DEAR JANIE-

MOST OF WORLD IS AT WAR

YOU will see from map how large a part of the world is engaged in war. All but two of the Great Powers-the U.S.A. and Tialy being the exceptions are fighting in one or other of the three wars which are in progress.

Take our war first. On one side are the mighty Empires of France and Britain. The British Empire covers a quarter of the world's land surface, its area being about 14 million square miles. Its population num- bers more than 500 milion-which is a quarter of the inhabitants of the world. France's Empire has 107 million people in its 4,336,000 square miles,

On the other side is Greater Germany which occupies a greater con- tinuous land area than`afy state in Europe except Russia. Including Wes- tern Poland, Slovakia, the Czech State, and Austria, the Germany of to-day covers 321,575 square miles and has a population of more than 104 millions. But Poles and Czechs are anti-Ilftler and the Slovaks cannot be relied on by the Nazis. Many of these Slavs are fighting to-day on our side.

Then there is Stalin's war against Finland. The U.S.B.R. covers a sixth of the world's land surface and has the advantage of being one con- tinuous area, unlike any other great Empire. Its peoples number more than 180 millions. Finland has 2,800,000 people.
