He says: "We're- going to have to dig thorn but. They've got very little to fight with and what they have is In none too good shape." V i.Ir tutint ft- win tnkn. rrt Jorce the' Jap navy 'to a ahow-j down, he answers: "I can t get myself into a rat's frame of mind. So I don't know whut It will take." -1 i. He adds: . "The stupid, -. bestial Jap sees that he is losing control of the ijoa EVERYWHERE.'" AS bearing on Halsey's "brutal, bestial" estimate of our Pacific enemy,, our troopr fighting their way Into- Manila's old walled city Jound the bodies of 60 Catholic priests, and -women and children to whom they had given shelter, In-, Do La Salic. college..

He- adds: "The Jap- In dustrialists see their empire get ting ready to crumble. A dollar weans as much to. them, .an to- anybody. When they get the up per hand of tlie BEASTS in charge of the anrty, thoy win put out peace foolers..-. That, he . says, will be the DANGER POINT, adding: ; "If we allow a neoglatcd peace mid don't demand unconditional surrender, It wlll be the greatest crime in the history of this country.- Such a move would be sen tencing our grandsons to death." fN the western European front J the . Canadians -drive on through the mud, making slow but consistent progress against the Germans. Tlie weather Is a combination of swirllnK mtst and drizdA that stops the planes. , The V. S. 1st and 9th and the BWt!h 2nd armies are still time tlve along the Roor. On to the souths the- U. S 3rd an 7tb.arc flgliting,,but not on a major scale. The Caiutdians are still putting on the bulk of the western front heat at the far northern end of ' the Siegfried line. Montgomery says: -. - , "The Iaet round ot 'lie. battle for . Germany . is on, and the enemy .la .going to receive a knockout, blow . ,a somewhat ; tinusual one, delivered from TWO directions" - , , lONTGOMERY, nke Haisey, Is t always an Interesting talker. - A'!o, like Haisey, he Is a result ' THE taW AGE OF W66d By Charles A SERIES of twelve articles entitled "The New Age of Wood" is appearing: in the Jnternational Woodworker labor newspaper, published at Portland, Oregon, the official publication of the International Woodworkers of America (CIO)...;...., ..- V',... ; These articles are interesting in more ways than one. ' They are interesting first, of coarse, for the text, which is written by EHery Foster, who has the faculty of making a more or less statistical subject colorful. Secondly, these articles are interesting because of their implication that labor is making eareful study of intimate industrial prob lems. . The articles also point out the joint interests of capi tal and labor in bringing about conservation of forest re sources and the dependence of one upon the other, in keep ing with modern thought that labor and capital may both profit . best by . understanding cooperation rather than through employment of antagonistic forces. ' ; M The International Woodworker also is printing" articles of a similar character entitled "Science Finds New Ways to Make Trees Do More Work," reporting on new wood waste developments as presented by the American Forest . Pro ducts Industries, Inc., and the Forest Products Laboratory, a division of the U. S. Forest Service, at Madison, Wis. . , -..,..'.,,' . A GREAT deal has been printed in recent months about .. use of wood waste and the importance of making prompt use of new processes whereby a greater portion of a tree may be converted into manufactured materials, rather than utilizing a small portion for lumber and destroying the remainder.,: ... ,.' , .,..,,.- . , We, believe that if the woodworkers ;-the men who labor in the. woods and the mills become more thoroughly fa miliar with this problem, an increased measure of conser vation in all operations will result. ... . ", . In this connection the following paragraph from Ellery Foster's "The New Age of Wood" in the International Wood worker is. significant: .., . .'...' ,-,' Mora than any ether raw material, wood holds- the key .' to the world's problem of freedom from want. Not because , wood will displace other raw materials, but because it , provides huge additional sources of supply to help the : world feed, clothe, houee, warmv and transport its -teeming ; millions of people-. The Implications are tremendous, because wood chemistry (rriakes it vastly easier than ever before t produce an' abundance of the things people need for a good life. , ', i, , ' - M ANUFACTURERS of airplanes have found that they can grently - increase , records of what their airplanes are doing on the' war! fronts, When a ulane from a standing miSio., and the news is broadcast to workers, h nrcduction immediately takes an upswing. ... .-It ..l-lamp nd a few .minor .artielea We-believe the same principle applies to the educational' work being undertaken by the International Woodworker lor when laborers fully understand how vital their work becomes to general welfare they will have a greater pro duction stimulunt than could be provided by any other means., , ,. , , ',, . . . .' ! Labor's part in this "New Age of Wood" is particularly emphasized by author Foster as follows : - ' Labor, with ita interest in full employment at good wages, hours, and working conditions, has a huge stake in seeing .. that this new age of wood- comes Into being here in the United States. It will be needed as a part of the new de velopments which we must have after the war If we are to avoid unemployment It opens new horizons for woodwork - ars, promising to make them and their industry one of the best-known and most-talked-of In the world. But there is many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip. Men with money must be found to develop the new wood Industries. Powerful monopoly Interests, particularly the molasses and petroleum interests (who formerly made most of tlie Indus trial alcohol) can be expected to fight the expansion of the . wood sugar Industry. They might succeed, because Industrial f alcohol is one of the hottest behind-the-scenes political issues In the world." , ;..-. . ... . - , Persons who have been working on wood waste utiliza tion problems know that Author Foster is not speaking idly when he tells of the powerful influences attempting to block tlie program. Harris Ellsworth, former News-Review editor, now Oregon's congressman from the Fourth District, could be nn effective witness if called upon to tell of the pressure brought agivinst his effort to establish the ulcohol-from-wood-waste plant now being built at Spring lield. . -...'.,..:..,. ',...'. But widespread dissemination of information such as is bcjng; undertaken by the International Woodworker will be the most powerful and ef feotive.weapon to overcome monop oly control and open the way for effective and complete use of our forest resources.. ." i getter. ... ON the eastern front, the Rus sians are fighting all the way from Czechoslovakia to the Bal tic. They are keeping their flunks even with their center taking nu chances. The hardest fighting is at the -northen ana southern ends. Zhukov,. In the center, Is still quiet, but apparently has bridgeheads over the Oder and is ready to strike when the time comes. The Germans are fighting hard--thelr forces being com posed of a combination of nrmy regulars and Himmler -home gtmvds. In spite of our bombing of their rear communication lines, they are getting reinforce ments up to the front.

News-Review, We are taking this means of annoaline to the buhlie to con sider others when they allow their dogs to run loose.

Col.- Leo C. Noon's P-47 hunderbolt group. A unit of the Ninth air force. But Britain-based aircraft also bene fit from his homing directions. He helped steer 348 transient air craft through bad weather in one 30-day period, when the station transmitted 1,490- compass steers. Shiery, who entered; service at Roseburg, Ore., has been recom- menaeo tor tne bronze star medal for the feat of homing 65 aircraft in two hours, radioing them Irom one to a dozen steers anipeo. Thev were fighters and bombers, leav- iuk men- irje inrougn sona overcast individually, in elements and in flights. lraiiic was so heavy two and three aireratf would be calling ior neip at once, and it took 20 minutes to get around to giving one pilot a second steer after an original compass heading had been transmitted to him. In spite of all difficulties, including two emergency landings, alt alrcralt were guided to sale landings As chief of section. Shier v has helped hundreds of pilots find their way through haze, " fog, overcast, many of them with se vere battle damage, or separated front formations in the heat of combat. Usually only a single transmis sion is necessary.
