SCORNFUL OF JAPAN'S NAVY Behind the scenes in the United States navy there are two schools of thought regarding the danger of war with the Japanese. Both of them agree, however, regarding its outcome. out-come. One school, made up of younger officers who have served recently in the Far East, has developed a scorn for Japanese sea power, declares that Japan never has met a first class navy, that annihilation of her fleet would be a matter of two or three months. They cite especially the Japanese effort to reduce the Woosung forts protecting Shanghai in 1932, when the aim of Japan's big naval guns was so poor that for a while American Ameri-can photographers stood on top of the fortifications taking pictures of the bombardment. The other school of thought is composed com-posed of older officers who are specialists spe-cialists in naval tactics. They have figured out the time necessary to move the fleet from Hawaii, to establish es-tablish a large enough garrison to protect the Philippines, and to prepare pre-pare for meeting the Japanese fleet in its own waters. To do all this they want at least a vear Both groups agree that the United States would come out on top, but they disagree widely on the time required for victory. ' It is extremely important to note that both groups are assuming the British fleet would remain, on guard in the Atlantic and the United States would not face the job of protecting Latin Arrferica from Hitler simultaneously simul-taneously with the attack by the Japanese. This is one reason whv m younger naval officers definitely fa-vor fa-vor an aggressive policy toward Ja-pan Ja-pan now. They argue that this would be the surest means not only of helping the British, but also of pel-"shingoff pel-"shingoff an a!most certajn at a time when the Atlantic still is protected. thfttn! 7 NaVaI rep0rts indicat from?
