United Front

Under his leadership, the
morale of the officers and men
of the Regular Army has been
maintained and enhanced in
the face of some of the bitter
est hardships which our de-
tenders with the colors have
ever been called upon to endure.
Under his leadership, the
Army's splendid system Of
schools, established by General
Pershing after the Armistice,
has been saved from destruc-
tion by the blind and reckless
proposals of an inexperienced
and uninformed Director of the
Budget.
Under his leadership, the
Secretary of War and the
President have been given the
whole truth about the dan
gerous condition of our mill
tary establishment in spite Of
the obstinate efforts of Servile
bureaucrats to modify" the
record or suppress it alto
gether.
But General MacArthur's
gallant fight to save what re-
cent Republican administra-
tions have left Of the Army
has been made in complete dis
regard of its consequences to
him personally. Time and
again he has risked his COM
mand to keep the record
straight and the truth before
his Superiors. In so doing he
has made enemies for himself
whose hostility reflects credit
upon President Roosevelt and
Secretary Dern as we'll as upon
the chief of staff.
The Washington times., 1933-09-18

With that defeat, which
ranks with the victory Of the
ZuluS over the British in the
Battle of the Little Hand, in
South Africa, back in the
seventies, and with the Custer
massacre at the Little Big Horn,
the Berbers avenged the expul.
sion and slaughter Of the Arabs
by King Ferdinand and Queen
Isabella back about the time
that Columbus was setting out
to discover America. Just as
Ferdinand and Isabella expelled
the Arabs from Spain, so the
Berbers, kin to the Arabs in re-
ligion if not in blood, expelled
the Spanish from the pleasant
oaSes and cities of Morocco.

After all, the person who

Ceremonials Long Part
of VesseIs' Launching

The glories Of the fleets of Tyre are
described in the Bible; and there are
historical records that recite how re-
ligious pomp and ceremony were as
sociated with the ships of ancient
Egypt, r. G. Skerrett writes, in an ar
ticle in the Grace Log, shipping mag
azine. The mythology Of that realm is
full Of the part played by deities In
watching over it's hardy mariners, and
no doubt priestly blessings were be-
slowed upon the ships Of state at the
time Of launching-at least that was
the assumption Of Du Sein and other
historians. At the battle Of Salamis,
the Greeks went into the fight Just
after the conclusion Of religious cere-
monies, which consisted of sacrifices
offered to all the gods and a special
libation to Zeus, the protector, and to
Posedon, ruler of the seas. In those
days, 1t was the common custom
among Greeks to name their vessels
after goddesses; and, as a further
Precipitation, the launching was made
the occasion Of religious ceremony
wine playing an important part In the
ritual.
