WITH the battle of Armageddon Just around the corner, with uncounted hundreds or thousands of men living their last days on earth as they avvuVt Its opening, with fcVEItVTHlNG VE PRIZE ON EARTH at stake When the .fateful dice begin to roll, the foremen's Union In Detroit, our greatest single workshop of war, went ON STRIKE. (Thct-e were 3300 striking foremen and be cause ot tneir kEY stoppage ol work 50,000 trien wore made Idle.) GENERAL ARNOLD, head of our air forces, testifying be fore the War Labor board in Washington, says: "The Detroit foremen's strike is one of the most serious set backs tlio air force hns had since Its Inception.1 If .continued, It might enable the German air force to RECOVER Just when It Is reeling under our blows It might cause Us to change bur time-table for destruction of criti cal Industries In Germany and might cost the lives of bombing crew through lack of fighter plane protection." , '. He adds: "We of the military forees are not interested in the relative merits of the dispute, but H Is inconceivable from ouv point or view how you can have strikes which slop War production ' on materials which are so essential they may EVEN , STOP OPERA TIONS In connection, with the bombings In Germany." THIS troubled, mcsscd-up, never too -admirable home front of ours! How are We who have stay ed at home and given none too good an account of our steward ship to face our fighting sons when they come back. . (Those of them who DO come back.) THE Chinese continue to cover themselves with glory (and death) in Yunnan anil Honan provinces. , The 20,000 of them who crossed the Salween In Yunnan are still pushing westward, climbing high mountain ridges -and plunging down Into the alternate deep can yons, In a heroic effort to link up w'llh General Slllwell and make possible the opening of a new Hurma road that will enable us to gel In heavy equipment lo en able the Chinese to fight their way down to the coast of the China sea to Join the forces our navy will attempt to push through to save China as a fight ing ground from which we can flniilly move lo destroy Japan. In Honah, still fighting with not much more than their bare hands, they have puhid back and OUR DUTY TO G. I. JOE By Charles V. Stanto Jhe nation's responsibility to the returning soldier does not end with payment of a bonus and provision for a job, Major General G. B. Chisholm, director general of Can ada's rtiedical services, told the Ariierican Psychiatric asso ciation at a theetihg in Philadelphia this week. The General's theory, we believe, is deserving of most serious thought and studied action, but will require reversal from many current trends, , "For some years," the General said, "the soldier will have been accustomed to regarding himself as Important, as a great asset tb his country and highly yalued by his associ ates. This was hot true of a very large number of young men immediately preceding this war, , "The most damaging thing tliat cduld hilplien id the returned soldier and to the community would be for him to find himself hot wanted and not regarded as a valuable asset lo his community. "Tb give hlhi money or even to provide him with a stop gap Job will fall far short of these requirements. In order for hlhi to become a useful citizen it is very necessary that his own Individual value to the community should obviously remain very high, this will require very careful planning and serious Implementation." The General warned that if these demands are not met the soldiers will Withdraw into groups and feel themselves in cdhfllct with civilians. Particularly, he declared, these re- lui'iiitig soldiers will demand certain ideals, which will require civilians to show "unselfish devotion to tho good of the group1, willing self-sacrifice and the ability to be depend ent oh, and hot to take advantage of one's own people." General Chisholm, in other returning soldier expects to play on the home team and that he expects teamwork on the part of players. He is not to be content with a spectator status, a team that fumbles the ball and misses its signals. If the ) home team can't pliiy ball, he'll organize his own team ' a team that has been trained in teamwork and coordination I of effort. The soldier has been thoroughly indoctrinated in obe-j dieiice tb discipline, accustomed to a form of life in which i existence itself depends upon every man performing his duty ! to the best of his ability, and in which self-sacrifice, even tb the death, is a responsibility to be assumed for the sake I of tho whole. It is going to be difficult for him to adjust himself to a condition in which pressure groups contend for special privilege, in which class distinction has been en- cbtiraged for political gain and prejudice exist. . It must be remembered that many of the men now in ! military service have never known normal civilian existence. Thousands upon thousands reached legal majority in the days of the Great Depression, Unable to find employment ill private industry, fbrced to depend upon support from parents br other relatives, or provided with leaf-raking relief jbbs, they struggled against abnormal conditions until called Into military, traininir. It must lie. linrd for such men tovtlitjrbiighly;'iii)d'el'stni)d tho demands prevalent M tho country today. Others, who en tered service at Inter dates, more familiar with the' high wages of the Wftr emergency, will feel keenly the sacrifices they are called upon to make in dropping to G.. I. wage levels. The absence of "unselfish devotion to tho good of the group" is most patently evident lil this country today. A great many changes Will be essential in civilian thought and action if tho ideals of the returning soldiers as stressed by General Chisholm are to be nict.

Even behind that line, Stimson said, mountains flank the routes to the north. Stimson said, in summarizing tho situation, that "we do not wish to make claims in advance" oi attainments but added that the "tangible" results of the cam paign to date do not need adver tising. ' Discussing the general fighting in the southeast Asia theater Stimson commented that there is "now at least the possiblity" ot linking the Burma and Ledo roads together to open a new avr cnue of supply and military aid to China.1 ... Fund for Farm Census Approved by Senate ' WASHINGTON, May 18 (AP) Funds for a nation-wide farm census next year were added by the senate yesterday before it passed the $242,716,700 state, jus tice and commerce deportments appropriation bill for 1945. The once-every-5-ycars census is required by statute, but tho S7, 250,000 fund for the project had been held Up pending a budget bureau study to determine wheth er it was practicable duHng war time. The census bureau has said the count would utilize women, stu dents and others not engaged In essential war work.

This makes the range for the support program from 180 to 270 pounds at $13.75 per hundredweight, Chicago basis, with appropriate differentials at other, markets. WFA emphasizes to producers that the support program applies 6nly to these weights and to gdod to choice butcher hogs not to lower grades. Many hogs that have been coming to market at the 180-to-200 pound weights are unfinished and of too low grade to come under the support pro gram. While extension of the price support to lighter weight hogs will benefit all markets, it will be particularly welcome news in many western areas where It is normal practice to market at the lighter weights. Hog producers can give considerable relief to the tight Joed situation by finish ing their hogs at lighter weights and marketing them when fin ished. The support on lighter hogs will aid producers in coop erating with WFA's request that hogs be marketed at weights be low 240 pounds.
