martialed here shortly after
the disaster and found guilty
Of failing TO zig-zag but not
guilty Of failing to ordert 'aban-

of expert testimony by Ameri-
can sub experts and the jap
anese commander who sank the
ship that zig-zagging would
have made no difference in the
outcome and other testimony
that all communications on the
ship were knocked out by the
torpedo explosions.
Sees Navy Blame
Mr.. Newcomb's book indicates
strongly that the Navy erred
in blaming Capt. McVay for
negligence and in picking foul
relatively minor officers to
blame for failing to notice the
Indianapolis was missing.
In point Of fact. the standard
operating procedure in the Pa
cific had a large administrative
hole in it. There were set di-
receives for every command
about departing and arriving
ships but none for nonarriving
combatant ships.

CThe book is Abandon

World News Editor Richard F..
Newcomb of New York; Henry
Holt & Co. $685.
Extensively Researched
Mr.. Newcomb spent years re-
searching the story OF the In
dianapolis and its crew. Of
whom more than 800 persisted
in the July 80, 1945, torpedoing
between Leyte and Guam. The
indianapolis was sunk just
after midnight and no one in
the Pacific Ocean missed the
vessel through an incredible
series Of circumstances. The
sinking was discovered by luck
when a Navy patrol plane saw
some survivors four days later,
floating in a vast oil slick.
The four officers censured
by the Navy were:
Commodore N. c. Gillette of
Chicago, acting commander of
the Philippine Sea Frontier on
Leyte at the time; Capt. A. M.
Granum of Milwaukee. opera
tons officer of the Leyte COM
mand; Comdr. Jules C. Sancho,
acting port director of Taclo-
g ban, Leyte, and 1t. Stuart B.
Gibson of Richmond. operations
officer under the port director.
These men received letters
Of reprimand or admonition for
failure to send rescue ships
looking for the overdue In
dianapolis. Mr.. Newcomb's ac-
count Of the worst tragedy in
American naval history hints
strongly the men we're made
scapegoatS when the system un-
der which they functioned was
the real culprit.
Mr.. Newcomb discloses that
Mr.. Forrestal wrote the four
and the letters have not been
made public until now-that
the disciplinary action was
more severe than was war
ranted and was therefore with
drawn.

WORDS, WIT

BY WILLIAM MORRIS


Perhaps you can help to

Of New York City. II mem
toned in a joking way that a

on my left had cut me TO the
quick II just happened that
! am known for my slow and
easy-going ways. so one OF the
other guests Immediately re-
marked that no one ever no.
ticed me being quick about

"One thing led 10 another

Historically. both the noun

adverb forms come from the
same root. the Anglo-Saxon
"cwlcu." meaning alive or liv-
ing. Thus the phrase "the
quick and the dead" from the
King James Bible. by the way
merely means the living and
the dead. During the Middle
Ages farmers customarily re-

At that time l had paid no
attention to the inscription on
the bronze plaque affixed to
the gun. 1t read: "this gun
was emplaced at the sugges'
ton of Morris S. Simpson, an
original settler of LaWton
and a staunch friend of the
Army"
A little inquiry in Lawton
established that l had discoV-
cred a forgotten Jewish pio-
neer of the Southwest. Not
until after my own research
was completed did 1 learn
that Bernard Postal and Lilo
mel Koppman, in their book,
A JEWISH TOURISTS
GUIDE TO THE UNITED
STATES, had anticipated me;
still, so little is known about
Simpson that a re-telling of
the story of the Simpson
Torah and Simpson Gun is
still warranted.
Simpson and his brother
in-law, Morris Iralson, ar
rived in Lawton on Aug. 3,
1901, three days before the
opening by lottery of the
100000 KioWa Comanche
Indian reservation to white
settlers. He was barely 20

