Gabriel Heater, who says he is not given to guessing, but who guesses just the same, though~he ,resorts to. a left-handed way in déthg'it, said-‘Sunday night: he will not be surprige?’ if the war ay ‘Europe will be over in 30-days. Drew Péarson, who is not so careful in what he predicts, and frequently has to cover up, declared that European hastili- | ties will cease some time in April. re. The fact is, judging from the slight with which the Allies, tance he Rhine, have met in the last few days, the war may come to an end at any mo- nent, which, though an indefinite state- ent, is exceedingly apt and applicable in is case. Mr, Heater further said, in comment- ge on the lack of enemy resistance, that Hitler m rave a surprise in store for the \llie ‘ha surprise may be sprung, but are thas cae is SON reat for \ nation $i CRE of hemes We! ngs, and, Morn wat ineothe me Way as & wvorn,out, Germany$five years and seven months s the Jnost powerful military>ma- | chine the world had ever known, but, from | cho first moment that that machine struck, wearing out set in and has | he process of ; been continuing with ever-increasing de- | terioration since then. There may remain other “flashes in the pan”, similar to the one on the western front last fall, but Germany is so worn out militarily she has neither the troops nor the equipment to launch a counter offens- ive of great power.
