BY ERNIE PYLE

SOMEWHERE IN NORMANDY,
by Wireless i know of nothin~
in civilian life at home by which
you can even remotely compare the
contribution to his country made
by the infantry soldier with his life
of bestiality, suffering and death.
But I've just been with an outfit
whose war work is similar enough
TO yours that I believe you can see
the difference between life overseas
and in America.
This is the heavy ordnance COM
pany which repairs shot-up tanks,
wrecked artillery and heavy trucks
These men are not in much dam
ger. They work at shcp benches
with tools. Compared with the in
fantry, their life is velvet and they
know it and appreciate it. But COM
pared with them your life is velvet.
That's what I'd like for you to APP
preciate.

SKILLED CRAFTSMEN

SMILED CkAf lSMEN
These men are mostly skilled
craftsmen. Many of them are above
military age Back home they made
big money Their jobs here are fun
damentally the same as these OF
you at home who work in war
plants. It's only the environment
that is different.
These men don't work seven,
eight or nine hours a day. They
work from in the morning until
darkness comes at night. They work
from II tC l6 hours a day.
You have beds and bathrooms.
These men sleep on the ground. and
dig a trench for their toilets.
NO COMFORTS
You have meals at the table.
These men eat from messkits, sit
ting on the grass. You have paja-
mas, and places TO go on Sunday.
These men sleep in their underwear,
and they don't even knew when
Sunday comes. They have not sat in
chair for weeks. They live al
ways outdoors, rain and shine.
In the World War their life is
not bad. BY peacetime standards 1t
is outrageous Eut they don't COM
plain-becauSe they are close enough
to the frCnt to see and appreciate
the desperate need OF the men they
are trying to help. They work with
an eagerness and an intensity that
is thrilling to see.
This company works under
half-acre grove OF trees and along
the hedgerows of couple Of ad-
Joining pastures. Their shops are
in the trucks, or out in the open
under camouflage nets.
Most of their work seemed un-
spectacular to describe. 1t just con-
sists of welding steel plates in the
sides of tanks. of changing the
front end of a truck blown up by
a mine, or repairing the barrel of
a big gun hit by bazooka, OF re-
winding the coils of radio, Of
welding new teeth in gear. ''
It's the sincere way they go at it.
and their appreciation of its need
that impressed me.
Corp. Richard KelSo is in this
company. His home is at 1928 Ros-
coe ST. Chicago.
He is an Irishman frCm the old
sod He apprenticed in Belfast as
a machinist nearly 80 years ago.
He came to America when he was
25 and now he is As.
He still has folks in Ireland, but
he didn't have chance to get over
there when he was stationed in
England He is thin and a little
stopped and the others call him
Pop. He is quiet and intent and
very courteous. He never did get
married
OPERATES MACHINE
Kelso operates the milling ma
chine in a shcp truck. His truck is
covered deep with extra strips OF
steel, for these boys pick up and
hoard steel as some people might
hoard money
When I stopped to chat, Kelso
had his machine grinding away on
the rough tooth CT the gearwheel
of tank.

CALCUTTA, INDIA, Nov. 5-tR-
The British Army newspaper
"SEAC' today paid high tribute
to Gen. Joseph Stilwell who was
recalled to Washington from the
China-Burma-India Theater, and
said Admiral Lord Louis Mount

in the territory to see Stilwel]
leave.
"All admired Stilwell and many
loved that caustic, craggy, tough
old Bird" the newspaper said.
''Stilwell scourned all who scott
ed at talk of a road back to Burma
over the mountains beyond Ledo,
and history will decide the value
of that road, for without it the Jap.
anese still would hold Mogaung
and Myitkyina.''

adam And Fallen Man.
Lesson-Sermon Subject

adam and Fallen Man" was the
subject of the Lesson-Sermon in
all Christian Science churches and
societies yesterday.
The Golden Text was from Ro-
mans 6:14. ''Sin shall not have
dominion over you: for We are not
under the law, but under grace"
Among the citations which COM
prised the Lesson-Sermon we're
the following from the Bible: And
God said, let us make man in our
image, after our likeness .
So God created man in his own
image, in the image of God Great
ed he him; male and female Great
ed he them. But there went up a
mist from the earth and watered
the whole face of the ground And
the Lord God formed man of the
dust of the ground, and breathed
into his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became & living SOUL
tGen. l: 26 to q, Gen. 2: SD.
The Lesson-Sermon also included
the following passages from the
Christian Science textbook, "Sci
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Ed.
dy: But there went up a mist from
the earth, and watered the whole
face of the ground The second
chapter Of Genesis contains a state
ment of this material view of Goo
and the universe, statement
which is the exact opposite OF
scientific truth as before recorded

Four Of the opinions related to

such as double-office holding,

Referring to elections he gave
these opinions:
While a person who has been
convicted or confessed his guilt in
open court of a crime punishable
by Imprisonment in the states
penitentiary may not vote in
North Carolina unless his citizen
ship has been restored, a person
who has been convicted of fec
eral offense in a federal court

LADS HERE QULZZED
 IN BLACK GAS" DEAL
Several from Local Vicinity Under Police Inquiry

A number of juveniles of Bloom field and nearby Hartford districts have been under investigation by local police and representatives of the State OPA in connection with what has been termed "a teen-age tlack market" involving several thousands gallons of gasoline.
 According to reports, the situa- ton was revealed through the CO., operation of a filling station oper- ator and local police. The station operator, it is said, reported that he had supplied local youthful motorist with gasoline for which he was offered coupons endorsed with registration numbers other than those displayed on the cars mark CTS.
 The Hartford papers state "a!l those believed to have been involv- ed have been questioned and 8 statement of participation is said to have been made in each in- stance" So far as it is known, no formal action has been filed against anyone as yet and it is not expected that more than one or two of the local boys will be charged with any very serious offense.
 The source of the large supply of gas coupons in the youths posses ion has not been disclosed but it has been definitely established that they did not come from and never belonged to the Bloomfield War Price and Ration Board. Rum ors of other developments having been uncovered in Chief Bowen's investigation have not been con- firmed.

Bloomfield Helps County
 Organization Over the Top

Collecting the largest amount of money ever contributed locally on leash in hand" basis, the Bloom field Red Cross War Fund com mittee under the leadership Of Hans P.

Jack Hoover the active directive head of the county campaign organization announced at noon March 31 that the overall ] quota of $936,OOO had been achieved and predicted that supplementary and final reports from the various soliciting units would boost the grand total to close to a million dollars.
 A town wide rally held at the evening, March 24, featured the local campaign to keep the Red Cross at his side. During a pro gram of entertainment provided by the High School orchestra, vocal selections by MT. and Mrs. Wm. Fuss and musical skit staged by members of the Federated Church Guild, Rev. John s. Kennedy, ed itor of the Catholic Transcript ad- dressed the gathering. The rally collection amounted to $11O.8O.
