peated declarations Of theological
war upon "the whole Of the 'bourge-

The speech indicates the Presi-
dents confidence in American mill
tary strength, and that also will be
deduced abroad. No leader Of q state
afraid Of being successfully attacked
or having areas under that states
protection successfully attacked,
would throw down such q challenge.
That Is all to the good, for the So
viets are adept at exploiting weak
ness, but cautious at challenging
strength with anything stronger
than propaganda and intrigue.
Lacks Precise Definitions.
Yet the speech slips from under
grasp Of its full implications for
lack of precise definitions. The
President declares, I'VE have worked
steadily for the limitation and con-
troll of all armamepts," but fails to
clarity principles under which such
limitation or control might be pos
sible of success.

with more confidence than the rec
ord justifies. We have botched az
fairs In China and Greece; have
not been very fortnight about
France; and the particular forms
our aY1ti.colonialism has taken NAV
well turn out to be elf-subversive.
Parts Of the speech, also, make us
wish the President had read, before
he wrote it, Kipling's Recessional,
warning against boastings Of power.

apparently as the heir to dissolv-

MAYBE YOU'VE HEARD of this

MAYBE YOU'VE HEARD OF this
40 old wardog Gen. Jake Sears.
You must have. He's been cited
for bravery a dozen times. Consid-
cred one of the finest officers in
the army, knows all the answers,
as far as strategy is concerned.
Smart. A hero.
Well, maybe he was a hero. I sup
pose any soldier is hero who
knocks the devil out of the enemy,
no matter how he does it. That's
war. Still somehow I'd always had
a notion that hero was one who
braved odds. Queer the ideas kids
get. Queer the way they stick with
a chap as he grows older. At any
rate, I was with Old General Jake's
outfit at Lameraux. Remember
Lameraux? Sure, General Jake got
his biggest medal for what hap
pened at I.ameraux.
Well, sir, the day before the
Boche moved in-of course we
didn't know it was the day be-
fore until later - up comes
messenger from headquarters
with instructions for General
Jake to hold Lameraux as long
as he could. mean, headquar-
tiers knew General Jake's tao
tics, and they didn't want him
walking out without some show
of resistance.
General Jake smiled thinly to
himself and tore the orders into
little pieces and threw the pieces
away. And then the next day the
Germans moved in. We had ample
warning. Everything was in readi-
ness for a hasty and efficient re-
treat. Of course, the smart thing to
do was blow up the bridge, which
offered the only means of approach,
before quitting the village, there
by impeding the Germans no end.
Everyone expected orders to that
effect, but General Jake had a sly
look in his eyes. He was thinking
of those orders from headquarters,
I guess, and thinking what folks
might say if he retreated as he
planned.
So instead of ordering the bridge
blown up, he issued some hurried
instructions. Then he started the
retreat. Two miles up the road he
circled the outfit and headed back
through some woods. We waited at
the edge of the woods for an hour,
watching the Germans cross the
bridge into the village. Then Gen
eral Jake sent a messenger scam
pering off to the field station he
had established.
Ten minutes later there was a
terrific explosion. The bridge flew
into the air like kindling wood. The
Germans who were on the Lamer-
aux side stared in amazement, but
their amazement gave way to con-
Germ, for just then General Jake's
boys came swarming out of the
woods.
What followed was pretty aw-
full even for q war. Our men
