The long story, revealed now
for the first time began In 1942
when two youthful Burmese ap
proached the British, explaining
the Japanese Invasion had caused
a split between Burma national'
1st and left wing circles.
British Convinced
The two, claiming to be emis
saries oi the left wing group
wnicn am not oeueve Japanese
promises, convinced the British
of their integrity and were helped
In organizing by British officers
who parachuted Into Burma.
The movement spread and In
fluenced other groups which fur
ther were inspired by reports of
the success of Filipino guerilla
successes in liberating the Philip
pines. Even the north Burma hill
people, the Kachlns and the Chins
cooperated secretly with the Brit
ish.
The tribes spied for the British
and organized ambushes, always
avoiding anything that might dis
rupt allied plans.

A
railroad's roadbed has a lot to do with
travel comfort. A well-built roadbed does away
with annoying, sleep-disturbing bumps . . . like
a boat breasting a choppy sea. It gives you
"smooth sailing."
The kind of gravel used for roadbed ballast is
an important factor. Union Pacific uses a
special, sturdy type of crushed granite which
stands up particularly well under wartime's
heavily loaded freight and passenger trains.
Then, too, it acts as a "cushion," resulting in
more comfortable riding and less wear on
locomotives and cars.
Thus, even the ballast used on the railroad's
roadbed plays its part in the efficient, 'round-the-clock
transportation of troops and essential
battle-line freight over Union Pacific's Strate
gic Middle Route, uniting the East with the
Pacific Coast.
Future "smooth sailing" over life's highway
can be assured by holding tight to the war
bonds we now have . . . and, as an extra
measure of economic protection, buying as
many more as we can possibly afford.

Social Security
Official to Visit
Central Oregon persons desiring
to file claims for old-age and sur
vivors insurance, or who desire;'
information regarding provisions!
of the social security act govern-i
ing such claims, today were urged ;
to appear at the courthouse on
May 23. Howard J, Nelson, man
ager of the federal security agen-;
cy of the social security board,
with headquarters in Klamath
Falls, reported today that he
would be in room 210 of the court-!
house, at 2 p. m. that date, to
handle filing of claims or to1
answer inquiries.
Nelson said that he planned to
hold such conferences in Bend
periodically, and issued the follow
ing statement for the guidance
of those seeing him on May 23:
Advice Given
"I would advise anyone who has
any questions regarding old-age
and survivors, insurance to call
even though they do not intend
to file a claim, because frequently
persons who are eligible to file
for benefits fail to do so because
they are not aware of their en
titlement. Qualified workers 65
years of age or over, who are not
employed In covered employment,
or who are employed in covered
employment for wages not in ex
cess of $14.99 monthly are entitled
to file a claim even though they
intend to return to work.
"They should file not 'only to
prevent loss of monthly bene
fits to themselves, but to prevent;
a reduction in their average
monthly wage which would result
in a lower benefit rate."
HAP HOPPER!
Animal hoofs and horns do not
yield glue, but the piths of the
norns are good sources "of raw
material for this widely used ma
terial.
