Treated Like ‘My Lord’

YOU MAY REMEMBER that when we got him out of his wrecked plane he asked the date and said his wedding anniversary was only three days away and he hoped to make it back to England for that. He was nearer right than we had thought. He arrived in England one day after the anniversary. After that he was in an American general hospital for 16 days. As his wife says, he was treated like “my lord.” He was their prize patient. And then he Was removed to the R. A. F, hospital where he is now

Inside Indianapolis By Lowel Nussbaum

A FEMININE reader called th city desk yesterday and asked how old Ernie Pyle is Informed that he Was 44, she replied that had read Ernie’s reprinted story Monday in which he said he was “approximately 80 years old.” “We didn't think it could be possible he could go through all he has” she said, “and be 80 years old.” . Guess old Ernie must have been telling how old he felt at the moment. We feel older than that, sometimes. . . . A phone call to the Claypool hotel by Mrs. John L. H. Fuller, president of the Indianapolis - League of Women Voters, served as a timely reminder to the woman who .answered for the hotel. “I'm calling for the League of Women Voters,” y began Mrs. Fuller. “Oh, yes,” interrupted the hotel employee, “I must get over to the courthouse and register.

WE'RE ALWAYS opening our big mouth and show Ing our ignorance. For instance, Monday we mene tioned that the Chicago Tribune was using envelopes that “were misprinted, with the flap at the bottom instead of at the top.” Imagine our embarrassment when Mrs. Warren White, 4522 Carrollton, called our attention to the fact that various firms have automatic stamping and sealing machines which require envelopes with flaps at the bottom. ...

THE SCIENTIFIC trick which made Hitler's robot bomber possible was the solution. of the problem of §etling air into the combustion chamber of the rocket. The rocket shells used in the bazooka and other focket guns operate on the principle of the familiar Fourth of July rocket. Their propelling powders contain both the fuel and the oxygen necessary for their combutsion. When the fuse is lighted, a train of hot gases begins to escape and the recoil drives the rocket forward. The jet propulsion plane burns kerosene or some similar fuel in a combustion chamber and in similar fashion the train of hot gases, released from a nozzle at the tail of the plane, drives the plane forward. But to get enough air to burn the fuel, the plane must have a compressor which sucks in and compresses atmospheric air and a gas turbine which turns the compressor,

Too Much Powder

THE NAZIS, wishing to launch rockets against England from the coast of France could not build simple rockets because a rocket carrying enough powder to span the channel would be prohibitive in size and impossible to control. Each rocket, theoretically, could have been made & miniature jet propulsion plane with compressor, gas turbine and other necessary parts. But this would have been impossible because of the prohibitive costs, the drain on strategic materials and the terrific amount of labor involved,

Legs Cause Trouble

HIS RIGHT leg, which was not wounded at all, ills giving him trouble. Because of lying for eight days in one position, with the leg bent and pressure on 2 certain nerves, he has lost control over his foot. He can move the leg all right, but the foot just flops around, The doctors think it will eventually be all right. . . - His left leg is the worst problem. As you may recall, his left foot was pinned under the rudder bar all that time, and the calf of his leg had a shell hole in it. We couldn't tell just how bad the wound was when we got him out. " Well, the wound was apparently caused by a 20millimeter shell which exploded inside his leg. It completely destroyed about an inch of both bones in the leg. There was simply a cap there, with no bone whatever, \ He has already had three operations on his leg, and he will have many more. They will have to graft in new bone and then give it months to grow and strengthen. The doctors say it will be 10 months to a year before he can walk, but that eventually he should have 90 per cent use of his leg. That means he will probably walk with a dimp, but he will walk, As his wife wrote me, in a beautiful letter: “We have our fingers crossed to get him home for Christmas, After that I guess he and Clare Margaret can teach each other to walk.”

Simplest Motor Yet

IN THE OPINION of the editors of Iron Age, the Jet impulse motor on the German flying bomb is the most simple motor ever developed. It is, in effect, nothing but an ordinary steel tube narrowed down to a nozzle at its rear end. The front of the tube is covered by a gridwork, each opening in the grid being closed by a spring flap opening forward. When the robot bomber is launched into the air, the pressure of the atmosphere opens these flaps and air rushes in. When the pressure gets high enough, it automatically forces the flaps closed. Meanwhile, gasoline is being continuously sprayed into the tube at a rate which builds the mixture to the explosive point at the instant that the flaps close. . A firing plug now causes the mixture to explode and the hot gases leaving the nozzle keep the rocket in motion. The flaps on the gridwork now open again, admittig a new supply of air, and the whole process is repeated over again. The firing plug, incidentally, is merely a tiny wire kept white hot by an electric current, 2 The robot bomber also carries a small tank of compressed air but this is apparently to operate the gyroscopes which stabilize the rocket in flight. It is believed that an auxiliary rocket, loaded with powder, gets the robot bomber off the launching platform since the flaps on the gridwork cannot admit air until after the robot is already in motion,

The officers were elected yesterday ab an all-day meeting of representatives of 33 Baptist churches in Emmanuel Baptist church. Dr. O'Donnell succeeds Dr. George D. Billeisen. Dr. Clive McGuire, association executive secretary, described the department of ministerial standing as “very novel in an organization belonging only to Indianapolis.” It issues cards annually to ordained ministers who can qualify to serve in the Baptist church. Ministers who fail to receive these cards lack the indorsement of the council, Dr. McGuire said. The Rev. William O. Breedlove was re-elected president of the permanent council; the Rev. H. W. Ranes, vice-president, and the Rey. P. Wade, secretary-treasurer. Department heads in addition to Dr. Clutton are Dr. L. C. Trent, chairman of tHe department of ordained ministers; the Rev. G. E.

