C, ' there stands the marble tomb erected to the memory of the Un known Soldier. A guard or honor maintains unceasing vigil before that monument through which a nation pays tribute to its heroic dead. In every veterans cemetery t throughout the land there is a tablet, a shaft or a- tomb, en- i graved to the memory of the un known soldier. You, too, can have your monu ment to the unknown soldier. It will not be a handsome monu ment. It may not even be in one piece. It may be disreputable In ' appearance, covered with rust and dirt, but, nevertheless In your uttic, your basement, your garage, . your yard, your barn, or your i field, you may have. If you wish, your own personal monument for j some unknown boy who will die a J hero's death upon a distant field, j Your monument may be that : old metal bedstead, that broken j down kitchen range, the old plow or harrow, or even the countless ' pieces of scrap metal Junk which you have been too negligent, too tareless or Just too plain lazy to put into the scrap metal salvage campaign. Perhaps the boy your own par ticular monument will symbolize will be the one who with desper ate fury charges an enemy with cold steel, because he has fjred all his ammunition and no more is available. Maybe it will be the boy who makes his body a barrier to enemy advance, because there was no lank to help him' in his task. Possibly it will be (he boy who dies In screaming agony from the shrapnel ot bursting bombs, dropped from the? starry sky by an enemy against whom there, was no defense because there was not the needed metal to build a fighter plane. - In the years to come that old piece of metal for which you have no present use should he deeply revered in your home. It will be your own personal monument to the boy who died because uf your neglect. It will symbolize to you the Hie blood of a hero who made the supreme sacrifice because you made none.

Nelson to Limit Priority Aid to Federal Projects WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 (AP) Chairman Donald M. Nelson ot the war production board an nounced today he would limit government construction to pro jects "directly essential" to the war effort. Nelson notified the heads of eight governmental agencies that he had given Instructions to re voke priority assistance to a large part of. non-military con struction for the federal govern ment, and said a review now was under way of all military pro jects of the army, navy, and mari time commission, with the same end In view. "As things now stand," Nelson said, "facilities and construction. Including many projects not re lated to the war effort, and pro grams for 1943, with the carry over of uncompleted 1942 projects will absorb between one-fifth ana one-fourth of the total war effort. He added that the aggregate demand for these projects for materials, labor, transportation, manpower, and technical and en gineering services, "is so great as to not only Jeopardize the various military and essential civilian programs in general, but to force the most essential war projeels dangerously behind schedule." Nelson was represented as having told legislators that the nation's production schedule for 194.1 was becoming too big to be met with the materials that were likely to be available. It was his intention, ne was Quoted as saying, to see to it that the vital parts ot the war machine the tanks, planesi guns, ship and ol her equipment came along I as fast as humanly possible. j This probably would Involve, It was said, a reclassification of the whole program, with priorities on raw materials adjusted so they would flow unhampered into the plants that were making the pri mary war equipment. After this demand had been made, less essential Items would take their place in the materials line, witn civilian nceus ii-icga-. ted to the third group where pro-1 duel loll would have to be geared to whatever supplies were left.

The Illinois charges include j Kadens' bungling attempt to rob a west side currency exchange I yesterday and an accusation that I he attacked a 17-year-old girl. Kadens' wife, jeanctte, a small, thin woman of 27, who allowed , him to enlist in the army and I then look over the double duty of mother and breadwinner, went to see the prisoner. Kadens. how ever, retreated to a dark corner of his cell, turned his back anil said: "I want only to see my kids. I don't want to see my wife or any one else Just the kids." Mrs. Kadens shed a few tears and left the lockup, announcing she would not bring the two daughters - two and five years old- to visit her husband. Kadens was placed under a police guard anil his bell and shop laces were removed as a precau tion against any attempt at sui- I cide. Before she was snubbed by her husband. Mrs. Kadens had said: "1 can't see him as anything bad, because I never knew him as bad . . . He used to do a thousand good things tor us every day . . . I can't believe these things are true . . .

