THE SMOKE JUMPERS
During the recent electrical storm which set a
number of forest fires, the Smoke Jumpers had an
opportunity to prove their worth, and this they did
to the entire satisfaction of forest officials and to the
general public as well, for they were the instruments
that probably stopped several bad forest fires.
The Smoke .Jumpers stopped five fires from
spreading in very inaccessible areas. Normally it
would have tyken ground crews and pack trains 10 to
15 hours to reach these fires. This would have given
them time to become dangerous fires that could have
spread over several acres. The Smoke Jumpers were
on the ground fighting the fires an hour after they
were reported—before they had time to spread.
The forest officials can be proud of the record the
Smoke Jumpers stationed at the Redwood Ranger
station have made this, their first season. And they
can thank their lucky stars for such a personnel as
is maintained at the Redwood station, from Ranger
Harold Bowerman, Smoke Jumper superintendent,
Jack Heintzelman and on down the list.

UNUSED PRODUCE
It has come to our knowledge that much fruit and
vegetables raised in the \alley is being thrown away.
The farmers have used all they desire of the crop and
they have so much left that it is being wasted. This
is a problem for some branch of the government
which said they would take care of all excess produce
if given sufficient notice, so that nothing would be
wasted.
The farmers who have this produce, should let our
County Agent, O. K. Beals know about it, so some
thing can be done to save the crop, for there are mil
lions of men. women and children hungry for it in
foreign lands. We are throwing away enough fruit
and vegetables to feed thousands of people in lands
the Nazis have forced into privation.
ON at an estimated rate of at least
$30,000,000,000 each year the
war lasts.
Should this happen, with two
more years of war, our money-
supply would be inflated to a to
tai almost FOUR TIMES what it
was in 1939.
You do not need to be an econ
omist to realize that this progres
sive enormous inflation of the na
tion’s money-supply is at the same
time piling up the difficulties of
preventing a great and disorderly
rise in prices.
This wartime manufacture of
new money must be LESSENED
GREATLY, if such a disaster is to
be averted.
It is that necessity which ex
plains the WHY behind the
ernment’s colossal taxation
borrowing program.
You surely know that our Gov-
eminent, if it is forced t|> do so,
could get the extra money it needs
to pay its current war bills by
running the money off the print
ing presses, the way Germany did
in the twenties.
Have you ever thought, “Why
doesn’t it? Why does it tax me
so heavily? Why does it bother
me continuously about loans?
The answer iS:
the Govern
ment in your long interests, must
do everything possible TO KEEP
TO A MINIMUM this wartime
creation of new money.
The best way to lessen this per
ilous swelling of our money sup
ply is by taxation. The next best
way is for all of us—every indi
vidual and every business firm—
to lend the Government every dol
lar we can reasonably spare.
Whatever you pay in taxes
whatever you lend, LESSENS BY
SO MUCH the new money the
Government is obliged to create.
This is the crucial role each one
of us, as an individual, plays in
safeguarding the future of the na
tion at home, while our boys do
so abroad.
Whatever else you may be hum
bly doing for your country, in this
momentous period, this basic re-
sponsibility of a citizen must be
added to it.
It is hard and may get harder
—on everyone, But whatever the
inconveniences and sacriTices may
be, how will they compare with
what will have been done by the
10,000,000 young men and women
who. at their best years, have
broken their careers to win the
war?

In line with present interest in
aircraft recognition, an energetic
member of an observation post ob
served an unusual plane passing,
while she was on duty. After
much quandry anjl reference to
late magazines, she decided that it
was an English DeHaviland Mos
quito bomber being ferried thru
the territory. A few nights later,
she attended a dinner where sev
eral Air Corps officers were pres
ent from a nearby field. She thot
this would be an excellent chance
to get some expert advice, and
turned to one of the officers and
asked, “Do you have any DeHavi
land Mosquitoes here?” The of
ficer replied: "Why. I don’t know,
I’m not a native of Oregon.” We
don't tell this to discourage inter
est. in aircraft recognition, for in
stead we would like very much to
increase everyone» interest in it.
However, quite often the sector
sergeants find people asking ques
tions about planes that do not hap
pen to be included in the recogni
tion manuals, and some that do.
One afternoon recently, a number
of observers on the Oswego obser
vation post fell into a discussion'
of a strange plane that was cir
cling their vicinity. They finally
decided that it was an A-20. They
had plenty of time to look at it
for there was a reason for its cir
cling. Observer, Mrs. W. W. Dav
is was waving her dish towel at the
plane for one of the crew members
was her son Bob. So the observers
at the Oswego post can thank Bob
Davis for giving them a good look,
at an A-20.
