This country is just beginning to encounter some of the biggest and most difficult problems that a m ilitary economy makes unavoidable. The arm s program is getting into stride. O ur a irc ra lt pro duction is at the rate of about 25.1)00 plant s a year. Production of tanks, machine guns, arm y trucks ami other vital necessities, is increasing fast.

I 'l l*I RS P À Y , \»>\ E.MIt EH I 1, HUI THE SENTINKU COTTAGE PROVE, OREGON PAGE TWO --------------------------------------------- SO C IA L C H A N G E S _____ In reading a few sentences from the little booklet called the KPY philosopher, we « e re rem inded «if the trem endous social elwmges that have taken place in tin- w orld «luring the past tw enty y ears: changes so rapid that m any have not been able to adjust themselves ami have fallen by the wayside so fa r as prominence, leadership or the aceum ulation of w ealth is eon- eefned. We have seen more changes perhaps than any tw o like periods in the American history. i These changes might as well he accepted, we w on’t likely return to the old ways of doing things. The point th a t should interest most of us ami has interested m any sober m iuded peo ple is mit to swing top far to the right or left in eith er direc tion. nor to abandon the principles ««• know to la- right ami tit,.e-t eated. Honesty ami integrity ami h ard work are still p a ra mount human virtues. These should not lie lost sight of in th- changes that are sure to come following the period of rea d ju st ment in world affairs during the next few years. TH E H O U SIN G SITU ATIO N . The housing situation, acuti- her«- for the past tw o years as in many sections of the U nited States, seems to take spells of growing worse ami the past two weeks has been one of the worst spells if we can judge hv the num ber of inquiries. In m unicipalities wln-re a full time m anager of a C ham ber of Commerce functions, the job of directing the inquiries is usually assigned to the m anager, in m unicipalities where no full time m anager exists, the lot usually falls to the new spaper. This is a service we are glad to perform as our means ami tim e will permit ami while i t ’s trm- that we derive a small revenue in the elcassified ad departm ent, the revenue received does not begin to rem unerate us for the time in trying to direct tlms.- w anting housing facilities to the proper place. We m ention this as another comm unity service this news paper is trying to perform for the community. W<- have seen the idea of looting your own horn tried so oft«n and so successfully in many instances that ««• just could not refrain from pointing to this little service, g« m rally forgotten in the final recount of the m erits of institutions.

O ur s ta tisticia n gave me the fo llo w in g facts: tw o -th ird s o f a ll the Oregon 1940 tuberculosis deaths were males. Among the males, h a lf o f the deaths were over fif t y years o f age. Am ong the females, h a lf the deaths occurnsi before the age o f th irty -tw o , but 48 percent o f 11 II the tuberculosis deaths in Oregon occurred bef«ir<- the age of fo rty five, and each year tuberculosis is claim ing the life o f more than 133 Oregonians between the ages o f fifte e n and th irty -fiv e . U n til we have reduced our death rate to 15 persons per 100,000 population, our w ork is not completed. We are most th a n k fu l fo r your help which we value greatly.
