Seattle, Wash., Sept. 5 More "unusual weather", NOT raining
in SEATTLE! (Ah there, Reg!) Not exactly "fair and warmer",
but the sun peaks out from scattered clouds every now and then,
and Mt Rainier can be seen, occasionally.
On unexpected termination of "official business" and tha old
reporting instinct, came up here on the "midnight" from Portland
to see the Soviet bombers, fresh in from Moscow.
Saw them, but that's all! Even the old press card, we printed
many years ago in the Sun 'Job office" entitling the "bearer to
all privileges of the press," failed to get us in BB-gun range. In
fact Judging by the guards thrown about by the U. S. navy,
travelling Red avia'ors, don't care any more for freedom of the
press, abroad than at home. (And that is about 30 degrees below
zero!)
But we fared better than some of the Seattle newspaper lads,
they were shot at by a middy guard with an itching trigger
finger, when the press boat went beyond some imaginary line.
Quite a touch of war atmosphere, but silly business. If these
Soviet aviators merely flew over to inspect U. S. plane manu
facturing, why not treat them as the Britishers on a similar mis
sion are treated? Or are there more U. S. Fascists gunning for
"Reds" than U. S. Sinn Feiners gunning for Britishers?
They even took our field glasses, at the entrance to the navy
yard, which perhaps accounted for the fact we were much im
pressed by the distant view of the huge sea planes without
benefit of binoculars. We were about to claim the mystery of
Russian air resistance had been explained when we were Informed
the two visiting flying craft had been made by the CONSOLIDAT
ED AIRCRAFT CO. OF SAN DIEGO, commonly known as the
P.B.Y.-3's, and are badly outmoded by the newer U. S. types.
The seaplanes were painted a dull dirty green, with huge single
red stars on the fuselage, and guns sticking out of ship-shape little
turrets did look formidable to this non-militaristic landlubber,
and that flight of 8000 miles over the Arctic circle to Seattle,
with nearly SO men was nothing to be sneezed at. But what's it
all about?
Went back to the Olympic hotel for a late breakfast and as
luck would have it ran into a bunch of the "Bolo" flyers coming
out of a freight elevator, the only professional flyers in the
world we have ever seen who DON'T look smart. They did look
strong and resourceful, had we not known otherwise they might
have been a football squad from O S C. In street garb, whole
some, healthy, husky lads, only they lacked the customary foot
ball animal spirits and self assurance. Have an idea the first
glimpse of the fabled U. S. plutocracy, awed them a bit. The
freight elevator of course was to keep them away from the public
and the press.
The general belief here seems to be these 90 (47 to be exact)
aviators are going to leave their old planes here and fly back
a SQUADRON of heavy bombers, fresh from the assembly line
with the latest armor protection and heaviest armament. That
sounds reasonable, and might explain the unusual secrecy and
mystery attending all their movements.
The taxi man enlightened us a bit, (as Eleanor R. will testify
taxi drivers ara fine sources of cross-section public opinion) by
prophesying Uncle Sam will live to regret this hook-up with Soviet
Russia.
"Walt and see" he cautioned grimly, 'these communist guys
will get our best planes and all our construction secrets and then
with their 200 millions they will be using it against us one of
these days, and we wish we had never seen the dopes. I ain't got
any more use for them Russians than for the Germans, and, it was'
a sad day when they came into this war, and mark my word for
that!"
"Anything to beat Hitler," was our rejoinder,
"Aw we could have licked him Just as we licked the Kaiser
without calling in any Red Russians, and now after Hitler is
licked you'll have to lick Stalin, that's my view of It and there
are plenty who think the same, I say let Stalin and Hitler fight
It out and don't give help to EITHER of 'cm, the more they kill
oft the better!"
Well, perhaps that Is another reason why the government
authorities decided they wouldn't take any chances with this
visiting delegation from Moscow. Some Nazi agent in this country
might work upon a taxi driver of that type and persuade him
that planting a pineapple in one of these Soviet planes would be
a very patriotic act.
Another grapevine report from a newspaper man: the claim
none of these Bolshevikls talk English is the bunk, three of them,
including General M. Gromov, talk like natives with an Oxford
accent. The 'no talk English" was another dodge to hamstring
the press. R.WJl.

MAY WE HEDGE A BIT
For years readers of this col
umn who follow the health sug
gestions given here have been
reporting posi
tively that tak
ing an iodin ra
tion has stop
ped the prog
ress of achrom
o t r i c hia and
some of them
declare that it
has completely
cured the trou
ble. Within the
past three or
four y e a rs a
const derable
number of followers have re
ported similar results from sup
plementing their diet with vita
min B complex.
Achromotrlchla is widespread
In the North American contin
ent and visitors from South
America state that it occurs
among all classes down there.
Fortunately achromotrlchia is
practically painless, after the
first year or so. There Is no
denying that it is painful when
you first discover you are com
ing down with it. but the pain
moderates gradually as the mal
ady becomes established.
A more familiar name for
achromotrichia is canities, which
should be pronounced k-nigh-tics
but must be pronounced ka-nish-i-ez
according to Webster,
the a as in ask, accent on the
nlsh, the i's short, the e long.
While we're consulting Dr.
Webster we may as well find
out the meaning of achromo
trlchia: Absence of pigment In
the hair, or loss of the natural
color, as when the hair turns
gray or white.
Some readers, casually noting
allusions to this trouble here
have assumed that I say that the
iodln ration or vitamin B com
plex or both will prevent hair
from turning gray or restore na
tural color after the hair has
turned gray. On the contrary
I have always been skeptical of
this, although I cannot help be
ing impressed by the large
number of correspondents who
have assured me that one or the
other or both of these foods have
apparently brought back some of
the original color to graying
hair. Perhaps I am not so
skeptical as I would be If either
the iodin ration or vitamin B
complex could do anybody any
harm. But knowing that either
or both can do no harm in any
circumstance, or believing so.
and the press is going out of
its pants. You have to put on
your rose-colored glasses and
work your imagination harder
than it's really safe to do in
these days of wages and hours
if you're to get your money's
worth out of Reno tonight.
If you're looking for thrills,
you'd better come at the be
ginning of a three-day holiday,
rather than at the end.

