stories of the men who lead the armies
and of the leaders at home. Here are some
of the best:
One Of Stains favorite American visitors
was Mai. Gen. Patrick j. Hurley. the first
foreigner he permitted to inspect the battle
zone. At their first meeting. shortly after
America entered the war. Stain greeted him
bluntly: You are not doing 50 we'll"
"You didn't do 50 well either, in your first
year of war;" said Hurley.
I'VE would have done better, if we had
more help from you," said Stain.
ssYou would have had more help
Hurley reminded him, ssif you hadn't
made that pact with tho Nazis.''
Stain then said something to his inter-
prefer, who remained silent. General Hurley
turned to the interpreter and demanded:
What did he say?"
The interpreter translated this demand for
Stain, who nodded. The interpreter then re-
peated the Marshal's statement to Hurley:
''Comrade Stain say you one tough baby"
1t was General Hurley who flew to Mos
COW to arrange for Stains participation in
tie Teheran conference The details of time
and place were decided upon. and then Hurley
was asked what would be the proper way of

greeting Roosevelt and Churchill at the con-
ference. ''You just walk in and say these
words, I" the General suggested. Stain laughed,
promised to speak these English words. and
asked Hurley to write them out 50 he could
memorize them. "And at Teheran," he prom
ised, Il will greet the President and the
Prime Minister that way"
In the first few days of the conference the

Soviet Marshal could find no suitable occa-
sion to deliver the greeting he had memo
rized. But at the dinner which marked the
close of the conference be decided to find the
proper spot. Roosevelt and Churchill were

seated when Stain arrived. He made his
entrance by parting the portieres of the ban
uuet hall, staring at the assembled guests,
and their addressing to Churchill and Roose-
welt the greeting General Hurley had given
him" What the hell's going on here3'
Stain liked his American visitors. He
seemed to prefer receiving big industrialists
men like Donald Nelson. Eddie Ricken-
hacker and Eric Johnston rather than dip
lomatic career-men whose fortunes are de-
pendent upon political whim.
During his stay in Russia, Johnston. as
goodwill gesture. kept distributing Ameri-
can-made lemon drops and pencils half way
across the Soviet Union. Johnston halted
this practice when, at an official Soviet dinner
he attended. he found two packages next to
his plate The first contained lemon drops,
the second. pencils - all made in Russia.
Hopkins Flew - Moscow
HEN there was Harry Hopkins. When
administering lend-lease. he few to Mos
COW to arrange for munitions shipments, and
asked Marshal Stain why he thought Hitler
had attacked the Soviet Union. WAS it be-
cause Hitler believed Russia was weak?"
Hopkins asked. ''On the contrary" Stain
replied. 1T was because he knew we were
strong. Hitler knew that as long as such a
powerful war machine was at his back. he
could not turn to the front to try and destroy
England" He then entrusted to Hopkins
the message he wanted the President to re-
ceive: Tell him Joe pulls through"
After Hopkins came w. Averell Hartman.
Joe E. Lewis once asked Hartman: What
did Stain say, when you saw him the first
timer
He said Tanks" said Hartman. "Just

STORY CREDITS LOCAL BOY WITH DOING AMAZING JOB

Sergeant James Patrick Lind quist, a Bloomfield boy, is the featured character of "Baguio Trail" a featured article of the November issue of Coronet.
 The story, written by Sidney Carroll, the famed war cores pondent, describes one of the unusual accomplishments of Amer ican troops in the long hard scrap for Luzon in which many local men were engaged. It tells of the escape under Lindquists guidence of thousands of civilians from Baguio and the surrounding hills when that city became a battle ground.
 "All the time that battle was going on' says Carroll, ''in the midst of all the air and artillery fire, all day long and all night we were taking civilians out of Ba- guio, right through the Jap lines and under the Jap noses, through the fire from both sides and safe into our own lines."
 Lindquist, it is explained, work ed out the system of evacuation over a jungle route that took from three to seven days to negotiate. "Sometimes a woman would give birth on the trail," reports the author, "and Lindquist would play midwife. He told me about Filipino woman who had a child on the trail at four o'clock in the morning. That night she had the baby on her back and was on her way"
 Speaking further of Lindquist and what he saw of the Bloomfield boys work, Carroll says, "this tall, thin non-com, the major domo of the Baguio Trail, was do- ing one of the amazing jobs of the war;"
