THE ROAD TO BERLIN From the western front the shortest route to Berlin lies through Belgium crosses the Rhine at Cologne and continues north via Mindeu Hanover and Spandau The wear and tear of war doubtless has deteriorated the roadbed and the rolling stock It will be a long hard road to travel travelThere There is another and shorter road to the capital of the German Empire It lies in a straight line through the air airA A man on a suburban train was discussing the war I wish said he raising his voice that a thousand American bombing planes were going to drop bombs on Berlin at two oclock tomorrow afternoon afternoonThe The whole car stirred A thrill passed through every one at the thought The road to Berlin lies through the air airAny Any afternoon at two oclock that a thousand American bombing planes drop bombs on Berlin that afternoon at three oclock the war will be over overThe The bomb fest that will end the war is not as near as it should be But it is coming and the German high command knows it When it is over the waves above the Lusitauia will cease shrilling for vengeance and will gently murmur Peace New York Herald
