The Government required of
I General McArthur a military op-J
eration that reminds me of a quar-
i rel betw’een sweethearts in Rot-'
terdam, Holland. One night in i
Rotterdam I heard a noise like a
great club striking a tree. But let’s
i go back a bit: apparently a young
man was displeased with his girl
She lived in a big flat, with a long
coridor on the street. Again and
again the girl came to the door and
the young man dashed toward her,
but she retreated within the cor
ridor. Again and again she came
forth; and again and again the
young man’s spurt was too slow,
for he had to stop at the entrance
Finally, as an old Comic used to
say, “too much of a thing was
J enough", so the enraged and ag
grieved young man crossed the
threshold. I don't know how far
he went, but within a very few
minutes the young lady's daddy
brought him out and struck him on
the head with a “bUly." (Daddy
was a policeman) and that was the
noise I heard. Now, are we going
to crack those fellows on the head;
1 or play hide and seek, forever?
It amazes me to read that Mr.
Truman and General Marshall and'
Mr. Acheson fear that we may!
arouse the Russians by following
cur men in Korea. What does Rus-j

sending to Europe—all avowedly;

day about the awful slaughter of
Chinese by our men, but we say
nothing about our losses. So much
has been said about the wrecking
of Chinese planes by our planes
that I was quite shocked when the
War Department issued a state
ment recently showing that our
losses in planes were much greater
than the losses suffered by the
Chinese.
The more I hear about the Wash
ington handling of affairs the
more “blunderful” it seems. And
just imagine, if you can, how it
would be, if we had a larger
measure of Socialism; and if all
