WITH American boys fighting in foul and miserable condi tions all over the world against fanatical,- bestial enemies, with the casualty lists rising swiftly toward the million mark, one finds it extremely difficult to Work up a sweat over this. mid nis.miu it these night curfew. . It might be different I hlght crowds were made up ex clusively of men freshly home from the combat areas and going out With their wives and sweet hearts to let ojf a lHUe steam by Way o getting tholr strained nerves back to something like normal tension. There are many such, of course, but their percent age of the total is small. When you see the average home front civilian, his pockets bulging with unaccustomed in come that after all Is said and done arises out of the blood and the sweat and the sacrifice of war, lossing his war-made dol lars away for high-priced liquor that ovcrmuddles his brain, you can't escape the conclusion that in all probability shutting these jWght spots down a few hours earlier does no great amount of harm. WHENEVER you go these days, the. cigaret supply Is a lead ing topic of conversation. That holds good here. The situation in Washington seems to be about the same as elsewhere. The unattached strang er finds them extremely hard to come by, and if he hasn't been forehanded enough to bring some along, he Is apt to go smokeless. At some of the dinner places cigaret girls make Infrequent rounds and sell you one package? for two bits per. But you can't depend on It. Thorp are vague stories of furtive individuals lurk ing in the shadows who are will ing to part with a carton for a price, but they don't seem to deal ' with strangers. Cigarets arc just plain scarce. Kven the members of congress, who have their own nice little 'restaurant in the basement of the capltol and their own private sub way foe going back and forth without getting their feet wet seem to be as hard up for cigarets as anyone else. STILL this strange fact is ap parent here as elsewhere: No body seems to be GOING WITH OUT SMOKES. You see very few Tolling their own. Pipes appear to be no more numerous than In other times. The smoke-filled ; rooms are stH filled, with smoke, and most of it is still cigaret smoke. There MV rnystorios In the mod 'ern world, and this is one of them. jffLTffn NiuiiiV'H(BiT11 HOUSEHOLD help, here in the upper fringes of the deep -South; is as scarce and as exotic as everywhere. This wrltgr had dinner the pthfci- night with a friend in Alex BRAKE TESTS Byf Charley Law enforcement officers agencies in virtually every community in the nation in testing brakes of motor vehicles during the period from April 15 to June 1. Alarmed by the number of traffic accidents resulting from faulty equipment, police officers throughout th.e entire nation have adopted plans for uniform Millions of motorists today much older than those they conditions. Thousands of cars are going off the road every day due to breakdowns or accidents and many are being replaced with jalopies resurrected from scrap heaps. It is extremely difficult to secure prompt repair of auto mobiles today. Nearly all mechanics hftve more work than they can possibly give early attention to and, as result, many motorists neglect periodic checkups, keeping machines rolling until a disabling breakdown occurs. These conditions are all conducive to accidents. Records show lack of attention to the braking system is a common fault among motor vehicle operators and one of the principal causes of accidents. . . i A simple test has been devised to determine whether a motor vehicle's brakes are adequate. The check consists of a small, slotted block of wood, one inch thick, to be placed on the floor boards under the brake pedal. The pedal is then depressed and if it strikes the block before starting to take hold it is evidence that the brakes need attention. Engineers have determined that if brakes do not start taking hold until there is only an inch of pedal travel left, they are not .adequate for safety. The brake test, which will be conducted simultaneously throughout the nation, has the endorsement of federal, state and local authorities everywhere. Oregon endorse ments have been given by Governor Earl Snell, Secretary of State Kobert S. Furrell and Mayor Earl Riley of Portland. Chief Harry RT. Niles, head of the Portland bureau of police, is state chairman in charge of the campaign. . Law enforcement officers will meet in Portland March 16 for detailed instructions and preparation of plans for the campaign in this state. Such a program,, wo believe, is important to promotion of traffic safety. If we were to offer any criticism it would be that the tests do not go far enough but should include all mechanical factors connected with safe operation. Character jslie of Ar American During the first World War, when British Tommies and American Doughboys were in France, a story was going the rounds about a Frenchman who was called upon to describe the distinguishing characteristics of the soldiers fronv the two countries. "Well," said the Frenchman, "when an Englishman goes into a restaurant, he acts like he owned the damned place; but when an American goes into a restaurant he acts like he don't give a damn who owns the place." Perhaps it was this distinctive American characteristic which caused President Roosevelt in his recent report to Congress; on the Yalta conference to use these words: "agreed to by Russia, by Britain and by ME." And in another part of his report to say : "We didn't go as far as Britain wanted to in certain areas, and we didn't go as far as Russia, wanted to in certain areas, and we didn't go as far Its I wanted to in certain areas." 2 Douglas County Men Serving At Superior! Base XXI HOMBKR C O M M A N D HEADQUARTERS, Guam- - I De lnyed) Two Douglas county men are among the hundreds of enlisted men at a huge Superfort ress base In the Marianas whose diligent efforts have made It pos sible for the giant H-2! bombers of Major General Curtis E.

They are members of a combat lailt commanded by Brigadier General Emmelt O'Donncll, Jr., who led the first 13-2!) striking force from Salpau to bomb To kvo's aviation industry on No vember Zl, 1M I. "The work of these men and their fellow soldiers is directly responsible for the success of the B-2!s in bombing Japan's war in dustries." General O IXninell said in congratulating them. "These men realize their responsibilities in tlie pre-mission tasks of insur ing the maximum chance for safe andria. He and his wile are do ing the housework- have been doing it for quite a while and ex pect to be doing it for some time to come. Reason: NO help avail able at ANY price. , In the course of the evening we called another friend on the phone to suggest that he drop over for a little light conversation. He Just couldn't make it, he said regretfully, as he was taking care of his granddaughter while his daughter and her back-trom-tho-wars husband were out a a show. "I really needed to go back to the office tonight myself," he ex plained, "but we Just can't get any help at all. even baby-sitters. So I m doing the Job."

EDWARDS The failure to make a happy world in which God's gifts are shown and men, live happily with men, is in man himself. His moral life has been incap able of meeting the demand lor unselfish living and planning. On every new level of achieve ment he remains selfish. There fore only a moral and spiritual force big enough to change mankind morally aiid spiritually is big enough to be the domi nating factor in thu new world. The ' kingdom man is look ing for is what Jesus called tile "kingdom of heaven." The power that man needs is the power of love. Man's moral efforts are to be recogniwd and we believe that God is pleased with all honest en deavor. When the heart is poured out In supplication be fore God. these comes a sense of His healing presence. Iis voice of forgiveness gives in ner strength and confidence confidence in God's mercy and in His desire and willingness to work in and through us. These days holds for each of us ptapy apportunlties and rich blessings, provided there is within us a sense of Tightness with God. Knowing that He sees beyond what wo are to what through Him we" may lie come., we go out to love and serve bur fellow men. They, too are objects of is loye Amen. . . .' 1 , " .
