Held By British
With British Second army, Ger
many, May 29 nil The British
second army held William (Lord
Huw Haw) Joyce, nasty-tongued
British nazl who ranted at his
homelund over the German radio,
in custody today and sought
means to try him as a war crim
inal. (The authoritative British press
association said Joyce would be
tried for treason in England des
pite his naturalization as a Ger
man subject. It was possible that
Britain would refuse to recognize
the naturalization on grounds
that it occurred during wartime.
Treason can be punished by hang
ing. .
Joyce was captured In north
ern Germany by British second
army officers combing the area
for war criminals.
Taken into custody with Joyce
was a woman representing her
self as his wife. Her full identity
was not revealed immediately.
Joyce's real wife was believed to
have remained In England
throughout the war.

WPB Boss Says
Jobs to Dwindle 1
Washington, May 29 Ui War
production boss J. A. Krug today
predicted a sharp new cut In mu
nitions production soon with a
resulting Jump in unemploy
ment. He said, however, that
within six months rapidly . In
creasing civilian production
should be able to begin taking up
the slack of cut back war work
ers and discharged soldiers.
Krug posed the paradox of un
employment in some fields while
other industries were falling
short of meeting renulrements
because of manpower shortages
notably textiles and lumber.'
Ho estimated that the war m'tr
chine would need 2,900,000 less
workers three months from now,
boosting unemployment from a
current 800,000 to 1,900,000.

GROW IN UNDERSTANDING
EVEN WHEN YOU ARE APART
The hardest rule for the war
bride is, "Try to grow In under
standing with your husband, even
wnen you are apart.
The thing that will bring these
war marriages closer together
than anything else is letters. John
Steinbeck reported) after visiting
tne various war sectors. "One
good letter can make the differ
ence between a good soldier and
a sick man." Some soldiers, he
said, worried so much about their
affairs at home, either because
they had received the wrong kind
of letters or none at all, that
they had to be put in the hospital.
An American woman who did
heroic work in France after its
surrender, visiting 70 German
prison camps to assist the French
prisoners, said that a letter from
home, a tangible proof that he
was not forgotten, an assurance
that he was remembered and
loved, was like a tonic to a pris
oner. It - lifted his morale sky
high. And the lifting of one
man's morale, she observed, lifted
the morale of an entire 'prison
camp as nothing else could. Proof
that one man was -not forgotten
aroused hopes in the others that
they, too, were remembered by
someone. That is what one let
ter can do!
'Blessed are letters they are
the monitors," wrote Donald
Grant Mitchell. "They are also
the comforters and they are the
only true heart-talkers."
V
That is why a letter from home
is the most cherished of a sol
dier's possessions. But they must
be cheerful ljjtters, filled with the
little things that make up a day's
happenings the little, things
that, if he were home, he would
tarn and laugn about with nis
wife at the dinner table. A letter
to a soldier is not the place for
recording fears and anxieties and
worries. He has enough of his
own, and ho is helpless to take
care of those at home.
There are so many countless
ways of filling a letter with
laughter and good cheer, with
love and courage, with hope and
plans for the future.
There are also countless let
ters not to write: the letter that
complains about trifling hard
ships at home; the letter that
carries worries about the health
or the finances of the family, the
letter that says, I know you
don't mind my going out with'
other men, I'm so lonely"; the
letter that begins, Now that you
are gone, I find that It was all a
mistake, and that I am not really
in love with you."
"The only true heart-talkers!"
Two people who have been mar
ried in wartime, by talking hon
estly and loyally from the heart,
explaining what they are, what
they think and believe, can ac
quire a profound kknowledge of
each other. Understanding can be
lost, and is lost every day, by
people who live side by side. It
can grow and ripen and develop
when they are thousands of miles
apart.
a
One of the first acts of adjust
ment to marriage, whether the
couple are together or apart, is
to plan together the kind of life
they want. No livable house was
ever built without a blueprint,
no successful life, without a de-
sign.
The number of happy mar
riages can bo . increased when
people plan their lives as they
plan their days, knowing what
they want, what they must do to
accomplish it, and how to go
about it. Unhappiness is often the
result of a lack of Intelligence in
daily living. Boredom and fail
ure are often the result of a kind
of mental Inertia which prevents
us from developing all sides of
our personality and opening the
locked roors of adventure. But
no one ever unlocked those doors
without a key, and the key to
them all is a realistic plan for
your marriage and for the future.
If it is not unreasonable to
hope that world planning will
soon be under way, surely It is
not unreasonable to chart the
course for two lives. .

Well, folks, what is.'your prediction
of the weather? Of course, it's only
your idea because I have talked to at
least 100 people and have had just that
many prognostications (Boy, get that
vocabularly).
In any event, I gather that it's un
usual, which is very normal, because '
from border to border I have found that
every spot is always blessed (or cursed)
with "unusual" weather.
But when, and if, that sun comes out
again remember that your car should
be ready for that fishing trip.
Incidentally, do you people in Bend
know that you have the most amazing
river in the world running through town?
With all that rain and melting snow it
never changes its level. Can you tell me
why? If you don't know, come in and let
me tell you. I'm just a stranger, so I
asked.
Have you ever written your friends
and told them about that? If not, try it.
Word of mouth advertising is the strong
est there is.

The above statement gives you an idea of
the enormous volume of guns, ammunition,
food and medical supplies still needed to
finish the Japs. To produce mountains of
material takes money your money in War
Bonds. ,
This year there will be only two War
Bond drives, not three. But only by buying
more bonds during the 7th War Loan can
two drives take the place of last year's
three. Almost as much money is needed this
year as last to fight the war.
Whea peace comes You'll be dad you have
War Bond savings for educating your child
ren, maybe a new home, a new car, travel,
retirement and a lot of things you can't
buy now.
The point of a bond drive like the 7th is
to buy extra bonds above those you regu
larly buy. You are asked to buy at least one
additional $100 bond during the 7th War
Loan May 14th to June 30th.
