Japanese Impotence
Attacks upon Dutch Harbor by the Japanese did
not even cause a ripple of excitement in the United
States, in direct contrast to the ocenes of utter hys
teria that prevailed for days in Tokyo following the
attack upon that city by American bomber planes
several weeks ago. '
The American calm in the wake of this first bomb
ing raid ever made on North American soil is based
on the solid foundation of confidence to meet any
thing the Japs can bring. The entire west coast has
been cleared of Japanese aliens and intensive prep
arations have been made to repel land, sea or air
attacks by the brown barbarians.
This is the great difference between Americans
and Japanese, between civilized and barbarous peo
ples. Americans know the danger and do not flinch
from it, as soon as minor retribution overtakes the
simple-minded Japs they are terror-stricken.

Reclaiming Rubber
COME of the developments around the question of
rubber supply have to do with the reclamation of
rubber from a reserve of used rubber commonly
called "the scrap heap."
It is claimed in some circles that there are 10,000,
000 tons of such rubber available in the United States
and a program is in the course of formulation that
will undertake to recapture this stock at a rate of
800,000 to 1,000,000 tons a year. These figures prob
ab!y are optimistic, but that a huge stock pile of used
rubber can be assembled is incontrovertible.
Apparently part of the program will invoke the
service of 120,000 volunteers throughout the United
States who will be directed by the industrial con
servation section of the War Production Board.
In the meantime Jesse Jones, secretary of com
merce and federal loan administrator, is convinced
that through this reclamation of rubber stock piles
can be greatly augmented. He says the Reconstruc
tion Finance Corporation is ready to finance the con
struction of reclaiming plants.
This latest rubber move
for synthetic rubber production will be curtailed, but
it does signify that the government is determined not
to neglect any possible means of rubber supply relief.
Rubber will continue to be made available for all
military needs, but the speed with which a synthetic
source can be developed will determine whether
there will be relief fpr civilian transportation needs,
now faced with an acute tire shortage, before the end
of the war or soon thereafter. R.S.

The government economists
are clicking their teeth about it
because it will make the nation's

$24,000,000,000 a year, only
about one-fourth of our national
Income and that income may go
to $120,000,000,000 by the time
the bill becomes effective. They
all say It therefore cannot be a
guarantee against inflation.
Mr. Mnrgenthau first asked
for a $7,600,000,000 bill and
then sent up supplemental re
quests which would bring it up
to 8 (100.0(10.000. As it stands

DEFORMITY FROM TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR
My husband and I like your
column and have both derived
real benefit from it, but
(Oh-oh, we're
In trouble
again) but,
really. Dr.
Brady, a wom
an still likes
to have some
thing to drape
a bustle on. In
your simple
test of good
posture you
said:
"Stand with
Dr. Brady back to wall,
back of head, spine at level of
shoulders, buttocks and heels
Just touching the wall and the
small of your back."
That's what the teachers
stressed In grade school and I
grew to look like this. (This
correspondent enclosed a sketch
of profile with nary a curve
from back of head to heels.) If
you can suggest how to correct
my round-shouldered, protrud-ing-tummied
slump I shall be
grateful. (Mrs. J. F.)
Once upon a time I mentioned
a tapeworm remedy and ex
plained why a certain purge
must be taken within a speci
fied time following the dose of
vermifuge. The puie got lost
in the printing, and it would
have done some of my medical
colleagues good to see me pac
ing the floor and wringing my
hands for the next week or so
waiting to hear how many casu
alties there would be from the
vermifuge. Since that experi
ence I have been careful, I can
tell you.
Was my face red when I dug
up the original copy I gave the
printers and found that error
this time was my own.
Why doesn't somebody tell
me when my advice seems ab
surd? Oh, well, maybe that's
the way it always seems to some
people. Still, I'd hardly advise
anybody to try to touch the
small of the back with buttocks
and heels, now, would I?
Honestly I meant to slip the
thickness of the two hands be
tween the wall and the small of
the back. If it is not too late to
undo the damage, I think the
lady will have another go at it,
this time with the thickness of
the hands between wall and
small of back, she will be de
lighted to find she has some
thing to drape that bustle or
curves to that effect.

