Vows Allies lAjll Mn nr Vp Continued from Page 1 ler in attacking Russia had made one of tiie outstanding blunders of history, that the German and Italian forces in eastern Libya! faced complete destruction and that in the battle of the Atlantic ship- ping losses had decreased.

"We can already see after six months of fighting in Russia that Hitler has made one of the outstanding blunders in history and the results so far realized constitute events of cardinal importance in the final decision of the war," he said. (alls Suffering Indescribable "Hitler everywhere (in Russia) has been brought to a standstill on a large portion of the front the is in retreat and the sufferings of his troops are indescribable Winter, guerrillas, the Russian army and air force and the stubborn, unyielding resistance of the people have inflicted on the German armies and the German nation a bloody loss almost unequaled in the history of war." Starting off one of the major speeches of a war which now ex. tends to all the continents, he said of the Libyan situation: "On Nov. 18 Gen. Claude Auchin-leck set out to destroy the entire armed forces of the Germans and Italians in Cyrenaica (the eastern part of Libya).

Now, on Dec. 11, I am bound to say that it seems very probable he will do so The Ger man army in Libya is stubborn and in every way worthy of the tomb prepared for it." Of the sinking of the battleship Prince of Wales and the battle cruiser Repulse off Malaya, he said Prince of Wales was sunk by repeated attacks of bombing and torpedo-carrying planes and there was no reason to suppose that any new weapons or explosives had been employed. Seven of the attacking planes were destroyed, he said. He' said he could not discuss yet the results of the Far Eastern and Pacific situation to date or measures which mast be taken. "It may well be that we shall have to suffer very considerable punishment but we shall defend ourselves everywhere with utmost vigor and close co-operation with the United States and the Netherlands navies," he said.

None can underrate the gravity of the losses inflicted on tho United states or underrate the length of time lt will take to marshal the great forces necessary in the Far for absolute victory, he said. "The Japanese Government or the ruling elements of Japan made a cold-blooded, calculated, violent, treacherous attack on the United States and ourselves. "It seems to me quite certain that Japan hen she struck her treach erous blow at the United States counted upon the active support of the German Nazis and the Italian Fascists. Cites Naval Power "The naval power of Great Britain and the United States is largely superior to the combined forces of the three Axis Powers, but no one could underrate the gravity of the loss which had been inflicted in Malaya and Hawaii or the power of the new antagonist who has fallen upon us. "We must expect that the vol ume of American supply reaching Britain and the degree of help from the United States Navy will be reduced.

I cannot doubt that the 130,000,000 people of the United States have bound themselves to win this war and once they get settled down to it and bend themselves to it as their main purpose in life, that flow of munitions and aid of every kind will vastly exceed anything that could have been ex- pected up to the present."

The official announcement said that three Japanese planes were missing, "while two others dived headlong into enemy positions."

A German broadcast quoted Tokio as claiming the sinkint; of the 33.000-ton United States aircraft carrier Lexington off Hawaii. It was asserted further that five of a formation of seven American planes had been shot down in air attacks on Wake Island and that numerous "military objectives" had been destroyed. The Japanese Government Information Board said that 270 Americans and Britons had been detained in Tokio "as a precaution for their protection and well-being." Three to four newspapermen were in- It was asserted that only three Japanese planes were last in the attacks by which the British battleship Prince of Wales and battle cruiser Repulse were sunk, and Japanese naval planes, attacking the Kuatan air base in Malaya, destroyed ten British planes. It was asserted that other navy bombers destroyed a British freighter off eastern Malaya. Radio Vichy reported a Japanese naval admission that "a warship" had been sunk yesterday.

The Office of Production Management announced that henceforth all its press releases will carry that slogan. The cry takes its place beside "Remember the Alamo" and "Remember the Maine" of the 19th century wars. The Washington Post carried the slogan in black-faced type above its masthead in all editions this morning and will continue to do so indefinitely.
