Donohue Says Nation
Must Turn 10 God

Our country's diplomats and
military have failed, so the Nation
must count on God, Commissioner
F. Joseph Donohue declared yes
terday.
The city head made this OBJ
servation at the 17th annual COM
memoration by patriotic groups
of the District dead of the two
World Wars.
At the District War Memorial
near the Tidal Basin, Mr.. Donohue
declared:
"Our diplomacy apparently has
failed. Our military is wholly in
capable of facing an attack if it
should come. With the military
and diplomacy having failed in
their mission, our hope is to turn
to God Almighty for protection to
gain the victory for which our
honored dead have thus far died
in vain"
The Commissioner suggested
that Congress and the steel strike
conferees might have done well to
attend the memorial services.
Perhaps in the presence of
those who died for their country,
they might be willing to make a
minimum of sacrifice" he said.
A score or more of wreaths were
laid by the patriotic groups at the
foot of a white cross garlanded by
1,500 red poppies representing the
city's war dead. The Marine Band
provided music for the ceremony,
which was in memory Of the late
Frank B. Noyes, who was president
of The Star and founder Of the
1881 Memorial Commission.

'Corregidor's Radio Operator
Would Go Through 1t Again
His Dramatic Story
Of isles Fall Stirred
Nation 10 Years AGO
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, May 5.-Ten years
ago Corpl. Irving Strobing tapped
out the last radio message from
doomed Corregidor.
His poignant, unofficial account
of the descent to defeat stirred
the Nation and even moved a Sig
nal Corps colonel in the War De-
partment to tears.
Corpl. Strobing has been
through a lot since 1912. He was
a prisoner of the Japanese for 40
months. dropping from 140 pounds
to 90. After liberation and visit
home in Brooklyn he re-enlisted
in 1916. He was about to sign up
for another Army hitch in 1949
when it was discovered he had
tuberculosis. After months in hos
pitals he was discharged for a
long convalescence. He still has
to take it easy but is in school and
working toward an electrical engi-
neering degree.
What does he think about his
experiences?
II don't regret anything that
happened" says the quiet. soft
spoken 32-year-old Strobing. II
would do it all over again."
Message Patchy.
His final message from Corregi-
dor in Manila Bay was part Of
14-hour fragmentary description
of the raging, one-sided battle he
sent out from a tunnel on the
island between official bulletins.
The dots and dashes squealed
into Honolulu:
I'VE are waiting for God only
knows what lots of heavy
fighting going on. ). Shells were
dropping all night faster than
hell. Damage terrific. Too much
for guys to take. They are
piling dead and wounded in our
tunnel. :"
His account was patchy, some
times profane. Sometimes it wan
dered in a nostalgia vein.
"How about a chocolate soda?"
came from the key of the lad who
hadn't had such a delicacy for
weeks and wouldn't have again
for years.
At last just before the first Jap
anese tank rolled up to the tunnel
entrance he bent over his key
again. He told his name and asked
that a personal message be gotten
through to his mother and family
in Brooklyn.
God bless them ALL" he said.
"Hope they will be there when I
come home"
That was all. Corregidor was
silent. The radio operator taking
the message in Honolulu wept.
Will Never Forget.
II will never forget the day
after we quit" Strobing said to-
day. Gen. Jonathan Wainwright
walked with his cane down be-
tween the two rows of surrendered
men to the dock to go to Manila
to sign the surrender. He was
crying and SO out of 100 of us
were, too"
Then began for Strobing exactly
1915 days as prisoner of war in
the Philippines and in Japan. His
treatment was. good at first butt

battle went against Nippon.

REV. LINK SAYS

A campaign to enlist the entire

Stock Island dog track has been
unanimously approved by con-
gregation members, the Rev. Har-
old H. Link. pastor, said today.
Link gave a fiery address OPP
posing the track at special meet
ing of the Key West Ministerial
association yesterday morning held
at the Old Stone Methodist Church.
He said in part:
''In order for dog track gam.
bling to be right, it must harmon
ize with God. If it is right then it
has fellowship with God. If God
diSfellowships it. it is wrong. If it
is wrong, that settles the whole
question with me. the whole of it.
II say that today the dog track
interests are mainly in the hands
of a very few monetary corpor-
atoms. They have the entire finan-
cial resources of the whole system,
resources that 60 beyond the funds

business which puts a thousand to
one in every issue. You know this
to be true.
Rev. Link continued:
'"ThiS is what demoralizeS leg

paddock on the lips of the politician
and makes him turn pale at this
threat, IF you vote against OIL
make a stand against dog track
racing you need never run for an
office again while you live and
he knows it is true"
II say it is framing a mischief by
law. The principle is irrevocable,
irreversible, that those who share
