THATXL BE FINE 'Press Dispatch) "Dealing with the achieve ments of Italian troops on U fronts, the Duce said: "I have supreme certitude that to morrow everywhere you will do the same as today." The WPB threatens to cur tail the production of rouge and other cosmetics so dear to the hearts of the fair sex. It will be a sad world, with the eye brows where the Lord put 'em, and no war-paint or foundation cream on the cheek-bones. A couple of valley horsemen have tumbled off their mounts more times than the Prince of Wales, as Demon Oats takes Its toll. They have been advised to Imitate Buffalo Bill In a rock ing chair. The Libyan campaign la mov ing along per schedule and the first German general has been raptured. With the mercury at 124, no hat, and shoes full of desert sand, there is some ex cuse for it. SUPPLY AND DEMAND (Pocho (W. Va ) Time?) "Eight years ago, Ellis Uesn of Cochran's Creek, had 93 head of sheep. In that time he has sold 18 head of ewes. Last spring he sold seven lambs. Today he has one ewe and one lamb. Bears are the answer." "If the carpenter who builds an army camp Is worth $300 per month so is the soldiers who does the fighting. At Chlco. civilian girls who do typing at the air base get seven times as much as the soldiers who are stationed there." (Red niu.'f (Calif.) News.) Sounds fair enough. The people are requested to be "cheerful but not over-optl-mlstic,' due to RAF blasting of Cologne and other Nail nerve centers in the greatest aerial raids In history. On the other hand, the enemy is urged to be as pessimistic as they can over the same everts. They may revel unrestrained In their hard earned pessimism.

Much has been accomplished within this brief six months. American ships, planes and fighting men are on far flung battle fronts. War production has reached a tempo that has astonished the world. The victory of the Coral Sea, the bombing of Tokyo, the pounding of German industrial centers to dust by great armadas of the air these are encouraging signs of what the future has in store. There is, however, little tangible reason for much optimism at this stage of the fight We must, by all means, be realistic in a thoroughly realistic world. ACTUALLY, we have won no real campaigns, conquered no enemy territory. After all, wars are not won without major victories, lo anticipate military successes before they are accomplished fact, to give over to optimism that is unwarranted, can only retard our vital war effort. It is dangerous! We WILL win the victories just as soon as the full military might of America and her allies is brought into play. ,But let us not celebrate them t- -1. sf a a.. tliA "irkAtrif o KIa Til irn n h " is definitely in sight. Our foe is fighting for his life. He will not give up easily or quickly. In the meantime, there are stern days ahead. The bombing of Pearl Harbor, however, made our course clear. We are faced with but one duty and 'one choice. We are convinced of the righteousness of our cause. To that cause we have solemnly pledged our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor. THE role of the U. S. Navy is a gigantic one. Before bold attacks and spectacular-engagements can be attempted there is the important, though less dramatic task of convoying ships to distant battle grounds ana pairomng me inuusanus cf miles of home shores. It is a bij job a job that will call for more and more men and ships. And so, to mark the passing of six months since the treacherous bombing of Pearl Harbor, the navy will observe the occasion in the-only way the axis will undsrstand with a nation-wide campaign for more fighting men. They will be known as the "Avengers of Pearl Harbor." This community of them to swell the navy JUST the other day one thousand Texans volun tooroA tn rpnlncA tha new of the lost Houston. They will be speedily trained to man the new Hous ton ready to avenge the Java Sea sinking. Probably this ceremony was inspiration lor uie r.ation-wide ceremony next Sunday when "Avengers of Peavl Harbor" will take the oath in cities and hamleta throughout the nation. . . ESPECIALLY grat is the need for young men 1 with tpphm'pal training. There is exceptional opportunity for high school graduates opportuni ties for immediate and useful training in numerous fioida r-Junrps for nmnletion of a full colleee edu cation followed by naval school. The navy's farsighted program is aimea ai a back-log of talent for future years. Tn thnao whn hnnfl for a sdendid education, for adventure and travel, and needed service to their country, tne unitea ouue& navy has much to offer. We hope that young men here will recognize this opportunity and will become "Avengers of Pearl Harbor" when the roll is canea at tne pumic cere mony here next Sunday. H. G. News Behind The News By Paul Mallon (OonUnuM from PM" On) muddled situation has been overlooked. Disheartening aspect to the congressmen, however. Is that a year and a half of agitation was necessary to cause centrallied control of war produc'.on in Nelson, so ardently do the vari ous officials fight to retain their authority. If it takes another year and a haU before rubber and gas are put under single control, the war could be over THE