Air Raid Lookout's Notes
Help Pass Tedious Watch
By Maud Pool
Big Applegate (Spl.) A cross section of entertaining
opinions, ranging from a prayer for the boys in service to grudges
at the gasoline situation and the weather are revealed in a humor
ous note book some air raid watcher has left at an Applegate ob
servation post for penciled comment during the tedious six-hour
watches. Some have expressed enjoyment in their freedom from
home tasks while on duty.
The bleak little house setting
by the side of the road, with a
mere stove pipe to add interest,
is familiarly and affectionately
(?) dubbed "the dog house,"
which title supplies the theme
of the remarks volunteered,
some of which follow:
"I am having it pretty easy
so far, being in a dog house, it
reminds me of being an Irish
setter, but I might be as busy
as an Australian shepherd if

and it wouldn't blow your hair

Rubber Salvage
Drive Planned
Tire to Furnish
Principal Supply
Dried Fruit Will
Find Big Demand
By Jaha W. Knr
Washington, D. C June 6
Months ago this column an
nounced WPB would launch a
salvage drive for wornout tires.
Nothing happened, however,
until a special committee of the
senate began digging into the
rubber situation and as a result
of what the committee learned.
nationwide salvage Is to bah
inaugurated for tirea or any
thing containing rubber.
The senate special committee
(its report has not been publish
ed yet) discovered that there
have been three obstacles In the
way of meeting tne tire short
age, which caused one commit
teeman to observe: "A hog Is a
hog In peace or war; human
nature does not change.
In the first line obstruction Is
listed the "big four" tire manu
facturers. These concerns have
had control of the tire produc
tion business. They do not wish
to see rubber substitutes devel
oped and new competition creat
ed for the post-war period. A
big-shot, connected with the
"big four," is a key man with
WPB. The big oil companies
which have patents on synthetic
rubber want only the substitute
that can be made from petro
leum products. The group of No.
1 distillers did not wish to make
industrial alcohol from wheat
and corn; they preferred to use
sugar. Alcohol is required for
manufacturing explosives, but
from alcohol can also be pro
duced a rubber substitute. There
was a selfish interest in each of
the three powerful groups.
By dint or prying and prod
ding the committee caused the
department of agriculture to
undertake production of alcohol
for butadiene from the large
surplus of wheat, which will be
a relief to many wheat growers,
the Inland empire having more
grain than it knows what to do
with. Months will be required to
transform wheat into synthetic
tires, but the initial steps are be
ing taken. This is a victory for
the committee.
IN the Investigation the sena
torial probers found there is a
mountain of real rubber avail
able the wornout tires, which
experts declare can be made
serviceable by treatment. These
witnesses said the rubber from
wornout tires can be separated
from the cotton carcass and the
salvaged material will be virtu
ally as good as rtew rubber, pro
viding enough tires for millions
of vehicles. And that is where
the soon-to-be national rubber
salvage drive comes in.
No one knows or can hazard
a guess as to the number of
millions of tons of discarded
tires are kicking around the
country. These wornout tires
have been accumulating for 10
or 15 years. There are about 30
million motor vehicles (passen
ger cars) In the United States
and each car has contributed
at least four tires to the scrap
heap. On farms in the northwest
discarded tires are in every barn
There is not a private garage
that has not at least one, and
usually more, old tires In the
corner. Public garages nave
piles of them.
The trick now Is to gather up
these castoff tires and ship them
to a plant in New England to be
worked over into good rubber.
The Junkman is to perform this
service. Owners of old tires are
being requested to place them
in the yard, together with any
other wornout rubber articles,
such as broken garden hose,
overshoes, etc., where the Junk
man can get them. If the repro
cessing of these tires works out
as the senate committee was as
sured it would there will be
come tires available from this
source this year long before
synthetic rubber from wheat or
petroleum can be manufactured,
it is asserted.
YAKIMA, Hood River, The

centers of the northwest can sell

that it will purchase all offered.
The fruit must be dehydrated or
