The Patton Case
Cincinnati Enquirer)

Cincinnati Enquirer)
OF itself the Patton matter is unimportant. There
is nothing strange startling about couple of
soldiers losing their tempers It's done every day
The slap which administered to the shellshocked
soldier conceivably could have done him good
than harm, although the picture is one which must
mcite sympathy only for the hospitalized man.
for the officer who struck the blow
But the publicity which has been attached to the
Patton may have beneficial results far beyond
the particular incident involved. While it appeared,
at first, that little good could come from airing the
facts closer study of the situation may well alter
that opinion
During the last World War a long series of in
excusable cruelties practiced against soldiers
imprisoned in certain military police camps in the
A. E. F. The situation existed for months, in spite
of unpublished reports which were then circulated
far ard wide among United States troops abroad
Little open publicity however, was given the
matter until after the close of the when the
officers responsible were brought to trial.
Had the facts been brought out at the beginning
of the A. E. F. outrages. they have been in the
Patton case the situation never could have spread
and nlateralized as it did A little publicity would
have forced higher Army officers to investigate the
matter at once and to have put immediate stop
to the cruel treatment which being melted out
Hundreds of men would have been saved suffering
and humiliation, and the later trials would
have been necessary.
General Patton has been good soldier. 1t is
unfortunate that the iron discipline which he de-
manded of this troops could not have been extended
himself in this particular instance. Certainly the
whole nation hopes that his unfortunate action will
not result in the ending of his service for, Ike
Eisenhower said in commenting the case, good
general officers are hard to find,
The publicity which has followed the incident
will teach General Patton, and other officers whose
tempers may flare under the strain of battle that
democatc principles must be extended even to an
army under fire Soldiers must obey of course, but
it is even important for a General to obey the
American military code under which he commands
than it is for a private to obey Generals orders

Today marks the second anniversary of Japan's

AMERICAN PRISONERS

Senator Clyde Herring of Iowa gets
from his son are any criterion.
Senator Herring, whose boy was
captured in Tunisia land who had
a second son die just as he was
entering the Army, reports that
American prisoners are reasonably
well-fed, receive their mail regu-
larly. Young Herring has received

monicas sent by the YMCA. He
reported that the resultant noise
was likely to drive the German
guards away from camp.
American and British prisoners,
formerly together, have now been
segregated, for reasons best known
to the Nazis. Prison camps were
moved north some time ago, APP
parently because the Germans
feared a u. S-British second front
from the south. But now, with the
camps in the north, the Germans
face a much more imminent Rus
sian invasion from that direction

SYNTHETIC TIRES

Early next year. the American
public will get its first real test OF
synthetic tires These will not be
passenger. but bus and truck tires,
which will begin TO come out OF
tire factories some time in Janu-
airy.
They will be hurried to the
wheels of buses and trucks, now
limping along on sharply reduced
rations. Even in September, the
ALLEGATION of $4,000 civilian bus
and truck tires was inadequate
But now the figure has been re-
duced still further to $4,000 for
November and December
Operators of trucks and buses
are worried about the new tires,
knowing that early tests have shown
they do not stand up under heavy
loads. This in spite of the fact that
they are only 10 percent syn
thetic, with an admixture OF 30
percent natural rubber.
Result will be that truck and
bus loads will have to be reduced
all over the country. Since they are
already operating above normal ca
pacity. reduction of loads will mean
reduction in the total performance
of trucks and buses
OF course, the synthetic may
prove to be better than tests have
shown, but the trucking industry
