which came to the post Office at the
Army's Camp Carson. COL. from an
anxious mother: will you please
send me a catalogue of the camp and
complete information as to what you
have to offer a 12-ycar-old boy and
how much does it cost?"

SU1p1I8E comment of the week
comes from an Army Air Forces
officer just back from the European
Theater of Operations. He declares
that Lieutenant General James H.
Doolittle is less well known by the
publie than any other topFanking
officer.
Through the years, he points out,
stories of Doolittle's flying feats have
created picture of a sort of one-man
flying circus. But the real Jimmy"
says our friend, far from being the
grandstander that most people imag-
inc him to be. is a self-efacing team
man all the way. Everybody under
him worships him. and would 60
through hell if he ordered it."
HIGH yU1R. That, of course, is
leadership. And it helps explain why
Doolittle, who came into the Army
from civilian life in 1910 with the
rank of major. now wears three stars.
At AZ he became the Army's youngest
lieutenant general. nosing out General
Clark by seven months. He had re-
signed from the Army in 1880, when
he was SO, giving advanced age" as
his reason.
1t was during his earlier Army serv-
ice, of course, that he made his name
as the oountry's No. l test pilot. But
his most daring stunts were always to
prove something about the plane,
not about Doolittle. A typical Doc
little report told first what happened
to the plane, then what happened to
Doolittle: Wings broke off. Thrown

Doolittle has always been a man
around whom other men flocked.

II WILL GET WELL...'' >
BY ELEANOR ROOSEVELT

'tOf course I win, but you will have to
promise me that you are getting well.
cannot see your mother without, bring
ing her good news"
Suddenly alive. he looked into my eyes
and said: Il will get well, Mrs. Roosevelt. )"
l felt 50 sure that he would keep his word
that was almost happy as I climbed into
our plane.
A couple of weeks later. / sat in my
apartment in New York waiting for this
boys mother. She is Italian-American
and was afraid she did not speak English
well enough - so she brought along her
daughter, and her other son, who was
waiting to go overseas in the European
area. They were so niee felt at home with
them at once, and told them all about
my visit with their boy.
WHEN / mentioned the blood plasma
that mad been given him - and how this
had saved his life - the young sister said
something that seemed to bring that little
island in the Southwest Pacific and our
activities here at home very close together.
"I'm so glad now that I've been going
to the Red Cross blood-d donor station"
she told me. Il feel almost as though
had been able to give him my own blood"
Then they told me that the boy already
had recovered enough to write that the
first lap of his trip home had begun - and
this in itself had had healing effect.
What impressed me most about this
family was that mother, sister and brother
all seemed to have rare understanding
of what their wounded soldier needed.
IHE brother had written that now he
was going overseas, it would be up to the
returning soldier to look after their moth
er. She is dressmaker and looked like a
very capable person. But l think she will
be wise enough to make this boy feel that
she depends upon him. She and her daugh-
ter both seemed to understand intuitively
that man must be independent, that this
boy must be made to feel that the women
of his family still turn to him just as they
used to do.
The fight of a seriously wounded soldier
to return to normal attitude toward life,
particularly when he has permanent
physical handicap, is difficult one at best.
Unhappily. we know that many more of
our young men will have that fight to
make in the months ahead. l hope that
we will all realize, as this family seems to
do. that confidence comes best to the man
who knows that he is not merely loved,
but needed.

Behind the injured soldiers
promise was a message to all
mothers of men in service. :.

TIVE sun was just setting as reached
Il one of our last island stops in the
Southwest Pacific had been there before,
and was given the young officers cabin
l had occupied on my previous visit. had
been in so many different abodes on this
trip, that coming back to the same cabin
was almost like coming home.
After had gone to the movies with all
of the boys stationed in this part of the
island, the Colonel told me that since my
last visit there had been an unfortunate
accident A tank had overturned and one
of the crew had been pinned under it.
For an hour and half the courageous boy
had lain there fully conscious, while they
tried to lift the tank from his body.
His injuries were serious and after being
operated on, he had to be told that one
leg was of. He took the news calmly and
they hoped that sulfa drugs and blood
transfusions would pull him through. But
after several days, infection set in, and his
temperature shot up. They felt he was
slipping, that he was losing his interest in
living - and they asked if would be will
ing to try to buck him up. The Command
ing Officer thought that early morning
would be the best time to see him.
/ WAS at the hospital at six-thirty the
next morning. The doctor and the Com
manding Officer were waiting for me, for
in this part of the world everybody gets
up at dawn.
Iwent in and tried to tell the boy that
when he got home he would soon find
himself able to use his new leg; that they
were doing such remarkable things with
artificial limbs that no one would be able
to tell that he had lost leg.
Politely he murmured: eyes, Ma'am,"
but his face held no light of interest.
Then asked, Where is your homer"
Brooklyn" he answered in the same
weak, faraway voice.
"Is there a mother or a wife waiting
for you there?"
Duly he whispered, MY mother"
Then hesitatingly, asked: Would you
like me to see your mother when l get
back, and tell her that have seen you?"
For the first time light came into his
eyes and his head turned toward me-
Almost eagerly he asked: would you do
that2"