when he came to the United
States from Latvia in 1883,
settling in Marshall, Texas.
Later he lived in Dallas.
From there he and Iralson
drove a covered wagon load
ed with drygoods and house
furnishings to the present
site of LaWton where they
opened one of the towns first
stores in a tent.
BEFORE LONG this estab-
lishment grew into one of the
largest stores in the entire
Southwest. It's corporate
name was the LaWton Mer-
camille Company but every
one called it Simpsons" Be
fore long Simpsons house
and store became the head
quarters for the young ana
homesick Fort Sill officers
who found the Simpsons
friendly and sympathetic
hosts. Long before any one
thought of the National Jew
ish Welfare Board or USO,
the Simpsons maintained
what was tantamount to the
first servicemen's recreation
center in Oklahoma.

artillery piece, captured dur

older Torah Scroll, both Of
which I found at the Army's
Field Artillery School at Fort
Sill, Okla, would seem to
have no reasonable connec-
ton.
Not long after I arrived at
Fort Sill, the casual remark
of a citizen of LaWton, on
whose outskirts the military
base is located, revealed to
me that the Torah Scroll in
use at the Fort Sill chapel
was once the personal prop
erty of a certain Morris d.
Simpson. While exploring the
military reservation, l had
climbed isolated Signal Noun
tain, which overlooks the
fort, and there came upon the
old German cannon which is
emplaced in concrete.

the Jewish traders fair-deal-
ing and aid in time of need
an extraordinary experience.
Quanah Parker, the last chief
of the Comanches, who lived
on the fringe of LaWton for
many years, named one of
his sons for Simpson Gin hon
or of his good white friend"
The Simpsons never had
children of their own so they
raised orphans in their own
home. One such youngster,
born in the Episcopalian
faith, was given a Christian
up-bringing by the ardently
Jewish Simpsons. This
youngster is today Mrs. Bon
ME Stephens, whose husband
is Lawton's postmaster.
While serving as foster-par-
ents to non-Jewish children,
the Simpsons used their
home as a make-Shift syn
agogue for Jews from the
surrounding country. The
Torah that Simpson brought
with him to LaWton in 1901
was said to have been the
first to reach Oklahoma Ter
ritory.
IN 1920 Simps was
stricken with cancer and was
given only a few months to
live. But he survived eleven
years. In 1929 he made the
suggestion that linked him
with the old gun on Signal
Mountain. He found that no
where in LaWton or Fort Sill
was there a memorial to the
men from the fort who had
died in World War 1. Out of
his suggestion came the idea
of imbedding the old German
gun on Signal Mountain.
Ever since, the gun has been
known as the Simpson
Gun" a name given it by
Brig. Gen. Dwight E. Ault-
man, commandant of the
Field Artillery School, when
it was dedicated in 1929.
Simpson died in 1881 and
his funeral was attended by
some of the highest ranking
military officers in the coun-
try, generals who as young
officers had been entertained
in the Simpson home. His
death was described in the
Oklahoma press as the
crumbling of one of Lawton's
foundation stones.
When l learned all this
about Simpson, l also found
that since his death in 1881
nothing had been done to
honor the memory of this
Jewish pioneer who had so
endeared himself to the civil
ian community of LaWton
and the military authorities
at Fort Sill. Out of this dis
covery came my suggestion
of a memorial service on the
9th yahrzeit of Simpson, an
event that was held with full
military honors in the Fort
Sill Post Chapel on Feb. %.
In Simpsons memory a small
fund was collected to be used
for cancer research.
THE MEMORIAL service
took place just when Fort
Sill's needed expansion was
under criticism by many civil
ianS from the surrounding
area. The tribute to the for
gotten Jewish trader and
communal leader served to
emphasize the deep interest
a civilian of earlier years had
for Fort SillS growth and in
a real sense carried an i'm
portant message to many
civilians today.
So you see there really was
a connection between the
Torah and the Gun. The
Simpson Gun on Signal
Mountain looks down on the
Simpson Torah in the Fort
Sill Chapel, the two serving
as twin memorials to a little
