The Score Card: Consumers
can do a lot in stamping out the
illegal sale of meat by making
sure that all meat they buy comes
from a carcass which carries the
necessary stamps — the permit
number of the slaughterer and a
grade stamp.
Ceiling prices are in effect in
many areas for meat. They are
posted by the butcher near meat
counters and you can consult
them when buying your meat.

! “Of course there were all kinds of
rumors — that Zamboanga and
Davao, down in the southern archi-
pelago, had been taken. Also that
our navy patrol planes had gone up
- to Northern Luzon to intercept Jap
transports gathering off Aparri
there. We even heard our aircraft
tenders had been surprised and tak-
en, but that one proved false. Yet
that morning, nothing was sure.

from Squadron Commander Bulko.
ley to send three boats, under my
command, over to Mariveles on Ba-
taan and report to the submarine
tender there for food, water, and
torpedoes, and to remain on the
ready—available to go out and at-
tack anything he ordered us to. By
five o’clock we cast off. We had
some passengers to deliver at Cor-
regidor, so it was eight and plenty
dark before we were outside the
mine fields, feeling our way into
Mariveles. We thought we knew
those mine fields, but in pitch-dark-
ness, with the mine-field lights
turned off and of course no lights
on our boats now, it was something
else again.
“At this point the army took over.
They heard the roar of our motors
and thought it was Jap planes.
Searchlights began winking on all
over Bataan, feeling up into the sky
for planes—our motors were echoing
against the mountains on Bataan,
so they couldn’t tell where the noise
was coming from. Every artillery
post for twenty-six kilometers around
went on the alert, and for a few
minutes it was a question whether
we were going to be blown to hell
by a mine or by one of our own
shore batteries.

“You don’t understand,” said the
voung naval officer, “we were ex-
pendable.” He was very earnest as
he lolled on the bunk in the officers’
quarters of the torpedo station at
Newport, along with the other three
officers who had also just got out of
the Philippines.
. I admitted I didn’t understand.
P “Well, it’s like this. Suppose
fl you’re a sergeant machine-gunner,
“ and your army is retreating and
the enemy advancing. The captain
takes you to a machine gun covering
the road. ’You’re to stay here and
hold this position,’ he tells you. ‘For
how long?’ you ask. 'Never mind,’
he answers, ‘just hold it.’ Then you
know you’re expendable. In a war,
anything can be expendable—money
or gasoline or equipment or most
usually men. They are expending
you and that machine gun to get
time. They don’t expect to see ei-
thgnone again. They expect you to
Ithere and spray that zoad with
muntil you’re killed or captured,
holding up the enemy for a few min-
utes or even a precious quarter of
an hour.
“You know the situation—that
those few minutes gained are worth
the life of a man to your army. So
you don’t mind it until you come
back here where people waste hours
and days and sometimes weeks,
when you’ve seen your friends give
lives to save minutes—”
"Look, never mind about that,”
said Lieutenant John Bulkeley, the
senior officer. “People don’t like to
hear about that. I’ve learned that
in the week I’ve been back. Let’s
each side. As for armor.

as we did, and of course didn’t want
war.
But now for a little geography.
Here s Manila Bay—a big beautiful
harbor twenty miles across. At the
far end is the city of Manila, and if
you were suddenly put down there,
you’d think you were in Los Angeles’
until you noticed the faces of the
people. At the mouth of Manila Bay,
the upper lip is Bataan Peninsula
and the lower one is Batangas, with
the Rock—Corregidor Island—a hard
little pill between the two lips. And
we are stationed at Cavite, the big
American naval base on the lower
side of the bay, about halfway be-
tween Manila and the, harbor’s
mouth.
“We’re under orders of Admiral
Hart, who is Commander in Chief
of the Far Eastern fleet, based
there. Only how long will we stay?
Because as war drew close, rumors
began to fly. If it came soon, we
might be getting out because we
didn’t have air superiority. The Japs
could run down from Formosa and
bag our little Asiatic fleet, so maybe
we’d be pulling out for the southern
islands, waiting for aircraft carriers
which would bring fighters to pro-
tect us.
31)
time we tangled with the Japs one of
our machine-gunners kept crouching
down behind the shield which rose
just under the noses of his guns.
When it was over we asked him
why he hadn’t stood up to fire.
“ ‘Hell,’ he said, ‘I didn’t want to
get nicked. I was crouching down
behind that armor.’ Then we had to
tell him that shield was %-inch ply-
wood-keeps spray out of your eyes,
but it can’t stop anything the Japs
might send. There isn’t an ounce of
armor steel on the boat—we’re little
eggshells, designed to roar in, let
fly a Sunday punch, and then get the
hell out, zigging to dodge the shells
—but again I’m getting ahead.
“We went out to the islands last
fall. I was commanding officer of
the squadron—I’d picked every offi-
cer and man in the outfit from vol-
unteers—told them we were heading
for trouble. So they piled us and our
six boats on a tanker. In late sum-

