FIGHTING WORD

Morale is the word, and ]
might have known I'd have to do
a column on it sooner or later.
Civilians are forever writing a.
bout it, worrying about it, and
trying to do something about it.
Funny thing, but most of these
kind and loving people do not un-
derstand what morale is.
Good morale" said a friend OF
mine, els getting six letters day
seven days week." That, ]
thought, was about as near a per-
feet explanation of morale had
ever heard. There exists many
factors which combine to con-
tribute to a soldiers morale, and
of these, undoubtedly one of the
greatest is mail.
But mail isn't all; it's much
deeper than that. Morale, in a
manner Of speaking, is a soldiers
fourth dimension. It's there, but
you can't see or measure it. Ar
my brass hats tell you that Ma
pleon figured morale three times
as effective, or important, as
physical condition. Our own ar
my chiefs subscribe to this the
DRY, and the morale branch of the
service is laboring overtime. Get
ting results, too.
Civilians, at the very beginning
got morale confused with enter
tainment. They thought all they
had to do to. make a soldier hap
py was to provide him with, say,
facilities for a ping pong game
with one of his buddies. They
forgotten maybe they never
knew-that this soldier stumbled
over ping pong balls every time
he entered his company's day
room or visited the post service
club. Certainly this soldier would
not be in search of entertainment
of the variety that he could find
in camp.
At town near Camp Forrest a
surprisingly large group of we'll
meaning old ladies have decided
it is their patriotic duty to "treat"
the service men who visit their
fair city on week-ends.' This
doesn't sound bad on the sur
face, but wait On Saturday
night their respective guests are
duty bound to attend some bor-
ing social affair for oldsters, sit
in on a bridge game with the
towns spinsters and retire ear
ly. The next morning the ''boys"
are cooed out of bed and ushered
up the street for Sunday school
and church. After lunch, the
boys are again driven over to
church and for two never-ending
hours they listen to middle-aged
choir sing hymns and five-year-
Odds recite poems. Sunday night
there is a perfectly delightful
program being given at the school
house for the soldiers, and you
really must >stay for that" And
to show their appreciation for the
meals they ate, they really must
stay for it. AS the weekend
draws to a close, the boys wonder
why they ever bothered to leave
the post, where, if they had stay
ed, they could have had hell of
a lot of fun.
What, then, is it the soldier
wants? Well, it is very simple.
He wants some of the social con-
facts and advantages he had back
home. He wants the chance to
do some Of the things he used to
do on week-ends. He wants to
go to a dance Saturday night,
meet a lot of local girls and make
a date with one of them for Sun

even greater production must be

Steet DeneaJn the SllOulutl VI 9'et'1
highway Ill.
Officials of the training center
said the crash occurred about 10
pm, but it was almost noon Fri
dar before crew of half dozen men
succeeded in digging down to the
cockpit in which only a handful o'
ashes remained.
Parts of the steel wings and body
of the ship, some no larger thaa
confetti, were strewn several hun
dred yards up and down the high
way.
Hewitt, who had enrolled for the
refresher course given by Aeronaut-
ical Training center under the su-
pervision of the Royal Air Force.
was on a routine solo night flight,
and had been in the air only few
minutes.
CAUSE UNKNOWN
Flying school officials said cause
of the crash never will be known.
Apparently, the plane went out OF
control at a high altitude and plum
meted to earth so rapidly that HeT-
lit did not have time either to bail
out or warn the airport that he
was in trouble.
The smoulderng nose and cock
pit of the ship, and the rescua work
was viewed by scores of persons
who had been attracted to the scene.
From the manner in which the
plane burroWed into the hard
packed road shoulder, it appeared
likely that it was spinning furious
ly when it landed.
1t was the first serious accident
to occur to one of the RAF students
since Aeronautical Training center
was moved to the valley from the
coast last fall.
Young Hewitt lived in Nashville,
Tenn, and among the survivors are
his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. william
j. Hewitt, Sr.
Funeral arrangements are under
/ direction of B. E. Lemons mortuar3.

Australia, Macarthur as supreme
commander in the southwest Pacific
said that he would carry out Pres
ident RooSevelt'S instruction to or
ganize the unter-offenSiVe and
that he would return to the aid OF
his heroic men in the Philippines.
StilWell, taking command OF
American forces in China, India and
Burma and of Chinese armies fight
ing with the British in Burma, said
that the allies were going to carry
tie war to Tokyo.
The statements came from the
vital sectors of vast battlefront
on which the struggle for air Su-
periority still is paramount, with
American and Australian officers
emphasizing the need for more ano
more United States war planes.
The Importance of rushing Amer
lean war materials was also empha-
sized on other world fronts, includ-
inc the Near East where Turkish
dispatches indicated that major
axis drive into the rich oil lands
CT Irao and the Caucasus was eX-
pected soon.
Developments included:
AUSTRALIA - japanese planes
twice raided Port Moresby but lit
tie damage reported; enemy forces
cutting into New Guinea jungleS
behind Nazi-trained native guides
rot vet contacted by defense forces
but believed preparing airdromes
/ fol planes to support expected at
