not always possible and many times,
sentries had to be killed in hand-to-
hand fighting by sudden attack
with a knife. 1" Although the Ger
mans made every effort to protect
their planes against such attacks,
approximately 300 enemy planes
were destroyed by this guerilla unit
in single 12-month span.
Captain Smith, writing in the
early days of the war, says, sin case
of the invasion of Europe" the
benefits derived from gueriHas
would be "of the greatest assistance
to an army opening bridgehead."
Well, not only the land guerillas
but also the men who come up out
of the sea by night are Of greatest

by the romantic name of "com-

American designation Of "scouts and

Brazil Begins Production
OF Ouinine Tablets

Brazil has begun manufacture for
the first time of quinine, which was
formerly imported chiefly from the
Far East. The first tablets of quiz
nine made in Brazil were presented
to President Getulio Vargas at the
government palace by the directors
of the Brazilian Quinine company of
Sac Paulo. In 1910 Brazi1's imports
of quinine were valued at $3.50, 600.
Cultivation of the cinchona, from
which quinine is obtained, began in
Brazil in 1888 when the United
States department of agriculture
presented Brazil with 1000 seedlings
of the cinchona, imported from the
Far East. Some of the seedlings
persisted after arriving in Rio de
Janeiro, but others delivered to the
Astronomical Institute of Compinas,
in the state of Sac Paulo, developed
well. At that time the government
Of the state of Sac Paulo appropriate
ed funds to finance initial operations
in connection with acclimatizing the
frst-grade quinine.
In 1899, a United States botanist
presented Brazil with 1000 seeds of
another variety of cinchona-cincho-
ma calisaya-and nurseries were es-
tablished in Tijuca in the federal dis
trict.

Aluminium Foil Confuses

Allied plane losses from ground
gunfire have been cut by the use of

device were made public for the
first time.

Christmas tree tinsel becomes the
target of radar-directed guns, while
the planes themselves move out of
the line of fire.
This method of combating radar-
directed guns, first used by the
British and later perfected in the
United States under the direction Of
the war department, has been
copied by the Axis powers, but be-
cause of Allied air superiority. it is
being used to greater military adj
vantage by our own forces.

Fountain Gushes Blood

The "Fountain Of Blood" flow
ing from a grotto near La Virtud,
Honduras, is one of the worlds
strangest sights. The liquid, which
coagulates and has the appear
ance of real blood, obtains its
color and consistency from a
microscopic organism that dies in
it.

"Halt-,uho's there?"
This sentence, barked out in one
startled exhalation, stopped the
stealthy form which had suddenly
materialized out Of the shadow OF a
plane. His dark wet suit stuck to his
1.-the form. His hands went up as
the sentry's bayonet stopped just
short of his midriff. There was no
moon. The two figures, hardly
visible to each other in the black,
froze for second as the sentry's
nervous trigger-fnger grew little
more steady. He called the guard.
There was the crescendo scuff-
scuff-scuff Of hurrying feet and
moment later, the sentry was patrol
ling the airdrome again very much
on the alert. ;.
For the fifth time, ask you
where you came FROM" the angry
colonel demanded. For the fifth
time came the same answer from
the prisoner in the wet jungle suit.
"Private, first class, James
O'Fallon, Serial No. 3O30496."
'"Take him away" said the
colonel finally, ''he can stay in the
guardhouse for the duration"
The guards hustled No. 3030496 off
to the hoosegow where he stumbled
over an assortment of "AWOLS'
and other bleary-eyed offenders. He
saw three other men lying peace
fully on the floor arrayed like him.
But no sign of recognition on their
blackened faces.
Bloodless Raid
Private first class O'Fallon and
his four comrades (although the
colonel didn't know it at the tinne)
were the only men captured out OF
a raiding party Of 40. The rest had
slipped catlike over the whole air.
base, chalked their initials on
planes, sketched the location of the
radio room, noted the position of the
antiaircraft guns, estimated the size
of the garrison, checked each rock
and sandbar in the shadows
through which they had crawled be-
fore they reached the beach.
OF course, this was only a prac-
tice raid like dozens Of others, the
preparation for which I have wit
messed. But real bullets had twice
that night whistled out over shad-
ows and set the big grey Snauzers
yipping and the fashlight stabbing
into the black sky above the base.
The unwritten story of these spe-
cialists will all come out some day.
The Japs did this kind of thing at
the beginning of the war and we
thought it incredible. The British did
it later with their brilliant "com-
mandos."
The old name for it is guerilla
warfare fighting behind the
lines, or in the more official Ian
guage of an article by Douglas
Smith in that trenchant military
publication, the Cavalry Journal, "a
phase in trained armed warfare that
concentrates on destruction (the
raiders destroy, the scouts merely
get information) Of enemy person
mel and equipment in the enemy's
own territory"
Back in the French and Indian
wars, the ancestors of Douglas
Smith began learning these tricks;
Captain Smith, an American citizen
and later of the French foreign
legion, has put on paper some of
the principles he has adduced from
his own experiences in World
War II.