This story was told me largely in
the officers’ quarters of the Motor Tor-
pedo Boat station at Melville, Rhode
Island, by four young officers of MTB
Squadren 3, who were all that was
left of the squadron which proudly
sailed for the Philippines last sum-
mer. A fifth officer, Lieutenant Hen-
ry J. Brantingham, has since ar-
rived from Australia.
These men had been singled out
from the multitude for return to
America because General MacArthur
believed that the MTB’s had proved
their worth in warfare, and hoped
that these officers could bring back
to America their actual battle expe-
rience, by which trainees could bene-
fit.
Their Squadron Commander, Lieu-
tenant John Bulkeley (now Lieuten-
ant-Commander) of course needs no
introduction, as he is already a na-
tional hero for his part in bringing
MacArthur out of Bataan. But be-
complacent citizens always choose
from the newsstands those papers
whose headlines proclaim every skir-
mish as a magnificent victory.
A And through those plump cities the
{ ■ sad young men back from battle
-wander as strangers in a strange
land, talking a grim language of real-
ism which the smug citizenry doesn’t
understand, trying to tell of a tragedy
which few enjoy hearing.
These four sad young men differ
from those I have talked to in Eu-
rope only in that they are Americans,

“I saw the first planes about noon
flying out over the bay. At first I
thought they were ours, but after
about a minute our shore batteries
opened up. They were coming over
at 20,000 and of course immediately
we shoved all our boats off and
out into the bay. But we heard noth-
ing drop. It was probably just a

word about us.
“We four are what is left of Motor
Torpedo Boat Squadron three. Last
fall there were six little boats—and
about a dozen men to a boat. Each
one is a plywood speedboat, seventy

ered by three Packard motors which
can send her roaring over the top
of the water about as fast as a Pack-
ard automobile ever gets a chance to
travel on a highway. So fast, in
fact, that those motors have to be
changed every few hundred hours.

“The message said I was to come
on down to the Commandantia,”
continued Bulkeley. “It’s an old
thick-walled Spanish building, and
when I got there, Admiral Rock-
well, who was in command at Ca-
vite, and Captain Ray, his chief of
staff, were already dressed. Dawn
was just beginning to break over
Manila Bay, and the Admiral was
watching the sky. ‘They ought to
be here any minute,’ he said. And
then he told me to prepare my six .
boats for war stations. They were
going to send us over to Bataan at
the naval base in Mariveles Harbor,
just opposite Corregidor.”
“I was prepared for the war,” said
Kelly, the squadron’s second in com-
mand, a tall blond lieutenant with
quick blue eyes. “I’d heard about
We are to bear in mind that it is
not some “strange thing” which has
happened; we who suffer as Chris-
tians are “partakers of Christ’s suf-
ferings.” Joy and glory are ahead.
HI. Do Not Be Ashamed—You
Suffer for Christ (4:14-16).
Sadness and depression rest upon
the one who suffers for his own evil
deeds, but those who suffer for
Christ’s sake may be ever rejoicing.
Can you not see that “the spirit of
glory and the Spirit of God” are
resting (v. 14) even now on some
who sit in prisons and concentra-
tion camps? What a glorious pic-
ture of His grace!
It is proper to observe here that
the believer. is not to be guilty of
that which justly brings the law’s
condemnation (v. 15). Do not fail to
note the last of the list of crimes—
“meddler in other men’s matters.”
Has not just that caused endless
trouble in the church, and harmed
its testimony before the world?
Let’s quit meddling!
IV. Do Not Worry—He Careth for
You (5:6, 7).
Worry! Worry! How it does crowd
itself into our thinking. Yes, we
know we are Christians, that we are
unjustly accused or persecuted, that
we are suffering for Christ’s sake.
That’s all true, but how is it all com-
ing out? What about my family?
Will they harm my children? If I
do survive will I be able to start life
anew? And so on—questions with-
out end; and soon comes the corrod-
ing touch of worry.
What shall we do? The answer is
plain. Cast all your care on Christ
—“He careth for you” (v. 7). That
takes an act of faith just as it does
to become a Christian in the first
place, but it works.
The cure for all anxiety is right
there but it can only be reached
by the path of humility. "Humble
yourselves” (v. 6). There is the
gateway to comfort, and to true
exaltation in God’s own good time
(cf. Jas. 6:4-10).
V. Do Not Waver—God Is Your
Strength (5:8-10).
Steady, perfected, established in
Christ, sure of his eternal destiny
and with the eyes of faith seeing the
glory to come—such is the man who
is ready and able to meet the devil
when, like a roaring lion, he seeks
to disturb and devour God’s people.
The believer should be ready and
equipped.

