The

goes
that
when
Admiralof

Sir
Andew
Browne
Cunningham
received
one
of
those
many
war
forms
to

wrote,
opposite-
the

what
he
was
in

well
be
a
true
story,

The.
Acts
of
Hoodlums
.
.
.
There
are
continuing
complaints
of
wilful
damage
to
public
property
such
as
pulling
down
of
the
iron
pipe
rails
of
the
downtown
sidewalks,
the
breaking
of
street
lights
and
other
acts
of
the
kind.
It
might
be
said
that
children
may
not
know
any
better
than
to
engage
in
such
sort
of
hoodlurn
and
vandalism
but
that
cannot
be
said
of
grown-up
men.
Ic
is
difficult
for
the
police
authorities
to
be
watching
out
on
every
street
corner
for
the
protection
of
property
public
or
private
from,
such
sort
of
afmse.
Rightly
or
wrongly,
service
men
are
being
blamed
for
a
lot
of
this
sort
of
thing.
Possibly
a
word
of
warning
and
advice
from
the
commanding
officers
might
have
some
effect
if
the
men
themselves,
do
not
know
any
better.

appreciative
of
what

'but
that
appreciation

us
from
feeling
that

or
not,
they
should
still
act
as
responsible
citizens,
respectful
of
the
rights
and
property,
of
others.
They
etfpect
the
public
and
community
to
hdlp
them.
In
turn,
they
should
act
in
a
manner
to
warrant
the
willing
giving
of
that
help.
They
should
also
remember
that
the
careless
and
thoughtless
acts
of
a
few
alienate
respect
and
sympathy
for
the
many.
What
Luzon
Means
.
.
.
With
the
American
-landingion
Luzon,
MacArthur
has
fulfilled
his
promise
to
return
to
the
Philippines,
the
Japanese
are
put
on
the
defensive
all.
along
their
Asiatic
front,
and
the
war
assumes
an
entirely
new
form.
That
form
is
one
of
large
scale
warfare
between
the
Nipponese
and
the
Allies,
the
first
chance
they
have
had
to
show
how
their
battle
equipment,
their
training
and
their
psychology
match
up
when
100,000
or
more
troops
on
each
side
get
into
action.
The
battle
of
the
Philippines
will
be,
as
this
column
has
already
warned,
a
long
and
costly
one.
The
news
may
not,
as
in
Europe,
always
be
pleasant.
For
the
enemy
realizes
the
truth
of
Admiral
Mahan's
theory
of
naval
warfare1,
that
it
is
best
to
deal
the
enemy
a
crushing
blow
far
from
one's
homeland.
And
the
enemy
knows
that
his
entire
southern
Pacific
empire
will
crumble
away
from
him
if
the
Americans
seize
and
consolidate
their
hold
on
the
Phili-

finds-
himself
at
the
.top
of
the
career
ladder
facing
one
of
the
toujhest
tasks
a
naval
tactician
ever
had.
In
the
war
against
Japan
he
will
be
up
against
an
enemy
who
will
be
using
the
pricks
he
himself
employed
to
keep
the
Mediterranean
open
against
the
Axis
fleets.
He
knews
only
too
well
that
although
the
combined
Allied
fleets
ou
weigh
the
Japanese
force,
an
inferior
fleet
can
make
life
miserable,
even
disastrous,
for
a
superior
one.
He

In
the

when
he
was
commander-in-chief
of
that
troubled
stretch
ol
water,
he'
pat
to
sea
with
two
battleships,
one
carrier,
five
cruisers
and
a
fleet
of
destroyers
with
orders
to
bottle
up
the
big
Italian
fleet.
As
the
war
developed
and
his
looses
mounted
his
numerical
inferiority
became
ludicrous.
At
(in
time
his
force
consisted
of
three
cruisers
and
one
fighter
I
pilot,
and
another
story
told
of
the
admiral
is
that
when
he
was
presented
with
the
K.C.B.
Cunningham
remarked
wryly,
"I
wish
they
had
.liven
me

squadrons
of
Hurricanes
Instead."
Skilful
and

But
by
combining
skill,
bluff,
audacity
and
courage
he
won
his
fight.
And
the
climax
came
the
day
he
received
the
surrender
of
the
Italian
fleet
antl
wrote
that
famous
dispatch

"Be

So
it
may
be
seen
that

only
too
well

can
be

with

It

It
follows,
then,
that
all

be
lopped
off

But
Cunningham
has
never

it
may
well
be
that
the
