RECALL the way the Jap high' command sent relief expedi- tion after relief expedition back to Guadalcanal and New Guinea to be blasted time after time IN THE SAMfi WAY by our ships and planes. . It agrees exactly with tills serv ice man's story. THESE tales aren't al gruc- some. For example: ' 1 .

A moment later the Jap planes came roaring over. I made a dive for a piece of slit trench that was just a little longer than I was ' about two seconds later another guy landed on top of me. I said to him: 'Say, bud, you'd belter hunt yourself another hole. You're sticking up about four inches and you're likely to get hurt.'

They carried me back to the field hospital and started picking the shell splinters out of me. They weren't using an anaesthetic, and I was cussing them. I didn't mean to do It. It was kind of like I was another guy standing off to one side. He'd keep cussing the doctors and I'd seem to try to shut him off. "They told me: 'We've got lo operate on your eye tomorrow and we can't keep you all filled up with hop.' So they went on picking out the splinters and I went on hollering trying my damndest not lo but all the time 11 was the guy standing olf lo one side that was doing the hol lering and I was Hying to shut him up.

By Charles (JOW much space does a newspaper give away? " We must confess we didn't have th answer to that qucj'.'on until we took a ruler and spent about cij,'ht hours on a holiday BoinR through the files and making a record. fhe average newspaper is furnish publicity space for one thing or another. Since pre parations for war starred, and particularly since Pearl Harbor, the demand has been increasing steadily. More and more fed eral agencies are furnishing propaganda, publicity and infor mational material, sponsored display advertising copy and other matter designed for publication. Newspapers are urged to devote news space to a constantly increasing volume of gov ernment releases. They are urged to contact merchants to se cure sponsorship of display advertising copy prepared to. aid the war effort. Some small conception of the picture may be gained from a few figures pertaining to the columns of the News-Review since Pearl Harbor. The News-Review, for instance, has printed 2494 inches of publicity urging the public to buy war bonds. At advertising rates this space would have had a value of $997.60. Miscellaneous releases published on behalf of the OVA, OWI, manpower commission and others, all relating to phases of the war or home production efforts, amounted to 2513 inches with a value of $1,005.90. . Prior to Pearl Harbor we furnished a great deal of space to the recruiting service. The demand, obviously, has dropped off since recruiting has been limited by selective service. How ever, since Pearl Harbor, we have carried 470 inches of recruit ing "plugs," or $188 worth if The American Red Cross has been given 610 inches, the equivalent of nearly four full pages, worth $244. The Aircraft Warning service, like the recruiting service, has had less publicity since Pearl Harbor than before, but since that fateful date, the News-Review has devoted 368 inches of free space to the AWS, representing $147.20. A total of 1007 inches, worth $402.80, was devoted to sal vage campaigns, in connection with the collections of rubber and scrap metal. Altogclher since Pearl Harbor the space given by the News Kcview to the various war activities would total more than 46 full pages. During that time the local activities have not been neglected. Civilian defense, civic clubs, membership drives, financial solici tations, etc., hufc had "build up" campaigns and publicity 'nat mteiui date, the iNews-tevcw nas cievotcu joo incncs orc" ( cuiicu free space to the AWS. representing $ I 47.20. i "" L!rS!SE!E Sj!