Planned to Replace ‘Rebel Ticket.’

DALLAS, Tex.; Sept. 13 (U, P).— Pro-administration Democrats were confident today that they had Texas’ 23 electoral votes signed, sealed and ready to deliver to President Roosevelt Nov. 7 “after winning control of a rebellious state convention and naming a committee to select a new slate of electors. The new electors would replace the original list selected at the convention last May, 15 of whom had said they would vote for Senator Harry 8. Byrd of Virginia, or some other Democrat. Anti-administration forces refused to concede defeat, however, and a court battle over the right to name a new slate of electors seemed imminent.

When that will be I am not at liberty to say. “The need for more workers here is uppermost in our minds now. We are transferring equipment here that has been stored at Lodi, N.

DEWEY RELAXES AT AID'S RANCH

Gets Optimistic Reports From Midwest Leaders; Pleased by Maine Vote,

By JOHN L. CUTTER United Press Staff Correspondent

VALENTINE, . Neb, Sept. 13.—

{

‘exuding the most confidence since win the presidential eleetion-in-No= vember, There were two major encouraging factors: ONE: Optimistic reports from midwestern Republican leaders on the outlook in Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota. TWO: Returns from Maine's state election showing what Dewey

described - as “the greatest Republican landslide in the history of the state.”

‘I Have a Story’

Dewey obviously enjoyed the encouraging news, as well as his period of relaxation at the 12,000-acre by-the-way ranch of former Governor Samuel R. McKelvie, western manager of the New York governor’s presidential campaign. It was evident when he walked briskly out on the lawn late yesterday afternoon and announced to the assembled correspondents: “Gentlemen, I have a story for you.” He had just finished a long telephone conversation with Republican National Chairman Herbert Brownell Jr. during which he received the results of the Maine election in which the Republican party won the gubernatorial and congressional races. Pointing out that Republican candidates polled more than 70 per cent of the total vote, an increase of seven per cent over 1940, Dewey said it was proof that “the marked Republican trend is continuing at an accelerating pace.” “The people of Maine have demonstrated the rising confidence in the leadership of the Republican party which I have found evidenced every place as I came across the country,” Dewey said,

In Jovial Mood

“It is becoming clear that the people have decided, not only for their states but in the national government as well, that the peace and prosperity of the United States and the world will be better served by the election of a new and competent administration and that they propose to elect a Republican congress to work with the new administration. “That will bring a new and refreshing harmony between the executive and legislative branches of government which we so long have needed and which is essential to the solution of the problems we will face next January.” Dewey was in a jovial mood, too, when he interrupted his conference with political and cattle industry

on the ranch house lawn. Greets Well-Wishers

Enroute to the barbecue pit he stopped to shake hands with wellwishers along the path and to call his wife's attention to one of the Albany, N. Y. correspondents, decked out in a loud sports shirt. Dewey described him as “the cowboy from Albany.” The barbecue, including pounds of point-free utility beef, potato salad, tomatoes, cole slaw, and about 10 varieties of pies baked by the wives of neighboring ranch-

State G. O. P. Chairman John Lauer hailed the Maine election as the “beginning of the end for all Roosevelt-Hillman supported candidates.” He - declared that Hillman's support was hurting Roosevelt in this state. “It has cuf deeply into the independent labor vote, the vote which refuses to be dominated by any person or any group,” Mr. Lauer said. We are receiving re ports from many sources in the state which clearly indicate that tried and true Democrats, always supporters of the Democratic ticket when there was a Degio-

Senatorial Nominee Homer E. Capehart uses’ the words, “the Hillman-Roosevelt ticket” as a ‘blanket ‘description for all Democrats. Gubernatorial Nominee Ralph Gates - reverses the phrase to make it “the Roose-velt-Hillman ticket.”

» ” ” The ‘Devil’ Strategy THIS SORT OF THING js good politics, if it works. And the Republicans believe it does, particularly in conservative Indiana. It is always good strategy to make, at least as far as the general public is concerned, a “devil” out of a leader of the opposition, That's what the Democrats did successfully to President Hoover during his term of office. So effective was this that the Democrats are still using it, asking the public if they want four mere years of Hooverism under Dewey. John L. Lewis was the “devil” of the 1940 campaign and there are many Republicans today who think his indorsement of Wendell Willkie did much more harm than good. Mr. Willkie is being quoted as saying that if he had to do it over he would have repudiated Mr. Lewis because of his sub-zero position in public opinion. san, Former Senator James E. Watson is reported to have advised Mr. Lewis in 1940 to come out against Roosevelt but not to give Willkie “the kiss of death” by indorsing him. He didn’t do that and Willkie lost. ? Now, Lewis evidently is following that strategy—fighting Roose velt and officially keeping away from Dewey as far as is possible —although it is obvious that he cannot fight Roosevelt and not be for Dewey. The Democrats undoubtedly will do something about Mr. Lewis. if they get half a lead, doing to him what the Republicans are doing to Mr. Hillman. Mr. Lewis is still better known, especially to the boys who have been overseas, and if the Democrats can effectivelv tie him to Mr. Dewey, it won't help the G. O. P. any. They'll have Lewis’ wartime strike record to use too. 5
