In the entire force now, probably
slightly less than half of the Kiska

Last March stories about the

they had made their name known

made up duplicating their shoulder

stickers on Germans they killed. on
guns they destroyed and even on
German command post doors.

found a description they liked best:

Aug. 20 delayed (R.-One of the
biggest fish yet caught in the inva-

year-old man identified as Fernand
Bouisson, barrel-shaped, bald -head-
ed, goateed former President of the
Chamber of Deputies.
He was found hiding at the house
Of friend miles from st. Raphael
and was jailed pending judicial pro-
cedure.
For safety, he was imprisoned at
Draguigan. and this morning the
French Partisans paraded him and
other prisoners for the benefit of

1t was bitter pill for the man
who for 10 years was Mayor of
Marseille and former national head
of the Socialist Party. He was
paraded with motley throng of
Gestapo spies and one woman whose
head had been shaved for consort-

A huge crowd gathered around the
gendarmerie and booed and jeered
Tough young Partisans kept rifles
and machine guns at the ready.
BouiSson. who was Merchant Ma

who became Marshal Petain's Infor-

his head down during the short walk.
Bouisson was Premier Of France
for five days. The cabinet he formed
May 81, 1885, collapsed on June 4.
He once was candidate for the
presidency of France. but withdrew,

Power

manpower and our ability TO alb
sorb staggering losses.
Overwhelming quanti ty is
often a cure for failures in other
directions.
The enemy fortunately also
makes mistakes and that too
helps to make up the balance.
My point is that a victory
does not necessarily mean that
the new methods used to attain
it are valid everywhere for all
time.
The part of national wisdom
is to leave ourselves mentally
free to study the facts and to
provide unrestricted scope for
the chronological realities of to.
morrow.
MO such freedom is possible
~ unless our military struc-
ture of the future is saved from
Nominations by any one branch
of the military forces.
From this point of view the
unyielding attitude of certain
navy leaders in the matter OF
releasing air power to develop
its full strength on an autono-
nous basis seems TO me truly
alarming.
Now that Mr.. Forrestal, who
has been the spokesman for the
most conservative naval views.
is secretary of the navy, the
problem is even more serious.
In Europe, stategic air power
is delivering stunning blows to
the enemy.
There is the possibility that
these blows have softened the
enemy to such a degree that
soon after the great invasion be-
gins the German resistance may
crack, then collapse.
If that happens, the surface
invasion. rather than the de-
cisive air strategy that pre-
ceded, will seem to have at
tanned the victory.
The proponents of old-style
surface strategy, rather than
air strategy. will seem out
wardly to have been right.
Surface strategists will be
fortified in their discounting
and misunderstanding of air
power. and that would bode i'll
for the future.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
r. H:-If a woman 35 years
old donates pint OF blood TO
the Red Cross one month and
becomes pregnant the next will
this have any effect on her and
her baby?
Answer: There Is no real
danger. One can lose a third OF
the blood in the body without
immediate danger which is
four times as much as a Red
Cross donor gives.
Puzzled-What causes Alo-
pecia Areata and Is there any
cure for it, I have been told
there Is no cure.
Answer-A lopez Areata
consists of patchy spots of COM
plete badness. The cause is un-
known. The tendency is for
spontaneous recovery and no
treatment Is necessary.
F. M. l.: Is the Galatest pow
der a reliable test for sugar.
Answer: Galatest and Gina
test powders are the bismuth
test which is just as reliable as
the Benedict "COPPER" test. None
Of them show how much sugar

Because the land-and-air team
in Europe, the land-sea-and-air
team in the Pacific, may win the
war, there is the danger that
these strategies will be accepted
as permanent and beyond criti-
cism.
The leaders responsible for
these strategies. by the same
token. will possess the prestige
to prevent free thinking and
planning in line with the tech
