heard on battle fronts troop transports hospital and In general submarines ships hospitals in tije U S The In spite of being a professional soldier he despises war and like any ordinary soul is appalled by the waste and tragedy of it He wants to win it and get home just badly as anybody else as When the general is in the field he lives In a truck that used to be a machine shop They have fixed it up nicely for him with a bed a desk cabinets and rugs His orderly is an obliging sergeant who is a native of Kcuador Some of bis officers sleep in foxholes but the general sleeps in his while truck One night however I was with his division it sot too hot even for him Fragments from shells bursting nearby started hitting the top of the truck so he got out The general has a small mess In a tent separate from the rest bof the division staff This ecause he has a good many viand since they siting generals eat talk bnsiness while they they must have some privacy Is Usually he stays at his desk dua tour ring the morning and makes of regimental and battalion command posts during the afternoon Usually he goes to the front in an unarmed jeep with another Jeep a mright behind him carrying achine gunner and rifleman on the His drivers say alert for snipers when they start out: “Hold on for the general doesh't spare the horses when he's trave- ling” He carries a portable telephone in wants his jeep and if he suddenly to talk with any of his units he just stops along the road and plugs Into one of the wires that are lying on the ground General Eddy especially likes to show up in places where his soldiers He wouldn't expect to see him knows that it helps the soldiers’ spirits to see their commanding general right up at the front where it front is hot So he walks around with his long stride never ducking or appearing to be concerned at all One day I rode around with him At one coon one of his tours mmand post we were sitting on the maps grass uhder a tree looking with a group of officers around us Our own artillery was banging nearby but nothing was conning our Then like a flash of lightning way here came a shell just over our heads so low it went right through the treetops it seemed It didn't whine it swished Everybody Including full colonels flopped over and began grabbing grass The shell exploded in the next orchard He General Eddy didn’t move just said: “Why that was one of our shells” And since I had known General Eddy for quite a While I was bold enough to say: “General if that was one of ours all I can say is that this is a hell of a way to run a war We’re fighshell ting toward the north and was going due south” The general just laughed the at that service ODDS AND ENDS — Betty Hutton lor that Texas began campaigning Guinan rola three yearn ago

groups fofce The general also likes to get up at four o’clock in the morning once in a while and go poking around mess into message centers and halls giving the boys a start It was one of these night meanderings that produced his favorite war story It was In Africs They were a It was raining cats new bivouac and dogs and the ground was in mud The tent pegs wouldn't stay in and the pup tents kept coming down Everybody was wet and So miserable late at night the general started out on foot around the area just because he felt so sorry for all the kids out there As he walked he passed a soldier trying to redrive the stake that held down the front of his pup tent The soldier was using his steel helmet as a hammer and he was having a bad time of it Every now and then he would miss the stake with the helmet and would squash mud ail over himself He was cussing and fuming The general was using his flashlight and when the soldier saw the light he called out: “Hey Bud come and hold that light for me will you?’’ So General Eddy obediently squatted down and held the light while the soldier pounded and spattered mud and they finally got the peg driven Then as they got up the general said: "Soldier what’s your name?” The startled soldier gasped leaned forward and looked closely then blurted out: "Goddelmighty ” Peninsula During the Cherbourg I spent nine daya with campaign Ninth Infantry division — the vision that cut the peninsula and one of the three that overwhelmed the great port of Cherbourg x The Cherbourg is old campaign stuff by now and you are no longer particularly interested in It But the Ninth division has been in this war for a long time and will be in So I it fbr a long time to come would like to tell you some things about it The Ninth Is one of onr beat divisions It landed in Africa and it fought through Tunisia and Sicily Then it went to England last faU and trained all winter for the invasion of France It was one of the American divisions in the Invasion that had previous battle experience The Ninth did something in this that we haven’t always campaign done in the past It kept tenaciously on the enemy’s neck When the Germans would withdraw a little the Ninth was right on top of them It never gave them a chance to assemble or get their balance The Ninth moved so fast it got to befunny I was based at the division command and we post struck our tents and moved forward six times in seven days That works the daylight out of the boys who take down and put up the tents I overheard one of the boys saying: "I’d rather be with Ringling the Brothers” ReleaKd by Western Newspaper Union DEWEY WILL ’BRIEF’ PROBLEMS BEFORE ACTING CHICAGO — Republican nominee Tom Dewey’s method of handling a problem is first to have it “briefed” He designates one of his men to analyze both sides thoroughly to set these down in writing saying “On the one hand there Is this factor" and "On the other hand there is this” he takes this evidence disthen cusses it with his councilors makes his decision EMOTIONALISM RULED people may well like to guided in their lives by emotionalism and wholly human considerations which may not be right but for their leadership to assume such a principle would plunge all hope and faith for the future and tip even justice itself into the cauldron of (Like the Hiphilosophical fires tler leadership of unreasoned torch bearing and hatreds) I guess this is what interests me most in the new young leadership which is taking over the Republican opposition because the Willkie leadership 'popuprejularly failed Perhaps I am diced because for nearly 14 years I have seen a government operate without “briefing” without judicial choices coolly arrived at and I think this is why its economic solutions

in ideologies the sense that an administrator assigns work to them and makes the final conclusion from their work He the does not try to dominate thoughts of his associates or press them to his viewpoint This is evident in the fact that no one who ever worked for him has resigned (a remarkable record) Few men like work as he does - remained behind after this convention to shake 3000 hands the first night and to thresh out campaign details with the hundreds of leaders assembled here He did not choose an outlying hotel but remained at convention headquarters He likes Bncker who did much
