Lessons of War
(New York Timse)

General Montgomery, victor of many battles from Fl Alamein to Ortona declares that the key to success in modern warfare lies in combination of land power and air power, each directed by its own commander but operating under single plan. He outlines rules for the practical application of this fundamental proposition, practiced within his own famous Eighth Army
 General Montgomery regards the air force an independent weapon which be handled properly only by its own commander. But he also regards 1t as nterdependent weapon which must depend on the army for good landing grounds The army is, turn dependent the air force for both the pre- lmnary defeat of the enemy air force and for direct bombing of enemy positions during the actual battle You must win the air battle before you fight land battle he says, and he adds that the air aspect dominates the plan of operations" But as is being emphasized in Washington, it is the infantry which decide the victory and gain and hold the ground For that reason, says General Mont gomery, the air force and the ground force must be knitted into one sinble entity. Their commanders must be in the same headquarters, and there must be complete trust and confidence between them They must be very great friends
 That sounds like sensible proposition General Montgomery does not speak of the strategic air force for ongrange bombing, such is being inflicted on Germany. Nor does he speak of the navy, which is integral part of the amphibous operations that play large role in Allied warfare. But the prn cpes he outlines apply to all They alot the greatest possible scope to every available, according to the present stage of technical development But they also demand the greatest possible collaboration among all weapons, without jealousy pickering, and with the greatest mutual understanding for the problems of each They recognize that there is no easy road to victory, that wars not won by magclans trick and that every weapon produces counter weapon before it can become fully effective.
 It may strange that it should have taken a war to bring out such sef-evident truths But the rvaries and ealouses and bitter quarre of the past show that learn only from dire necessity. The latest operations in Europe and the Pacific indicate that the lessons have been learned and the new command set up in Europe provides assurance that
 they will continue to be applied in the decisive struggle to come. But it still remains to make certain that these lessons will not be forgotten after the they usually by victorious armies The fate of the vaunted armies of Frederick the Great at the hands of Napoleon the fate of the French Army in this the tragedy of Pearl Harbor all warn that neithet comfortable peacetime routine small ealousieS shall again keep armed forces behind modern technical development expose us to surprises from treacherous foes or new weapons which alert commanders could and should have foreseen.

CASEY AT THE BAT

Out in Chicago, year ago this month, rebellious Democrats began to kick over the traces at the man. ner in which Republicans were getting all the juicy plums in Wash ington while Democrats were being ignored. The man who came to the Presidents rescue at that meeting was Eugene Casey, a man who had lifted himself by the boot straps from a Maryland farm right into the White House.
 Casey had been out in the Middle West for months, listening to Dem ocratic tales of woe, and in Wash ington had been fighting Demo- cratic battles until he had become one of the few whom folks trusted He still is.
 He SalVed Democratic wounds last year at Chicago and he may be the one to do it this week at Wash ington. In fact, so many commit teemen are arriving already pledged to Casey for Chairman that, unless Frank Walker performs a miracle and puts over his Internal Revenue Commissioner, the farmer from Maryland may find himself with the unwelcome job of pulling the Democratic Party up by the

An indication of the tremendous scale on which the United States is moving essential war cargo and personnel by air the four of the globe evidenced in the preliminary estimates of Pan Amer ican Airways for the year 1943.
 One Pan American division completed more than nine times many Atlantic crossings for the Army Air Transport Command in 1943 than the entire Pan American System had made prior to Pearl Harbor
 In Alaska, Pan Americans operations for the Naval Air Transport Service and the civil routes the company has been pioneering since 1882 reached high for the year the military turned from defensive offensive strategy. July the climatic month in the Aleutians campaign and during that month PAA flew 447440 plane miles, 8l 657 cargo ton miles compared with 38190 plane miles and 41l3 cargo ton miles during the period in 1922
 The pilots brought their planes down new fields in the Aleutans while the fight for Attu was going on, hauling everything from men to PIT boat engines weighing 3,220 pounds.

HOROSCOPE E "The stars incline
 but do not compel"
SUNDAY, JANUARY B


 Adverse influences with planetary aspects unfavorable to labor rela- tions
 HEART AND HOME Extremes of human experience will be evil dent through wartime. While many families suffer hereavements, others appear happy and untouched by world conflict A few may realize long, g-deferred hopes.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Architects and builders, engineers and con tractors are to have a postwar per iod of unprecedented prosperity. They should begin now to plan for the rebuilding of foreign cities as well as the improvement of our own big centers of population.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Subversive agencies will subtly introduce peace propaganda into women's clubs, church congregations and business organizations. Weak-minded pa triots will be easily won.
 INTERNATIONAL A FAIR s :: Treachery and double-dealing among neutral" foreigners will be prevalent. We may meet with de- lays or reverses in carrying out of fensives.
 IF IT IS YOUR BIRTHDAY :: You should exercise caution in all your affairs throughout the year. Children born today will be un- usually clever, but probably nervous and high-strung.

