Vital Job Awaits Boyd

E. Boyd Henry to his friends) in order that
he may resume his position with the Whining
ton Port Traffic Associations not later than
November is welcome news in business and
industrial ard particularly shipping circles n
Southeastern North Carolina.
Major Boyd has been doing important work
in the war program, chiefly in Louisville, in
moving materiel, for which his long familiar
ity with moving freight peculiarly fitted him.
There is responsible job awaiting him here,
for Wilmington is determined to make the best
OF its opportunity for port development, of
which land transportation is vital factor,
and in broad way the port must start from
scratch despite the movement for some
months OF cargoes for foreign destinations
His services will be the more valuable be-
cause of his military experience.

Murray's Example

Wilmington has an additional reason for eel.
ebrating the return of Captain Charles P.
Murray, Jr., upon his return to the city on
Monday. Not only did he win the Congressional
Medal of Honor. He plans to complete his
education which the war interrupted.
Perhaps, because Of the distinction that has
marked his military career, his decision will
influence more young men returning from
overseas service to do the same thing. It
would be well for them If they did.
Despite the hardship he and other service
men will experience at first in returning to
the class room after experiencing the bitter
ness of combat, they will be better fitted for
the parts they must take in the postwar world
if they spend the year or two required to COM
plete their university courses at school rather
than striking out for themselves in unfamiliar
activities upon their return to this country.
Captain Murray not only set an example
to his troops in circumstances calling for ex-
ceptional courage, determination and skill. He
is giving all service men at loose ends
after their discharge from military duty, an
example they cannot do better than follow.

AchesOn On A Spot

Maybe General Macarthur has talked too
much. Maybe he has assumed responsibilities
not fully vested in him. He was made Supreme
Commander for the Allies. not Of the Allies
and there is a lot of difference between these
propositions.
Maybe Dean Acheson, acting Secretary of
States in Mr.. Byrnes' absence in London, is
correct in saying that the United States gov
eminent, and not General Macarthur, is for
mulating American policy for occupation and
pacification OF Japan.
But if there is showdown, the odds favor
Macarthur. He is on the ground and apparent
ly has the confidence of the Allied govern
ments which appointed him their steward.
If his tongue has slipped, if he has in fact
made declarations that ought to have been
withheld for the present, especially as to the
reduction OF occupying forces, he is due to
be rebuked. But there is nothing in the stua-
ton which justifies an under-Secretary of
State rapping the Generals knuckles.
That responsibility lodges exclusively
with President Truman or Secretary of State
Byrnes.

-'Unless such credits are forthcoming, it is

will be hungrier this winter than at any time

There is food enough available to prevent
such catastrophe. There are ships to trans.
