This will be welcome news for American tankme: in Germany, who have known for years that the Unitec states had no heavy tanks and that the Russians possess ed large quantities of an excellent heavy tank—the Jo seph Stalin III. Statements by Army Ordnance officials that the nev U. S. heavy tank—not yet in mass production—will ou. fiug and outtight any other tank in the world, are en- couraging, though no tine! evaluation can be based upor these preliminaty reports. In. the past, the American publie has found that such rosy predictions by our ord- nance officials have often proved fallacious and in ever) war to date, U tankmen have been forced figh their Hattles, in many instances, against. an enemy witl ‘superior tanks. The new U.S. heavy tank is known as the T-43 an mounts a 120-mm. gun, the largest ever used on an Ame. ican tank. It is said to be faster and more manoeuverabi than the Soviet Army’s Joseph Stalin III. Of course, the Joseph Stalin II] was the Russian heavy tank in Work War Il and what progress the Russians have made “to ward developing and perfecting a new heavy tank is no known in this country. If the Russians have been standing still and if U.S officials’ estimates of performance of the new U.S. heav tank are accurate, then the United States might indeec chaye the best heavy tank in the world. However, there i VW bood chance that Russian designers have not bee standing still and that the Russians also have an impro* ed heavy tank. It is worth remembering that, while the were considered to be superior designers of equipment, and were considered to have the best tanks ir the world at the outbreak of World War II, they ran int« Russian tanks that were their match and even more, in the invasion of Russia. It is also well to keep in mind that while the Russians were not considered to be great aeri: designers, they surprised the world in the Kore War with the best jet-fighter in existence. The Rus arc known to have thousands of heavy tanks available for immediate use. The United States has, none, The rosy predictions of the performance of our new heavy tank— yet to be built—are encouraging but they represent hop and opinion, while the Russians possess the actual equip ment. to German: military an jans We hear that industry is reducing production, on ac count of big inventories on hand, and this about disposes of the theory that abundant production will cause prices SLICE OF HAM 5630.000 Bet Vith Gamblers in Ghioe | | N Reven Re One Return JACKSONVIL ff $630,000 ig November ewark.
