Courage

Eddy Wiihrow, the American
boy who fought with the French
Army against the Nazis, came to
this country with but four dol
lars. And as far as the Germans
knew, he came here with nothing
Here's how he got those four dol
lars out Of France:
Eddy melted bar Of soap, took
two gold francs fworth 81 esch)
and set them in the soap, which
then hardened. The money came
in handy. as you might expect. A
stranger in New York City is quite
a lonely fellow. Thanks to the Red
Cross and a friend on the West
Coast, however, Eddy managed
to get by long enough until he
enlisted in the Army-which was
what he came over for.

Air Raid!

The drone of airplane motors
and explosion of dropping bombs
and the screams of men crying
for help caused a calamity in
the 303rd Technical School SQUAD
ron not many evenings ago.
All was peaceful and quiet In
the No. is barrack. Lights were
out UNTIL these bombs, air
planes and screams awoke every
man In the barrsck. Men grabbed
brooms, rakes and shovels. Ready
for anything.
Until--one Of the more cour-
ageous lads ventured outside,
leaned against a nearby wall and
heard all those bursting bombs,
droning airplanes and cries In
the Post theatre Quite a movie,
we guess.

REORG ANIMATION OF
OUTPOSTS URGED

Powerful figures close to the
White House have urged Presi-
dent Roosevelt To reorganize the
administrative establishments in
the key outposts of Alaska and
Puerto Rico. Specifically they
suggest that he supplant Cow
ernors Ernest II. 6ruening and
Rex C. Tugwell with army and
navy officers.
In ordinary times these eushy
herths were regarded as hsvens
for lame ducks and IL is under
this political tradition that the
pair WAS named. The former
was once a writer for a pinko
magazine, lesped into the Roose-
welt Tor President movement
early in the game. and was re-
wsroed with an appointment as
assistant secretary Of the in
terror in charge Of territories and
possessions. When he FLASHED
with Secretary lckes he Was
kicked upstairs TO the seeming
ly innoeuous post OF governor Of
the cold country. Rex's history
Is too fresh 10 require recount

he was purged from the depart
