They've slogged through the rice paddies and waded across the snow-drifted fields and they've never got a dime above base pay. Congress had repealed the bonuses that were provided for them during World War II for doing combat duty. The unfairness has been both obvious and out- rageous.

Duncan Rudy Pusich « Virginia Ann Whitehead Virginia B. Kingsbury Lance Swanson Mrs. M. S. Whittier Mrs. James Chard Edward Q. Naghel Saving the Wounded (Washington Post) ! Despite the wholesale increase in the number of casualties since the Korean reversal, it is comforting to know that wounded GIs are receiving the best medi- | cal care in history. One of the most impressive records | of the Korean campaign has been rung up by th as yet largely unsung heroes of the Army Medical | Department. Initially in Korea only about 1 per crm of the men who once received medical at[enlmn subsequenhly died of their wounds. Preliminary esti-” mates in recent weeks indicate that this figure may be raised to slightly over 2 per cent—but even that is a marked improvement over the 4': per cent rate in World War II and the 8 per cent in World War I.} Actually the casualty rate has been cut in half in five years. Probably the principal factor in this remarkable record is the high professional competent of military doctors, a great number of whom have received spec- | ialized training in military and civilian hospitals since | 1947. Doctors are present as far forward as battalion aid stations a short distance behind the actual front; however, company aid men, who often rescue the | wounded men from the field of battle, also are trained to give 1aedical treatment Once in the hands of doctors, the injured man, if his wounds are serious, is evacuated by the ~uerd-i icst means Helicopter have been used extensively to] supplement ambulances in pockets or otherwise in| places where roads are bad; indeed, the Medicall Department is now ordering helicopters as integral items of equipment. After preliminary withdrawal to| an airstrip, the wounded men are carried to general hospitals in Japan. Those whose wounds will not | permit their return to duty within 120 days are. prought by air to hospitals in this country. | Certainly the courage and skill of the medics is a bright spot amid the grimness of war. It is heart-| ening commentary that out of the brutality of battle | should come continual advances in medical techniques | that emphasize the value of human life. As their news pictures appear to us, Chinese Communists look alike—and that's an awful | thing to say about either of them. any two One of the marvels of this age is achieving greater ~—(W/all Street Journal). horsepower with fewer ho! the Washinglon Hery-Go-Round | leaf ciover,” the 1‘ vigorously.
