MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON. THURSDAY, JULY 9, 1942. PAGE THREE JAP NAVY DEFEAT, IS FAVORED PLAN Bj-itish Officer on Mission to U. S. Discusses Best Strategy For Allied Arms. Charlottesville, Va., July 9 (JP) An over-all strategy of de feating Japan by forcing its main fleet into action and conquering Germany through an eventual invasion of continental Europe was outlined as a promising possibility today by Brigadier G. K. Bourne of the British joint staff mission in Washington. The highly-placed staff officer outlined the considerations con fronting the United Nations war planners in an address prepared for the University of Virginia's institute of public affairs but carefully refrained, for military reasons, from defining any spe cific courses of future action which may have been adopted thus far. The Japanese fleet, he ob served, can always avoid the ultimate battle until allied bombers are based within oper ating distances of it. Invasion Never Tried He said a "permanent Inva sion" of the European continent had never been attempted and noted that even at the height of his power, after the fall of France, Hitler refrained from the "uncalculated risks" in volved in an invasion of the British isles. "No military offensive is sound." he said, "unless it is launched from a firm and secure base. People are apt to forget this and to maintain that an offensive must succeed just be cause it is an offensive and for get the need for covering up our soft spots." But, Bourne continued, the United Nations "refuse to be ruled by historic precedent and are determined to find new methods for the final offensive." It might develop, he said, that the allied methods of attacks would have to conform to the principles of Hitler himself. Hitler May Be Right 'In other words," he added, "we may be right in not plung ing ahead into an uncalculated risk but rather beat Hitler at his own game in the preliminary phase; by softening process, by continued blockade, by increas- Musicians Stop Platter Making After August 1 New York. July 9 (JP) The 130,000 members of the American Federation of Mus icians (AFL) will make no more radio transcriptions and Juke box records after August 1, it was announced by union officials today. The order to stop record ings, signed by President James C. Petrillo, went out to the members on June 23 in an effort to end competition of "canned music," the feder ation's headquarters said. ingly intense British and Amer ican bombing, by the threat of invasion and by raids on the model of Cherbourg, and more recently St. Nazaire. Turning to the Pacific, he said Japan had the advantage of fighting on interior lines, and had skillfully arranged succes sive advances in a way which ever gave Nipponese sea forces the advantage of protection from land-based aircraft. This proced ure the allies may have to folr low in their own offensive against the Japanese, he added. As the situation stands, he continued, Japan itself is virtu ally secure from attack from all quarters except Siberia. It may be, he remarked, that the Japs will feel it necessary to elimin ate that source of danger before attempting a further advance to the southward or into India. Japan Vulnerable But Japan is vulnerable, nevertheless, he said, and in the last analysis defends upon her fleet for protection, as does Eng land. The question then was one of forcing the main Japanese fleet into action, and not one of surface actions between battle squadrons. "The increasing effectiveness of air bombing attack and par ticularly of its long range power is the most promising factor for a reasonably quick decision in the Pacific war, he said. Phoenix Safeway's "Store of Tomorrow" Opens Friday . Offering the utmost in con venience and sanitation, Safe way presents the newest ideas in food merchandising in the sparkling new store opening tomorrow at West Main and Oakdale, across from the court house. On entering the door it Is easy to see why Ted Medford, of Klamath Falls, Safeway dis trict supervisor, calls it "the store of tomorrow." After the first glimpse of the many un usual innovations the customer discovers the welcomed lack of congestion in the wide aisles. Recessed florescent lights In the ceiling give the store a day light appearance even though there are no windows in the sides, or roof of the large build ing. The modern store is new from front to back, even a com plete new stock of merchandise is on the shelves and display stands for the opening tomor row. The produce department which is located in the left front comer of the store presents many new merchandising ideas. Only a small quantity of each fruit or vegetable is displayed on the modern new produce racks. The large stock of fruits and vege tables is kept "garden fresh" in a large steel produce cooler located in the stock room, from which the front display will be constantly replenished. The price tags are on the stands and not sticking in the produce itself. The newest Ideas in refriger ation are incorporated in the meat department. There is not one piece of wood in the walk-in meat storage room. It is all stainless steel and as clean and spotless as a home kitchen. Indirect soft white florescent lighting illuminates the triple glass meat display cases. There are four refrigeration machines in the meat department, one for each case, which makes it pos sible to keep perfect refrigera tion in any kind of weather. There are also special wall fans in the meat department. A feature that will appeal to summer shoppers is the air conditioning unit which cools the whole store. One feature, which Is some thing new for food stores and which will not benefit the cus tomer, is tiled shower and rest rooms for men and women em ployees. There are also private lockers for employees. The floor covering of the new Safeway market, which was de signed to relieve the fatigue of market. employees and customers, is a rubberized sponge effect. In the rear corner of the stock room all trash will be disposed of in a built-in incinerator. There is space for 44 cars on the large concrete parking lot which will be floodlighted at night. The exterior of the building is cream with red and black tile under the front windows. There is a permanent marquee over the front sidewalk and heavy screen doors at the entrance. The interior walls are light green and the ceiling is soft cream. The new Safeway store now under construction at Sixth and Bartlett streets is being built on the same plan as the unit opening tomorrow. The mer chandise in these new markets is in the same place In every store so that a customer may visit a Safeway store in any locality and immediately find the items they wish, according to Mr. Medford. The Main and Oakdale store will replace the Main and Holly store. R. J. Maulsby, who has been with Safeway for seven years and is well known here as head of the Main and Holly store, will manage the new T LACK OF INTEREST Registrations for the Medford Girl Scout camp at Lake o' Woods from August 2 to 23 have been very light and it may be come necessary to cancel the entire camp period unless more registrations are received by July IS, according to Mrs. Majorie Pena, who has directed the camp for the last four years.
