Ing IN Oakland County but with
ramifications in Highland Park
and Detroit, is only one Of many
sensational crimes in which inveS-
tigation has been hampered by a
lack of definite leadership.
NEED SINGLE HEAD
This implies no criticism of the
authorities who are conducting an
Investigation. Many high police
officials concede, however, that
great deal of confusion, duplica-
tion of effort and buck passing
would be eliminated if some one
officer had the power TO direct all
the investigating agencies con-
Cerned.
The cases which pose knotty
turisdictional problems often so
unsolved. Leonard pointed cut.
The murder of State Senator
Warren Hooper, shot near Spring
port, in jackson County, as he
was driving from Lansing TO his
home in Albion provides a case n
point.
Many of the events believed to
have a bearing on his death had
taken place in Lansing, which is in
1ngham County; but conspirators
were found TO have plotted his
death in Detroit.
Four men were found guilty of
the conspiracy-but no one has
been charged with the killing.
RECALLS MACoMB CASE
Another case which Leonard re-
called from personal participation
was the torch murder of Sam
Macciocchi, whose burned and
bullet-riddled body was found
some years ago on Macomb
County roadside.
Evidence indicated that he
might have been killed in Wayne
or Oakland County," said Leon
ard. after the jurisdictional
squabble had been Strengthened
out, a man was charged with
the murder. He was acquitted,

Coordination Of enforcement
agencies might be arranged in sew
eral ways. The one favored by
Leonard is simple 1t would not
necessitate any new personnel; but
would be merely a change of law.
"W benever jurisdictional
problems arise, the law should
empower some official to desig-
nate one officer TO have charge
of the investigation" Leonard
says.

Suicide Stand Of Japs
Changes Rules Of War
Continued from Preceding Pagep


TT WAS about that time-when we fell
Il back to what must be our last position
on Bataan-that my friend Frank Hewlett,
the war correspondent, wrote the little tune
which went:
We're the battling bastards of Botadn
No HaoH,1aa, poppa, no Uncle Sam
No aunts, no unctes, no nepheUs, no nieces,
No rifles, no guns or artillery pieces
And nobody giUes damn.
The first blows the Japs threw at us in
our new positions down toward the tip of
Bataan did not come from the north, as
was expected. In the midst of our move to
our last ditch, the enemy landed at four
points along the southwestern and south
ern extremity Of the peninsula, sternly
threatening my Corps left rear flank and
imperiling the only road that led from my
front line to the southern tip of Bataan.
The Jap landing at Longoskawayan
Point, not far from Mariveles and the
mostly southernly of the rear attacks, was
\ well contested by battalion of the Forty
fifth Infantry fScoutst and by $50 sailors
under the command of Cmdr Bridget,

The force that came ashore at Quin-
auan Point, at the other end of the four
pronged landing ran into a small, tough
group Of Air Corps Engineers and Maj.
Dudley G. Stricklers fine Third Battalion
of the Forty-fifth Infantry.
At Agloloma Point the Japs hardly
touched the beach. Troops along the beach
defenses shelled and machine -gunned them
as they neared the shore, and our P-40's,
happy to be rid of reconnaissance duty,
strafed the landing boats, sinking and scat
tering them.
The fourth landing, on the tiny penin
sula between the Anyasan and Salaiim
rivers, was the most serious threat, most
likely to cut the road that led south to Mari
veles-ta -take-off point for Corregidor, which
stood like a bulwark to our rear.
MISCELLANEOUS units defending the
AVA peninsula between the Anyasan and
the Salaiim were thrown back by the force

fantry-the Ffty-seventh (Scouts)-to
rush to the support of the motley defend

The battle of Quinauan Point lasted II
bloody days and night, during which time
Maj. Stricklers Third Battalion performed
heroically. This great battalion had to fight
virtually alone | could not send anything
else down there without weakening my
main front to the north-a front which al

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 - P-
President Truman designated new

Navy today to lead the transition
to peace-Gen. Dwight D. Elsen-
hover and Admiral Chester W.

The President expressed the
conviction to his news conference
in the firmest possible tones that
we will have permanent peace.
Eisenhower succeeds General
George C. Marshall as Army Chlef
of Staff Immediately. His nominal

Of staff.
Nimitz will replace Admiral
Ernest J. King as Chief of Naval
Operations after Christmas. Mean
while Nimitz will return to his

the Mediterranean theater, sue

Of U. S. forces in the European
theater. commander-in-chief of the
U. S. occupation forces in Germany
and U. S. representative on the AL
lied Control Council for Germany.
The formerly separate European
and Mediterranean theaters will
be combined next month.
Admiral Raymond E. Spruance,
commander of the Fifth Fleet, will
step up to Nimitz' place as naval
communicating chief in the Pacific.
King had the title of Commander
In-Chief of the U. S. Fleet as well
as Chief of Naval Operations but
the former title was abolished
about two months ago in a Depart
mental reorganization.
| Both Marshall and King asked to
retire Immediately after the Jap
anese surrender, Mr.. Truman re-
ported, but he found himself un-
able to let them go earlier.
General Henry H. Arnold, chief
of the Army Air Forces, and Cen
eral Brehon Somervell, chief of the
Army Service Forces, also have
asked to retire, the President said
in response to a question, but their
request has not been granted.
A reporter commented that in

posal pending in Congress to unity

COMMISSION WILL
HEAR CARRIERS

RALEIGH, N. c., Nov. 20-(R)-
The State Utilities Commission
said today it would hear on Novem-
Der 30 new petition filed by the
states interstate motor freight
carriers for general increase in
rates.
Proposals carried in the new Pc
tition would raise carrier rates on
freight to an aggregate of 10 per
cent above previous rates.
The commission on October II
granted the intrastate freight car
riers a general increase aggre'
eating approximately 81 per cent
in class rates and an increase of
per cent in commodity rates. OPP.
orators had asked for a general
increase of 10 per cent, contending
that they were operating at loss.
