I'd like better now than to be a
painter of pictures, or a sketch
artist. True, I would paint or
sketch sombre pictures, but I
have seen many sombre aspects
of war in the last two and a half
years and an artist is more or
less governed by his environ-
ment and emotional make-up.

BURIED ALIVE

Id like to draw a picture of
a scene I witnessed in: Brighton,
England, nearly two years ago.
Jerry “hit, murder and run’ planes
had just paid us a visit and a
buneh of us from my company
had gone to one of the piles of
debris to help dig out survivors
of German Kultur. The scene I’d
like to reproduce was a dramatic
one. A sound detector was placed
on a pile of rubble, with a rub-
ber cord running to a control
lorry. Grimy soldiers and rescue
workers, tired after hours of
digging out injured people, bits
of human flesh and two live
hens, stood on the road in awed
silence. A few civilians and two
policemen were in the crowd. A
solemn English voice warned us,

I am 31 years old now, and sometimes
when I look back and think of the things I might have done. At various times and stages
I wanted to be a criminal lawyer, journalist, advertising salesman, soldier in the Prench

“Please maintain absolute sil-
ense. We are trying to contact
Mr... .” You could have heard
a@ pin drop. Then came the mes-
sage to the man they were try-
ing to reach. “Hello, hello, this
is rescue calling! Are you there?
Take a brick, or some heavy ob-
ject and tap like this — three

times. Or say Ah, ah! Are you
there? louder, please!” We
found him a bit later, stone

dead, and I forced myself to look
at him as he was carried away.
He was the first victim of Nazi
warfare that IT had seen.

BUZZ BOMBS j

Then I might draw a picture
of Hast Croyden railway station
on the out skirts of London dur-
ing the early part ofthe buzz
bomb warfare against civilians.
Trains were arriving and leay-
ing from long platforms every
few minutes.

iA calm female voice was
heard over the loud speaker sys-
tem: “‘Attention please. Hostile
aircraft have been reported ap-
proaching the London area.’ A
moment later we heard the siren,
then the drone of a buzz bomb.
No one ran for shelter. A few
looked in the direction the robot
was coming from. Then it was

overhead and beyond us. A few.
Moments later the motor cut
dead. Then came the explosion.

I’d like to draw that scene at
East Croydon station, with the
buzz bomb overhead and a calm
female announcer in one corner
warning the people.

A typical London workingman
would be looking up and saying:
“Gor blimey! I hope it doesn’&
land on the track. Me missus will
kind of be mad if I come home
late again. She’ll swear I was
drinking!”

CONSECRATED GROUND

Then there was the old lady in
black I saw in Holland. She was
looking through the twisted,
broken iron fence of a church
graveyard. In the background
stood what was left of the
church, a broken, gutted shell of
what was once a fine, imposing
building. Ornate erosses, broken
and unbroken were strewn about
the graveyard that was pitted
with mortar and~ shell holes.
Several coffins and a few bones
lay exposed. In all countries, the
country graveyard has many at-
tractions for the aged, for there
lie many of their refations and
friends, and there they expect to
join them soon. For the religious,
this is consecrated ground. Here
it is that the last rites are per-
formed. I’d like to title the paint-
ing: “The Nazis were foreed to
retreat from town of X.” A man
ean dream, can’t he, and find new
inspiration to carry on?
