ANALYZING the WAR NEWS By DLWITT MacKKNZlE

Associated Press War Analyst

There's better news today from the furious battle of the Anzio-Nettuno beachhead below Rome as a reward for those whose faith stood up during the trying days of last week.

The American-British force has regained the initiative, at least in part, and has been attacking the surrounding Germans with great violence. That's an encouraging sign, but It shouldn't be taken as necessarily meaning that the crisis has been passed.

Our greatest need apparently is a spell of good flying weather to en­able the Allied air force, with its heavy superiority, to get into full action. The battle may turn on air power.

Meanwhile, our Yankee forces in the Cassino sector to the south are extending their efforts to smash through this tough spot, and are reported to have made some progress. A break-through here

and Mrs. Albert Wadsworth, Is |iijwould tend to relieve the Hitlerite of grip.

Mr. and Mrs. Morris Wetsel and family moved during the week-end from the Weeper property, East Main Street, this village, to their newly erected home at Glenville Gardens, near Scotia.

which is holding up the general ad­vance.

One reason we haven't been able to take this heavily fortified town is because we have refrained—at least until now—from shelling the famous monastery which looks down on our forces from a hill-top and is being used by the enemy as an artillery post. However, stern necessities of war may force us to bombard it. The Nazi controlled radio says we already have started, though there has been no confirma­tion.

The other tense spot in the Eur­opean war is Finland. The peals of triumph in Moscow over the cap­ture of Luga arc knells of tragedy for the Finns, whose hour of reck

Willkie Sees Expansion Of Trade on West Coast

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 14.—UP) —A great opportunity for expan­sion of industry and increasing world trade will be provided the Pacific Coast after Japan's fate ls sealed, Wendell Willkie declared in a radio speech here last night.

The former Republican Presiden­t i a l candidate who is seeking the '1944 nomination said, in what he termed a non-political talk, it "would be tragically easy for this opportunity to be kicked away."

'To a significant and unique de­gree opportunity is yours—yours on a great scale," be told the people of the West.

This great expansion for western industry, envisioned by Willkie was predicated on the expectation that once Japan is beaten "we will have a friendly and free China, all of southern Asia and all of India awakening from its deep sleep, eager to join with us to help make the world both prosperous and peaceful.

"To me this means a new orien­tation in world trade—it means that the almost- exclusive emphasis which, for three centuries has made the Atlantic the world's greatest shipping highway, will move more to that larger ocean, whose surf thunders on the western shores of the United States."

MacArthur Figures Prominently ,_ - I n GOP 1944 Campaign pj.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 11—UPt-Gen. Douglas MacArthur may fig­ure in this year's presidential cam­paign as a potential cabinet mem­ber or military adviser if bis friends fail to convince the Re­publican convention it ought to draft him as a candidate.

There is a growing disposition among party leaders t o concede that .MacArthur, whose name has been entered in the Illinois prefer­ential primary, will be a factor at the convention. But few go so far as Senator Vandenberg (R.-Mlch.), In believing that tbe Southwest Pa­cific commander might be drafted for the nomination.

While doubting that this would develop sufficiently for a successful draft movement, he said it was not at all unlikely that the party nom­inee, whoever he might be, might want to bring Mac-Arthur's name into tbe campaign. He might pro­pose him as secretary of war—a post traditionally held by a civil­ian—as Army chief of staff or as presidential military adviser in a capacity now filled by Admiral Wll-Ham D. Leahy.

How would you like to start all over again in these times?

HIGH COSTS, rising taxes and the resulting lower profits make the re­placement of your CAPITAL in the form of MONEY and SECURITIES almost impossible today.

At one time if a loss through a dis­honest act of an employe or an out­sider wiped out part or all of your most liquid assets (MONEY and SECURITIES), you could begin-al l over again and mak£ it back. How would you like to do it in these t imes?

THE MORAL: Protect the MONEY and SECURITIES you have already acquired against all risks—dishonest acts, fire, destruction—even mysteri­ous disappearance.
