Sergeant Grabs Generals Pants, Forces
Him to Fall Down Out Of Japs Line Of Fire

OUR losses were heavy during the
" scattered fighting that re-established
our positions, and the land we held was
now dotted with crude crosses marking the
last resting places of our dead. The
wounded were carried back to tented medi-
cal stations, where heroic medical corps
men and nurses attended them, and then
were moved farther back to our few hos
pitals near Mariveles.
Malaria, another ruthless enemy hung
over us like a black cloud enveloping a
land of men whose bones were Jumping
through their tightly-stretched skins.
Yet we knew that things would get
worse. Such portions Of the winding Pillar
Bagac road as were within our lines began
to come under the heavy fire of large artil-
lery pieces the Japs were bringing south
on the railway they now owned.
A detachment of the 14th Engineers
working feverishly, therefore cut a mar
row and sheltered road across Bataan
about six miles south of the Pilar-Bagac
highway, and in this makeshift way we
were able to maintain contact with Gen.
ParkerS forces to the east of us.
Parker's I'd Corps, | felt certain
would receive the brunt of the all out Jap
attack when it did come. The east coastal
area of southern Bataan is more of a
plain than the central and western areas
we now held. The streams on the east
side of the peninsula tend to run in a
SOuthwesterly direction
On the side my 1st Corps defended,
the streams normally run due west and
empty into the China Sea- Thus, any at
tack against the 1st Corps would be handi-
capped by stream crossings and successive
ridges. whereas the Japs would march
down Parker's side more or less parallel
to the streams.
7 ED often by Igorots, who magically
- knew their way about Bataan even
though they are mountain men from North
Luzon, | now sent out a series of patrols
into the Jap lines. These remarkable
forces, some Of them disguised in native
dress, were my best means of reconnais-
Sance; often my only means
From their reports knew the position
and movement of the Jap forces gather
ing Of an all out attack, and what they
told me of Jap troops and gear being
moved toward the east confirmed my be-
lief that Parker's I'd Corps would receive
the brunt of the blow.
Then, late in the night of March g.

through resisted all Jap efforts to rip
through to the pocketed Nips.
1t was a savage ferreting job Rifle
fire and machine gun bursts were of
little use, for the Japs were under
ground. We had so little infantry NOR
tar ammunition left that we could not
lob suitable barrage into their holes.
SO we had to 90 up and practically
breathe in the faces IF the dHg-in JapS.
1t was fighting that would be considered
fantastically improbable if seen on movie
screen. Junior officers with sacks Of gren-
AIDES drove up to the enemy's fOXholes
while sitting on the hoods Of our remain
ing tanks-and pegged the. grenades right
down the foxholes.
WHENEVER the answering fire was
w too tough, we called for volunteers
among the Igorot men Of the llth Division.
These incredible people, the greatest
guides ] ever saw. would ride the tops of
tanks whose matches were closed, and di-
rect the driver to the right foXhOle by
pounding with a club, first on one side of
the steel top of the tank and then on the
other.
These breath-taking performances
were only some of the improvisations we
had to adopt to stick on Bataan as long
as we did
Toward the end of the grim ferreting

my rear were successfully repulsed and so

No Tax Reduction

1t now appears that the General Assembly
will not offer any tax relief to North Carolina
ans. Governor Cherry in his recommendations
to the Legislature said, Il make no recon-
mendation to increase or decrease tax returns
to this General Assembly unless in your wis
dom it should be decided that the necessary
services Of the state only be met by the
levy of some new tax. further recon-
mend that no tax reductions be considered
except by way of minor change so that those
who are unjustly burdened may have relief
by adjustment or credits
While the Governor Of North Carolina does
not make the laws, he has more influence than
anybody else in shaping them. In latter years
our Legislatures have followed the Governors
recommendations Governor Rroughton held
the last one in the hollow Of his hand Don
look for any reductions in taxes despite the
big surplus piled up in the last two years
with prospect of greater increase. 1t isn't lr
the cards Whatever is done will be in isolated

Old-Time Price Ceiling

1t was rather surprising and most encour-
aging to learn that in recent poll OF auto.
mobile owners, rs per cent of those questioned
said they would not buy a new car if postwar
prices were Is or 80 per cent above the peace
time level.
After repeated predictions by economists and
others, lot of us had taken it for granted
that the release of wartime savings would
start buying spree that would exceed healthy
bounds and make price control necessary fo-
long time after the fighting had stopped.
Maybe those controls will still be neces.
sary. In the automobile field, for example
the controls should exceed the supply for some
time to come. And yet if this poll is repre-
sentative, it appears that already the average
citizen is conscious that this wartime none
tary honeymoon won't last forever, and is
beginning to feel the twinges of thriftness
Anyway, it's good to hear again that ole

Ruling The Waves

Coordination between Army and Navy ir
the Pacific seems really the key to progress
against the Japs. Invasion by troops follows
heavy, sustained bombardment by wa-ships
The support has been wonderfuld. There has
been rivalry in the past between the two
branches Of the service, as was natural, but
in the Pacific war they are matched team,
neither slackening trace, pulling together.
Our Navy is now mighty force. Once it
was one-ocean outfit; now it is in all oceans
1t is probably bigger and more powerful than
all the other navies in the world combined.
1t has everything. 1t is even capable OF making
landing operations alone. Battleship and plane
carrier cruiser. destroyer, many other types
Of ships-it has taken the place of Brittania,
which once ruled the waves
We were compelled to build and equip this
great Navy. It was that or decline to a weak
power. We should, even in peace, see that
never again must we wait in humliating sor-
row to build another. There should not be
any scrapping OF equipment We will have to
cooperate with other nations and trust them
to some extent. 1t will be easier to trust them
if we have a big Navy always on hand.

dark picture of polio. 1t is a disease that
physicians admittedly do not know great

where it will strike. 1t plays no favorites-

That progress has been made in bringing
down the death rate is great achievement.
Never was there such co-ordinated, coura-
geous fight made against it as was waged
last summer and fall and results were achiev-
&c.
OF 618 cases treated in three hospitals, there
were only 13 deaths. That is the record. It is
an astonishing one, and ascribed by some
experts to early diagnosis and early treat

but the record of these three hospitals-the
Emergency hospital at Hickory, the Orthoped-

Beyond Comprehension

President Roosevelt's budget figures, given
to Congress, indicate that the public debt is
expected to increase during the year by 40
billion dollars The expected total of debt will
be 292 billions.
These figures are astronomical. A person
can't comprehend them. Even Mr.. Morgen.
thau couldn't Nobody has to worry about it.
1t is something that worry will not help, and
the fellow who has to be careful to see that
he has dollar before he goes into restau-
rant will just waste time getting the head
ache over it.
AS long as the war lasts, there will be con-
tinued calls for money and the public debt
will increase. There is no other way around
it. War is the most wasteful of all businesses
This is something bad that struck us and
the cost can't be avoided
But it is private debt that can ruin the in

he is little Uncle Sam and that he can
follow the financial methods Of the Govern
nent The old rule holds-the individual must
take in as much or more than he pays out IN
the long run, or meet disaster.
The individual cannot issue greenback; he
has no mint. He can't stage personal bond
campaigns He must still do business on the
oldest principle in the world of finance-main-
