Vesuvius is an active volcano but
Fujiyama. the almost perfect cone 60
miles southwest of Tokyo, has been in-
active since 1907.
For days and weeks there was deep
mystification about that operation,
and some of the explanations thought
up by the experts were wonderful—

Oklahoma, Garfield, Muskogee. Pitts-
burg. Blaine. Custer, Greer, Kiowa,
Lincoln, Logan. Payne, Seminole, Ok-

The centers will be sponsored locally
by county and city school superin-
tendents in co-operation with civic
and patriotic organizations.

as the snow piles ever deper.
The Russians enjoy as great an ad-
vantage in winter equipment as the
Germans had with their masses of
highway and asphalting of about
three-quarters of a mile on the same
road. The new road will have con-
crete shoulders and an asphalt sur-
face on gravel base. The total cost is
$59,080, with the WPA to provide
$28,106, and the county $30,974.

tanks during the summer. Not only-
do tanks flounder and stop in the
deep snow off the highways, but the
terrific cold makes it difficult to keep
any kind of motor running, and re-
pairs are next to impossible when the
air carries frostbite.
Dispatches tell of the famous’ Rus-
sian cavalry circling through other-
wise impenetrable country to strike
the German lines of supply, and of ski
troops slipping through a night to
harass their miserable opponents.
Modern cavalry is not wasted often
in the old-fashioned, headlong charge,
but the Russians are proving the
horse troops still can play an im-
portant part in war, given the right
conditions.
Tile cavalry saber has given way to
a ommy-gun or a repeating rifle, and
its owner knows how to fight afoot.
He is another of the millions of
specialists in uniform.

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—(Wide
World.)—It has been estimated that
for modern assault purposes one of
Britain’s super- trained commandos or
a single hard-bitten, skilled parachute
trooper is worth three to five ordinary
enlisted men.
This might be a slight exaggeretion
in some cases, but it reflects the trend
in the present war toward the sharp,
spectacular. desperate assault carried
out with split-second timing by teams
of specialists.
The Nazis showed an amazed world
what such men and such tactics could
accomplish in their quick capture of
Belgium’s great system of fortifica-
tions along the Albert canal.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22,—(P)—Sen-
ator W. Lee O'Daniel (D., Texas) who
came here six months ago to serve
out the unexpired term of the late
Morris Sheppard, said Wednesday
night he would be a candidate for re-
election this year.
In making the announcement he
strongly urged Texans to pay their
poll taxes so they would be eligible
to vote in the state's Democratic pri-
mary elections.
' Although eye-witness accounts of
the fighting in the early stages of the
' Philippine invasion were fragmentary.
It was obvious that the Japanese
landed tough, seasoned men to lead
, the attack on General MacArthur's
outnumbered army.

Once they got a foothold they knew

. ers gained control overhead and suf-
ficient tanks could be landed to push

nila to their last ditch stand in

zens in a democracy.

The finest natural cover — trees,

.Azainst a modern attack force using
bombers, tanks and determined in-
‘eenious infantry. The Russians learned
that the only thing sure to stop a
tank was another tank, preferably a
■ heavier one. Anti-tank guns and gre-
nades help, but they don't turn back a
' charge of, say, 100 tanks on a single
1 point.
• From all accounts, one of the most
, spectacular engagements of the war
was fought in the early days of the
, second British sweep into Libya, when
hundreds of tanks clashed and ma-
. neuvered and clashed again over
hundreds of square miles of desert.

The great battle broke off only when

, and they proved their worth.
