Laurel outlook., 1945-12-12

through the streets. You see an
amazing amount of military traffic
of every type and description both
U. S., English, and Indian operated.
The U. S. made equipment is very
predominant. Especially the good
old jeep. Then you see the oxen
pulled carts piled high with many
different items of trade, hand pulled
carts all very rickety with their
wheels all out of line, many differ
ent types of taxis, everything from
the old open Oakland, to the Al
Ford. The taxi drivers are really
making a take off of the Gl's.
Then there are the many busses, all
very much worn out and piled high
with natives, the trans, some fairly
new and fast, which we ride on
occasions, and then the old ones
which go into the native out of
bound districts. 1t is fun to just
walk around and watch life move
around you.
Our camp here is only II miles
from Calcutta and is really a dream
compared to Shamshernager up IN
Assam. We have a we'll stocked
PIX, with coke and sandwiches all
the time, an enlisted mems club
that is really super. And the work
here is light, we have twice too !
many personnel for the job on hand |
so we are not working too hard.
In a way this is not so good as 1T
makes time pass so much slower.
The many months l spent up the
valley passed relatively fast as we
were really busy getting the tonnage
over the Hump. 1t is just about |
over now and the end of next month
should see the finish of ATC as
the lifeline to China. Hope they
get lot of boats over here soon.
The mail is very slow lately and
l have not had any Outlooks for
ages and very little in the line of
letters. l have heard little of the
Polio epidemic and pray that it is
over by now.
Oh, yes, went to a state party
the other night and there was only
myself and a boy from Billings
Montana, but what we
lacked in numbers we made up for
in enthusiasm and Montana was
we'll represented. We let no one
step on her toes.
| hope this finds you all well and
happy but busily engaged in putting
out the paper. l hope I am for
tunate enough to be able to drop
in on you one day soon with mer-
ry Hello, but until that time ar
rives best of everything to you all.

Cpl. George H. Shearer, Barrack-
pore, India, Oct. 90:
You can well imagine my surprise
last Sunday morning when young
and l must admit good looking first
lieutenant in the U. S. army walked
in the office and asked for me. 1t
took me a second to recognize him,
Mat Hartley, whom l hadn't seen
in many years and hadn't heard
about him in over a year. He didn't
recognize me at all but that is
natural as 1 am getting fat and
have undoubtedly changed a good
deal since he knew me as a boy.
Mat is stationed about 70 miles
from me and is in the air force.
We had a grand old time kicking
the proverbial ball around, about
old times, comparing notes on In
dia and our lives in the army. Mat
has done very we'll for himself IN
this mans army and appeared to
be the ideal officer. He is quiet
but has that air of knowing his way
around that is so vital to success in
the army. Wish I had more of it!
A few days ago ran into Emil
Ebersviller at the Red Cross club,
t was extremely interesting to talk
% him as we were inducted to-
yether. If he had come over
seas when l did and in the same !
outfit he would have enough of
hose good old points to get home,
,ut at that he beats me by a good
leal.
Speaking of the Red Cross they
;ure are a corner of stateside in
his country of many contrasts.
They run three clubs in Calcutta
or the enlisted men. Two in diff
erent parts of town for the white
nen and one for the colored.
AVE visited them all and they are
ii very good. You can get the
,ood old stateside hamburger and
oke, and complete meals for just
alf the price you have to pay at
he local establishments. All
through my army career | have
ound the Red Cross very much on
he ball and really help to the
man.
This Calcutta is really an amaz-
ng town. l get a kick out of riding

and few less headaches. For sew
eral days l have been making out
number of re-enlistment papers
for men staying in the army. hope
l get lot, for the more men who
re-enlist the sooner l get to go
home. l should be home in the
early spring or early summer.

w ASHINGTON. Feb. 28.- tAP)-President Roosevelt re- turned from the Big Three" meeting with buoYant hopes of an enduring peace. and will soon be ready 10 report 10 the Congress and the nation. if was revealed today.
 Initial statements by the Pres ident disclosed that not every thing was agreed upon at the Yalta meeting, but some secret understandings had been reached which must necessarily remain secret for a while, although they will become apparent in time.
 The Chief Executive has high hopes of worldwide peace with universal reduction in armament.
 In the weeks ahead the Presi- dent has an active program and will probably report to Congress tomorrow or Friday on the meet ings in which he, Churchill and Stalin, ssblue-printed" the final defeat of doomed Germany.
 Roosevelt came ashore at an east coast port last night and reached Washington this morn ing by special train.
 As the cruiser zig-zagged to- ward the American shores, Roosevelt reviewed the Crimean conference and spoke of his as- pirations for the future of world security.
 He disclosed to reporters on the three major news services, who met him in Algiers and trav- eled home with him, the original plan for the occupation of Ger many. This plan is for Russia to take over the eastern area Brit ain the west and northwest, and the United States, the southern part.
 This country will have the area below the bend of the Rhine at Mainz, including the provinces of Bavaria and Wurtemberg, with the supply corridor to the sea at Bremen on the north.
 The arrangement is subject to change, particularly in the pro- posed zones because of a decision to offer France an opportunity to keep her thumb on the Reich.
 Roosevelt viewed the confer ence at Yalta as one of series of steps toward a better world. He stated, with exultation, that the American public press had a right to say that the barley was virtually unanimous and was great achievement. This is the best he added.
 The war with Japan was not even mentioned at Yalta.
