Simpson, Associated Press War Analyst Events within Germany and Japan that have rocked the war weary world with breathless speculation could hold u more certain clue to the probable duration of the struggle, not only in Europe but beyond the Pac- ific, than the wur progress maps themselves yet reveal. The fall of the Tofo war cabinet in Tokyo was born of cumulative Japanese defeats in the Pacific and frustration in Chino. There is reuou, loo, for assuming that it also reflects acceptance by Japan's military caste, even bcforc Hitler's escape from death at f‘ hands clinched it, of the fact that their Nazi war accomplice is doomed. ‘The Tojo ministry, authors of that ill os-nencd Nnsl-Nippoucsc sl- llancc, has paid the price for its utter mlsjiraigmenf of the scene In war- wracked Europe as wcll as its own bitter defeats. New national lielms- nrcn have been summoned by Imperial decree to salvage what they could from the wreckage of Japanese conquest hopes. IIow they will attempt it ls still to be revealed. but the task assigned (hem is clear. It is not to seal a victory but to find somehow, somewhere an escape from total defeat. ‘ It ls an inescapable conclusion that Tokyo's cabinet crlsls stemmed in part out of more intimate knowledge of the seething under-current. of anti-Nazi revolt in‘ Germany than any other government possessed. Communication between Tokyo and Berlin has been retained even though hope of actual contact between the two ends of the Axis long ago dicil. The world learned of that internal crisis in Germany certainly only when Nazi broadcasts told of the attempted assassination of Iliiler. Jap- nn well may have known fur weeks or even mouths that it was brewing. The fall of Tolo synchronized too closclv with Nazi revelation of rising panic over disaffectlon on the home front and even among the fighting force; being rolled back by the offensive avalanche to doubt some connection. ' By cvcry military dictum word not alone of the attack on Hitler but of ii situation cven within Gennan armies approaching open warfare be- tween their Nazi ‘ ’ and echelons and the non-political commanders and troops should have been withheld from external enemies. but. it was nut. Hitler and his panic-stricken Nazi associates dared not delay in ol- erflng party police cohorts, breathing rllrc threats of a new orgy of "purge" blond-letting. ordering out-of-hand executions. The radio. and Hitler's own voice over ll. afforded the only means of reaching not only all Germany but troops afar in the field oulclrly enough.

While roundabout reports told of a purge of German generals and the wholesale shakeup com- mands, Mr. Churchill asserted: "There are grave signs of iveak- ness in Germany. They are in a great turmoil inside and none can measure the extent." Mr. Churchill spoke to about 500 men who surrounded him af- ter his plane lnnded nt an RAF‘ flying field in Normandy.
