He is still a long way from the Philip- I pines, where his heart and his hopes beckon. Vic- tory over the Japanese is far off. This victory can- not be won by a “holding strategy” but only by at- tacks on an immense scale. But if the enemy has not been rolled back, he | has been stopped from going farther. Despite in- sufficient force and war material, Australia, marked for invasion, base for the decisive battles to come. In the Coral Sea and in the Solomons the Japanese have been balked in their plan to cut the American line of | communications with Australia. With air force alone MacArthur has driven the enemy from entrenched positions on land and has waged an extraordinarily fruitful campaign of destruction against enemy ship- | ping. The battle of the Bismarck Sea is the most | | spectacular example of his methods; the invention not of necessity alone but of new and bold con- cepts of warfare.
