GIN. CHENNAULT
PLANS TO RETIRE
nv CLYDE A. FARNSWORTH

KIJNMING, China, July 14.-Pe
roi Gen. Claire Lee Chennarlt,
Commander Of the U. S. 18th Air
sorca in China and former colorful
LADDER of the famous Flying Tig.
49, said today that he was leav-
~ China and would retire from
We Army after returning 20
America,
Cbennault, 54year-oid genius
md guiding light behind the stea-
-. Growth of American air power
T., China, announced his resigna-
zion at a press conference here
two DAYS after the appointment of
- Gen. George E. Stratemeye1
90 commander of an augmented
= s Air Force in China.
chepnault's 18th Air Force,
which took the place of the gen.
erals brainchild-the spectacular
american volunteer group of Fly
Inc TIGERS" - has wiped virtually
every Japanese plane from Chi
ma skies.
The Japanese now are beaten in
the air in China Chennault said
in his resignation statement.
An old transforming pilC., Chen.
nault called in correspondents to
tell them of his decision as 1t.
Cen. Albert C. Wedemeyer, COM
mander of all United States forces
in the China theater, said in Chung
king that he had accepted Chen
nault's resignation.
Chennault pointed out that he
retired once before eight years
ago because of his health and that
he had spent most of the inter-
vening years in China. He went
10 China in 1897 to work for the
Chang Kai-Shek government, and
in 1912 was recalled to active duty
with the U. S. Army.
Chennault said he hoped to re-
turn home as soon as Stratemey-
ers organization had been perfect
ed.
In Calcutta, Stratemeyer,. COM
mander of the All ed Eastern Air
Command until it's recent disband
ing, declared that the Army air
force is losing an outstanding Of
ficer as a result of Maj. Gen.
Chennault' decision to retire"
Cooperating under almost incon-
ceivable difficulties he has led his
fighting 18th Air Force to great
victories," Stratemeyer said. His
aircraft ranged the length an d
breadth of China, making every
gallon of gasoline, every bomb and
every bullet count.
They have given magnificent
cooperation to the ground forces
of our Chinese Allies and inflicted
untold damage on japanese ship
ping and communications routes.
Chennault's splendid example al
ways will be shining inspiration
to us as we tackle the tremendous
job which lies ahead"
Chennault, one of the greatest
American precision filters, built up
Allied air power on the Asiatic
mainland from a handful of outdat-
ed Chinese planes to the powerful,
sky sweeping 18th air force.

Social Situations

THE SITUATION: You are rid
ing on a train and a woman sit
ting near you is travelling with
small child.
WRONG WAY: In an attempt to
be friendly and helpful, offer the
child candy.
RIGHT WAY: Realize that the
mother may not want the child to
eat candy, and so offer to read
to the child or otherwise help en-
terrain it if you. really want to be
helpful.

WELCOME PEACE

New York always goes over the top with demonstrations. Maga- zine pictures and news reels have shown most of the worlds civili- zed people what happens in Man haitian when the King of England calls on a goodwill mission or when l-wind-in-face Corrigan comes home. But now I can boast that I saw Gotham's widest riot of joy. Japan's surrender touched off the biggest of them all.
 I was having what we South erners call supper in the dining room of midtown hotel at 2 o'clock pm. EWT, on August IA when Washington released the of ficial announcement. There was just one breath of unusual quiet before bedlam bore down. How long does it take a cab driver to reach his siren after his radio brings big news? That's how long the quiet lasted. People seemed to go wild.

Alaska, the CAB examiners gave thorough consdera- iton to the general air traffic pattern They cited facts and figures showing that the historic route to the Orient has been from the Pacific coast but that the east has
 much stronger community of interest with the Orient that the west coast The examiners found that Cafor- AT per cent of the west coast business with the Orient Oregon two per cent and Washington state four per cent Thus the examiners concluded that the already existing Central Pacific air route to the Orient out of San Francisco amply serves this business.
 Much to Seattles chagrin the examiners held in eff fect that Washington state generates insufficient busi- to warrant direct air line to the Orient With this conclusion Seattle takes issue.
 The North Pacific route from Chicago to the Orient via Alaska proposed for the purpose of serving the population east of the Mississippi river Facts were cited showing the need for it and forecasts made that business this route would exceed all other Pacific routes within few years after operations begin

THE RECOMMENDATION
Anchorage Times)

Of first interest is the recommendation ot the CIVIL Aeronautcs Board examiners, the report that served the spark that started the present xaminers after many days public hearings and more days of studying the exhibits presented at the hearings recommended the following for Alaska
 l. That two air carriers be certified to operate the coastal route of serving the Alaska trade These two carriers will serve every major community within Alas ka The prospect of two carriers serving the most i'm portant route to and from Alaska competing Wtn eac other has proven einently desirable from every quar- ter. There is no controversy this proposal
 g. That another carrier operate over an inland route from New York and Chicago to the Orient by way or EJoonton Anchorage and the Aleutan chain This is the proposal which has been the basis for all the dscu sions and the resulting confusion.
 It was only natural that Anchorage should lead the eliminate it. This city stands to gain most Ii the route IS established Nevertheless, other Alaskan communities can we'll afford to support for the many indirect fife tb.t would accrue to the Territory whole and which will be outlined herein
 While proposing the inland route from Chicago to

is going to be all right"

is going to be all right"
 But what are the facts? They are far from the thoughts of such a tumult-Firing has ceased. Fac tories that made war goods are closing down as government can cells orders. Families are waiting for young mean to come home. For the next IA months military authorities will return the equiva- lent of one combat division, 15,0OO men, to civil life every day.
 Our Gravest Need
 To live contentedly men must have good jobs and hope of ad- vancement. Jobs for men call for investments, on the average, of $6,O0O per job. Not much has been done to encourage investment lately; much has been done to discourage it. War is over but war taxes and regulations remain. Wisely imposed to take profit out of war they threaten now to take prosperity out of peace.
 American efficiency produced the goods that made victory pos sible. The war did not put our Republic to it's supreme test; the peace will. Americas trail to a prosperous postwar period has not been we'll blazed. With grow ing intensity we are needing some thing sorely and need it now in a hurry: The right tax structure for the most jobs.

Clamorous tumble

Human voices could be disting- uished at first, along with the mechanical din, put presently very little was distinguishable except by sight. Bent on seeing, however, I quit the hotel and walked west with the traffic which I later learned was storming from all di- rections toward Times Square. l never got much closer than five blocks to the focal point. It was too dense for me at 47th street and Fifth avenue.
 Women leaned out of skyscrap- CT windows, shrieked and emptied wastepaper baskets. Down like a gray snow came shredded news print, yards of new wrapping pa- per, good stationery-and it did not stop until Fifth avenue was literally earpeted. Air borne rib bons of ticker-tape crawled in and out among the towers like myster- ious aerial serpents. Buses and cabs were jammed with people in hysterical celebration for hours.
 At The Bright Lights
 An officially estimated two mil lion men and women made up a seething mass that centered at 42nd street and Broadway, and one idea semed to dominate them completely: Wars over" The words were shouted repeatedly in every dialect with which I have any acquaintance, and undoubted- ly many more. The emotion of the multitude said, 'Now, everything
