; To the Unknown Soldier
' IN the great national cemetery
' at Arlington, Virginia, across
,' the river from Washington, D. 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.
"Z "Whose boy will die because
' you failed?"- C. V. S.

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

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

After this demand had been
made, less essential Items would

To See His Wife
CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-IAP-I
The state ot Illinois chose two
charges of armed robbery and
one of rape today to start lis
prosecution of Irwin Kadens, the
army deserter whose spectacular
criminal career ended with an un
successful holdup yesterday.
Assistant Stale's Attorney Fran
cis McCurrie said he would ask
the Cook county grand jury to
, vote indictments on these charges.
. Ho explained that although the;
i slate was proceeding with those
! charges first it did not necessar
1 lly mean that Kadens would be
, tried on them first,
i The federal government is still
considering what charges it can
I lodge against him, McCurrie said.
and federal Indictments may fol

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

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

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

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.

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. Respectfully
yours,
H. P. RICE,
President, Douglas County Tax
