At any rate, the War Production board co-operates with a committee of business men who will try to cut down the paper overhead, by evolving simplified systems of reporting and account ing. They are waist deep in gov ernment blanks and battling their way out. The government seems sympathetic. Hearing the newly organized de fense forces against the paper blitz is W. J. Donald, president of the American Trade Association Execu- tives. He is chairman of a special advisory committee which will work with the WPB, a King Canute wield ing a valiant broom against the pa per inundation.

Mr. Donald, Canadian born, natu ralized in 1923, naturally will have to use up a lot more paper in his education and explorative cam paign among the individual mem bers of 1,200 trade associations, whom he will consult. He wants comments and suggestions. In Sar nia, Ont., where he was born in 1890, he attended the Sarnia Colle giate institute, and later was gradu ated from McMaster university at Hamilton, Ont. He came here in 1911 as manager of the installation staff of the American City bureau, making his U. S. A. career in busi ness economics.

A troop of Japanese was moving steadily up the Chindwin river in West Burma. The colonel had only a small pursuit plane. He swung a 550-pound bomb in it, and with it scored a bulls-eye on the ad vancing troop. These and simi lar exploits won him a silver star.

Her Opinion “I hope that’s a nice book for you to read, darling,” said a con scientious mother to her young daughter. “Oh yes, mummy, it’s a lovely book, but I don’t think you’d like it.
