We don't hear as much about Belgium in this war
as we did in the last war, when a little corner of it
stayed free. None of it was free after 1940. And yet
some of it was. To take a single example, there are
the eleven hundred Belgium notaries public, concern
ing whom some facts have recently leaked out.
A Belgium notary isn't as easy and informal in his
ways as are his American opposite numbers male
and female. By law there can be just eleven hundred
of him. lie belongs to a guild. He is appointed for
life. Usually he tries to have the appointment pass to
his son. He makes wills and draws up marriage con
tracts. If any land or house is to be transferred he has
to sit in on the contract. No notary, no contract. No
contract, no soap.

DIVE BOMB PILOT,
Lt. (Ik) Don R. Gillespie,
car-
rler based dive bomber pilot, ar
rived in Mcdford this morning
from a Californln port to spend
a month's leave with his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Everett Gillespie,
1315 East Main street. Climaxing
a year of flying during which
his unit participi.tcd in the cam
paigns In the, Marshall Islands,
Gilbert Islands and Marianas,
the young officer was shot down
during the battle of Saipan. He
escaped with burns of a minor
nature but his gunner was se
verely burned and is still a pa
tient on a hospital ship.
Lt. Gillespie is of the opinion
that the Pacific war, while ac
celerated, will be of long dura
tion and points out that many of
the main islands have received
Uttlo attention other than bomb
ings to keep landing facilities out
of commission. The officer ex
pects to remain in this country
for about six months and then
return to sea duty.
A graduato of Medford high
school, Lt. Gillespie was a foot

News Behind
The News
By Paul Mallon
Washington, Aug. 1 The In
ternational bank created In the
woods at' Bretton Is misnamed.
It Is nothing
like a bank, ex
cept that It
will be a place
for foreign na
1 1 o n to get
money. It is
really a' credit
g u a rantee in
stitution. Only
one-fifth of its
proposed loans
for rehabilita-
Faui Maiion tion and de
velopment will
be made directly by It. The other
four-fifths will be guarantees of
loans by private bankers.
The negotiators at Bretton did
"t,T'a"t,to. 811 u bank, but
vuu.u ujiiin ux no uincr wora. i
bank, as you know, Is a place
where people deposit their mon
ey, which Is taken by the banker
and loned to bring a profit to
the institution. Any comparison
of that formula to what was set
up at Bretton is humorous if not
Ironical.
pERTAIN general standards
for the loans were fixed, but
these were the easiest possible
stnndnrds naturally. They were
not the standards of banks for
commercial loans. What these j
standards are will become fully
apparent only as the loans are
mude and the complex wordings I
of the agreement are Interpreted I
by the heads of the Institution.
Buf the whole idea is to pro-
o.uic luiumii renaoiuiaiion and
development (not to get money
back), so the standards, you may
be sure, were fixed accordingly.
What the realistic Russians
thought of this 'is apparent in
their actions. Thev foueht for
i the lowest possible part in the
'bank, and the best part thev
could get in the exchange agree
ment. Participation in the bank
obviously Is a liability. But par
ticipation in the exchange agree
ment will give the Russians more
dollars and more pounds, and
also give them more power in
world trade voting, as voting
power over the fund is to be
based on the extent of moi.etary
participation.

WILL the exchange agreement

isting level, or at a fair and
Just level as everyone wishes?
It will have trouble. The aeree.
I mcni nm not fix rates. We have
already fixed some rates for our
selves, the invasion rate of a 2
cent franc and a 1-cent lire.
In the negotiations each
country wanted to keep Its rate
as high as possible against the
dollar and thus China aeh eved
tne prospect of a 3-cent yuan.
That is a politically friendly rate,
not an actual rate. One expert
recently out of China said the

ed. therefore, that this exchange
agreement does not stabilize ex

$3.1100.000,000 fund, through
which it may be done. As for
the $0,100,000,000 bank, it will
go on the rocks sooner or later.

Picture of Pacific War is.
Painted by Wounded Writer
New York U.B A Japanese shell fragment missed pene
trating Joe James Custer's brain by a quarter of an inch. In
stead of killing him, it cost him an eye and produced the in
spiration for one of this war's most vivid eyewitness books-
"Through the Perilous Night."
The injury ended Custer s ca-j
reer as United Press war corre
spondent and sent him back to
a UP sports beat. His records of
the sights, sounds and smells of
battle are so graphic they might
well discourage other young
wars.
The book is short, but cram
med with a variety of revela
tions, battle philosophy, humor
and the gripping suspense of a
writer spending months on a
hospital bed wondering If he
would be blind, half-blind or
wholly sound.
Custer describes the Tokyo-
bound take-off of Doolittle's
raiders from the Hornet, Adm
Halsey's rise to fame beginning
with the first strike at Wake
and Marcus, and loss of the
cruiser Astoria off Guadalcanal
the sinking in which Custer
lost an eye.
In the Marcus raid, he relates
how carrier pilots after drop
ping their bombs exchanged ra
dio messages to make the Jap
anese believe other planes were
en route to hit Tokyo and Yok
ohama "just a little gag to
scare the pants off T0J0."
He passes on an unconfirmed
story that Adm. Yamamota him
self directed operations in the
battle of Midway and went
down on his flagship.
He predicts north-south shut-

finally conquered by "derail
ment of the Tokyo Express"
sinking of Japanese reinforce

"The magnitude of the Slo
mons campaign has never been
fully realized. Some day Its de
tailed barbaric history will awe
the civilized world. The clock
had turned back thousands of
years, back to the primitive,
on Guad."