Creamed Deviled Eggs.
(Serves 4)
4 hard-cooked eggs
1% teaspoons vinegar
% teaspoon dry mustard
% teaspoon salt
% teaspoon pepper
% teaspoon sugar
1% tablespoons melted butter
% teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup white sauce
Cut eggs lengthwise into halves.
Combine egg yolks with next seven
ingredients. Beat together until well
blended and smooth. Fill whites
with yolk mixture, place in baking
dish and cover with white sauce.
Bake in a moderate (350-degree)
lowed for bread and rolls. No
more leftover bread or rolls can
be returned to the baker, nor can
there be any fancy racks for dis-
playing bread.
Retail bakers are limited to 15
varieties of bread and nine va-
rieties of rolls in one week. Many
of these measures are designed to
keep bread prices down.
Although outwardly, bread
trimmings have been stripped,
the insides are better. All white
bread must now be enriched.
Each loaf of white bread must
contain not less than three parts
nor more than four parts of milk
solids to 100 parts of flour.

That does not mean that the Chris-
tian sits with his hands folded wait-
ing in a fatalistic way for the in-
evitable to happen. Never! He is “on
the alert” with his spiritual ears at-
tuned to hear the approach of the
enemy s bombers.” He is "sober
and watchful ’ against the "roaring
lion” (v. 8).
Satan is unusually busy in our
day. Alert Christian people see his
deadly onslaughts on their breth-
ren, which are possibly more severe
now than for many years. He is
seeking to break them down physi-
cally , mentally and spiritually, to
make them fearful, to make them
timid about work for Christ, to limit
their usefulness, and to steal from
them their victorious assurance. He
is busy—let us be alert against him.

(Serves 6)
2 cups canned peaches, fresh
rhubarb or apples
2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon butter
% cup melted shortening
% cup brown sugar
% cup sifted flour
% teaspoon salt
% teaspoon soda
% cup quick-cooking oatmeal

Arrange fruit in shallow, greased

juice and cinnamon and dot with
butter. Combine melted shortening
and brown sugar. Sift flour, salt
and soda together and mix the oat-
meal. Blend in sugar mixture,
crumbling well, then add vanilla.’
Spread over fruit and bake for 45
minutes in a 350-degree oven.
Serve warm with pudding sauce or

“But finally we snaked through,
tied up alongside our sub tender,
and then its skipper delivered a
piece of nasty news. Told us he
had orders to get under way just
before daylight, out to sea—didn’t
know just where they were sending
him—maybe south, maybe the Dutch
East Indies, anyway, he wouldn’t
be back.
“So then the fun began. There
we were—no base, rations for only
ten days, and a big problem in how
we were to live ourselves and what
in hell we would do with the boats
when the planes came over. In ad-
dition to which, we were almost flat
out of gas, and what would we do
for fuel to fight this war?
Pretty soon we began finding
some of the answers. For instance
just around the coast from Mari-
veles in Sisiman Cove was a native
village— practically abandoned ex-
cept for a few families—about twen-
ty nipa huts in all. We moved in
and took over. A nipa hut is a lit-
tle contraption—single room with
thatched roof and sides—up off the
ground four or five feet on bamboo
stilts. Under it the natives keep
their pigs and chickens. The floor is
split bamboo, and never very tight,
so the crumbs and small pieces of
garbage dropped on it can sift down
into the pigs and chickens. In one

I. Do Not Be Afraid—Christ Is
- Lord (3:13-17).
By doing good the Christian will
escape much suffering (v. 13), but
if even then it comes, he is not to
be afraid (v. 14). He is to sanctify
Christ in his heart, that is, fully
recognize the holiness of Christ and
all that He is and can do for him.
This is to be done in his heart. That
means the exercise of full faith in
Christ the Lord as the indwelling
Presence. Who then can be afraid?
Note that this is not just a sub-
jective spiritual exercise for his own
enjoyment—it will show in his “good
manner of life in Christ” which will
put his persecutors “to shame” (v.
16). How effectively that has worked
only recently in Germany, Norway
and elsewhere.
II. Do Not Be Surprised—the En-
emy Will Attack (4:12, 13).
Surprise attack is effective. Re-
member Pearl Harbor! Satan is an ]
expert in strategy, and is eager to
keep Christians in an easy and com-
fortable mood, so that he may strike
a vicious blow when it is not ex-
pected. We best prepare to meet
him when we recognize that perse-
cution and suffering will come.

mer, we snuck through the Panama
Canal one night, and were steaming
up Manila Bay in the early fall.
“On my way back here last week,
I had a few hours in Honolulu, and
the boys were still talking about
how they’d been surprised on De-
cember 7. I don’t know why they
should have been, because they got
the same warning we did in Manila.
That war was maybe days, perhaps
even only hours, away. The only
thing that surprised us was that it
was Pearl Harbor that got the first
attack, not us.
“We’d been following the negotia-
tions. We knew we needed sixty
more days to put the islands in
shape for decent defense. We need-
ed planes and tanks. Most impor-
tant of all, at least half the Filipino
army had never had a uniform on

started. They needed training, and
