PATTON On June 10, Gen. George S. Patton, efeaking to a group of Sunday school chil- dren at Los Angeles, said that he “hoped” a way would be found to end wars, but ad- ded, “in my opinion, there will be another war because there have always been wars.” Continuing his remarks to the children ef the Episcopal Church of San Gabriel, he pointed out that we have never found a way to stop war, “although I hope we do,” end then told the children that “you are the soldiers, sailors and nurses of the next war, if we don’t stop wars.” Thereafter, according to the United Press, the General told his listening group that he had found much comfort in religion during battle and urged them to cultivate their religious life, “if that day of war does come, you will find strong support in re- ligion.” - We have given a summary of the news account that came from Los Angeles on June 10, telling of the talk that General Patton made to a group of Sunday school children. The remarks of the General strike us as being eminently sound, sensible and deserving of general commendation. Accordingly, we were somewhat sur- prised to see an Associated Press dispatch, dated June 22, from Paris, giving the copy ef an imaginary letter, addressed to the General and somewhat blowing him up for his remarks. The writer of the sobby, sen- timental epistle asked a favor of the Gen- eral, that he “just stay a soldier.” In view of the facts as to what the General actually said and what the writer of the letter apparently assumed that he said, it might have been better for the writer of the blurb to follow his own ad- viee, and “just stay a soldier.” a a — rug “Bien. CALLS LADY A “GAS-BAG” some Key Westers are keeping in pretty / ASHES IN JAPAN As The Citizen has remarked before, close touch with the war, and one of them remarked yesterday: . “Do you recall what Reichmarshal Hermann Goering said, at the beginning of the war, that no Allied plane would be able to bomb Berlin? Of course, you recall that. remark, but do you remember what the Jap warlords said, shortly after this country’s entrance into the war, that Japan was safe from aerial attack? “But only three months later, in April of 1942, a squadron of American bombers, in command of Jimmy Doolittle, struck 9t Tokyo and caused consternation through- out Japan. Well, that raid was but as a flickering candle compared with the con- flagrations that are being caused in Japan today by American airmen. And we have the assurance of the American command that the raids will be conducted on a far greater scale.” ! He could have added too that Japan likely will be far more destructively bombed than was Germany. American correspondents, who have visited Berlin, declared that they had been unable to find a block in the entire city that had not been damaged. eA And so it will be not only in Tokyo but also in many other cities in Japan. Already 127 square miles in Japan have been devas- tated, and Japan will be practically re- | duced to ashes if she resists bombing at- | tacks as long as Germany did, for the buildings in Japan, with a few exceptions, are flimsy affairs gompared to what the structures were in Germany. Chapter 1. @ kvoes is usually a skeleton in the fanally closet, As a matter of fact, no family quite com- plete without one. The more un- mentionable the skeleton, the’ more delectable its past. For over forty years such a skeleton, referred to in the old days as “Eccentric Uncle Louie,” had remained locked up in the family closet of the Win- ston mansion overlooking Long Island Sound. Having been shorn of his cloak of flesh in a most abrupt, spectacular way, Uncle Louie had left some very impor- tant, mysterious business ished. Knowing his bones would never rest in peace until he had proven himself a genius, he had never, during his long years of confinement, given up hope that someday someone would have enough sense and courage to un-. lock his closet door and »elease him, On this auspicious night Uncle Louie felt for the first time in forty years the tingling ‘expecta- tion of escape penetrate his bones, as the thunder rolled, the light- ning crashed and marital woes began taking form in the palatial dining room below where John Winston sat with his wife, Madge, at a table whose great length put a considerable distance between them. “Madge,” he said, as if he were going to discuss the weather, “I’m in love with another woman.” “Why,” she asked simply, “have you waited this long to tell me?” “I wanted to be sure.” ‘ “And,” she hesitated, “you are sure—now?” f “Yes, Madge, I am,” was his Positive answer. 2 “What makes you so positive, John,” she asked ‘gently, “that such a glamorous, tempestuous stage star as Marlo Drew—” John interrupted. “How did you know it was Marlo Drew?” he asked in baf- fied astonishment.
