 He arrived at divisional head- quarters on the edge of the jun- gle near Pegu. There was now no Ggn Of elegance. Gone were the highly polished boots and in- stead of whipcord brooches 1t was khaki shorts, brown shirt and sam Browne. The Japg had cut the road to the north of his new command. It was Alexander's first ofncial field job to dislodge them from their new positions. He blew them out.
 PLAN BURMA COMEBACK
 And thereafter, following the retreat from Rangoon, he com rnanded troops who fought as splendidly as any who ever, made history. They needed more men, guns, and airplanes more than they probably needed a new gem eral just at this moment. Yet 1t was Alexander who succeeded in knitting them together for the long, slow, heart-breaking re- treat. With this handful of men, Alexander fought for nearly three months a battle that, by all the rules, should have ended in one. These men, saved from capture, now form the nucleus around which the Anglo. American high command plans to form an army which will

 Next General Alexander suc- cessfuliy fulfiled the largest as- signment of his career.

He was SO modest that, as Middle East cotnmuniques floated across his desk, he would delete his name from dispatches to the world and insert the names of General Montgomery and other staff officers"
 Today, as deputy commanders iin-ciief under Af1erica's Gen- eral Eisenhower in the final phase of the African campaign, Alex ander enjoys the full conflderee of London and Washington. It is felt that the man who in the last war commanded Q battalion of the Irish Guards at 24; a brigade at 42; a division at 45, and who hirn- self went over the top in France 30 times, can inapart the bold ness and resolution of his char acter to British American and French troops alike;

 An army oficer stationed here received word that his mother had died. By long distance tele- phone he tried to tell relatives that he would go to the States for the funeral. A monitor at Miami cut him of, on the ground that he was giving advance in- formation concerning travel plans.

Certainly ''War is HelI!" but the loss of Freedom is worse than war. Why? Because we believe that the United Nations can eliminate War as constant threat to our free way of life. But the progress of l60 years as an independent Democracy would be lost if our essential freedoms were sacrificed.
 We all recognize that the saving of our basic freedoms now depends quite as much upon the people who are staying at home as upon the men who are flying the airplanes and fighting at the front. Their victories can only be made possible by our full support. Let Is search for some measure of how we can be most loyal to them.

He says that on every occasion when the chambers president sought to use such information on the stand, by coincidence or otherwise the Inter for Department was prepared with rebuttal material specifically bear- ing upon his arguments.
 A local rewspaperman supplied a weekly bulletin on business develop t11ents to 0 service in the States One particular service rounded up the program which business here contends amounts to potentially complete socialization. The material was sent to a maximum of seven client business men, all anti -Tugwell in sentiment. Its source was not indicated to these clients.
 Nevertheless, Governor Tugwell's Coordinator of Information learned of the source and complained to the Ilewspaperman about the material Eventually the Governor succeeded in making him give up this branch of his business.
 Other similar stories can not be told because their telling might prove embarrassing to those with whom I talked.
 The people here. so far as could learn, do not resent the fact that their letters are censored to prevent the transmission of anything thnt might prove helpful to the Axis. They do not even raise the ques- ton whether such censorship Is le- gal
 They do object to the caprice with which petty employees 9 thou- sand miles away, on the mainland, kick back provable statements about local conditions with the label "ex- aggerated rumors."
 They object even more to what they feel certain Is the fact. that anything they write will be passed around to government agen- cies, though it has nothing what ever to do with military or naval matters and though even the Miami censorship does not claim that 1t is useful to the enemy.
 They feel that the legitimate pur- poses of censorship are being per- verted into ordinary back fence gos- sip. And they do resent that.

 A tough. aggressive fighter who three times has been called upon to wage vital defensive action to save Q British army from crush- ing defeat, he is nevertheless an advocate of the offensive.

When flown from the same staff as the national flag (B), that of the United States should be on top, the service flag never being above or to the right of the Stars and Stripes.
