bodies. Now they are doing 50.
They say the bodies were buried
in clay CTon-Erde) which pre-
served them. Experts know of
no such clay. They say hundreds
of bodies have been disinterred
from clay in the same state as
If disinterred from ordinary
earth.
There are records of bodies
being preserved by disinfectants
in the soil. One such was found
in a salt we'll in Salzburg. An
other was once found in a peet
bog. Mummifled corpses have
been found in deserts and frozen
ones in glaciers. But no one
knows of any found in clay.
The relative moisture. of the
soil hastens or retards decompo-
sition. The Encyclopedia Britain
MICA defines clay as "a substance
very soft, more or less coherent,
when dry retentive of water and
often plastic when wet"
The grave in which the Polish
officers were discovered" is 80
feet by 50 and deep enough to
take II layers of men. This is
an enormous pit. We are asked
to believe that Russian assassins
chose just such soil, very hard to
dig, oozy when wet and brittle
when dry, in which to bury these
bodies. We are also asked to
believe that the OGPU laid them
out with their documents, diaries
and everything else.
We are asked to believe, fur
thermore, that these papers were
preserved by the fat from the
corpses.' Again, experts I have
consulted say that animal fat,
organic substance, would also de-
compose and be no such preserva-
tive. Only mineral oils would
perform that function.
The bodies were not discovered
because carefully hidden by
three years growth of trees. In
other words, the Russians tried
to camoufage the grave after
leaving every possible identifca-
ton with the corpses.
But if the grave was made in
1910 the trees were only a year
old when the Germans first came
and the spot was therefore Wis
able. And, of course, every one
knows 3-year-old trees can be
transplanted. And, finally, trees
no not flourish in clay.
This fancy tale looks to me
more like German thoroughness
than like Russian ruthlessness.

don't believe this tall tale. I
don't believe these corpses are

there are important reasons why
the Nazis launch the story, and
about these reasons I will specu-

What is the matter with this COM
mittee, and what is the matter with
Senator Ferguson? Why do they
not make a realistic approach"
themselves?
Do they not know that an ex-
tremely realistic approach" to this
vital problem was made by a group
OF men selected by the President
more than two months ago and re-
quested by him to make a study of
the situation, reporting to him with
recommendations? If the COM
mlttee and Senator Ferguson want
realism in this matter, all they have
to do is to get Mr.. Roosevelt to give
them that report.
Certain Recommendations Known.
There was no lack of realism in it.
1t was, in fact, so realistic that, as
pointed out in this place some weeks
ago, the President, resisting all sug-
gestions that it be made public, ap-
parently has buried it. The known
facts about the report are these:
l. The committee making it was
composed of James NJ Byrnes, B. M.
Baruch, Admiral w. D. Leahy. Harry
Hopkins and Judge Samuel Rosen-
man.
2. 1t indicted the manner in which
the manpoWer business had been
handled and recommended changes

power Commissioner McNutt and
Secretary of Agriculture Wickard.
3. The report was unanimous
signed by all five of the committee
members.
Could Ask for Report.
No one has seen it since it was
delivered to the President early In
March. All efforts to dig out it's
recommendations have failed. If the
Truman Committee is as concerned
as it seems about the manpoWer.
situation, the sensible thing for it to
do would be to ask the President to
let it see this report.
The reason he has given for
failure to make it public is that it
was not really report but just CON
f1dential memoranda" Certainly.
members of the committee thought
that it was a real report and, cer-
tainly, they had no idea it was to be
regarded as more confidential than
the Baruch Committee report on
rubber, the recommendation of
which have been carried out and a
very bad situation cleared up.
So far as the public was concerned
and so far as the committee was
concerned, the manpower muddle
seemed to call for the same sort of
study, the same sort of report, the
same sort of recommendations, the
same sort of publicity and the same

cult because OF the terrain-all
jungle and impossible roads.
BY fall, the Chinese generalis-
simo seems to think, the situation
in the Mediterranean will have
improved to such an extent that
the Allies might be able to spare
more warships to strengthen the
already sizable British fleet in
the Indian Ocean.
Will Give True Picture.
Since Nine. Chang appears to
have failed in her mission, Gen.
Stillwell and Gen. Chenault, who
are commanding ground and
aviation forces in that area, have
come to Washington to place
before their superiors the true
picture Of the situation in China.
Both men have been in the Far
East since before the attack on
Pearl Harbor. Both know the
terrain, the available facilities
and the political set up better
than any one else. They cannot
be called as biased as Nine.
Chang, since they are both
Americans and officers in United
States armed forces.
Hence the generalissimo ex-
poets their summary of condi-
tions to carry more weight than
the emotional appeals of China's
first lady.
While Gen. Stilwell cannot
hope for any great assistance in
the near future, Gen. Chennault
hopes to get more planes and
gasoline for his men who have
been handicapped by the lack
of supplies and spare parts. -
Whether much can be done for
them is questionable. Planes are
needed for the campaign in the
Mediterranean theater which is
only beginning and will require
a greater air effort after Tunisia
has been cleared of Axis forces.
The planes also are needed for
the bombing of Germany from
Great Britain and are desper-
ately needed in the Atlantic in
the anti-submarine warfare.
Russia expects a heavy Nazi
onslaught in the next few weeks
and will require everything we
can send her.
Finally, Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur must maintain his air
superiority over the Japs in the
South Pacific to ward off the
menace to New Guinea and the
other islands in his and Admiral
William F.. Halsey's territory.
Under the circumstances, there
will be little to spare for the
faraWay Chinese front. But both
Gen. StilWell and Gen. Chen
nault, who are directly interested
in the war in China, hope they
can present a case strong enough
to increase the ALLEGATIONS of
planes and war materials given
to that area by WASHINGTON.
