Rocky Kodiak Island To Have Garden This Spring; Land Is Poor Fort Greely, Kodiak, Alaska (U.R Kodiak island, hitherto considered Just a rocky, wet home for bear and salmon, has agricultural plans this year. Lt. Eugene L. Russell, grad uate of the Oregon State College of Agriculture, is thumbing through seed catalogs these days for rugged strains of vitamin packed vegetables and small fruits. Gen. Charles H. Corlett de cided that Fort Greely should become self-sustaining In green stuffs, and he selected Lieut. Russell to start production. Chief problem with the Kod iak soil Is the heavy volcanic ash deposit, which came sifting down from the tremendous Mt. Katmal eruption in 1912. Two Kodiak Islanders have re ported success in raising lettuce, cauliflower, peas, beans, and po tatoes. They have been using scraped land, however, from which volcanic ash has been re moved by laborious toil. Such a process for the pro posed 10-acre experiment plot at Fort Greely would be Imprac tical, so Lieut. Russell will try to "sweeten" the ash with fer tilizers and legume cover crops. "A large percentage of our plants will have to be raised in hotbeds and then set out when I the sunlight season arrives, re ! ports Russell. Uncle Sam is making the Desi of a tough nutritional Job on Kodiak island. Every bit of food, with the exception of ex- ' perimental radish, cabbage, and potato supplies, must be prougnt in by boat. LARRY SCHADE' r r. Remind 4 - astute Sto"" Your Favorite Jeweler Since 1911 Select t '-.- li'itrn'. I a.ev : WTe as ias ft aTiis)! AT SECRET BASE FOR MASS DRIVE By E. C. Daniel London, June 27 (IP) A large vanguard of th United States army air corps is estab lished in the British Isles and is making preparations at a secret base to bomb Germany soon In mass attacks coordinated with those of the Royal air force. This was learned today from reliable Informants who declin ed to Identify themselves for quotation. How far the preparations nave advanced and the actual size of American aerial units were military secrets, but au thoritative sources said the men were already deployed to loin the great assaults such as those on Bremen, Cologne. Essen Rostock, Luebeck and other German Industrial or shipping centers. It was not disclosed whether a sufficient number of planes had been amassed for an ell- American striking force, but as long ago as April 21 lt was an nounced that bombers for use of United States airmen in wing to wing attacks with the RAF were being ferried across the Atlantic. HONORED FLIERS GIVE DETAILS OF Washington, June 27 P) Twenty chree army filers who took part In the American raid on Japan last April 18, received distinguished flying crosses to- aay at nearby Boiling field. The airmen, who returned to this country recently, brought additional details of the havoc and confusion wrought by the raiders in attacking Tokyo and rour other cities on April 18 They also disclosed that the secret Norden bombslghts were left behind because of risk they might fall Into enemy hands. An Improvised bombslght cost ing only twenty cents to make, but adequate for hitting targets from the extremely low altiudes at which the raiders flew, was substituted in each of the planes. One plane, piloted by Major Charles R. Greening, Tacoma, Wash., shot down two Japanese pursuers. Other filers reported scoring hits on some of the rela tively few defending planes which went Into action. "The lack of pursuit opposi tion, the lack of warnings be tween cities, and the inaccuracy of anti-aircraft fire were factors which mystified, and continued to mystify, all who took part in the raid", the war department said In a statement prompted by the return of the fliers. One Inch of rainfall over a tingle acre of ground means a fall of 113'i tons of water, or 27.143 gallons. Stock ol a t sreje V r.Kti i' Nou ror - Booklets, Slide Films Also Used To Aid Workers In Vital War Positions. Detroit, OJ.P.V- The Briggs Manufacturing Company, build er of automobile bodies in peace time, is relying heavily on mo tion pictures, slide films and generously illustrated booklets to help convert its manpower to war production jobs. With more than $375,000,000 worth of orders for aircraft and tank parts, Briggs will require 36.000 men and women at peak war output, an increase of 50 per cent over its peacetime pay rolls. It has seven plants In Michigan, Ohio and Indiana. Approximately 20,000 men, most of them former auto body workers and supervisory em ployes, will be trained in the Briggs aircraft school, according to Henry J. Roesch, in charge of personnel. The firm already is in volume production on air frame sections. Waste Is Villian One teacher with a major role in the training program is "Dan ny Defense," a ubiquitous little man with an overseas cap. "Dan ny" shows himself on virtually every film and ever: page of the printed booklets. He teaches workers "the easy way, the right way" to weld rivet and drill. His three-point program is: "know your Job, follow instructions and keep your mind and eyes on the Job." "A pilot Is depending on the quality of the work you do to day," he tells novices time and again. One of Danny's most effective contributions Is dramatizing the story of waste waste of critical materials such as aluminum Waste is pictured as the "vil lain" of the film and "Danny" tells the workers that, In the last analysis, "you fellows have to foot the bill for that waste." Aluminum Is Soft "Your tax money is paying for defense production," "Danny" emphasizes. "If you increase the cost, you're taking money right out of your own pocket. So don't you think it's about time we did something about this enemy, 'waste?" Briggs Impresses upon Its workers that by taking an ac tive interest In the slide-films and motion pictures and by stu dying the booklets they will be able to learn details about their Jobs which took others many "long, hard years." Auto workers, accustomed to working with steel, need careful Instruction before they are able to handle softer metals such as aluminum. A small dent or scratch on the frame of an auto body does not affect the strength of the part; a similar scratch on a piece of soft aluminum in air craft production will make the piece useless. No matter how skilled they may be workers are told they will be more valuable in air craft production if they know how to "handle and protect vital materials. YOUTHS SENTENCED Dallas, June 27 IIP) Henry Bamett, 18, and Raymond Allen. 17, were sentenced to three years each in the state peniten tiary yesterday by Circuit Judge Arlle G. Waker for auto theft and Jail break. Jack Truall, 17, and Donald Riley, 17, similarly Charged, were referred to the state patrol board.

Washington, June 27 (IP) It would be a mistake to erase county fairs for the war's dur ation, Senator McNary, long noted for his efforts cn behalf of agriculture, declared today. He wrote Herman H. Chind- gren, president of the Oregon fairs association that defense transportation Director Joseph B. Eastman had no authority over fairs. Eastman had asked deferment of fairs as a mans of saving tires and eliminating unneces sary traveling. "If use of gasoline and rubber need be deferred," Senator Mo Nary said, "the rule of defer ment should first be applied to the great race tracks and ball parks in the east which attract more people to one event than the county fairs In a dozen west ern states." The United Service Organiza tion drive la meeting fine re sponse in Jackson county ac cording to John Moffet, perma nent USO drive chairman for the county. He stated yesterday that the residents are "pleased to give" to the campaign snd among Uie many olicitatloM made only a few have been re fusals. The drive, which comes to close July 1, Is part of a nation al campaign to raise funds for recreational purposes of men In the armed forces of America. Quota set for Jackson county la $7,000 and Ashland has com pleted its portion of the drive. Women who would care to vol unteer their service as solicitors are urged to contact USO rep resentatives at the chamber of commerce.
