanked by islands now In Axis hands. The Greek Island! The outer rim of these islands consists in the main of Crete, Sar- manto and Rhodes. It Is bard to sue how an expedition could reach Salonika unless this first linn of \xi-- defense was eliminated with ii< facilities for attacks by planes, lr:!it naval vessels and subinar- iv.. To what extent the many islands of the Grnok archlpolago, lyinK north of the first three, have also been prepared as bases for harassing convoys. Is not known to the public. To put It mildly, however, It may lie assumed that Hitler U ready to make naviga- tion of the route to Salonika dif- ficult and costly. Hut If the liases on Crete and tho larger Dodec- anese Islands are turned against their present possessors, tho less- er iiuUiiiicivs might be neutralized. In all, an attack upon Salonika Is clearly hazardous and complex, unless Tiirkoy should enter the war against the Axis or the military potential of Germany .should be so depleted In the great air battles over western Kurope as to leave the southern flanl of her Kurop- ean position weakened and over- extended. Neither of these ars Impossibilities; both Intensify the critical nature of these present liays of preparation nnd suspcnca. Two-Way Pay-Off The distance in '... Kngland and North Africa, say* tlm Buffalo SIDE GLANCES By Galbraith Courier-Express, Is about 1,260 miles by air an easy flight for long-range planes. They've cover- ed the route many times, carrying troops and high-ranking Allied of- flclnls. Now British planes have made, It Into a bombing run with a two-way payoff. Tile British Air Ministry has Just disclosed that soveral squadrons of Lancaster bombers have completed a round-trip flight from England to Africa, bombing the old Zep- pelin works at Frledrlchshafen on the way down and the big Italian port of La Spezla an the way back after refueling and replenishing the bomb racks. Shuttle System This irew technique Is important In that the bombers don't have to fight their way back hrough alert- ed enemy defences after attacking their target. They just keep going, heading for pre-designated air- fields at the ends of the England- North Africa run. In addition, the straight-line overland route allows them to attack targets at any point along the way without the neces- sity of flying so many long miles back home. For example, if a tar- get Is 700 miles from England, the round trip would be 1400 miles. This way the bombers travel 1,250 miles on each run. This new British shuttle system brings out another valuable angle of the Allied conquest of North Africa. The Axis may have the shorter communication lines when It comes to invasion but the Axis is very definitely In the middle when it rnmes to aerial bombard- ment.

Late in May the Japs launched a major offensive Into Hunan province In an effort to capture one of free China's last remaining rice fields. This is the area west of Tunking Lake. It this offensive had succeeded, China might possibly hav been driven out of the war. The crop In the Tunking Lake rice bowl this year Is a bountiful one. When kar- rested in July it can be used to make up for the food deficiencies which result from poor crops In other major rice producing sec- tions. * The Japs timed their offensive so as to turn the 5,300 square miles of rice land into a battlefield and ruin the harvest. They had in mind tod that it could be developed into a direct assault on Chung- king Itself. But the Chinese, show- ing a new offensive spirit and aid- ed by the Chinese and American air forces, stopped the Japs cold and embarked upon a counter- offensive of their own. If they can hold th Japs back for another month, it will give the Chinese peasants a chance to harvest their rice and prevent starvation for per- haps millions this winter.