unsatisfactory state of. a mhh.r affair in me auv- ernment was illustrated again when President Roosevelt prom ised early solution by manufac turing tires other than rubber. Around the war production, board and the other government bureaus dealing with rubber, no explanation of what FPR hadj in mind was available. It was said politely that the president j una nrnhablv lust talking off hand (meaning he did not know what he was talking about). About IJ or 30 Idi as for mak In wood, tarred roM or steel spring tires without rubber have been submitted to the National Inventors council, but no gov-; ernment rubber authority be heves these will solve the situ I ation. I The other officials swear the public cannot expect tires of. any kind for at least two or three years. They say the only possible solution is synthetic rubber. becaue no more th;m 40,000 to 10,000 tons a er is, must give its full share rolls. reserve officers training most of all, to perform possible from Brazil. They ara pushing the Buta diene process as fast as they can, but if they succeed in all their plants, they say they can furnish only enough tires for military and essential civilian (police, ambulance, etc.) use. Even Donald Nelson was caught short by the president's optimism. His pessimistic state ment (founded on above men tioned ftici.il reached the pub lic Just before Mr. Roosevelt spoke, and Mr. Nelson there upon emerged from his political, but not his rubber, difficulties by adding that he also hoped American ingenuity would save the situation. Here again was a perfect ex ample of division of authority resulting tn chaos. CO also with the administra tlon of gas rationing. Prac tically everybody has been speaking his official piece to the public. Even Assistant War Secretary Patterson issued a public warning a couple of weeks back, althouh no one seems to know exactly how he got In on that particular subject. AS matters stand now Pe- troleum Coordinator Ickes keeps track ot oil and gas (censoring the figures also) and then tells Donald Nelson or Nelson's transportation coordi nator Kastman about It. and this party or these parties of the second part pass the word on1 o Leon lienderson. the party of j the third part, who does the I rationing through his orgAnita tion. I Certainly gas rationing larks single-headed authority, Just as rubber. j If one man could be appoint ! ed to run either or both, and , all the rest told to shut up. existing confusion would at !e;;st be ended and a straight-! line policy wuuld be possible.

Birly Bill. Calif. HYGIENE TOR TH The man past fifty or sixty with prostatic obstruction (blad der trouble from hypertrophy, e n 1 argement, of p r o s t ate) who will not or cannot have the benefit of surgery, may at least avoid much unneces sary t r o u ble and discomfort and perhaps prevent devel opment of ser ious compli cation a by Dr. Brady careful adher ence to good hygiene. He must avoid any indulgence In alcoholic beverage or liquor. He should take pains always to avoid cold feet wearing pre ferably woolen stockings and flannel underclothing whenever the weather is at all cold, espe cially when he rides In an auto mobile for any distance. He should avoid any overdis tension of bladder by emptying bladder regularly at least every two hours. Ha should always drink plenty of water, cold or, if he likes, hot, or perhaps some weak tea. Not less than three pints of water. six glasses daily. He should eat citrus fruits and other fresh fruits freely. He should drink at least a quart of milk dally, or. if he prefers, buttermilk or sour milk such as naturally soured milk or soured skim milk or ar tificially cultured acidophilus milk. It Is a mistake to avoid water or liquids or this and that food because some one Imagines it "bad for the kidneys." Fifty per cent of men who de velop prostatic enlargement after fifty or sixty never have any obstructive symptoms at all, and In a good many who do the bladder trouble Is temporary. Prostatic massage has brought prolonged relief to the annoying symptoms In many cases so treated in the first stage stage of frequency and difficulty In tempting bladder. Medical diathermy and hot sltz baths are beneficial in some cases. At fifty a man should have seven hours of undisturbed sleep at night, and when he finds it necessary to get up more than once in the night it is high time for him to consult his physician about the state of his prostate. At sixty a man should sleep six hours, and may have to get up once in the night. Salem. June 2. (JP) Oregon berry growers, attempting to in fluence the government to estab lish a price for their crops that will bring them a fair return, voted here last night to call on Senator McNary for help. The growers said they would telegraph McNary today asking him to see that strawberry growers get nine cents a pound for their crop. Under price control regula tions, canners could not afford to pay that price, the growers said. Communications Crtle.

X-ray treatment has given re lief to the symptoms in a fair number of cases In the first stage of prostatic enlargement, when patients are not good subjects for surgery or refuse to submit to necessary surgical treatment.

