NO LOSS OF POWER
CHURCHILL OR GOVERNMENT
VIEWS OF AMERICAN OFFICIALS JAPANESE ATTACK ON AUSTRALIA UNLIKELY N«w York, Aug. 2«^ In the “New York Times,” Arthur Krock says that high-ranking officials who have just returned from Britain and who had access to most confidential sources express the following views on the general war situation: Britain: Mr Churchill is stronger than ever. His Government does not face any loss of power or office while the resolution of the British people has never been stronger than now. Egypt: Reserves, sanguinary battles and narrow esecapes from disaster may be expected, nevertheless militarists are confident that they can maintain air supremacy and thus win through. Mr Churchill, who found M. Stalin wholly co-operative. learned more about Russian military matters than he or any other statesman previously knew. According to this information the Russians expect to hold the Caucasus and also maintain a winter stand, probably along the Volga. Pacific:- Following the American naval offensive the Japanese won’t trj to attack Australia or India. — 8.0.W*
