The Oregon coast was shelled,
without damage late Sunday,
persumably and probably, by a
Japanese submarine, on nuisance
bent. All should hope its com

war. Bids on some 3,000,000
other decorations were also
asked. All this is a cheerful
chirp, Indicating arrangements
re underway for a trip to Tokyo
I well as Berlin.
Secy. Ickes contributes
cheerful note to the prevailing
gloom. "The next hundred
years will be the easiest," he In

of this happy century the Harry

come to pass that Instead of

For Home Consumption?
The mystery surrounding these Jap token raids on
Pacific Coast tourist spots, is somewhat reduced by
the Tokio reaction.
Last night one of the official Nipponese "spokes
men" without cracking a smile, proclaimed by short
wave radio the entire Pacific Coast of North America
to be in a panic because of these devastating U-boat
depredations, and Bmall wonder tor, such action
clearly demonstrated the American fleet had become
so weakened by reverses at Midway and Coral Sea,
that it could not protect Pacific Coast shores "where
some of the greatest concentrations of ship, air and
war production in the entire United States were
assembled !"

June 13th An Unlucky Day!
It now develops the British were really beaten in
North Africa over a week before Tobruk fell.
On June 13th, the full British tank corps, answered
a radio command to attack a certain sector which
proved to be a clever Rommel ambush with the re
sult that the British mechanized strength was disas
trously depleted.
In boxing parlance, it was a terrific hook to the
jaw from which J. Bull never recovered. He fought
on blindly, and courageously, but the blow was in
reality a technical K. O. there was nothing to do,
but salvage what could be saved and call it a day.
History will probably record that under the circum
stances the British did well only to lose Tobruk and
less than 20 of the personnel.

"HIS report coming from London, must be essen
tially correct and throws a revealing light upon
the Churchill visit.
It was undoubtedly the
reverse had occurred in Libya, resulting in a critical
situation through the Middleast, that prompted the
momentous hurry-up call for a conference with
President Roosevelt. The British Prime Minister,,
leaving as soon after the unexpected defeat as proper
preparations rendered necessary would have reached
this country about the time he did.
Which means that topic
agenda, in all liklihood is, and has been from the
first, what must be done by the United Nations to
prevent this serious setback in North Africa from
developing into a major disaster.
What Our Army Signs Mean
With boundaries of important military districts in
Oregon and Washington now designated by conspicu
ous signs, Army authorities have issued an explana
tion of what the signs mean and to whom they apply.
In cooperation with the
ington highway departments and the United States
Forest Service furnished crews for posting some ZUUU
signs which will warn enemy aliens that certain areas
are either prohibited or restrictel territory.
The sictis are marked either "Military Area JNo. l
Zone A Prohibited" or "Military Area No. 1 Zone B
Restricted", depending upon
DOUGHLY speaking, Military Area No. 1 is the
western half of Oregon and Washington, the
remaining sections of the two states comprising part
of Milita.y Area No. 2. All that portion of Oregon
and Washington lying generally west of Highway No.
99 is termed Zone A and given numerical designation
A-l to differentiate it from
where. Zone B is the remainder of Military Area No.
1 between Highway No. 99 and the western edge of
Military Area No. 2.
In addition, however, there are additional Zone B
i.reas lying outside Zone A-l, etither in Military Area
No. 1 or in other Military Areas, covering such vital
districts as pir fields, power plants, radio towers and
bridges. These other Zone A areas are numbered
from Zone A-2 to A-1033.
A LL Zone A areas are designated as prohibited
areas and are marked accordingly with signs
bearing the word "Prohibited". Zone B is a restric
ted region aivl its eastern boundary, which is also the
eastern boundary of Military Area No. 1, is marked
accordingly with signs bearing the world "Restrict
ed". All Japanese are barred from entering or being in
both the restricted area and the prohibited area after
the order has been issued evacuating them from these
regions. In other words, Japanese coming upon
either a "Restricted" or "Prohibited" sign will not

of calcium in food, water or

utilization of calcium in the

whether this faulty calcium
metabolism, so commonly found
in chronic so-called rheumatoid
or hypertrophic or atrophic ar
thritis and in bursitis as well, is
a causative factor or merely one
of the manifestations or effects
of the ailment.
I'm sorry about this, for I did
hope, from the way things were
shaping up, that we might soon
have In the newer knowledge of
calcium metabolism a key to the
riddle of rheumatism, a key that
might free many sufferers who
are more or less handicapped or
disabled by arthritis or bursitis.

at any rate, it would seem that
the calcification is a manifesta

we cannot be sure about that.
The role of calcium in the Ills
called rheumatism is not quite
clear, altho it is not nearly so
shadowy and unsubstantial as
the role of "uric acid" in the
hypothetical condition called
gout. Deposits of mono-sodium-urate
(chalky material) in the
tissues, formerly assumed to
characterize gout, are observed

probably never will have any

diagnosed as gout or rheumatiz

blood fails to show any consis

uric acid present normally from
the amount present in gout. In
short "gout" or a "tendency"
to gout is today a, charlatan's
vagary.
The faulty calcium metabolism
which is nearly always found in
chronic arthritis and bursitis is
of uncertain significance but to

