...industry that often seems to roll its profit margins thinner year by year, far outstripped its 3.5% sales increase with a 14% rise in earnings to $171 million. To fatten sales as well, Bethlehem is pushing an invasion of the Midwest with a $500 million expansion of its Burns Harbor plant near Chicago, long a virtual fiefdom of Inland Steel...
...Japan moved into the region in 1941, thereby gaining a commanding geographical position in South-east Asia-to say nothing of a wealth of rubber resources-the U.S. considered the situation threatening enough to freeze all Japanese assets. Japan's countermove came just four months later-at Pearl Harbor...

For example, before Pearl Harbor, he told an incredulous correspondent, TIME'S Robert Sherrod, that in a future Pacific war, the role of heavy long-range bombers would be decisive. As it turned out, the B-17s produced no early miracles. After the Battle of Midway ("the closest squeak and the greatest victory"), it was clear to Marshall that the Navy's carrier-based fighter-bombers were the big weapon against Japan...
