Great People

these days of loose talk about thugs of labor and
thieves of industry about crooked politicians and grating
army officers it is good TO recognize some Of the really
great people Of this nation.
In the first place this loose talk We mention is far too
loose. What few men do too often enlarged
and labeled for whole group And for some of the
criticized action there generally contributing caus
Of motvatng importance but the net result of the cr
cism is the whether justfabe or not.
What relief il then to turn TO the praeworthy, the
people oustandngly grand and good that criticism
would find listening Take for example General
Marshall who made when he spoke in the Pearl
Harbor investigation. The nearest he to
was the comment that a good many important papers
passed his desk every day. He didn't say that
his high ranking aides should have directed his
special attention the fact that Pearl Harbor
local alert against sabotage instead of general alert
against enemy attack He made mention of the respon
sby of Pearl Harbor officers the arrangement Of planes
wing wing for greatest destruction with least enemy eff
fort the massing of ships in the harbor Irresistible
target the failure to recognize warnings did he
that the trend in hgherup Washington was to invite an at
tack that would the United States into the war before
all lost in Europe There were no such excuses II
there blame implied in questions, Gen. Marshall at
tempted defense but like the truly big man he is he &C
cepted responsibility.
We have people like that right here in Ypsilant not in
positions conspicuous but in positions vital to the
muniy and the nation Take for example those Red Cross
Canteen who served veterans at the Welcome Home
party given Wednesday evening by the Ypsianti Good
fellows They served till past midnight just they have

real demonstration of Americansm in its fullest sense,
loyalty, service, skill perseverance, sacrifice
And the boys whom these canteen women served! No
words tell the story of their service There wives
there who have spent long anxious hours waiting for
young husbands to return.
Yes Ypsant has lot of really great people. They go
quietly serving, building enjoying life for what they
give than for what they receive with far too little
credit but loved by all who know them and respected for
their grand leadership and exemplary living These and
the thousands of others serving best they the
people who really great and the people who make

agencies OF Bernard Baruch's War
/ Industries Board and Herbert
Hoover's Food Administration. In
this war, similar agencies lacked
equal authority, either legally vest
ed OF morally established.
Against this single argument
favorable TO the Army side is the
broader and indisputable fact that
cooperation was achieved not only
among oil our services but also
with those OF Great Britain under
the Joint Chiefs OF STATS. That
there was no conflict between Gen.
eral Marshall and Admiral King
proves beyond doubt that competi.
ton among the services does not
exclude cooperation among the SER
vices. II was proved during the
war that such a formula was not
only possible but that Il was sue
cessful. And because II was sue
cessful. IL need not be changed.
A point that neither side seemed
10 emphasize was that the Army's
principal task is attack while the
Nays principal function is de-
tense. The Army in the past two
wars attacked the enemy on soil he
held; the Navy devoted itself gem
orally TO protecting our coast, our
transports, our conveys. The Army
is concerned largely with mass
manpower; the Navy with the ship
as a unit. The tasks differ in con
ception and no mind can &c trained
schizophrenically. One need only
observe Army and Navy officers to
realiz, how differing operations
produce differing mentalities.
But both serve America and slim
ulate each other by a competition
for the plsudits OF the American
people. For 1t is as true here as
in any other age or country that
the military man seeks to return
10 his home base a conquering
hero. Whether it is the laurel
wreath. the garland of roses. or
torn telephone books anc ticker
tape that greet the victor. il is
his compensation when he returns
from the wars. II is this competi-
ton for glory that makes the gem
eral and the admiral the PERSONAL

"In a way" said Mary, II think
1t was good for your mother to
have Audrey to look after. II took
her mind off her own grief-about
your brothers death, We were so
sorry about that"
Yes. Poor old Adrian. Always
did drive too fast"
There vas pause. Mary
stretched out her hand as a sign

down the hill TO Saltcreek.
Presently, as they were slipping
down the narrow twisting road,
she said:

her for the last 10 years"
mo. but You knew her as
child. She was like a sister to you
and Adrian"
He nodded
Was she-was she at all I'M
balanced in any way? Oh, don't
mean that quite the way 1t sounds.
But I've a feeling that there is
something very wrong with her
now. She's so completely detached,
her poise is so unnaturally perfect
but / wonder sometimes what Is
going on behind the facade. I've a
feeling, now and then, OF some
really powerful emotion. And
don't quite know what it Is! But
do feel that she isn't normal.
There's something! 1t worries me.
l 90 know that there's an at
mosphere In the house that affects
everybody. We're all nervous and
jumpy. But / don't know what it
is. And sometimes, Thomas, it
frightens me-"
"Frightens you?" His slow won
dering tone made her pull herself
together with a little nervous
laugh.
1T does sound absurd. . But
that's what I meant Just now
your arrival win be good for US

are"
They had slipped round the last
corner. Gull's Point was built on a
plateau Of rock overlooking The
river. On two sides 1t had sheer
cliff going down to the water. The
gardens and tennis court were on
the left OF the house. The garage
a modern sfter-thought - was
actually further along the road, on
the other side OF 1t.
Mary said:
I'll put the car away now and
come back. Hurstall will look after
you"
Hurstall. the aged butler, was
greeting Thomas with the pleas
ure OF an old friend.
Very glad to see you, Mr..
Royde, after all these years. And
so will her ladyship be. You're in
the East room, sir. think you'll

you want to 60 to your room
first"
Thomas shook his head. He went
through the drawing room and UP
to the window which opened onto
the terrace. He stood there a mo-
ment, watching. unobscrved him
self.
Two women were the only occu-
pants OF the terrace. One was sit
ting on the corner Of the balus-
trade looking out over the water.
The other woman was watching
her.
The first was Audrey-the other,
he knew, must be Kay Strange.
Kay did not know she was being
looked over and she took no pains
to disguise her expression. Thomas
Royde was not, perhaps, a very
observant man where women were
concerned. but he could not fail to
notice that Kay Strange disliked
Audrey Strange very much.
AS for Audrey she was looking
out across the river and seemed
unconscious Of, or indifferent to,
the others presence.
II was over seven years since
Thomas had seen Audrey Strange.
He studied her now very carefully.
Had she changed, and II so, in
what way?
