Moroncy, firm official, announc ed today. t JT """SL "?,. ip. m. A recent advertisement in the Saturday Evening Post, In which a copy-writer produced a simu lated letter from a soldier to his mother on what he was fighting for, was the basis for a satirical editorial in Le Tomahawk, mimeographed news bulletin published in Normandy by Lt. Col. Roy D. Craft, former public relations officer for the Medford CCC district and well known here. The ad, in part, said: "Dearest Mom: So old Bess has pups again! That reminds me of so much. She had her last litter two years ago just about this time of year when everything was so fresh and new. That's what I want to get back to, Mom what all of us are fighting to get back to the world at homo where a fel low can give the sort of welcome he ought to give to a litter of setter pups In the spring. To watch them grow up with all the other new, young things in a world that's bright and free . . ." Soldiers Grown Men To which, in his editorial, Col. Craft replied, in part: "We think I It's high time the copy-writers l learn this war is being fought by grown men. We are soldiers and good ones, and we are fight ing because our country is at war and for reasons which grown men understand. "We get .pretty fed up with the sticky ads that begin 'Dear Mom' and end 'and that. Mom, is what I am fighting for the corner drugstore with its double extra - special - thick chocolate malteds.' "But since the public seems to think that soldiers are simple asses, drooling slush in the face of machine-gun fire, we offer the following uncopyrighted 'Dear Mom' letters from the front: "Dear Mom: Well, here we are in Normandy. I saw a cute little piggy-wiggy, Mom, and gracious, was he cute. That's what I'm fighting for, Mom, little piggy wiggies and little ducky-wuckies and little lambie-wambies and oh, Just oodles of young, free things to brighten a brave, new world. Your loving son, Joe." Col, Craft wrote two other "letters" in his editorial, strictly for GI consumption and not of a character to be reprinted in a civilian newspaper, and both ridiculed the advertisement as only Craft could do. ILLINOIS FELON YIELDS CLUE IN Chicago, Aug. 25 (U.R) A Statcville penitentiary convict's story that he may have given n Chicago pollcoman the revolver used In the Drake hotel slaying of Mrs. Adele Born Williams, wife of a Washington diplomat, last January 19 sent Chicago police to Bloomlngton, 111., to day to search for some bullets fired from the gun 11 years ago.
