GRAVE FOR JAPAN
WAR OUTLOOK AS SEEN IN TOKIO
“IN SPITE OF AMERICAN
DEFEATS”
CALL FOR DESPERATE EFFORTS
(By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright? NEW YORK, December 14.
“The Allied resources are limitless, and it cannot be said that the Japanese Navy has the situation under complete control,'’ said the Tokio official radio, reviewing developments in the war. The enemy has gradually advanced his bases to Bougainville Island and the Gilbert Group, and now, step by step, is closing in on our strategic points. “To ensure that the third year of war brings victory the 100,000,000 Japanese must exert the most desperate efforts. The Allies in spite of the American defeats, are continuing their advance most persistently. The war situation manifests a grave aspect for Japan. “The Japanese all-out march to certain victory is being continued, but the British and Americans are a great enemy indeed. At one time they were the greatest nations that had ever existed on this earth. They are now carrying out frantic counter-offensives from various directions, and the fighting is turning into a great battle showing the most serious aspects of the war.”
