This time the 'Nazies were apparently caught completty by sur- prise by the far reaching assault but when they have time to reform their lines and bring up their troops can be expected to offer fierce resistance ai tiie war to them is a battle for exi»- tance, Hitler having sold them on the idea that defeat means the wiping off of tiermany from t»)e map and tht end of Cerman existance. The most significant thing about thfe invasion w as its perfect timing and our super- iority in the air. This was not so at tiie beginning of the war. Lack of air superiority were the causes of the le feats at Pearl Harbor and in the 'hillipines and Corrigidor.

Ar« I Well the P-Day haa arrived and ap­parently oar forces are pushing beck the enemy on all points on a 100 mile front where the landings were made* in France However it Is too early to be optimistic as we well remember that the same easy auccess prevailed

'" 'on our first landings on Italy until ' i we encountered .S'azi resistance in

j force at Cassino and the Nazi Beach-»head which it took us four months to overcome with an estimated loss of some oofiOo killed, wounded and missing. This time the 'Nazies were apparently caught completty by sur­prise by the far reaching assault but when they have time to reform their lines and bring up their troops can be expected to offer fierce resistance a i tiie war to them is a battle for exi»-tance, Hitler having sold them on the idea that defeat means the wiping off of t iermany from t»)e map and th t end of Cerman existance. The most significant thing about thfe invasion w as its perfect timing and our super­iority in the air. This was not so at tiie beginning of the war. Lack of a i r superiority were the causes of the le feats at Pearl Harbor and in the 'hillipines and Corrigidor.

THE MICHIGAN MfftftOR

The oomrnittee submitted recom-mendations^ both of which were ap-proved, whereby the institute would sponsor training courses to be held late in the year at Michigan State College and would emphasize educ­ational study through loan of techni-.:.:1 books and literature by the Mich­igan State Library. Lansing.

This mlormational and educational function, however, is not enough in minds of many county officials who look upon the institute as a defender of their interests and hence an agency to be utehzed to favor or oppo.se leg­islation or political issues that are, in their sincere judgement, inimical to tiie welfare of local governments.
