Tommy Bryne, a hard luck guy
from way back, found Number 13
the charm to ending Clevelands
all-winning rush toward tn C
American League pennant.
The ex-Yankee, Shunted to the
last place St. Louis Browns in
mid-June, made his 18th start of
the season yesterday. 1t conceded
with q 13-game Cleveland win
string. The result was tough on
the Indians, whose lead was re-
duced to 112 games by a 40 loss.
No Cleveland club ever won
more than 13 in row. The 1912
team got that far in May before
Boston dumped them. The current
tribe tied that mark Wednesday
night.
Bryne took complete charge Of
ending the streak by driving home
all four runs off loser Mike Garcia
before he left the game with a sore
back in the eighth. Du1nc Pillette
finished the shutout job on Clevc-
land which hadn't lost since Aug.
l.
The 5-3 New York victory at
Washington slashcd a full game
off the Indians lead. Both of the
other first division clubs lost
Boston to Philadelphia, 1912 and
Chicago to Detroit 2-1.
There were faint STRINGS of
hope for a belated race in the
National after New York knocked
off Brooklyn, 2-1, for a series
sweep and six-game winning
streak. The Dodgers lead, however,
still measured 93a games with 43
to play.
St. Louis broke loose with six
runs in the seventh to trim Pitts
burgh, SO, and Chicago exploded
four in the ninth to whip Cincinn-
att, 8-4, in the only night game in
the majors. Boston and Philadel-
phia we're not scheduled.
Byrne's performance against
Cleveland was super job. Always
plagued by wildness, he handed
out only four walks. Until he left
in the eighth he allowed only two
hits, One of the hits was double
by Larry Dolby who pulled a mus
Gle in his left leg on the play.
1t was Bryne's two-run single
with the bases full in the second
inning, that opened the scoring.
Bryne's ground out drove home
another in the fourth and his
Single in the sixth added the final
run.
The Yanks, collecting big divi-
dend on Brynes job, also received
their first win contribution from
Art Shallock. Until he wilted after
seven innings. he gave only ono
run. Joe Ostrowski yielded two
i'm his two-inning relief job. Gene
Weddings 18th homer led the
attack on loser Dick Starr and two
others.
Philadelphia climbed all over
the Red Sox pitchers for ID hits.
Clyde Vollmer gave Boston its
only runs off Bobby Shantz with
a two-run homer, his 21st. Ray
Scarborough was the loser.
Dizzy Trout was the big noise
in the Tigers triumph over the
White sox. He gave up only six
hits and beat Joe Dobson with his
fifth-inning home run.
Sal Maglie threw a four-hitter
at the Dodgers for his 17th win.
It took a wild pitch by Don New
combe with two out in the seventh
to give the giants the run that
proved decisive. Billy Cox's homer
gave the Dodgers their only run
Gerry Staley. coming back on
relief after losing Wednesday
night, picked up his 14th win for
the cards at the expense of Murry
Dickson. Stan Musial's 9th homer

Did We Unhorse the Cavalry Too Soon?

Hit-and-run raids by Chinese
Red cavalry in Korea have re-
vived interest in that now de-
funct but once most spectacular
arm of Americas own military.
Some officers think United
Nations forces could use horses
to advantage in the rough ter
rain of Korea-or in other parts
of Asia if a major war should
be fought there.
Sentimental attachment to
the horse cavalry still is quite
strong in the United States
Army. When the famous 1st
Cavalry Division was converted
to an infantry outfit it kept
it's cavalry name for traditions
sake.
The Chinese Reds used a
tactic which was employed
against the Chinese more than
TOO years ago by one of the
great military leaders Of all
time.

Maj. William F. Cochrane,
jr., with the 7th Cavalry Regi-
ment, now fighting as infantry
in Korea, said that the Chinese
could use cavalry units well
there because of the nature of
the land.

Cochrane was quoted in a front

transport infantrymen and sup

camels as pack animals.

but obligated the signatory ma
tions to work together and remain
on the alert for any possible
aggression in any part of the New
World or the surrounding oceans.
Meantime there was not only an
agreement but a working policy
for the standardization of arms
among the 81 nations. another
program of hemisphere military
collaboration which had already
been put into effect before a
similar project was even ,seri-
ously discussed with the govern
ments of Great Britain and other
European countries.
Long-Standins Cooperation
But even before any of these
measures had been agreed upon.
we had, at the invitation, as we'll
as at the expense of the various
governments, maintained air,
ground and naval missions in
practically every one of the coun-
tries next door to assist in the
instruction and training of their
officers and men.
Ever since World War I, there
had been the closest cooperation
between our naval forces and
those of Brazil, Peru and the
larger republics. In the 1920s
Rear Admiral William o. Spears,
retired, then captain, set up and
directed the Peruvian Naval
Academy, and mapped the course
of training which made this in
stitution one of the finest in the
hemisphere. United States
Brazilian naval corporation is a
tradition. United States influ-
ence on Chile's Navy dates back
more than half a century. The
first admiral of the Chilean Navy
and the founder of the Naval
Academy at Valparaiso was
Charles Wooster, a native Of
Massachusetts,. The actual COLI
laboration between Argentine and
United States Naval officials is of
more recent origin. But even
during World War II, when the
Argentine government theoreti-
cally remained neutral, United
States naval mission was on duty
with the Argentine fleet.

