An Old Conrade
From Cuidod TruiilIo

This is the story of the main base
for the military forces invading the
Western hemisphere-the first and
highly successful invasion of the
American continent. It was from
here that foreign invaders. launched
their pitiless attacks which placed
the peoples of the western world
under European flag, despoiled
their wealth, broke their spirit, de-
stroyed their culture and reduced
them to vassalage
/ am speaking of what is now
known as Cuidad Trujillo.
The fortress built by the first in
vader still stands in that city
today this city is probably as far
from the war and the rumors of war
as any spot on earth. 1t is the CAPT.
tai city of the island of Santo Do
mingo where Columbus landed and
whence Pizzaro, Cortez, Ponce de
Leon, Balboa, and every Spanish
invader set forth to crush and con-
quer the New world.

Air Raids Blasting Germany

The spectacular British aerial attack upon the
Rhineland give pattern of the aerial offensive that
British ain leaders have in mind.
1t is difficult to visualize the effect of 5000 tons
OF bombs dropped in raid upon city. This is
much larger amount of explosives than that which fell
on London and Coventry in 1910 and 1941. The Ger
mans, it is estimated used around 600 planes in these
attacks. While the British have doubled the
number of planes experts say that the bombers used
by the British have four times the carrying capacity
of the largest air force before concentrated
single objective.
From London comes the news that Air Marshal
Harris says that 1t is operatonally possible to use
forces five times greater than those already used par
ticularly when American bombers forces ready to
fly against the Reich. 1t is said that Marshal Harris
is of the opinion that 1000 planes Germany every
night would lend the by Autumn" He adds, if he
could send 10000 bombers over Germany in single
night, the war would end "the next morning"
While it is hardly possible to conclude the strug-
gle by the of arpanes it is not too much to
say that such raids carried out regularly against
lected Cities will cripple German production to
cause the collapse of the Greman Armys offensive
power.

civilian morale?" instead of it be-
Ing the other way around as many
people thought it would be at first.
With the launching Of more and
more Allied offensive action, with
more and more American units en-
gagged. the attitude of the pre-
draftee is expected to change. The
need of his help will be brought
home.
1912 will see about $3.50, 900 new
men joining the army, air force and
navy Every effort will be made to
defer those with dependents and to
take the older men last. That is the
reason for the army's insistence on
drafting the 10 and 10 year group.
The chief argument against calling
the younger men is that it breaks
up their schooling. But schooling
can be taken up again. Taking fam
lily men disturbs the social and eco
nomic life of the nation. Taking
skilled workers and men who are
already fitted into the economic pat
tern of the nation, disturbs the war
effort.
Although few but the most op-
timistic say so. it may not be nec-
essary to call any more men after
1942-if the war is still going full
tilt then another 2,25O,O0O will be
needed in 1943-but there is no use
counting our ugly ducklings before
they are Matched.

Last Sunday l had lunch with
young man who had been moving
in sea of uncertainty for months;
it was impossible for him or his
wife to make the necessary plans
to arrange their existence in case
he went into the army Then out of
a clear sky he was called. He had
been in the army for one week when
l saw him and never saw such
change. 1t was largely due to re-

business matters. He was full of
praise for army efficiency and had
high hopes that he would be able to
do just what he had found it i'm
possible to do before; namely. find
out the niche into which he would fit,
where he would not only be doing
the best job he could do for the
country but a job which was best
fitted to his experience and training
and therefore his peace Of mind. He
was a man who was energetic and
active and if he had been chained to
a paper-work job he would have
been a misfit. He had worried

and had to wear glasses, he would

that the average man Of military
age feels this way: he is willing to
do whatever job his country wants
him to do. He wants to do the job
he can do best. He doesn't want
to break up his education, his FAM

back by way of Pa. to Washing

There used to be a saying about
Paris-that if you sat long enough
at table on the sidewalk in front
Of the Cafe de la Paix Cat that fas-
cinating corner of the Avenue de
POpera and the Boulevarde des
Italiens) you would be certain to see
somebody you knew go by, no mat
ter where you came from.
Today Pennsylvania avenue In
Washington has become the worlds
boulevard-only we have no side
walk cafes. We have only very
crowded restaurants. Perhaps the
real world rendezvous is the wide
waiting room of the executive Of
fees of the White House.
Today, as 1 sat waiting for the
correspondents to line up and show
their passes and be admitted to the
oval Office for the regular semi
weekly press and radio conference,
who should appear but my old COM
rade Oliver Newman, major of in
fantry in the last war, one-time
commissioner (mayor) of the Dis
trict of Columbia, Iowa farm boy
and prince of good fellows
You ought to see Ollie around a
horse-or a mule. What he doesn't
know about these critters, whether
they are pulling a load of hay, yank-
ing rs out of the mud, or stretch
ing noses toward the finish line, adds
up to nearly minus.
But that is only part of the &C.
complishments which have been
many and varied in the field Of
politics, society, finance. and, shall
we say, climatically. journalism.
Anyhow, Major Newman came up
and extended his hand. / have met
him surprisingly in other less con-
gruous places than the White
House. This time he had just re-
turned from his distant post in Santo
Domingo where he is advisor to the

A Slogan To Enforce

Japan for the Japanese" is slogan which comes
from Washington with reporters suggesting, but not
saying, that the phrase may have come from the
President himself.
While members of the Pacific War Council made
effort to explain the meaning of the slogan, it
taken to signify the determination of the United
Nations to strip Japan of her Empire. including Korea
Manchuria, Formosa and the German Islands in the
Pacific
On the basis of Japan's record, the democratic
peoples of the world would be justified, after the
cuson of this war; in barring Japanese from residence
in anyother part of the world except Japan. Even
those confined to the Islands should be closely watched
and future plots promptly nipped in the bud.

about the scarcity of men of the
ideal age for the army-ideal from
the standpoint of adaptability to
military life, physical energy, lack
of dependents and other responsible
ity, lack Of training that is needed
for agriculture or industry.
The general did some lightning
calculations that couldn't follow

of men Of ideal fighting age. Then
came subtractions for the ones with
dependents, the ones needed on the
farm and in the factory and the Is

be saved back the ones we can't

There Are Other Things In Life

The average citizen is doubt interested in the
political events that in the United States, which
is quite proper considering that the theory of our
government involves understanding of the issues
by every voter.
There is tendency, however, for the Individual
to become intensely interested in the outcome OF pot
cal campaigns involving issues that seem transcendent
and to drift into state of mind which magnifies the
Importance of the outcome.
While it is right and proper for every American to
pass Judgment upon every national administration,
there is no occasion for them to divide into bitterly
hostile groups or to permit politics to entirely over
shadow the other values in life.
