A Globe News Publishing Co. opinion piece from Amarillo argues a magazine ad overstresses sympathy for a soldier father. It mocks romantic baby imagery while praising Army life for sparing 180 nightly infant demands and notes the father’s military duties shaped his experiences.
Dorothy Thompson argues postwar immigration and resettlement pose global challenges. She notes Australia and the British Commonwealth have vast land but smaller populations, urging open training camps and cooperative farms to retrain migrants for farming and crafts, enabling dignified self support in underpopulated regions.
War correspondent Ernie Pyle describes Casablanca as a city at peace where soldiers are bored and yearn for front-line action. He recalls regimentation over appearance, a missing necktie episode, and a kind sergeant who lent a necktie amid travel with Air Transport Command.
ATC put us up at the best hotel in town and fed us fine food at an Army mess in another hotel. My roommate was Lieut. Col. Maynard Ashworth of Columbus, Ga. Waiting in Casablanca, six soldiers who were headed home for specialized training sought help after being effectively frozen. I arranged a meeting with a senior colonel who promised a decision by tomorrow night. The lobby crowd surged with desperate men seeking recognition and aid, and I stayed to help them, signing autographs and photos before a protective MP escorted me back to the hotel. Also cited is War Manpower Director Paul V. McNutt and a tongue-in-cheek warning about cold feet in marriage from a correspondent. The piece ends with a Paris radio jab about invasion timing.
