the Allies.

I met one Of the crew, q husky,
bearded veteran chief petty ofncer
who had spent IL years in sub
marines. We were In a restaurant
and he was telling about the ex-
perience in Lingayen, when the air
raid siren sounded. The sailor
rushed to the door and looked fran
tically for taxi. Take it easy"
I advised him. THE Japs have
never bombed this part of the CITY,"
TO hell with this" he said. Don't
you realize that this is dangerous?
I'm going back to my submarine
where It's SAFE"
That submarine and its crew were
still In action many months later.
1t made at least one trip into Cor
regidor to bring supplies and to take
out naval personnel, and on its way
out 1t attacked three japanese de-
stroyers in the narrow waters of the
Philippines. 1t. Vince Schumacher,
who had served with the PIT boats.
was on board the sub and told me
about it.
I'VE spent three days on the
bottom after firing our fish and were
bounced around the whole time. The
lights went out and the paint was
knocked of the hull. but the skipper
never stopped grinning. He actually
liked 1t. Said that after the expert
ence in Lingayen he didn't feel good
unless a scrap was going on. His
feeling mLe. have been catching
because I've decided that I prefer
subs to PIT boats. I'm on my way

Army was withdrawing into Bataan
We soon realized that our concept
of the Asiatic Fleet as a suicide
force which would rip into the Japs
before they reached Luzon was
erroneous. What Hart did was tc
keep his force intact and to use II
to protect ships which fled from
Manila to Malaga and Java. The
surface force remained nearly intact
until the battle of the Java Sea

En- route to Java the U. 8. S. Mar
blehead was bombed for hours by
Japanese planes which left 1t lying
helpless in the water. Those OF the
crew who were not killed patched
up the ship somehow and finally
brought 1t safely to New York after
an epic trip half way around the
world.
The Houston and the American
destroyers Pillsbury and Pope were
sent to the bottom in the Java Sea
battle. but two other destroyers sue

reached Australia.
Months later l went aboard one OF

Inflated Ego
Must ALWAYS
Be Curbed
By angelo Patri.

There was never an intelligent
child born into this world who did
not want his own way. Most OF
them want it for the sheer joy of
feeling their power at work on
others. That is the just inheritance
of the human child and we would
be unwise TO question its values.
1t is more unwise, however, to
allow child of 3 or years to exer-
else his wish for power upon all
who come his way. He must learn
from the start that he is only one
of the millions who would have
their will on EARTH He must learn
to share his world with the rest of
mankind and the sooner the better.
Children of this age are charm
ing. We are likely to think their
determination to have and to hold
is a pretty gesture and it is. But
it is a dangerous gesture and must
be curbed lest it destroy the child's
usefulness for himself and the rest
of us.

Her will to dominate is at work.
Which shoe she wears is not i'm

her swim, her comfort, her mother S

determined notion and all else sinks
into insignificance.
What is to be done with her now?
She is stamping her feet and
screaming in rage. Don't spank her
Don't try to reason with her. Push
her ahead of you to the nearest
faucet and throw cold water full
into her red face until the yelling
changes into subdued crying. Then
still without talking, with the cool
professional calm of the trained
nurse, have her undress, rub herself
dry, put on her night clothes and

will do without trouble if you have
done your work thoroughly and with