JVoSSr, l?ao p m. Kelly's Comment From Waahlagtoa, D. C Few Cart Running Year From Now Defense Worker Facing Problem Babies Barred For WAAC By Jeha W. Kelly . Washington, D. C, June 1 A survey reveals that one year from today only 13 per cent of all the passenger automobiles now licensed will be in service in the Pacific northwest The remainder, the 87 per cent, will be Junk, a body without tires, regardless of the optimism of President Roosevelt, who be lieves some substitute for rub ber will be discovered and the civilian population will drive on that unknown ersatz. By the end of three months 20 per cent of the cart will be off the road. In six months an other 30 per cent will be per manently disposed of in "grave yard or garage, and 37 per cent will struggle along for 12 months on present rubber. These cars account for the 87 per cent. Only eight per cent of present cars will be rolling for 18 months and only four per cent expect to be running by May, 1944. Cars with new tires and only a short distance to travel daily represent the one per cent calculated to be on rubber for four years to May, 1946. And that, according to a sur vey, accounts for all the pas senger cars now cluttering northwest highways and streets. If the war continues four more years only one per cent of all present cars will see the finish. From WPB down to OPA the statement is made that no genu ine rubber nor any plastic sub stitute will be available for ci vilians for at least three years, if then. This Is one fact that sticks out in all this discussion of rubber. THE survey has been taken with particular attention to the west coast because of the bil lions of dollars of war contracts now under way in that section. Transportation is vital and with out tires the whole program will be slowed down. How long present tires will last was estimated by workers. It is as serted that the west coast sur vey is similar to sampling in other sections of the country: that it reflects the entire condi tion from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Eighty per cent or more working in western war plants, whether in Los Angeles, Seattle or Portland, use automobiles in reaching their Jobs when there is insufficient means for han dling mass transportation. The study discloses also that the full capacity of a car is not used. Full capacity is rated at 4.4 per sons, but the average car has a load of 1.8, which includes the driver. Capacity load is being urged upon all drivers to save tires, and if the driver charges a dime for each passenger for gasoline and wear on tires that is O.K. with the office of de fense transportation, at whose head is Joseph Eastman, bor rowed for the Job from inter state commerce commission. Bear in mind the name East man and the ODT, for Eastman and his organization will be the last word on moving of pas sengers and freight; for priori ties on seats in a bus or rail road coach in the days ahead. It will be his job to see that, somehow, workers in war indus tries arrive at their place of employment. If drivers do not carry a capacity load volun tarily they will be compelled to do so. Staggering hours will be adopted to keep mass transpor tation operating at top speed. No steel rails are available for extension of street ear lines and buses are hard to get. THE scores of small dehy drating plants In the northwest will be provided with finances to exnand and given a guaranty that their product will be sold at a profit. This is the latest plan of the department of agri culture to Increase production of foodstuff and preserve it. A recent compilation of all the establishments, large and small, in Oregon and Washington was submitted to the department. giving capacity of each and the type of vegetable or fruit in the j vicinity of each plant. Tha com Dilation was prepared to show I Secretary W 1 e k r d ' agency what could be expected if a large dehydrating program was proposed. Secretary Wickard is now making hia proposition; he desires all the dehydrated fruits and vegetables the plans can process and if money is needed to enlarge facilities he will see that the processor obtains it. Food in this condensed form Is for lend-lease. ORDERS of army officers that members of the women's auxiliary corps will not be per mitted to have babies have not slowed down the rush to Join the organization. If a WAAC wishes to have a baby she will be given an honorable discharge as quickly as the papers can be made out War department is quite strict about this, aa in their service the WAAC may be sent to any part of the world where American troops are op erating. No difficulty is ex pected in recruiting to the full strength of the corps (possibly because of the uniform), but the army is having all aorta of trouble in finding enough nurses, Job which pays better than for privates In the WAAC organization. salvage HALT IS CALLED Boy and Girl Scouts have "licked" the waste paper sal vage problem for the time being according to word received to day from the national head quarters of the Boy Scouts of America. A telegram was re ceived in Medford today which read. "Representatives of paper industry and Bureau of Indus trial Conservation of War Pro duction board reveals such a magnificent job has been done in collection waste paper that excess supply ia available. Please take necessary action locally." Boy Scouts of the Crater Lake area council which com prises Jackson and Josephine counties Oregon and Siskiyou county, Calif., have done more than their share in this nation wide program. Girl Scouts have worked on the same prob lem in Medford and locally 400,- 000 pounds of paper have been shipped to reduction plants. This represents close to eight carloads which has been col lected, sorted and bundled by these groups. Local citizens who have suit able storage space are asked to continue saving newspapers and magazinea as they may be needed again this fall. Other types of paper should again be destroyed as they create a con siderable fire hazard. No further collections will be made by the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts until further public notice. Agale Road Work Is Delayed by Weather Bad weather has delayed start of work on straightening of the road between Bybee bridge over Rogue river and the Agate schoolhouse. but county equip ment was moved to the scene yesterday, County Engineer Faul B.
