NEW YORK. Aug. 3—We have seen a certain lack of enthusiasm for being drafted, lately. One headline says that at least a third of those called have not turned up to be chosen, in New York aloné—and it is kind of understandable. Korea is scarcely a garden spot, for a start. ‘It is an {irregular sort of war we have going there—where the good Injuns look just like the JInjuns, and the Southern Koreans can’t even themselves from the Damyankee Koreans by saying “you-all.

No Sex Angle in Korea THERE IS, unfortunately, no sexy angle to this - fresh fight of ours. In previous times we have embarked on c.usades if only to get out of the house, to slake our hungry thirst for sensa-

nobody ever heard of Casablanca and Guadalcanal, Anzio and Eniwetok. Now we know about the world. The younger brothers of the WW II lads are all caught up on furrin real estate. They have also been indoc-

trinated by firsthand conversation and a spate:

of movies and books and plays, to a point where a war is less an adventure than a chore. A good soldier should be an angry soldier, and it is very difficult for a young man in Manhattan to become angry at a North Korean, North Koreans being something less than villainous to contemplate at far distances.

I remember landing there one hot night a few years back and sitting down— thanks to a typical military snafu—to a dinner of roast pork, dressing and fried potatoes. = This was a meal suitable for Arctic forces in midwinter, but it was the best the hospitable gents there had. A couple of hours later I was on: my way. I took a swig of bicarbonate of soda aloft and settled down to feeling sorry for the poor devils on this godforsaken but strategic island.
