Henry Is Persistent
(The Denver POSt)

Henry Wallaces game of footie with the Communists is getting intimate all the time The former secre tary of commerce, although confronted by Bernard Baruch with the of his veWs bndly insists that the United States is responsible for the atomic arma mentS which he says is under way
 For the present mpaSSe atomic control discussions Wallace fatly planes his nation. There is nothing in his argument it is identical with that expressed by Communists and their fellow travellers throughout the world.
 He points to 'school of military thinking which advocates preventive war on Russia" The implica- tion is that this view, which he rightly calls immoral and stupd,' is widely shared in this country-a wild distortion It is charge frequently made by left wing opponents of U. S. defensive policy who apparently would like to see this nation dsarmed.
 He calls the question of security council veto on atomic energy matters completely rrelevant-but he fails to why if it is indeed irrelevant the Rus sans insistent upon its retention
 He argues that the United States must agree to def mite schedule for destroying it's atomic bomb stocks and that failure to do is the major impeachment to interna tonal agreement But the fact is that the U S. plan clearly envisages such schedule.
 He ayers that, in "some respects" the Russian plan for atomic energy control goes further than our own plan and is in agreement with the basic principles of our plan This is completely false The Russian plan fundamentally rests on simple agreement to outlaw atomic Warfare-without embracing an effective sys tenn of controls and penalties
 But strangest of all IS the psychology of man who having been shown his error he by Bernard Ba- ruchpersists in spreading poisonous perversions of fact damaging to his nations interests When he wrote these things in innocence, they could be called error when he repeats them they become lies.

these instructions - "Dispers evade the Japanese, and organi7
 guerrilla bands"
 Each unit contained as a nu cleus a few specialists with train ing in communications, engineer ing and the like" the Britannic Year Book article continued. "Th largest group numbered about fiji teen"
 ] The men had little time for de tailed instructions. They all kpev 1 that their primary mission WaSt obtain intelligence of the enemy movements and their secondar, mission was to harass the enemy until concerted action would bt possible with an American inva. sion of the islands.
 The officers assigned to the mis- sion left Bataan short time be- fore the Japanese came, the Year Book says. They made their way across Manila Bay, to the east and northeast of Luzon. As the enemy consolidated its position by taking over small towns and villages, the American officers spread out "as thinly as possible" to avoid cap- ! ture.
 At this point practically the en- tire native population was poten- tial guerrilla material, Lewis states. The FilipinOs were organ ized almost automatically. As na- tive units broke up, under Japan csc orders, the soldiers hid their | arms and ammunition, went home to don civilian clothes, and wait. With the organization of guerril- la bands, the soldiers retrieved their arms and went back to fight again. Because of this there was little shortage of ammunition, ac- cording to the Year Book.
 Guerrilla units sprang up spon- taneously in this manner through out the island. But, in the begin ming, their work was uncoordin- e d. Intercommunication was their biggest problem. About the only radio equipment available consisted of small receiving sets in native huts. There were almost no dry batteries and vacuum tubes for theee sets. Storage batteries were obtained by salvage or steal ing from vehicles, the article says. American officers, number n g about three to every 5000 Fili- pinos, relied on native messen- gers.
 Radio contact between MacAr- thurs headquarters and guerrilla units on the islands of Panay and Mindanao was first established late in 1922, Lewis wrote. Then supplies began to come in by sub marine. Toward the end of 1943 contact party, which had come to Mindanao by submarine, pro- ceeded by sailboat to Samar and then on to Luzon, where at ar rived in April 1944. From that date forward all the major guer- rilla clements were linked by ra- dio and submarine.
 The movements of the Japanese were watched and reported with out delay. If a Japanese unit moved from Luzon to Buna, Americans knew about it almost before the movement was com pleted. The result was that U. s. l I