f1cials accepted his claim that II

Petroleum always has been the
mystery factor in lend-lease and
the reason is hard to find. Per-
haps it is the simple one that oil
was a separate agency and even
though it was pulled within the
lend-lease orbit it never came
fully under its control. In any
case, petroleum has been the elu-
sive element in all the reports.
The presidential reports refer to
it generally in dollar values. with
out stating the price per gallon.
Occasionally they give petroleum
products tonnage. but do not tie
it up with the precious chemicals
which perform the miracle OF
making ordinary gasoline into
supergasoline. Stettinius, in his
book on lend-lease, simply gives
dollars for oil. The most promis-
ing source, at first glance, is the
War Departments huge book on
lend-lease. But it has no oil al
all.
It has long been clear that there
was a gap in the data on Russian
strength in fuel. She had practi-
cally no chemicals for making
high-test gasoline and she got onl.
2 million tons of petroleum prod
'ucts from us, on the books. Yet
she fought a war in which she
used two-thirds as many Ameri-
donated motor vehicles Gin
addition to her own as Gen
Eisenhower had in the ETO. on
what seemed to be third of the
fuel power.
Chemical the Key
The key to the mystery was II
bromine, a costly chemical which
the Russians could not turn out II
quantity and which we gave tt
them on such a scale that they hae
enough of it, with its combining
element tetraethyl lead, to make
about II million tons of high-pow.
er gasoline.
Bromine was in the presidential
reports, but anonymously. simply
under Chemicals" The part il
has played and may yet play wa.
made apparent only incidental,
in an article in the December 81
1850, issue of the Oil and Ga:
Journal entitled "Is Petroleum &
Soviet Weakness?" There for the
first time a grand total for bromint
and a break down of deliveries by
years is given-and unhappily tht

high-test gasoline, we find that
Russia must have finished the war
with sufficiently large surplus in
chemicals to make a handsome
and inexpensive start on another
war. as far as gasoline is con-
cerned.
And bromine was only a frac-
ton Of what we did in the least
heralded part of our aid to Russia.
We presented her with the fruits
of half a century of progress in
technology. not only giving rare
and costly chemicals and proc
esses, but transporting whole fac
tories and scores Of technicians
to make sure that nothing was
misunderstood. The overall OBJ
ject was commendable in the sense
that we were trying to fit Russia
out to wear Germany down until
we could come in for the kill.
However, it is hard to look at
the less-heralded phases of lend
lease without getting a creepy
feeling that we were from the
start being overreached on the
highest levels in truly diabolical
fashion.
Well Organized Scheme
It is only when one studies the
details of lend-lease that it be-
comes clear that the Russians had
thoroughly organized their fraud
from the very beginning and that
they carried it through with the
utmost cunning. The guiding
brain in this bizarre business seems
to have been Alexandra Roto-
schalk, trained in metallurgy and
chemistry at the Massachusetts
institute of Technology. His OPP
posite number on the American
side was British-born, American
lied citizen, a former professor
at NIT, who had been called in
as a consultant on metallurgical
problems for lend-lease. OF this
professors loyalty and competence
there is no question. He had
no responsibility for the highest
policy decisions as to the extent
to which Russian industry should
be set up for the years ahead.
His business was to indicate the
best sources and the best uses
for various resources needed by
Russia within the framework Of
the broad policy. s
Rotoschalk, on the other hand,
was working on a larger plan.
which had the winning of the
war as only first step. Toward
that end he sought the largest
possible collection Of applicable
American assets, and he had lists
to back up his demands. The
Americans, totally in the dark
about Russia's real needs and pur-
posely kept that way. worked for
four years under those unequal
conditions.
AS a concession to American
public opinion Stain signed a
promise to pay a billion dollars
for his supplies. That was soon
waived. and thereafter the trucu-
lence of the Russians increased.
Part of the Russian strategy seems
to have been to pour in large or
ders SO rapidly that they could
not possibly be analyzed for their
long-range significance. Any Off
cial who got too technical exposed
himself to the risk of being
charged with dilatoriness. The
idea was to act now and think
later, If at all.
