(Seattle Times) Benjamin Fine, New York Times education editor, has performed useful journalistic service in pointin out shortcomings in the information program for men in the armed forces. During basic training. G. I's are compelled to listen to uninspiring one-hour lecture once a week on such topics as the importance of being good citizens. “It goes right over their heads,” says Fine. The defense establishment is making a serious mistake there. The basic training period offers op- portunity for intelligent instruction on the present grave world situation, the part the United States must take in it to preserve free institutions, and the obligations of the individual American in ci il or mili- tary life.

Military experts pronounced this an amaz- ing job While Marshall was an unobtru- | ive 36-year-old Captain with Per- shing, MacArthur was a spectacu- ular 37-year-old Brigadier General with the Rainbow Division. After the war, MacArthur kept in the limelight, first as Commander of West Point, later as a Br dier Géheral in the Philippines, then as chief of staff.

It was not until 1938, after MacArthur had been trans- ferred to the Philippines more or less permanently, that Roosevelt recognized Marshall’s ability and promoted him to be chief of staif. Aussie Friend of USA Sir Keith Murdoch, who owns most of the newspapers in Australia and is a potent friend of the Uni- ted States, visited Washington the other day on one of his annual trips | between London and “down under.” I confess to some prejudice regard- ing Sir Keith because he gave me one of my first newspaper jobs, on the Melbourne Herald, when I was working in Australia in 1923. At any rate, Sir Keith's observa- tions on the U. S. A, are worth noting. He found us: 1. The best- informed nation in the world; and 2. The nation with the freest dis- cussion of problems. He was impressed with the way we brought things out in the open, hid nothing, pulled no punches.
