Once the Allies started moving
in, World War II, German gener
ais were neutralized almost az
fast as Japanese admirais.
Their departures from the
scenes of frustrated Nazi con
quests were chronicled variousls
in. such, reports as these:
KILLED in action" captured
by the enemy" replaced by
Gen. ~, "has left Germany"
died of wounds" said to be d
victim of Hitlerys purge" met
a heroS death" crowned the
fight for the Fuehrcr and the
National Socialist fatherland
with his death.
There is no accurate tabula-
ton of the number of German
generals who were lost in the
Nazi fiasco, but it is safe to say
that the best went to the Nazi
Valhalla, or were captured.
Among them were these dis
ciples of Prussianism or NazlSm:
Field Marshal Gen. friedrich
Paulus, commander of the crush
ed German armies before Stain
grad, captured with 16 generals
early in 1913. Paulus later joined
the committee of German officers
in Moscow and told the Germans
the war was lost
Marshal Erwin Rommel the
Desert Fox, Hitlcr's favorlte gen
cral, officially reported in the
Reich as having died of wounds
received on the Western Front.
Later reports said he was one of
the conspiratorS in the asSaSsina-
ton plot against Hitler in July.
1914.
Field Marshal Guenther Won
Kluge, former supreme command
tr of German forces on western
front, reported to have killed
himself in remorse over his re-
fusal to join the July revolt
against Hitler, which brought his
old comrades to death and tor
ture.

chief of STAFF, who repeatedly

mander-i chief of the German
army and Gen. Franz Haldcr

liquidated by the Nazi purge fol-
lowing the revolt. Der Fuehrcr
no doubt aided the Allied cause
unwittingly by removing superior
generals simply because they
could not agree with his amateur
ish strategy. One of these was
Field Marshal Gen. Wilhelm
Keitel.
An attempt was made to as
sassinate Keitel in November,
1914. No details were made
known. Later he was reported as
having inspected the last stand
defenses of the Nazis in Bavaria
Following the Hitler revolt in
July, 1914, Keitel was listed
among Junker generals who, at
odds with Hitler, had set up a
rival regime" Also listed among
the leaders of the new regime
was Field Marshal Fedor Won
Book who resigned in 1912 in a
row with Hitler over the Stain
grad dcbacle.
Another, whom Hitler probably
regarded as defeatist, was Gen.

The Allied armies on the west
ern front and in the Mediterran-
can theater were commanded en-
tirely by career soldiers of the
United States and Great Britain.
These were the victorious top
generals of the Allied command:
Gen. Dwight David Eisenhower,
supreme commander. II was the
cool, calculated judgment of q a
professional soldier that coordi-
mated the American and British
forces into 1.-THE machine athat

General Eisenhower was born
a Texan, October IA, 1890, and
reared in Kansas. He is a gradu-
ate of West Point.
Rapid Promotion
Rapid promotions took him in
35 months from lieutenant colo
mel to full general. He first was
sent to Washington to work on
war plans, to London as COM
mander of the Army's European
theater of operations, to Africa
for the Mediterranean campaign
and finally back to London as
supreme commander.

"How could the body of man,
who had been drowned during
the night, be floating the next
morning."
That question, County Judge
Raymond Lord said today, occur
red to him yesterday afternoon
while speaking with a relative of
Charles. Edward Thompson, gem
orally called Eddie Thompson,
who was found Sunday morning
floating off Marathon.
Judge LordSsaid he realized the
body of a man, who has been
drowned, generally does not float
for 48 to 70 hours.
Before the question occurred to
him, Judge Lord said that there
had not been any evidence of
foul play and he did not think an
inquest was necessary, but the
fact that the body was found
afloat a few hours after Thomp-
son had been seen alive, led Judge
Lord to believe that death had
come before Thompson fell over
board.
!. He explained that man who
I'd has his lungs filled
and that he remains
Submerged until his gall bladder
bursts and thereby initiates his
stomach, which brings the body
to the surface. Water, however,
docs not enter the body of man
who died on land, and, therefore,
the body floats Immediately. The
lungs cannot be filled with wa

QUESTION ARISES AS TO WHETHER
EDDIE THOMPSON WAS DROWNED OR
MET DEATH FROM OTHER CAUSES

ter without inhalation, such as
occurs when a man is drowning.
Judge LORD said that, when he
went TO Marathon Sunday morn
ing to view Thompson's body, the
face and neck were BLUSH black,
and the judge was informed to-
day that that condition could
have been caused either by cere-
bral hemoiThage or a heart at
tack. For that reason, it is be-
iievedfthat when Thompson fell
into the water probably it was
the last act preceding death.
This morning a coroner's jury
viewed the body in the Lopez
Funeral Home, and tomorrow the
jury and Judge Lord will go to
Marathon to hold an inquest.
The jurymen are j. Winfield
Russell, Charles T. Archer, Chas.
Curtis, S, Francis Barry, Willard
Gibson and Russell Kerr.
Members OF the jury examined
the body closely, and found a
scratch or slight cut in the back
of the neck near the base of the
skull. Otherwise, there were no
fresh marks on the body.
The bank draft for $4,000,
which Thompson is said to have
had in his possession when alive,
has not yet been found, Judge
Lord said. He added that he had
heard that some woman in Mara
thon had said that the draft lis
still in Marathon though she did
not say where it could be found.
