He constructed the 478 mile road, through mountain junbles, across swamps, spanning 400 streams or rivers and solving every conceivable kind of engineering problem. "The first convoy, made up of 100 trucks, loaded with supplies for China, sets out, with Gen. Pike fittingly at its heads. "At Myitkyina junction is made with the Burma Road. The successful operation of the Ledo Road means that all of Burma will be rendered useless to the Japs." scenes of Pigs Point on the Burma Road opened, 1st convoy goes into Myitkyina (2) Chinese Flee Jap Terror - "Chinese civilians, hundreds of thousands of them, plod along choked roads, retreating from the modernly-equipped armies of the Japs.

Dewey makes the speech of the evening, in which he lauds America's productive capacity, and states that peace must be the aim of everyone."

(5) Honorable Discharge - "Dogs of the famous K-9 Corps go through an intensive 'toughening up process' to fit them for military duty. When honorably discharged, they loaf for two months on a Dude Ranch, getting 'domisticated' for a return to civilian life." scenes of dogs watch newsreel of Hitler on motion picture screen, trained to bark right into 'Der Fuhrer's Face' but now come home; (6) Notre Dame Cagers Beat N.Y.U. college basketball.
