Christened
The V . S. S. Swanson, new de­
stroyer, sliding down the ways at
the Charleston, S. C ., navy yard.
I t was christened by M rs. Claude
Swanson, wife of the late secretary
of the navy.
Perhaps, m aking his frank ad­
dress before the national assem­
bly, he has a hole card which
the juggernaut powers hadn’t
figured on. A t any rate, he is
bold and explicit about T u rke y ’s
determination to stick to her a l­
liance with G reat B ritain, and
proclaims that “ The bonds of
alliance which unite us to her
are solid and unbreakable.”
Those who have played poker w ith
the m an, ingratiating little fighter
and diplom at say that when he beta
’em he has ’em— all kibitzers gloom­
ily shaking their heads, however,
as they figure the Axis hand.
It was as Ishm et Pasha that he
made his career, changing his name
in line with K em al A taturk's mod­
ernization program . A colonel in
the Turkish a rm y , he m ade a peril­
ous passage through hostile lines in
1920, and joined K em al A taturk.
Jointly, in less than two years, they
drove the Greeks out of Anatolia
and Sm yrna and in the following
years built modern T u rkey. He was
mysteriously benched during K em al
A ta tu rk ’s last year, but appeared
at the helm, with power and prestige
unlessened at the la tte r’s death.
F o r the last two years, G e r­
m any’s clever and resourceful
Von Pa pen has been attending
to political and diplom atic sabo­
tage in Tu rkey. The word has
been that the astute President
Inonu has always been a jum p
or two ahead of him and that
Turkey hasn’t been readied for
the k ill in the m anner of other
sm all powers. The president has
fostered carefully the Turkish
hegemony over the Moslem bloc,
and whenever the Axis powers
kick Islam in the face, his peo­
ple know about it. His alliance
gives England a valuable lia i­
son with Islam , which may be­
come m ore and more im portant
as the w ar wears on.

General H askell, appointed to
the command of the New York
National Guard by Gov. A lfred
E . Smith in 1926, is a West
Pointer who has preached stiff
discipline and long yelled for
more and better fighting tools
for the arm y. Out of West Point
in 1961, he was graduated from
the infantry school in 1904 and
saw service in the Philippine
islands, the M exican border,
France, the N ear East and Rus­
sia, directing A m erican re lie f in
Russia from 1921 to 1923. He
has been an alert student of the
new requirements of mechanized
w arfare — no traditionalist or
mossback and by all accounts

Henryks Trip to See

H e slid his tired feet into a pair
of slippers, lit his pipe, sat down
in the easy-chair with a sigh of
relief, and declared 20,000 wild
horses couldn’t make him go out.
“ H e n ry ,” said his w ife, “ you
posted that le tte r I gave you?”
“ I did, m y love,” he answered.
“ I asked mother to postpone her
visit for a w hile,” his wife con­
tinued. “ You see— ”
H enry did so. The tired man
jumped from his chair, kicked off
his slippers, put on his boots, and
slipped out into the m u rk y street.
F iv e minutes later, H en ry came
back w ith the tale that he had
been to see how the therm om eter
outside the post office stood.
