The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-If the General Staff in Washington read the thousands of letters which pour in on congressman and this columnist from G. I. Joes everywhere, un- doubtedly a broad-gauged man like Gen. Eisenhower would move to rectify some of the things which are destroying morale in the Army.
 The GI. of course doesn't write to Gen. Eisenhower or the War Department, first because he fig ures his letter wouldn't be read, and second, if it was read, he would get into trouble. However, here is some recommended reading for the General Staff in the Pen tagon Building-a cross-section of letters recently received by this columnist. The note of discourage ment, illustration and bitterness is not unusual Unfortunately, it runs through practically all the letters, and indicates that something vii tally wrong at the bottom must be cleaned up before building a large new peacetime military struc- ture.
 An Air Force officer in the Pacific sent this columnist an Air Medal ribbon with one Oak Leaf Cluster. With it he enclosed a newspaper clipping telling how Gen. Barney Giles had awarded Air Medals to It. Gen. Robert c. Richardson, Jr., and Maj. Gen. Clark L. Ruffner for numerous long-distance flights over water under extremely hazardous weather conditions"
 The officers letter read: Here is an article about the awarding of an air medal to one old school tic by another. Just another case of the W.P.PA. taking care of it's own. WP.PA. means West Point Protective Association"
 Enclosed you will also find a couple of Air Medals I won while playing tag with some Jap flax over the fleet some time back. You should see the back end of Gen. Richardson's plane! Ice box, hunks, plush seats and all the rest of the best. Tough life he had sleeping over those long dangerous hours of 'over-water flying"
 A Lieutenant Colonel who for warded the above letter wrote T was associated with this officer for year, two thirds of that being spent on Two Jima. His feel ings represent the general opinion of practically all Reserve officers who were in battle. Any more than-ordinary action of West Point graduate called for unusual attention and awards. My pride in being a Reserve officer on active duty prior to Pearl Harbor took q number of eye-opening jolts on Two and I expect to resign my commission as a lieutenant colonel six months after my terminal leave expires

! Jews in a world where redemption
is needed. for all human beings.
You and I, who live in the state
of Florida, are an integral part OF
Jewry and humanity. We must di-
rect our thought and action to
understand our uniqueness as Jews
and Americans, as people among
people, to understand what it means
to be a Jew and to believe in the
Torah. Let US intensity our studies,
not only to spread it among our
children, but also to educate the
adult.
It is the weapon that will be
powerful enough to leave at least
a sense of satisfaction to have
tackled the problem and to have
tried to find a solution. AS we
open the Book of Life for the COM
ing New Year, may we, the Jewry
of the South, increase our sense of
responsibility towards our religion
and our people. May the sound OF
the Shofar, the echo of the agoniz-
ing cry of sacrificial readiness, stir
our imaginations and may the mes
senger of good tidings usher in a

A Message to JewT'y

wonder future generations, as &c
the meaning of our civilization. We
close the Jewish year with hope and
aspirations. We pray that states
men and leaders of the world do moi
again cast away the opportunity
of peace.
Jewry of America lives in compare
tive freedom from anti-Semitism and
bigoty. we still enjoy the safeguard
ing of our constitution. 1t is a healthy
sign of vigorous living to be in
volved in problems; and we shall
be ever SO ready to meet them.
We study and talk about our po-
sition as Jews in the world, and
in America. Many of us feel anxi-
ETY. and worry about the future OF
our people. However, we must
recognize that the future of our
people depends greatly on the flu
ture of the world. It is open for
debate. whether the Jewish problem
is a world problem. or the world
problem is a Jewish problem. AS
we conclude an old year, we must
not only pray for ourselves. but
we must pray also for the world.
We must not only worry about our
own future. we also must worry
about the future of the world. If
we can arouse a sense of respon-
sibility among our fellowmen, then
this responsibility will create a
unique condition of a real world
and with it alone. can
problems of world importance justly
be solved.
We have time to mediate. as we
hear the chanting OF our CantorS

Surveying the atomic age ana

achieving freedom from want.
through mans ingenuity IN at

sciences No reputable pro-
phet would say today that there
is nothing more to invent or to
discover in science. War has de-
stroyed all such theories and
fantasy"
peace now depends upon
the recognition by all nations
Of their Individual responsibility
to prevent war. They must fos-
ter the will to peace The
vital role science can play in
peace or war for the future calls
for careful consideration of its
potential influences upon the
territorial, economic, social and
political problems that nations
seek to solve. If there is to be
world security, the voice of
science should be heard in the
halls where the architects of
peace design our future"
General Sarnoff's report was
compiled after he had been as
signed as special consultant on
communications to General Els
enhower. He was largely res
ponsible for D-DaY communica-
lions arrangements which made
instantaneous news coverage pos
sible with the reopening of com

that hour on, Sarnoff stayed at

nights directing rescue ships and
recording the anxiously awaited
names of FOG survivors. An al
armed nation suddenly became
aware of his work when Presi-

wireless station in the country
during the 72-hour emergency.
The nation has listened to
Sarnoff since that time. In dis

Out of the intensified research
made necessary by war will
come many new inventions and
discoveries. Such devices as poe

ready in use was the electronic
microscope, with which the in

time photographed.
From a poor immigrant boy.
Sarnoff has risen to a position Of
pre-eminence in American life.
Where he was first a radio mag

into television. into science. into
