YANKS BATTLE
JAPS WITH HATE
IN THEIR HEARTS
Pearl Harbor, May 28. —Eitter-
ness fanned by the execution of 1
Americas Tokyo raiders is high
among the men in uniform
throughout the Pacific.
Across from the Royal Hawai
ian hotel in Honolulu's Wailciki
district, where Pacific men of war j
rest from sea duty and Guadal
canal, is a theatre, Sailors, ma
rines and soldiers were jammed
in it when a newsreel flashed the
features of Admiral William F.
i
H'alsey, Jr., commander in chief
of the South Pacific.
"...And if there's anything I
left of the damn place (Tokyo)
when we get there, we'll burn it
down," Halsey said from the
i
screen.
|
No football stadium ever rock
•ed with such shouts, yells ana
stamping of feet as did the
theatre when the men in the
armed forces showed their ap
proval of Fighting Bill's philoso
phy.
Oft-quoted is an excerpt fro;/.
a statement by Lt. Gent. Lesley
J. McNair, commander of U. S. I
ground forces who was woundoa '
in Tunisia: "We must, fight.. .we !
must shoot to kill.. .we must lust :
for battle. There can be no re- i
i
morse...no pangs of conscience!
... for our enemies have lighted '
the way to swifter, surer, crueler ;
killing."
Military men are prosecuting j
the Pacific war on these precepts
and follow another statement by
; Admiral Halsey: "The only way'
we'll win the war is to kill Japs, i
kill Japs, kill more Japs..."
When Major General Borowitz,
commander 01" the 15th Panzer di
vision in Tunisia, recently sur
rendered, he was invited, as were
members of his staff and another
; Nazi general, to lunch with the !
I American commanding general to
whom they surrendered.
One German officer was quoted
as saying, "...the Americans
fought like sportsmen."
American fighting men who 1
have been bombed on Guadal
canal, Funafuti and Canton; offi
jcers who,were in dogfights over
j the Solomons; men who raided
Munda; officers and men of Ad-!
miral Halsey have related ho".-
they fight with . hate in their
hearts. From what they an:"
1 their leaders have said, there will
be no shaking of hands over the
tennis net when the Pacific bat
tles are won. There won't be any
I invitations to lunch.
A few officers, seething with
resentment, speculate on whether
Tokyo may some day be a "Car
thage." One officer recalled that
when the Romans wiped out the
Cathaginian war lords, the land
was plowed with salt. '.But I

Mrs. W. E. Wilkinson enter
tained Wednesday on the lawn
of Mrs. J. Spot Taylor honoring
her daughter, Martha, 01 nei
sixth bhthday.
j Several games were played. The
glove monkey and "Ham & Sam' -
were very much enjoyed.

won prizes.
The cake was decorated with

J. Fred Bradshaw, Miss Rebee
'ca Brown and Mrs. Edna Pullen
from Buigaw will spend the
week-end with Miss Luna Taylor.
Mr. Bradshaw is an oil dealer, a
county commissioner and a mem
ber of the rationing board. Miss
I Brown is the daughter of Sheriff
Brown of Pender county. She is
secretary for the solicitor and
jJudga of thr.t county. Mr. Pul-
ion is a school teacher.
'guess our vengeance can't be thru
: complete," he added,
j Recently, when Carthage fell to
j advancing Allied armies in Tu-
Jnisia, correspondents said it WPK
hard to realize that here once
i was centered one of the Romai:

j Pearl Harbor, the torture of
j the Chinese ana Javanese, ino
i wiping out of Chinese civi
lians from areas where America' 3
Tokyo raiders crashed, all add uy
:to shape the views of military
j personnel in the Pacific.
Not all express the same views
but on. o.'.ieer said blunt!} : 'ii
anything can be found in ills.-
hearts cr minds of the Juj.c'-ia;;.
resembling civilisation, it should

jfT PLANNING ISN'T NEWfcM

► To plan properly, the farmer has to know about crops,'
[•oils, seasons, tools, and stock; and die man operating •'

and engineering. I ,
,i Yet for all this specialized knowledge of
, (these activities requires, the managers of both farm and| -

t have the same problems— to mention a few—of em*]
"jployment and taxes, of costs and a fair profit, of setting]
y«side reserves for a ,4 rainy day."

On the battlefronts throughout