MONDAY. JANUARY "A

Benefic influences favorable to initiative and encouraging inde- pendent thought and action.
 HEART AND HOME: A warn ing sign urges women in public life and war work to avoid causing gos- sip or criticism. III omens shadow those who ignore the opinions of others.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS With the war in it's most critical phases, re- conversion of war industries will start this year Immense produc- tion enables the nation to prepare for peacetime trade expansion and relief commitments
 NATIONAL ISSUES. Plans for prevention of unemployment after the war should be less vague. As poets seem to encourage much talk and little action.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS The effects of transient power on France and Italy will continue to confuse diplomats. Secret alleg- iances will be discovered.
 IF IT IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Your business and financial inter- ests should be fortunate but love affairs may be disappointing in the coming year. Children born today will be successful in early life but they may become vain and self centered.

boot straps at a time when it will take some Herculean pulling.
 Hannegan is Frank Walker s choice for National Chairman, not F'DR's. Inside fact is that the President did not want Hannegan on the ground that he didn't know him. The President, unlike 1940, is not adamant on any one man. He would take Eugene Casey, who is already on his staff and who knows the party, or genial Joe Casey, ex- Congressman from Massachusetts or Oscar Chapman, able Assistant Secretary of the Interior.
 Meanwhile, revolt in the Demo- cratic ranks is so fervid that Frank Walker himself took a trip out to the Midwest to Soothe ruffled feel ings-but failed. Despite his ef- forts, rebellious Judge Jim Quigley Nebraska National Committeeman has called an early meeting of the committee for today, to demand the resignation of Secretary of Agricul- ture Wickard and Farm Credit Gov ernor A. G. Black
 In the end, revolt will be so bad that harassed Frank Walker, much against his will probably will have to remain as National Chairman tTle Democratic National Commit tee is today in session. selecting a site and date for the national con- vention)

DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE
 LOBBYISTS

Back in the early days of the New Deal, a terrible hue and cry was raised over the fact that certain members of the Democratic Ma tional Committee also carried on a remunerative lobbying practice on the side The issue received so much publicity that the President denounced it publicly and called upon all committeeman engaged in lobbying to resign. AS a result, Bob Jackson of New Hampshire, Arthur Mullen of Nebraska and Bruce Kremer of Montana all re- signed from the committee.
 Today. however, the White House and apparently the public have lost their sense of smell For months, the same situation has existed, but the White House has said absolute ly nothing. Oscar Ewing. who rep resents the Aluminium Corporation of America, one of the biggest com panies doing business with the Gov ernment, holds no less a position than Vice Chairman of the Demo- cratic National Committee. Its Sec retary is George Allen, executive of the Home Insurance Company, one of the fire insurance group whose giant lobby against the Sherman Antitrust Act has been vigorously criticized on Capitol Hill
 Treasurer of the committee is Ed .Pauley, who had the decency to submit his resignation when his business put him in the position of lobbying for high-octane gasoline plant. However, unlike the days when FDR publicly demanded the resignation of Arthur Mullen of Ne braska from the committee, Pauley's resignation has not been accepted.

TAXES AND CAMPAIGN FUNDS

Recently. Frank Walker has made a unique move toward a similar situation, Privately, he is trying to persuade committee members to take Missouri's Robert Hannegan as the new National Chairman Hannegan happens to be Commis- sioner of Internal Revenue, and Frank Walker is either very naive or very forgetful of past Republican scandals when big contributors to the party did not have to worry too much about income taxes.
 Today Republicans are already licking their chops over the charges they could so easily hurl against a Democratic Chairman sitting in judgment over the income taxes of Democratic angels who contribute to the campaign fund
 NOTE-Hannegan, an able exec utive, is the Missouri Democrat who led the fight to refuse Missouri,s

Republican Governor, Forrest c. Donnell, his seat for forty days, until the Missouri Supreme Court ordered him seated Hannegan was first discovered by Assistant Presi- dent Jimmy Byrnes, who thought so highly of him that he sold him to Frank Walker as Commissioner of Internal Revenue.

DETROIT POLICE SEEKING
ORIGIN OF HOUSING fire

DETROIT, Oct. 13 (ANP)-
Detroit police are busy trying to
trail down the person or persons
that set fire to one of the palatial
homes in Watson park Wednesday
morning. The fire which demolished
the edifice followed a $1,50O,000
property settlement by Everett l.
Watson, to comprise a project for
constructing homes for Negroes.
Many citizens are of the opinion
that the fire was the work of per-
sons that protested against this
better home idea Of Watson's.
Watson, in the presence of a
small group of business men and
newspaper reporters, publicized his
new venture and announced also an
additional purchase which he closed
with white dealers, at a cost of
$125,000. The latter purchase was
made to remove the "sub-division"
stigma from the first section.
The project includes construc-
ton of 326 homes in the area and is
scheduled to begin within the next
80 or 40 days.
