This article presents information on political conditions in the world in July 1944. Whether or not reports of actual civil war are confirmed, Germany has reached a crisis comparable to that of September 1918 a crisis which may prove the prelude to collapse. The Allied leaders certainly will not consent to any terms that leave German militarism a chance to recover. The overthrow of Hideki Tojo, Japanese general and statesman, will undoubtedly have a profound influence on the course of the Pacific war. Tojo's enforced resignation indicates that the recent defeats in India, the South Pacific and Saipan, have sufficiently overshadowed his earlier victories in the Japanese mind to make him a liability rather than an asset to morale.
