u. S. AIR FORCE:

The long-awaited entry of Ameri-
a fighting planes on a large scale
into the European air war took place
when U. S. fighting craft engaged
in 81 operational sorties.
This baptism was regarded as a
~forerunner Of the time when the sky

DOCTORS:
Getting Scarcer

Mounting needs for doctors in the
armed services will make necessary
a speeding up of medical training
and an expansion of their practice
by physicians remaining in civilian
life.
This was made evident when
statistics released in Washington
showed that the country has 60, 900
doctors, whereas needs for military
and civilian functions will require
140, 900 physicians. AS a result of
this situation, selective service
headquarters said local boards had
already begun to %reclassify physi-
clans who can be spared from civil
ian service.
For every 1000, 900 men in the
army. approximately 5000 doctors
r required. The navy's needs are
$500 physicians to every 1000, 900
men. President Roosevelt's recent
statement that 1000, 900 men are al
ready under arms indicates that
"a, 900 doctors are ticketed for mill
tary service. The army recently
declared it will need 20, 900 more by
the end Of the year.

INDIA:
Candhi Spins

AS Mohandas K. Gandhi worked
at his spinning wheel in his sumptu-
JUS prison in the Aga Khan's pal
ace, the harvest Of his passive re-
sistance campaign against the Brit
ish was a series Of bloody riots that
spread to the far corners of India.
Madras, heart Of midas war in
dustries, populous Bombay, Wardha
in the central provinces and Madura
in the far south had been the cenes
of outbreaks, despite official threats
of death and flogging for all who
took part in the revolution. That
the British had the situation well
in hand was indicated by the fact
that the disorders were sporadic
and confined to big cities, whereas
the countryside was virtually unaf-
fected.
Meanwhile in Washington, the
state department made it clear that
American military forces in India
had been ordered to Exercise
scrupulous care to avoid the slight
est participation in midas internal
political problems" A statement ex-
planned that THE sole purpose of
the American forces in India is

Realism Required

victory cannot be expected before
1914 at the earliest. And, added the

mountains, said to be the best in
that war sector.
The effectiveness of the entire Of
fensive was indicated by a commu-
nique from General MacArthur's
headquarters in Australia which re-
ported that the marines had cap
tured a Japanese airfield on Guada-
canal island.
Intent on India and massing
strength along the Siberian frontier,
the Japanese command did not like
the idea of an American offensive in
the Solomons. An offensive it was,
however, with the intent Of regaining
lost territory, cutting a wedge into
Japanese supply lines and carrying
the fight to the enemy.
The marines were only a part of
the attacking task force under COM
mand Of Vice Admiral Robert L.
Ghormley. They performed the nec-
essary landing and cross-country
fighting operations. But back of
them was stout naval power and
strong air forces which gave the
Yankees a superiority the Japs had
hitherto held.

duties and problems, and its small

camping trip every summer. We
left the boys with his mother, but

when they were older.
This was the picture when l fell
in love with a man who had recently
come to the neighborhood. For one
year u friendship was confined to

the exchange of many notes. Then
Jim went away for some weeks,
and during that time Douglas and
I became much too intimate.

understand that I completely lost

c%hildless, and living apart from his
wife. He applied for a divorce at
once, but settlements could not be
reached and there was a long delay.

Douglas and I went to another town
and set up housekeeping together.
All this time I was intensely nerv-

everything except the supreme real

MY little boys went to their
grandmother, and Jim never op-
posed my coming to see them, but
it was a stiff. unnatural sort of meet

I I could not stay. They were natural

Rather than give his wife the
control she demanded of his fortune,
Douglas continued to refuse her
divorce terms, and for two years
we wandered about in a Fools Para

in itself was all that mattered. But
it came to me gradually that he was

RUSSIA:
Cossacks No Barrier

The emphasis which Russian COM
muniques placed on "saber-bearing
Cossacks" suggested that the Red
forces in the Caucasus lacked the
heavy tank and armored equipment
with which Nazi advances had pre-
viously been repealed.
The appearance Of new geograph-
ic m in the communicates
C%herkess, Kotelnikovski, Krasnodor
and Maikop-indicated the rapidity
with which the German steamroller
had been able to latten out Russian
resistance and move on 10 new OBJ
jectives.
There was no doubt that Russia
needed a second front and knew it.
A Soviet communique acknowl-
edged that one swift thrust had
brought the Nazis to Mineralyne
Vody, only 40 miles as the crow
flies from the oil wells of Grozny.
But things were not completely
hopeless. While the Germans had
seized some oil in the Maikop area
of the Caucasus, the big prize was
still out Of their reach. Between
them and Baku rose the barrier Of
the Caucasus mountains. Moreover,
Marshal Timoshenko's forces were
contesting every mile Of advance
stubbornly.
In an area north Of the Caucasus
the Russian position was grave. for
Stalingrad, industrial city Of the VOL
ga, was menaced by a Nazi pincers
movement from the Kletskaya area
on the north and the Kotelnikovski
sector in the south.

fever, with moments of actu-

poets a person in such a con-

Many men and women mar

It is a sickness of spirit that
makes everything else in life seem

determines she will not telephone;
she cannot wait to get her hands on
a telephone. She determines she
will not humiliate herself by writing
a letter, even as she is inscribing
her passionate words on a page. She
will not think about him, but she
hopes at every corner to meet him,
every mans coat or walk or eyes or
smile brings him back to her. She
will start a conversation, break it

neglect or cruelty of the man for
whom she is burning with desire,

she can do without the one no better
than she can do without the other.
Unfortunately, to many of our
modern women. who are not bound
