Yanks Heroism in Battle
Fore+eIIs Disaster TO Axis
By DOROTHY THOMPSON

THE President had much 10 be
i thankful for on his siXticth
birthday, in spite of the fact that
seven weeks ago the outlook for
him was bad.
Considering the disaster Of
the initial blow seven weeks ago,
occurring when the public mind
was unprepared and the nation
divided; considering the imme-
date effect of that blow and the
humiliation of il, and the way
in which it diSsipated all calcu-
lationS, America is again show
ing her remarkable recuperatIve
power.
If PEARL HARBOR wrote a
L disgraceful chapter of Amer
lean history. the investigation
and the publication of the report
openly, for all the world to read
was an act of civil courage that
contributes more 10 the morale
of free people than any white
wash could ever do.
At least. we didn't hear that
General Short had heart disease
or that Admiral kimmcl had
apoplcXy.
If Pearl Harbor was a morale
debacle, representing all the
worst aspects of the American

eouSneSS. lack of the Co-opera-
tive spirit and Of thoroughneSS,
and rcSponsibility--the Philip
pine resistance will go down
among the great epiCS of Amer
lean history.
There, a great general, Doug

admiral, Thomas G. Hart. arc

where hardly more than a delay
ing action can be hoped for;
buying with their heroiSm pre-
ClouS time for others; displaying
that efficient coordination, swift,
wary energy and SclfleSS devo-
tion that were lacking at Pearl
Harbor. and winning the eternal
gratitude of the American nation.
They keep the spirit and tao
tic of the offensive. even against
overwhelming odds, for wher-
ever the enemy displays the
slightest weakness they attack
at that point.
