Watch Jimmy go! He's mighty fleet on his feet. And you can just bet that he'll win first prize in this race, Some day Jimmy will grow up and get married. Then he'll discover that one of the prizes he wants most to win is financial security for his family. But he'll be able to win this prize "before the race is run" with life insurance. For, you see, the full protection of life insurance begins the moment you make your first premium payment. And those premiums can help you win some of the "prizes" that savings provide — such as a college education for the youngsters or a new home. - Nowadays the savings you can make with life insurance are more important than ever. For, like all savings, they help to check inflation. And, because they are long term savings, their inflation-checking power is all the greater. So keep up your premium pay- ments.

In the Wes- tern Desert he almost immediately became a figure of awe, pot only to his own troops, but also to the men of the Eighth Army; so much was this the case that General Auchin- leek thought it necessary to issue an Order of the Day in which he called upon all commanders to counter the growth of a Rommel legend and "not always to talk of Rommel when we mean the enemy." Brigadier Desmond Young, haying himself been one of Ronunel's victims, decided to trace the stpry of the man and to examine the sources of the legend. In the pursuit of his investi- gations he has collected ,much mater- ial of first-class importance; trona a variety of sources he .has comPosed a clear and convincing portrait of one of the most brilliant personalities of the war and at the same time he has thrown light upon one of its s£ran- gest and most sinister mysteries— Rommel's implicatibri in the Hitler plot, and his death. ' What begins as a straightforward account of Rommel's youth and of his career as a dashing subaltern, in World War I, ends in Roman trag- edy, with a touch of modern- Chicago. Rommel, like many regular officers of the German Army, began by ad- miring Hitler, hating only those who surrounded, and, as he thought, mis- informed and deceived him; gradual- ly he came. to recognize Hitler's true nature and to realize that rather than admit his own failure, he would bring all Germany down in ruins with him; torn between two loyalties Rommel chose loyalty to the true in- terests of his country. There are many fascinating aspects to this book, but not the least must be the chance it affords us to see the picure from the other side, to realize how often and how near Rommel himself was to disaster, even to sur- render; how he was starved both of supplies and reinforcements and, above all, of recognition of the pot- ential importance of his command. For while Egypt was paramount to the British as the only battlefield on which we were in contact with the enemy, to Hitler and the German High Command, with eyes fixed on Russia, it•remained a sideshow. Rom- mel was sent to Libya to halt Wav- ell's advaice towards Tripoli; his bid to Capture Alexandria and his vision of reaching the Caucasus 'across Pal- estine, Syria, Iraq and Iran, was his own and in complete defiante of his orders. For the British the Rommel legend had another basis. In a war whose origins were rooted in beastliness and which the Western Allies regard- ed largely as a war against beastli- ness, it was perhaps something of a surprise to find ourselves up against an enemy who seemed prepared to respect certain rules of warfare and to fight clean—who seemed even to have an attitude to war which the British soldier could understand and share. Brigadier Young shows how very quick Rommel was to react to what he considered rough fighting on the British side as well as to any lapses from correct conduct on the part of his own troops, the S. S. or the Italians. He believed in chivalry, and practised It. The Rommel who emerges from Brigadier Young's book is a profess- ional soldier, who fought for his country with single-minded if some- what narrow purpose and who was incapable of comprehending or of stomaching the chicanery of Hitler and his sycophants, each With his private army and his private ambit- ions; a man of iron will, iron nerve and iron physique, with fantastic powers of endurance, and yet not lacking the common touch; a man who, as Brigadier Young says, might have been one of Nelson's captains. Perhaps the Afrika Korps and the Eighth Army were not so far wrong in looking upon him as something of a hero. E. WAIVANOSH NAMES BENRAYE BD.
