Unified War Direction Declared
Allies Great Immediate Need
Delays Only Increase Price in Blood and Tears
We Eventually Must Poy, Moi. Eliot Asserts

ELIOT,

BY MAI. GEORGE FIELDING
ELIOT.
The great and growing need Of the
United Nations is for q unified direc-
ton of this war. Mere Anglo
American collaboration, however well
organized, will not do. Mere con-
sultation between heads of states
and their ministers carried out by
intermittent visits back and forth
over thousands of miles, will not do.
Mere statements of principles, un-
accompanied by machinery for
carrying those principles in to the
realm Of action. will not do.
What Is required Is definitely
organized and permanent supreme
war council representing all the
United Nations and possessing ade-
quate machinery for obtaining and
evaluating information and for
making plans and decisions based
thereon.
Circumstances from which there
is no escape require that this
supreme war council should have its
seat at Washington and be under
the Craftsmanship of the President
of the United States, who fortu-
nately possesses those qualities of
leadership and personal magnetism
which qualify him for this ire
mendous responsibility
This body must be political in
its basic composition, for the deci-
sions to be made are primarily po-
litical decisions. An inter-Allied
general staff, even were one to be
constituted representing all of the
powers concerned, still could not
function without combined politi-
cal directives 1t could not serve
half a dozen masters. The same
consideration applies to an inter-
Allied economic council.
Enemies Unity Cited.
We should remember that this Is
a peoples war. struggle between
two Numerically opposed concep-
tions Of the relationship Of the in
dividual to the state. Our enemies
posses q unified leadership which
is the very embodiment of the poll
tical principles which they are seek
ing to impose on the rest of the
world. We must likewise find . uni
ned and inspiring leadership for the
political philosophy of freedom
which we are In arms to defend.
AS against the enemy's complete
unity of command In each Of the
two compact geographical areas
within which he Is operating. we
must find means for unifying and CO.
ordinating the efforts OF Is separate
nations scattered over the face Of
the globe in order that we may make
the best use of our immediate and
future resources against him.
This is not = problem which can
be worked out over = long period OF
time. It is more necessary now
while our fighting power is still un-
developed and scattered, and while
the enemy is making his final bid
for victory. It is just this crucial
period Of the war in which 1t is OF
the most vital necessity that We
make the best possible use Of every
man and plane and ship and gun
that we must require unified leader

vidual governments do not like to
give up any portion of their power
and prerogatives by hearing their
decisions with others. 1t is easy
to rouse popular distrust. as within
any particular nation, against any
move in this direction. The history
of the World War is an eloquent
testimony to the truth of these
statements. Every device of delay
and obstruction was employed by
politicians and soldiers alike to re-
sist the pressure for q supreme war
council to undermine and sap its
powers when 1t was created and to
resist the appointment Of an inter-
Allied commander -in-chief for the
western front. Even after Foch had
been appointed, he always had to
proceed cautiously In his dealing
with the commanders-in-chief of
the armies under his control.
The solution OF the problem be-
fore us is not easy. 1t is not likely
to be attained in single move. or
in single day. Every sort of al
ward and will continue to be put
forward-just as in l917-1918 There
is, for example. school Of thought
which believes that a unified general
staff will be a sufficient answer
but this is in fact no answer at all
unless the supreme direction of po-
litical and economic affairs is to
be given in to the hands of the
military which, God forbid, because
soldiers are not by experience in
training equipped to deal with such
matters.

shrewdly, to expect Hank Holli-

to her naive deception.
IF we sit here all afternoon,

Hank helped her repack the

lively interest while she posed
Sonny on a rock and went TO

used might easily be construed
in a different light.

confusion and dropped down on

child was an angel. He sat as
still as the rock upon which he
was perched, only moving when

company To a man, the Igorots
died in their fox holes without
f1inching or thought of retreat,
but exacting a tremendous toll of
the Japanese.
To restore the situation, our
high command ordered an imme-
diate counterattack by a tank
unit supported by infantry. The
infantry soldiers were Igorots,
eager to even the score for their
lost tribesmen.
The bamboo jungle and the
heavy, irregular terrain of that
section of the front were almost
lmpenetrable, and apparently
made 1t impossible for the tanks
to operate. However, the limit
less reSourcefulnesS, which is an
outstanding characteristic of
Gen. MacArthur'S troops, imme-
dlately came into play.
Without a word, the Igorot
commander hoisted his men to
the tops of the tanks in order
that they might guide the ma
chimes through the matted
moraSs of the underbrush, the
thickets and the trees. The ex-
posed Igorot soldier on top of the
tank served as the eyes of the
American driver. The guide
Signalled the driver with a stick,
and with an automatic pistol

No Quarter Asked or Given.
"Bataan has seen many wild
mornings, but nothing to equal
this. No quarter was asked and
none was given. Always above
the din Of the battle rose the
fierce shouts of the Igorots as
they rode the tanks and fired
their pistols.
