] ML BOY WRITES
FROM ENGLAND
.'hwrc is nothing that brings the
\ r closer to us than to hear di
i tly from one we have known
t a l>oy who has grown to man
l A and doing his bit to win the
• \ r Corporal Stuart Morison,
t .ndson of Judge Morison, writes
. nost interesting letter, parts of
ieh follow:
“I did a bit of traveling last
\ jek. Ii was alone but on duty.
j".ring my journey 1 visited Lon
t n twice. At long last, what a
; rill. There they were before my
i as, Big Ben, Wes mans ..er mbbey,
ihedral, BucKingiuti.. i mace
. .use of Parliament, tat. Paul’s
i i many other places we ve heard
« out. I might adu that u was
i e of the biggest thrills in
1 / life. You can imagine me
l mining across London, xroxn St.
x .ncras. station to Waverloo sta
\.vn with my two baxrac.v.s oags
Over rn,y shoulder, my gas mask
L .vler one arxn anu my travel or
t. rs and papers under che other.
Londoners have seen strange
sights' Seeing England is just
lme reading a history book and
having it come to 1-fe. Wish you
\.cre all here seeing it, but not
u. vdei the same circumstances.
1 in already planning to come back
alter the war.
•‘By the way, did you read about
the big raid on London on Feb
ruary 4th? Well, I was in that
and 1 hope it was the last time
There I was, peacefully sleeping
and about 5:00 a. m. Friday morn
ing the sirens started blow.ng. It
lasted an hour and five minutes.
That makes about the twentieth
raid I’ve been in so far. As saia
before, I guess I shouldn't write
this stuff, but it’s news.
“When things start popping I'll
send you a cablegram about twice
a month.
“Your dissertation on Lord Ba
con’s sentence was nothing for me
to smile about. It is very true.
I wonder just how many people
could understand that simple sen
tence? If all nations understood
it then we 11,000,000 Americans
wouldn’t have to dress in O. D.
and spill blood on foreign soil
And that goes for the British,
French, Poles, Czechs, Dutch,
etc. Think of all the misery, grief
and bloodshed that has been
caused because one nation will
not “love thy neighbors.” Eu
rope isn't a society; it’s a group
of nations constantly at each
other’s throat.
“I did a bit of sightseeing last
Wednesday my day off, so I went
to Liverpool and spent the day.
What a city! It’s really been plas
tered by bombs. Entire blocks are
destroyed or in ru ns everywhere
I visited the cathedral of Liver
pool and it is one of the most
beautiful buildings I’ve seen.
About one-third of it was des
troyed by a bomb, but they're
busy building it back. The dome
is the highest in the world—170
feet. I stood in the middle and
looked up. Nearly fell over back
wards.
The “Jerrys” are trying to re
new the “blitz” of 1940-41. The
newspapers don’t write too much
about the raids, but believe me
they’re something. Plenty of dam
age and casualties. We're all
kind of tense over here waiting
for the “big push” to start. Wish
I could tell you what little I know
but more than anything, we’re
anxious for it to be over with.
Dark days lie ahead on the con
tinent. According to the papers
there is much over-confidence in
the States. I was glad that
Roosevelt made the statement that
the war in Europe may not end
this year. He's right. Look how
long its taken the Allies to get
within 25 miles of Rome, with ;
couple of years or so of prepara
tion. You can imagine what it will
take to reach Paris or Germany.
Well, we live and there are 24
hours in a day, so I don’t care to
| write about it. I had another
of those extra-special treats, that
occur infrequently, last night.
Had a small glass of fresh cow's
milk. First I’ve tasted in over five
months! Now, if I only had a
steak, half a dozen fresh eggs, an
gel food cake, plate of fudge a
dozen oranges or equal amount of
bananas, an ice cream sundae,
soda, or banana split and a fire
side at home I’d be satisfied
However, I’m afraid I’m going to
do a stretch in the South Pacific
before these become a reality.
Happy day, I'll be home for Christ
mas about 1945.
“After receiving no letters for
about two weeks, nine came today.
Your letters-are warm, interesting
and satisfying My moral went up
again! Wish one came every day!
Love to all,
STUART

REP. BLOOM KNOWS
THE LAW ABOUT THE
AMERICAN FLAG
WASHINGTON —(AP>— Rep.
Sol Bloom <D-NYi an au hor'ty
on the Constitution and the 1' aj;
wore a broad smile as he let'
White House office recently, bu
quickly changed to a scowl when
he noticed an American flag with
a gold border in the executive of
fice lobby.
“That is against the law which
says the flag should be plain and
not trimmed or embellished in
any way.” Bloom stormed.
B g Bill Simmon’s the presi
dent’s doorkeeper, immediately
called the army adjutant gener
al’s office and told Bloom they
would take the matter under ad
visement.
“They don't have to take it un
der advisement, it’s wrong,” the
New Yorker shot back.
"How do you know?" a report
er asked.
"I wrote the law,” was the re
ply.
LIGHTLY TRIPS
THE TONGUE
CAMP VAN DORN, Minn.—
(AP>—That “illa-dolla-d lla-dolla"
part of the tobacco auctioneer’s
chant is meaningless “fill-in” and
comes from the attempt of one
auctioneer to disparage a small
bid, says Private David K Be
thea, in civilian life general man
ager and an auctioneer for a to
bacco company in Mullins. N. C
This unknown auctioneer, he
reports, chanted: "Hey—one dol
lar, little dollar, little dollar.” La
ter auctioneers, copied the chant
and slurred the wrords into mean
ingless jumbo to kill time between
bids.
