Show VIEWS GIVEN ON THE INVASION Quentin Reynolds, war correspondent, corre-spondent, contributes a pessimistic prophecy of what will happen when the Anglo-Americans invade Europe. He adds up all the factors that might mean losses and disas. ter and tells us of the German weapons and defenses. Shortly thereafter Lt. Gen. Omar Om-ar Bradley, with an American Infantry In-fantry Division Somewhere in England, declared that "this stuff about tremendous losses," in connection con-nection with the invasion, "is tom- myrot. Some people seem to think that the Bradley interview was designed design-ed to offset the Reynolds' doubt. Obviously, the outcome of the struggle will not be determined by the weapons because both sides have good instruments of destruction. destruc-tion. The decision will depend, we believe, be-lieve, upon the numbers of men engaged. If Gen. Eisenhower can throw an overwhelming force against the Germans, gaining all the advantages that come from superior su-perior manpower, the battle will be won and there is no reason why our losses should be enormous. |
