Jews In Uniform
BY BEN SAMUEL

REUNION IN THE MARINES:
when war broke out, Lieutenant
Colonel Melvin KruIewitch, high
est ranking Jewish officer in the
U. s.. Marine Reserve, was ordered
back to active duty. The cOIOnePs
first assignment brought him to
the Marine Barracks Navy Yard
In Boston, Mass. One SATURDAY.
morning he walked down a line of
alert marines, ON a tour of inspec-
t1On. Suddenly he found himself
face to face with a young private
standing smartly at attention,
whom he recognized as Donald
Spark
The Colonel's mind raced back
over the years, to a time before
the first World War, when he
used to spend his summers down
at Bradley Beach, N. j. There he
had first become acquainted with
a family by the name of Spark.
The Sparks had a young son NAM
ed Victor. Now, in those days,
the Colonel was a student at Co.
lumbia University, and an out
standing athlete. Victor, being
three years younger than his
friend Mel, looked up to him as
varsity idol. It was from Krule-
witch that he learned how to
wrestle
The Colonel remembered how
war came and he had left school
to enlist in the Marines, how be-
fore long he was promoted to an
Acting Jack"-a rating some

The Colonel recalled an after
noon in the Old Barracks at Par
ris Island. How he had spied
Victor Spark in the uniform of
the Marines and halted the COM

shake hands with him. Victor,
the raw recruit, had been so over

and helping Victor when the lad
was hurt, finding him shelter at
night, feeding him, and finally al
most carrying him to the rear and
leaving him on the side of the
road for the medical detail to
pick him up and return him to
his base. Going over the top I'll

OneI recalled a more recent OccaS-
ion, the day in 1941 when Spark,
now married and settled down to
the business of selling paintings
in New York, had come to visit
him. He wanted advice about his
son Donald, a big strapping boy
in his last year of high school.
Donald wanted to quit school and
Join the Marines. Being under 18,
he needed his fathers consent.
But Mr.. Spark wanted the Colo

thought the yOungster ought to
finish school first. Donald, how
ever, eXerted sufficient pressure
on his parents and eventually won
his way. Occasionally he wrote
to Colonel KruIewitch, addressing
him as Uncle Mel.

BY WARD SCHULTZ
Detroit Times Financial Editor

ALTHOUGH MILLIONS of tons
of steel scrap were shipped 10
Japan prior TO Pearl Harbor, an
article in the Daily Metal Trade
effectively disposeS OF
the myth that these shipments are
for the current short
age.
Admittedly all that tonnage
would help now. but the total for
the seven-year period from 1884
40 was only 962lOOO gross tons
with a peak of little more than
100000 tons in 1899.
Last month. the steel mills and
foundries Of America consumed
100000 tons Of SueChScrap.
And the average for last year
was 4,469,000 tons a month.
So that all the scrap the JapS
took out of tbs country over a
Seven-year period would only keep
our mills running for little over
two months.
But that's not all the story by
any means
During that same soven-yoar
period. scrap shipments from
United States 10 the entire world
tdtaled 100000 tons
OF this amount. 2i56 600 tons
went To Italy, nearly 100000 tons
were taken by Great Britain, and
shipments 10 Germany IN 1895
totaled nearly 80 900 tons
There was a scrap surplus hero
then and American mills Were
just not interested.
