F (Mr. Edson, Washirigton columnist for~The Indianapolis Times, is substituting today for Ernie Pyle who is on vacation but expects to return to an assignment on the war fronts in the near future. Mr.. Edson: is on a two-weeks tour of the North Atlantic bases of the Army Transport Command and this is one of several articles describing conditions at these little-known military outposts.)

OVER THE GREENLAND ICE CAP AT THE ARCTIC CIRCLE, Nov. 25~—"The Greenland ice-cap is very easy to describe,” said Capt. Harold L. Strong at an arm air transport command base in southern

Greenland. Capt. Strong should Know. Before running a paper mill in Dallas, Tex, he was for seven years in Alaska and in the last two years he has had a leading part in building up the army's search and rescue service in the North Atlantic, He knows. the Arctic, He's an old hand with dogs. He has mushed in and around a good bit. So let Capt. Strong speak with authority on the Greenland fce-cap: “There are 750,000 square miles of it, and its population is zero.”* End of Capt.

Strong's description of the Greenland ice cap. But.

maybe there is more to the story than that, om New York to Newfoundland is five hours, from Newfoundland to Julianehaab at the top of southern Greenland is five hours, and from there to the Arctice Circle is three hours. It is therefore 13 hours from New York to the Arctic Circle, and in some not too distant day you might board an aerial excursion plane at La Guardia field at dusk and see the sun rise over the Greenland ice cap next morning. It is easily one of the world's-greatest sights, if and whenever you can make it,

Of at Dawn

IN COMPANY with 11 other newspaper and magazine writers, this correspondent did not make the jump that easily, but in three separéte hops, with stopovers at each place to be shown what the army air transport command was doing in the way of Arctic flying in winter, The big plang a Douglas four-engined C-54 transport, took off from the army's Bluie West One

‘air base in southern Greenland by the dawn’s early

light. After a clear night with a brilliant display of the northern lights, the big snow-covered mountain across the fjord stood out in ciear white relief. Out the west window of the plane as it. flew north up the eastern Greenland coast, we saw the limitless expanse of that three-yusrters of a million miles of snow and ice. Then the sun's first rays caught the tips of the Jew peaks that extended above the miledeep ice-cap. Ang

“~ MRS. GREGORY R. KLEIN, 5120 E. Walnut, has & problem. Her husband, in the air corps, is in Italy now. But while he was stationed in California last summer he sent her a live horned toad which she has named Pete. Mrs. Klein writes: “Pete has a nice wood box with a screen front, sand to Burrow in and all the comforts of home. His favorite food is flies. While this fact presented no problems during the warm months, it has become an almost insurmountable obstacle at present.” She came to us for help. If any of you have any flies around the house she'd like to have them—dead or alive, Just swat them and drop them in an bk: envelope and mail them to her. T— i Pete likes them alive. But Mrs. Klein can push the dead ones toward him and he thinks they're alive and grabs them. ... An insurance ‘company executive calls to complain about what he describes us the “meanest man in town.” The executive searched all over town unsuccessfully for a Boy Scout knife for his son, overseas. Finally, his search led him to a small store on Virginia ave, where to his joy he saw a display board with nearly 100 knives on it. Included was a Scout knife with a pre-war price marked on it. But the proprietor refused to sell it. Too much: trouble to remove it from the display case, we're told. Our caller was enraged, mentioned that it was a lot of trouble for young men to give up civilian life and go overseas to fight for their country. But the proprietor was adamant. He did compromise by covering the display —several feet square—with ‘cardboard. Personally, we can't understand the proprietor’'s attitude,

=~ IN 54 HOURS a small summer camp for underprivileged children in the, outskirts of Hickory, N. C, was converted into a 40-bed hospital, with doctors, nurses, physical therapists and all the material equipment necessary for grappling with the worst outbreak of infantile paralysis in the history of the state. That was the beginning of the Hickory Emergency Infantile Paralysis hospital, better known in the state today as the “Miracle of Hickory.” The name is well chosen, for it was truly a miracle of swift action and successful cooperation between local citizens, the medical profession and the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. Carpenters and electricians donated their time, arriving on -the scene with the tools of their trade. Merchants gave needed supplies. The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis supplied ‘medical equipment, funds for operating expenses, and rushed doctors, nurses and physical therapists to the scene, ’ As readers know, the United - States this summer suffered the second worst epidemic of poliomye-

We had two hours of that, flying over lost glaciers by the dozen until we lost count. It was a rarity of a perfect Arctic day. Little or no wind over the snow. Hard, cruel lines of the crevasses and halfformed snow bridges stood out boldly. The rugged 50-mile band of rock mountains hugs the coast line, cut by countless deep fjords. The Norse village of Angmagssalik is tucked into one, The army's bluie east two base, with a tiny aif strip, range station and weather observation center, is tucked into another. Then we reached the Arctic: circle and. the pilet wagged the wings to make the passengers feel the bump on the line.

