The identity Of the leader OF
the air raid had remained a
closely guarded secret. Just be-
fore pinninB the congressional
medal Of honor on Doolittle's
breast, MIR Roosevelt remarked
with a grin 10 reporters that
not even a columnist had guess
ed it.
Besides General George c.
Marshall, chief Of staff of the
army. Lieutenant General II. II.
Arnold, chief Of the army air
service, and Mr.. Roosevelt, no
one knew about the decoration
until a few moments previous.
And Mr. Roosevelt said he
thought il would be quite a
surprise TO General Doolittle.
Marshall and Arnold were on
hand for the ceremony, as was
Mrs. Doolittle, who was flown
here from Los Angeles.
General Marshall read the
citation for the medal, which
said:
"Brigadier General J a m c S
II. Doolittle, United States army,
for conspicuous leadership above
and beyond the call Of duty, in
volving personal valor and in
trepidity at an extreme hazard
to life. With the apparent GER
tainty of being forced to land
in enemy territory or to perish
at sea, General Doolittle pers-
onally led a squadron of army
bombers, manned by volunteer
crews in a highly destructive
raid on the Japanese mainland"
Both the president and the
war department left unanswered
that important question to which
the japanese would like a solu-
ton: Where was the raiding
squadron based?

Goeschel if he had talked with
the parents of the dead woman
as had been suggested. he said
he hadn't because he hadn't kill

nothing about which to talk with

In sentencing the young man,

was mandatory for him to inn
pose the indeterminate sentence.

the minimum term because of
the testimony OF character wit
nesses who had addressed him
on Goeschel'S behalf. They had
given him TO understand that
GoeSchel had a clean record. The
Judge said, however, that he
could not condone the driving of

der the influence of liquor
whether accident resulted or not.

outset that he had he "a lot Of
drinks" the day Of the mishap.

 The U. S.. of ali nations, Ehouid have been the first to understand Russia. Ignorance of Russia ard suspicion Of Staiiii were two things that prevented it. Old prejudiees and the antics Of U. s, Communists dangling at the end Of the Party line were others. As Allies fighting the common enemy. the Russians have fought the best fight so far. As postwar collaborators, they hold many Of the keys to c successful peace.
 "The two peoples who talk the most and scheme the biggest schemes are the Americans and tie Russians" Time points out. Both can be sentimental one moment, blazinely angry the next. Both spend their money freely for goods and pleasures. drink too much. argue IE- terminably. Both are builders. The U. s. built mills ard factories and tanned the land across q continent 5000 miles wide. Russia tried to catch up by doing the same thing through a planned program that post-pioneer Americans would not have suffered.
 "The rights as individuals that U. S. citizens have, the Russians wart and believe they eventually will re- ceive. Some of the discipline that the Russians have, the U. S. may need before the end Of World War IT."
