Roosevelt warns of overconfidence in war effort amid aerial focus
The piece argues wartime warnings against overconfidence aim to prevent a letdown at home and on battlefields as air power dominates. It cites U S production of bombers and trainers surpassing a thousand last month, with Mustang the lone fighter singled out. Britain and USSR output described, totals over eleven thousand, and German/Italian output discussed. It notes doubts about Der Fuehrer’s near-term stability and dates the expected windup to May 1944. It also discusses Paul McNutt’s bid for Interior and political tensions in Washington.