Concerning the NORTHWEST As Viewed at the National Capital By Paul Dunham WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 21. E n e m y submarines, unques tionably Japanese, are becoming Increasingly bold ot the coast of Oregon and Washington. Censor ship has suppressed many details ot the activities ot the under-seas boats, but of late the bars have been lowered a little and more Information has been made available to the public through the press. Since a few days after Pearl harbor the Japanese have been operating off the northwest states, British Columbia and Alas ka with their submarines. They know that coastal area like a book; in the days when the Maru ships were a large part of wqst coast commerce the skippers rare ly had recourse to pilots they sailed in their ships themselves. The submarines have traveled at will, despite the dawn patrol of shore-based interceptor planes or the sharp eyes of volunteer watchers on the beach. As yet the navy has not seen fit to in form the public whether any sub marines have been destroyed (if any were sunk) south of Kiska. Communiques have declared vari ous Japanese subs have been sent to Davy Jones' locker in the Aleu tian area. That the armed forces are aware of the presence of enemy U-boats is intimated by the tightening up of the dim-out regu lations and more recently by directives to eliminate sky-glare. There is dissatisfaction with t he navy censorship. The Bremer-ton-built heavy cruiser Astoria was sent to the bottom on Aug ust 9 with two other heavy Ameri can cruisers, but the navy sup pressed news of the loss for more than two months. In the same en gagement the Australian cruiser Canberra was sunk but the Aus tralian government lost no time in making the announcement. More than quarter of a year lap sed before the people were told that the carrier Yorktown had been wiped out by the Japanese. No admission has yet been made that cargo boats in convoy to Murmansk were destroyed, al though German radio claimed complete destruction; navy mere ly said the Germans were exag gerating. Navy, it will be recalled, declared there were no Japanese in the Aleutians when the Tokyo radio had already asserted that the little brown men were at Kis ka. The policy of censorship needs workinc over, revamping and placing some confidence in the good judgement of the American people. Wages For Boys Eyed Drafting of the 'teen aged youths will present another prob lem for employers in the north west. It will mean that employ ers of seasonable labor will have to reach down to hire boys 15 and 10 years old practically high school youngsters. This past sum mer the 18 and 19-year old boys were employed, but employers de clare Ihat few of them took their job seriously and they would sky lark around, with apparently no sense of responsibility or apprecia tion that there is a war in prog ress and that everyone has a part in the conflict. If the 18-19 group could not buckle down to work, employers say that the lG-17-year olds will be even more irresponsi ble. There shoidd be some re adjustment of wages, say the em ployers. In the work the past summer tho youths were paid the same wage as the older, exper ienced men. The older men, those above draft age, performed twice the amount of work done by the bovs and the knowledge that 26 2Za ISUti I - 4k BEER Distributed they were paid the same rate as the youngsters caused dissatis faction. The employers explain that they were paying the boys too much; that they should not be given the same pay as the old er men, for they did not or would not do the same amount of work. The wage-hour law governs the pay in seasonal occupations, how ever, and therefore all engaged in a particular industry receive identical wage. Paying 18-year old lads $6.50 a day is, contend the bosses, foolish, as too much mon ey is not good for them. Unless there is some sort of adjustment the 15 and 16-year olds will be drawing the same high wage next year, and doing even less work for the money than did the 18-19 group of the current year. Sug gestion is made that boys be paid 10 or 20 cents less per hour in 1943, but if they work the full season a bonus be given that will equal the regular rate. This sug gestion is prompted by the habit of the boys quitting after a few days and they have accumulated a few dollars. Here's Right Way To Care for Deer CORVALLIS, Oct. 21 (API Make big game hunting this year contribute to the meat supply as well as to sport, Lucy Case and H. A. Lindgren, extension special ists in nutrition and animal hus bandry, respectively, at O. S. C, suggest. Unless care is taken much meat is wasted by poor handling. Here are their suggestions for "bring 'em back dead but fit to eat." Go prepared to dress the animal in the woods. First steps in dres sing are, remove testicles, bleed the animal with head down hill, then remove glands on Inside of hocks, to prevent off flavor in the meat. Next remove entrails. As soon as the carcass is back at camp skin it to hasten cooling. If weather is cool It can remain in camp several days; otherwise rush it to cold storage within a day, unless you have the taste of an Eskimo. In camp protect the carcass from flies with sacking, except at night, then quarter it for hauling home taking care not to put it In the hottest part of the car. Elevator Crash Dumps Grain on U. P.

"'O by Douglat Distributing LETTERS to the Editor MEASURES ON BALLOT SHOULD BE EXPLAINED Editor News-Review: It has been my Intention to call a meet ing of the Douglas County Tax payers league, to advise some way to get the voters of Douglas coun ty to read and study the voters' pamphlet, sent to them by the secretary of state, so thijt they can vote more intelligently on the several proposed new laws and constitutional amendments which will be on the ballot November 3rd; but owing to the busy times and thin tires, I think it best if someone in each town or com munity would take it upon him self and call a public meeting and have someone who is competent explain the purport of each new bill and amendment to be voted on. It seems a waste of time and money for the state to print and mail a copy of the voters' pam phlet to each voter and then see at least fifty per cent of them thrown In the waste basket, and then have a, voter tell you he vot ed "No," on all the amendments and etc., because he did not un derstand them. The right to have a part in en acting our laws and amending our constitution is a wonderful thing for us common people, but if we do not prepare ourselves so we may act intelligently, it be comes a boomerang.