NOW ALL THIS is sissified, pantywaist exploring that should properly make old-time sour-doughs and blue-noses flush with-anger, thaw and turn over in their frozen graves. And what has it to do with the war? It wasn’t just an aerfal joy ride and it had nothing to do with planning for post-war flying. But the air transport €ommand had something to sell, here, and a story to tell, letting the public in on how the army had won a ‘battle on the Arctic front, overcoming the most formidable weapons of its enemy in the world-——ignorance and fear. Up to last year, fliers had been afraid of the North Atlantic in winter, Too tough. They were afraid of it because they didn't know it. Fear is overcome through knowledge. The army set out to learn something about the Arctic weather and what made it unsafe for flying, as‘the first step in making it safe for flying. Here was the proof. Over these North Atlantic routes have flown the tactical and the transport planes to Europe. - Over these North Atlantic routes, returning, have come the wounded and the soldiers from Burma who have earned their leaves. These are the ’routes-of the high priority stuff— people and cargo—in-a hurry and above the menace of the submarine on the surface. That they can move at all in safety is because of lonely bands of little men like those below here at BE-2—bluie east two—who have fought this weather at its worst, its colds of 40 below and its winds of 125-and above, month after month after weary month. Up here above the Greenland ice-cap.-and above the Arctic circle, even in the luxury of a heated cabin plane soaring at 200 miles an hour, you get a little different perspective on what it has taken to win this war and what winning it can do to win the war after the war—against ignorance and fear.

still is gnashing his teeth over the election. A rabid Republican, he had goften used to pulling the second (Republican) lever on voting machines while the Democrats were in power locally. This time, when his wife asked how to vote, he just gave her the same instructions: “Pull the second lever.” They went to the polls together Nov. 7. He voted first, pulling the second lever, and then his wife went into the voting machine booth. Just before she came out he looked up at a chart of ‘the machine and discovered that the second lever was the Democratic lever in this election. “How did you vote?” he asked; excitedly, as she came out. “I did just as you said—pulled the second lever,” she replied. He groaned. And so, he hasn't been the same since—both votes cast the “wrong” way. ,

Rah, Rah, Tech! 2

THERE, WASN'T a Tech high school back in the days of James Whitcomb, governor of Indiana during the Mexican war, But nevertheless, the ex-governor’s statue on Monument circle seems to be expressing his approval of the school. Anyway, we noticed yesterday that the governor's statue was holding in its hand some faded green and white ribbon. . . . Our federal building agent calls to report the activities of a couple of men up near the top of the world war memorial. The men were up on the ledge with the statues and seemed to be doing their late fall housecleaning. We called Frank Henley and Frank said the men merely were getting the monument ready for winter, patching leaks and removing debris left by the pigeons. . . . The Red Cross gets a nice pat on the back in a letter from 8. Sgt. Thomas A. Trittipo, over in England or France, to his mother. The sergeant, whose home is at 2020 Olney, writes: “Mother, the Red Cross sure it O. K. over here. I would have been sunk a couple of times if not for it. I used to ‘wonder what it did, but now I know—just worlds of good.” In another letter he wrote: “The fool has improved and the camp is now the best place to get something to eat, other than the Red Cross. I said it once and I'll say it again: The Red Cross sure is a wonderful thing over here.” Not a bad recommendation, eh! '

JAPS NAPPING—

Regular Raids On Tokyo Set By B-29 Crews

By LISLE SHOEMAKER United Press Staff Correspondent SAIPAN ISLAND, Nov. 25.-— A confident group of Superfortress crewmen, - brushing aside their first strike on Tokyo as their “easiest mission,” declared today that ‘the giant B<20’s of the U. S. 21st bomber command are ready to’start bombing the enemy capital on a regular sehedule. : Pilots, bombardiers and gunners of the first Superforts to return to Saipan after yesterday's bold daylight raid agreed that the Japanese were caught napping and that their own formation, at least, was virtually unopposed. a J »

“IT. WAS by far the easiest mission I have been on,” said Maj. Robert Morgan, Asheville, N. C. pilot of the “Dauntless Dotty” that carried Brig. Gen. Emmett O'Donnell Jr., commander of the striking force, to Tokyo. “We saw a few Jap fighter planes, but they didn’t get near us,” he added. “But we fired our guns just for fun.” Former pilot of the Flying Fortress “Memphis Belle” that won fame with the U. 8. 8th air force in Europe. Morgan said he saw bombs dropped from the highflying B-29’s land squarely on the Nakajima aircraft factory buildings selected as their target. o ” o

O'DONNELL, who piloted the “Dauntless Dotty” on: the entire flight, except during the hombing run when Morgan took the controls, hailed the raid as the trailblazer for regular attacks on Tokyo. “The B-29 is a honey of an airplane,” ‘he said. “It performed perfectly. We B-29-ers are glad to get our shoulders to the wheel and start punching Tokyo regularly.” O'Donnell’s plane was the first over the target, and he revealed that a last-minute gust of wind cleared the sky over the factory after scattered clouds had obscured it momentarily. sn » HIS TAIL GUNNER, he said, reported seeing the “Dotty’s” bombs smack into a building, sending up debris and a cloud of dust and smoke, It was big moment for O'Donnell, who was chased out of the Philippines by the Japanese at the beginning of the war and later led a formation’ of B-17 Plying Fortresses in a raid on