From Washington. D. C
Carrier Building
Gets Green Light
Yards Everywhere
To Receive Order
Pierce For CPA
Without Ickes
By John W. Kelly
Washington, D. C, June 23
Marvin Mclntyre, presidential
secretary, examined the rolls of
blueprints opened on his desk
by the shipbuilder from the
northwest. The shipbuilder ex
plained that these were draw
ings for aircraft carriers and
that he was prepared to build
100 of them before the end of
1943 18 months by the calen
dar. If there Is anything the
United States wants now it is
carriers, since the war has taken
wings and aerial combat is all
important. Secretary Mclntyre
took the visitor and the blue
prints in to see "the boss."
The president devoted 10 min
utes to discussion, scarcely look
ed at the blueprints and did not
call In a navy man to go over
the plans. He wanted to know
the size of the carriers, their
speed, the number of planes
they could carry, how long it
would take to build them, the
estimated cost, then ordered Mc
lntyre to send a directive to the
navy department to get this pro
gram under way. Cost of the
carriers (the "boss" cut the num
ber the shipbuilder suggested
from 100 to 88) is approximate
ly $400,000,000.
A few days later Chairman
Vinson of the house committee
on naval affairs said his com
mittee had approved a new
'naval building program esti
mated at $8,553,000,000 which
would concentrate on carriers
and make no provision for bat
tleships; that all battleship con
struction would cease; that cruis
ers now in the yards would be
transformed into carriers; that
hundreds and hundreds of small,
swift craft will be built. Work
on the carriers is to start Imme
diately. Overnight the carriers became
the backbone of the fleet. A new
era in the navy was dawning,
just as when the Monitor and
the Merrimac in Hampton Roads
ended the era of the wooden
frigate. There was some grum
bling in the Army and Navy
club, opposite Farragut square,
by retired admirals who still
insist airplanes are Just weap
ons and that the battleship will
always be the trump card in a
naval engagement; that mortali
ty among battlewagons is the
result of "lucky hits."
YARDS everywhere, Atlantic,
Gulf, Pacific coast, are to have
orders for carriers. They will,
for the most part, be a relative
ly small type no more of the
Lexingtons with a speed be
tween 20 and 30 knots and a
deck to carry 32 planes, not the
great flock of planes assigned
to the large carriers, so if a
carrier is destroyed and num
ber of planes lost will be rela
tively small. About 20 carriers
can be built for the cost of a
single battleship possibly more
Cost will be somewhere between
$4,000,000 and $5,000,000 each.
Bremerton navy yard and pri
vate shipbuilding plants on
Puget sound, now working on
destroyers, "C" type cargo car
riers, etc., are to have all the
orders they can take care of.
Columbia river will have 44
carriers; Riverside, Cal., anoth
er 44. The Portland Job will
aggregate seme $200,000,000.
There will be some delayed del
iveries of the cargo ships for the
maritime commission in order
that yards may shove in these
carriers, but if there is to be a
curb on submarine hostilities
the first step is more carrier-
based planes in hazardous
waters.
Eastern builders are re-planning
their yards to expedite fab
ricating the carriers, but the rec
ord will go to the northwest.
BARGAIN
Consider building 44 carriers in
72 weeks.
WALTER M. PIERCE, Oregon
congressman for public owner
ship of power, testified before
the joint committee on the
Bone-Smith bill for a Columbia
Power Authority that he is for
the bill and then he carefully
dismembered the measure. In
the first place. Pierce does not
want Secretary Ickes as the last
word on CPA policies and he
wants a local advisory board.
which was the plan of Senator
Bone a year ago when he was
feuding with Ickes. In the mat
ter of revenue bonds with which
to buy out private utilities (all
in the northwest states, as Bone
has admitted) Pierce wants the
bonds to cover the particular
private company and not be an
obligation on the entire power
svstem: make . each system ac
quired stand upon its own feet.
He warned against a puonc
successor to private holding
companies; said there should be
no bargaining behina ciosea
doors and pointed to the so
called scandal of the Seattle
street railway purchase.
WITH so many conflicting re
ports on the Alaska situation a
demand is growing that the
navy, or army, drive the Japs
out of the islands. A navy
spokesman stated that the small
islands the Japs had landed on
are barren and of small conse
quence, but critics point out that
they are of value to the Japa
nese for it gives them a toehold
on lands of the United States
and that they have made an in
vasion, regardless of what the
navy says, and makes difficult
the bombing of Japanese cities
or a flight to the Russian pos
sessions in Siberia.