Patent Given for Sub
Having 16-Inch Gun

A patent for a uper-submarine
carrying 16-inch gun which the
inventor says would have changed
the entire picture in the Pacific to-
day." has been granted Nevil M.
Hopkins, New York research en-
gineer, by the Patent ONCE, it was
announced today. IT. IT.
Mr.. Hopkins, saying his invention
was not a military secret, made the
following claims for his submarine
battle cruiser:
"A feet of 10 or IL of the new
super-submarines could be built for
the cost of one $100, 900 900 battle
ship mounting nine or twelve I6-
inch guns high above the water
line, and easily visible for 40 or so
miles.
THE feet of super submarines
would be invisible at long ranges;
could be deplcyed to advantage in
attack or defense and would be q
surf 1tising death trap to an on
coming aerial fleet of bombers or
aircraft carriers, battleships, or even
an enemy fleet of vessels, all of
which could be picked up by "radar"
at great distances"
Mr.. Hopkins quotes from a letter
from the Navy General Board dated
in 1910. saying the problems posed
by his Invention are not "insupera-
BILE" but that such a type of vessel
was not needed at that time. He
replied that he was continuing his
work in the interest of national
defense.

Russian UItimatunl
To Bulgaria 10 Change
Her Policy Reported

By the Associated Press.
ANKARA, May % CDelayedp.-
Russia will break off relations
with Bulgaria unless "the Bull
gars change their policy by mid
night, May 25," advices received
here by telegraph said today.
II These reports said the Bulgars re-
ceived the Soviet ultimatum in a
stern note Monday.
Bulgaria, not formally at war
with Russia, has been under heavy
two-way pressure from Germany
seeking to force more military sup
port from the Balkan nation, and
from Russia which is attempting to
bulge her from her Axis alignment
Although there have been signs
that the pro-German government
was shaking, little hope has been
held that the nation could Or would
chance a revolt until German mill
tary resources are strained even
more.
| Great Events Approaching.
Great and important events are
approaching" the now-commis-
stoned reserve officers of Bulgaria
said today in special message
broadcast over the Sofia radio to
members of the reserve organization
and to the Bulgarian people.
Without clearly indicating the ma
ture of what it termed an impend-
ing struggle" the message called
on the people to enter ''the front
lines" of the struggle and declared
that "the internal front must be
solid and the nation continually
aware of the great. problems of state
organization"
The broadcast message, reported
by United States Government mon
itors. invoked the lucky star" of g.
year-old King Simeon and the i'm
mortal strength of the whole Bull
garian nation in urging not to let
"sufferings break our spirit"
Premier's Resignation Reported.
Meanwhile, a flood of rumors
poured from foreign sources con-
corning Bulgarian developments.
The Bern correspondent of the
Stockholm Tidningen reported last
night that Premier Dobri Bojilov
had resigned Sunday after receiving
Russian warning to drop military
cooperation with Germany.
The Berlin radio quoted foreign
Office spokesman as saying, how
ever, that Bojilov's cabinet would
carry on.
A Tass, Soviet news agency, dis
patch from Istanbul said Bulgarian
regional directors had joined in de-
manding drastic measures to in
sure order" and quoted them as say
ing it would be dangerous to de-
mand a full program of food de-
liveries from the peasants"
A clue to the extent of general
Balkan unrest came from another
Tass report that more than TOO per-
sons in German dominated Ro-
mania were executed in the last
month for spreading panic ru-
mors" and "antigovernment agita-
ton"