AND besides, It's a long road
that lies ahead. So let's call

business trade editors the

Elaborate offsets are being plan
ned by defense officials (special
priorities for injured communi

fense contracts to small manu
facturers, more subcontracting,
etc.) In view of the extraordi

By Paul Dunham
Washington, D. C, Sept. 8
The washing machine industry
of the country consumes eight
hundredthx of one percent of the
steel capacity of the nation. To
effect saving of this small
amount Leon Henderson has
curtailed the manufacture of
washing machines and the fed
eral reserve has Imposed regula
tions on installment buying
which will reduce the sale of
the remainder. The infinitesimal
amount of steel normally con
sumed in this industry will be
given to the Soviets in the form
of tanks, etc.
Meanwhile the vacant lots of
the northwest are filled with
rusting automobiles with suffi
cient steel to make hundreds of
washing machines. It is one of
the quirks of the defense pro
gram. Industries are being de
nied metals when there are suf
ficient to meet domestic as well
as war requirements (plenty of
rubber available for tires with
out increasing prices), and men
are being thrown out of Jobs
because of this inability to ob
tain materials. The northwest is
feeling and will feel the pinch
of goods which are not luxuries
but necessities. This entire situ
ation is headed for a senatorial
investigation, which will not be
a whitewash.
...
TO date the government has
failed to keep down inflation, as
is well known in the distant
states of the far west. Workers
in industry are making more
money than ever before and
they insist on spending it for
things which they could not af
ford in the past during the de
pression. The government is try
ing to place a ceiling upon con
sumer goods to prevent a rise in
prices, but the prices continue
to rise. It is the old law of sup
ply and demand, and this can
not be changed by statute.
There are as many chickens be
ing raised as ever, but more
people can afford chicken and
the price responds accordingly. 1
This applies to clothing, shoes
and everything else. The gov
ernment has not yet found a
way to compel people to save. 1
...
CIVIL Aeronautics is prepar
ing to request congress for an
other few million dollars to
carry on tbe construction of ad
ditional airports. About a dozen
northwest towns have been ten
tatively selected for airfields,
but until money is available
CAA is refusing to particularize
where the proposed fields will
be situated. While CAA fields
can be utilized by the army air
corps, the flying soldiers wish to
develop their own fields with
runways about 4,000 feet in
length, or up to 9,000. What
CAA would like to have is
$100,000,000 and later another
appropriation of similar size.
Walla Walla has an airport,
but not what is desired by the
army. Land was purchased and
strips were bought for runways
into wheat fields, it Is said. As
the army requires mora room
the Walla Walla people are try
ing to purchase the rest of the
wheal field, but there is some
hitch. Landing fields, formerly
adequate fur community needs, 1
are no longer satisfactory for
the larger planes, the medium
bombers and the interceptors
demand plenty of "sea room"
and runways desired are a mile
or more in length. This new
requirement is a pain in the
neck for half a dozen communi
ties in the northwest, as acquir
ing additional land is becoming
expensive.
...
SHORTAGE of coasters is aid
ing several army cantonments
now under construction. Until
the maritime commission divert
ed the coasters to other pur
poses the tidewater mills of the
northwest used steamers and it
required several mon'ns from
the time the army placed an
order for lumber untii delivery
was made. Now the order comes
in and the lumber is placed on
freight cars and shipped Imme
diately and the material arrives
in the south, where the can:on
ments are being planned, within
two weeks. War department
says that almost all the lumber
being used at Panama canal in
the new development there is
shipped by steamer from the'
Douglas fir mills and after the
steamer unloads in th- canal
zone it is sent to South America
to bring back a cargo of raw
r-.fcl.-nals for the s'npilrs be
ing accumulated. Th trip re
quires 90 dayi.
On the west coast arrange
ments are going forward to:
utilize the strings of tank cars
which have been idle on side-
tracks on Puget sound, in Port-'
lanu ana usiuui ilia putm.. t
costs more to transport oil In
tank cars than in'steam tankers,
but if a pinch comes the -ears
will be used and, of course,
prices will be upped as a result.
Almost all of the tank cars are
owned by oil companies and are
not the property of the rail
roads. Tankers are, of course,
owned by the oil companies.

To the editor: A great deal
ia ueing saia la regara to ine
morale of the army and of
course sometimes mention Is
made 'of the public morale. It
seems there is a wide differ
ence of opinion in regard to
this most important thing per
taining to our national defense.
As a former service man who
I has served in both our army
iand navy in peace time and war
time I have, and I am sure that
other veterans have, some dif
ferent ideas in regard to the
morale of the army.
Back in 1908 and '09 a sold
ier's pay was $13 per month
with an allowance of 143i
cents per day for rations plus
plenty of discipline. In my opin
ion what is needed most in the
army, the country, and I might
say. congress, is DISCIPLINE,
with more men like General
Benjamin Lear to hand it out.
Discipline builds respect and
respect is very essential to
morale.
Very truly,
Elwood Hussey.
