Show Views On The Invasion Quentin Reynolds, war corre spondent, contributes a pessimis-. pessimis-. tic prophecy of what will happen when the Anglo-Amerians invade 1 Europe. He adds up all the factors fac-tors that might mean losses and , disaster and tells us of the German Ger-man weapons and defenses. Shortly thereafter Lt. Gen. ' Omar Bradley, with an American . Infantry Division somewhere in England, declared that "this stuff about tremendous losses." in con nection with the invasion, "is tommyrot." Some people seem to think that the Bradley interview was designed de-signed to offset the Reynolds' doubt. Obviously, the outcome of the struggle will not be determined deter-mined by the weapons because both sides have good instruments of destruction. The decision will depend, we believe, upon the numbers of men engaged. If Gen. Eisenhower can throw an overwhelming force a-gainst a-gainst the Germans, gaining all the advantages that come from superior man-power, the battle will be won and there is no reason rea-son why our losses should be enormous. |
