GEN. EIsENHowER's JOKE

Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, lead CT of the African expedition, has a rich sense of humor as well as the qualities of military leadership. Here is a story he tells on himself
 While in Washington some time ago. a newly commissioned cello phane captain had asked to have a telephone installed, and when it was late, he hit the ceiling Calling the staff sergeant on another line, the captain proceeded to give him the bawling out of his life.
 Finally a voice at the other end said: Do you know who you're talking to?"
 There was pause. Finally the captain replied: "Who?"
 This is General Eisenhower.
 Another pause.
 General, do you know who you are talking to?", asked the captain
 No"
 Thank God for that!" said the captain, who apparently remem- bered the gag from Panama Hat tie"

the Undersecretary of State, and Lend-Lease Administrator Ed Stet- tinius.
 Some time ago, Eberstadt, ap- pointed as chief of WIPE Export Priorities, Major Tom Armstrong, of Standard Oil of New Jersey, who had operated in various Latin Am erican countries. Armstrong had been vigorous in bucking the de- velopment of Latin American Gov ernment- owned oil companies, and the Latin Americans don't like him. Therefore, they squawked when they heard he would now sit in the all- important priorities position where he could decide whether they could, or could not, receive oil equipment to develop their government-owned industries in competition with Stan dard and private companies.
 Undersecretary of State Welles agreed with the Latin Americans, and protested to the President. So did Vice President Wallace of the BEW, and also Stettinius, who buys lend-lease oil equipment for Latin American governments.
 AS a result of these protests, Roosevelt ordered Donald Nelson to dismiss Major Armstrong. How ever Eberstadt in effect has over ruled the President. He insisted that Armstrong remain. And he is still on the job.

very adroit in handling Gen. Gi- raud, who escaped from France dressed as an old woman and who now is in command of French forces in North Africa.
 Actually, Gen Giraud expected to be commander of all forces in North Africa, both French and American. He is one of the highest generals in the French army, and before France fell, would have re- placed Gen. Gamelin as Chief of Staff had he not been taken pris- oner. Therefore, since he outranks Eisenhower and has had much more varied experience, it is not unnatural that Giraud should as pire to be commander -in-chief of the entire North African operation. including the US, Army.
 Eisenhower, however, h as a charming personality, a broad grin, a smattering of French, and had little trouble in handling Gen. Giraud
 Anotler complication was the fact that Giraud hates Admiral Darlan. Yet Darlan, as a member of the cabinet, outranks him In addition, there is Gen. Nogues, an- other top-ranking officer So it has been worked out that Nogues com mands the French civil population, Giraud the French Army, an Darlan the French fleet.
