WELL, ANYWAY, the close of the army draft should be more diverting than the start. This week-end, men whose ages range from 45 through 65 will totter to the polls and sign on the dotted line, thus concluding the matter of U. S. legistration. Can't you see the grey beards wobbling, the bald heads nodding and hear the ancient knees cracking! Oh some of the bunch will be spry enough, or try to be. But the vast majority, we fear, won't be anything to throw Bernarr McFadden into spasms of biological jubilation, or greatly alarm the axis spies, who (of course) will be on the job to report to Tokyo and Berlin. On the OTHER hand, no gnashing of teeth, no wiping-away of the vagrant tear, no muffled sobs at home. No Siree. These boys will not only be glad to register, they will be prouder than a bunch of vener able peacocks, called in for a beauty parade, and how the older ga!3 will speed Ease of Commando Raid Shows Depleted Guard, Is Mackenzie's Belief By DoWItt MacKonilo Wide World War Analyst The significance of the astonishing British commando raid on the coast of France in the neighborhood of the important channel port of Boulogne is the fact that the Britons enqoun tered so little Nazi resistance that they were able to scout about for two hours and then withdraw without losing man. Now It would be rash to rush into sweeping conclusions on the strength of this circum stance, but It does tend to con firm recent reports that, be cause of urgent demand for troops on the Russian front, the Germans haven't been holding this vitally strategic channel coast In full strength. The Bou logne area Is of the utmost mili tary Importance, and one would expect it to be about the last place the Nails would leave with light protection, in view of their obvious fear that the allies are preparing for an In vasion. Ancient Boulogne Important In Wars This ancient port, through which a steady stream of troops passed during the long years of the last war, lies within light of the white cliffs of England, and is one of the harbors near est the coast of Britain. German big guns can easily drop their freight of death on British towns from there. The reader will recall it was from Boulogne that Napoleon In 1804 proposed to Invade Eng land. He abandoned this danger ous enterprise after more thought, but the project la com memorated by a marble shaft 176 feet high, surmounted by o bronze statue of the little cor poralif Hitler's men haven t destroyed It. The fact that the commandos found this sector fairly easy ot access gives to wonder what the -u...w,r, itiiv be at less Import ant points along the French and Belgian coasts. That is a point which the allies are bound to be Investigating in their search for an opening to get at the master gangster. Nasi Feat Fanned B Darlna Raids -.,. ni tho srrat values of such a raid, of course, is to stim ulate the Nazi tear of an inva sion. There Is a salty tang to the bold deeds of the commandos. and even their nam3 rather re minds one of the devil-may-care buccaneers of the old Spanish Main. There is a sort of invit abllity In their raids which you mnv he sure has Its effect on the enemy morule. A constant prodding of the coast by the commandos certain ly would compel the Nazis to man the defenses strongly, from Norway right down the French coast to Brest, tor fear that one of these black-faced expeditions might be the spear-head for a major landing.

C Jap Colonization Will Come High Defense Worker. Want More Ga Furnace Change Won't Be Eaiy , Br John W. Kolly Washington, D. C, April 23 There will probably be five or six relocation centeri for the alien Japanese and their American-born offspring in the west and to these will be assigned groups from Oregon, Washing ton and Idaho. The treatment of the Japanese will be far bet ter than that accorded otner enemv aliens, but the adminis tration recognizes that some of these Japanese may be loyal to the United States and it does not desire to impose any mo. a hardships than are necessary. However, sentiment on the Pa cific coast is so strong against the Nipponese that it is consid ered the best policy to sejregate them but not behind barbed wire except as to those who are regarded as dangerous, Only rough plans for the re location or resettlement have; been drafted, but at this early date It is expected that cost of the colonization will approxl-Ukm policy. This is done by mate $75,000.000 the price of making loans of several thou one battleship or 300 heavy j5and dollars to clients taking bombers. It is agreed that no, over fnrms. Some loans, it is private agency can employ and look after the Japanese In sugar beet fields of the northwest nor are there enough ranchers will ing to take a few. This situation puts the care and welfare of the aliens into the lap of the gov ernment. Officials are considering two methods of selecting relocation centers. One is to lease land and the other is for the govern ment to buy outright. There appears to be not sufficient public domain to provide suit able sites, so it is a case of buy or lease. Opinion leans toward outright purchase where land ran be had tor around $10 an acre. Wherever a relocation center Is established it is to be on raw land. This will require the re moval of sagebrush and develop ment with an irrigation system. The area will be a settlement of agriculturalists, principally, growing crops adapted to the soil and climate. As the plan looks now a settlement will be a small reclamation district. The Japanese will improve the land and, If the government buys It. I the Improvements will belong to the government and some I day. come peace, the improved land ran be sold and the gov ernment recover the cost of development. If leased land , wpi ,he improvements will ISO to the private owner. Fur this reason, purchase of rough land rather than leaving is regarded as a better buslne proposition ooo THE relocation centers (pos sibly eastern Washington, east- i ern Oregon or Idaho will have ! one or more of them will be placed in the hands of the Jap j physicians, dentists. barbers.

DENTISTS SHOULD A reader submits her experi ence, which should interest not only people who take care of their teeth that is to say, report regular ly to the den tist for inspec tion and any necessary clean ing. or treatment) but also dentists who want to hold the con fidence of In tel 1 igent pa tients. "My deritist seemed to have a cold on top of his sinus trou ble, for his eyes were watery and his nose red, and I wonder whether he didn't blow his cold germs into my throat while ex amining and treating that back tooth? "Don't you think all dentists should wear masks when work ing on patients, as a sanitary , I protection to patients? It is cer tainly an uncomfortable situa tion when you are wondering whether the dentist is blowing his cold germs into your mouth or throat while he is working on you." Not only for protection of pa tients against any possible res piratory infection the dentist may have, but also for protec tion of the dentist against any such infection the patient may have, it seems to me that every dentist should wear a suitable mask when examining or treat ing a patient. The mask need not be the uncomfortable gauze mask More efficient and comfortable is a mask made of a sheet of heavy cellophane or of washed non-inflammable X-ray film, as designed and described by Dr. Lewis J. Silvers for nose and throat specialists. The Silvers mask is about 6 to 8 inches, with rounded lower corners, fitted with snap fasteners to attach to a head band, or it might be sup ported in place on a spectacle frame. It may or may not cover the eyes as well as mouth and nose. Being transparent it does not interfere with vision. It stands an inch or so away from the face, leaving space lor air to circulate between mask and face. It may be disinfected or sterilized by simply washing with soap and water or with any antiseptic solution. Such a mask is less hideous in aspect than a gauze mask. It is even a better barrier against passing of the professional men are American-born. Farm security administration is undertaking to assist "clients" in migratory camps and cottage groups to acquire farmlands which have been worked Dy Japanese under the rehablllta asserted, have been made to migratory workers who have little farming background and who cannot or will not work the soil the way the Japanese have done.

Incidentally, not only dentists and physicians doing nose and throat work and their nurses or assistants should wear a mask always when at work, but bar bers, hair dressers, manicures, oculists, optometrists and opti cians should wear masks too. A suitable mask should be a "must" in the working equip ment or technique of every care ful person rendering such per sonal service, not merely when respiratory disease is epidemic. but every day in the year re gardless.
