The former "unconquerable
Italian arms" are getting the
daylight! thumped out of them
in Egypt by South African and
New Zealand troops. There la
no military sense in this. They
could stay home, and be licked
by the Yugoslavs, who now hold
both the initiative and the refer
endum on the Adriatic, and
terrorize Mussolini's men on one
of their spare fronts, in their
pare time.
Republican leaders are hard
put, they say, for something to
offset the New Deal trick of
Issuing government checks, on
the eve or afternoon of vital
elections. Dependents of soldiers
will get the benefits the day
before the November election.
This does not influence the re
cipient favorably towards the
New Deal. Neither does it make
them mad at the "more abund
ant life" candidates. Providing
tnat individual income tax pay
ments be made the day before
election would neutralize, if not
nullify the effect of federal
manna on tha voters, who are
not equipped to be mad and
glad, at the same time.

Housing Situation Improves
There seems to be some misunderstanding over the
recent appeal in this column for rooms for soldiers'
wives and children, particularly the former.
In some quarters, we are asked with considerable
irony, if the family should double-up or sleep in the
woodshed, so various and sundry "war brides" might
occupy the family's regular sleeping quarters.
"THAT, needless ta say isn't the idea, and we thought
we made the point clear in the editorial in ques
tion. The appeal was made, NOT to those who have no
spare rooms to rent and never have had, but to those
who had, but who made such unreasonable condi
tions, that no satisfactory arrangements could be
made.
This referred particularly to "cantonment prices,"
out of all reason for the

Kaiser, three on the Atlantic and three on the Gulf

England in one day, and 70,000 tons of food and

BELLY BREATHING BOOSTS YOUR CIRCULATION
An early sign of deficient cir
culation, whether from heart
weakness or other cause, is
shortness of
b reath on
slight exertion.
The man or
woman in the
thirties or for
ties who gets
winded or all
out of breath
running a
block should
have a health
examina 1 1 o n
by tha family
Sr. Brady doctor to find
out what is the matter.
Chief function of circulation
Is to carry oxygen to the cells
of the body and carry back to
the lungs from the body, muscle,
glandular cells a load of carbon
dioxide to be blown off from
the lungs.
Breathing and circulation are
Intimately related.
Just as weakening of the heart
or impairment of the circulation
from other cause manifests it
self In shortness of breath or
labored breathing on slight ex
ertion, so shallow or inefficient
breathing causes more or less
deficiency of circulation. In
many chronic non-disabling con
ditions the poor circulation may
be considerably improved by
the regular practice of natural,
correct, belly breathing half a
dozen inflations three or four
times a day. This applies partic
ularly to conditions in which
there is weakness of the heart
and especially in angina pec
toris, coronary thrombosis, dilat
ed heart, valvular leakage, pa
roxysms of tachycardia (exces
sively rapid heart beat) and the
perculiar Irregularity called
fibrillation (two chambers of
heart beating in different rhy
thm, the auricle perhaps 200 or
300 beats per minute, the ven
tricle perhaps little more rapid
than normal, though not so reg
ular).
Natural or belly breathing
aids the circulation through its
effect on pressure within the
abdomen and pressure within
the thorax or chest cavity and
the valves In the veins.
Physiologists refer to natural
(belly) breathing as having a
"booster pump" effect on the
circulation that is, such breath
ing "sucks" blood from the
veins back toward the heart
where it should go, whereas if
breathing is shallow the blood
tends to stagnate in the veins,

our flying fortresses carried a
tail gun for the first time. The
' Japs had become accustomed to
going after the tails of our big
I ships since they found at the
I outset of the war .this part was
i least well protected. The pilot
I of one of the fortresses became
perturbed during the battle,
when he hear the Jap zeroes
zooming in upon the tail of his
ship and the rattle of their
machine gun fire against It.
That happened three or four
times, before he called back to
his rear gunner and asked, in
an exasperated voice, why did
the gunner not knock off those
zeroes before they could unleash
their machine gun fire. The
gunner's classic reply was:
"Hell, captain, they look so
pretty when they explode.
Like his forefathers at Bunk
er Hill, he had been taking their
fire until they got close enough
for him to split their gas tanks
open with his counter-fire. He
had shot down three this way
when the captain spoke, and got
six in all.

From Washington, D. C
Milk Plan Now
Urged by Wallace
Senators to Eye
Coast's Defenses
' Myriad Agencies
Dabble in Rubber
Br John W. Kelly
Washington, D. C, July 20.
For several days last year the
offices of two representatives
from the Pacific northwest
were hounded by a man with a
scheme which he begged them
to sponsor as legislation. The
westerners turned down the vis
itor, but now the same scheme
is proposed by Vice President
Henry A. Wallace. The represen
tatives were asked to offer a bill
which would provide a bottle of
milk for every school child in
the United States, the cost to
be defrayed by congressional
appropriation. The vice presi
dent's plan makes that proposal
look like chicken feed.
When peace comes, said Wal
lace, and Britain and the United
States start to impose the "four
freedoms" on the rest of the
world everyone in the world
(United States is to feed the
world) would be given a quart
of milk every day. Later Wal
lace revised his statement by re
ducing the quart to one pint.
This would require, roughly
400,000 gallons of milk daily for
Washington and 230,000 gallons
for Oregon consumers. While
the cows of the northwest pro
duce more than that, the sur
plus could be shipped to the Chi
nese and the myriads of India.
In Europe goat's milk is the fa
vorite and in Thibet mare's milk
is the delicacy, but Wallace
holds out for cow's milk.
Cordell Hull, secretary of
state, proposes sharing every
thing in this country with the
rest of the nations. No more
tariff walls. Just free trade, if
there is anything to share after
the lend-lease and the war. High
officials are outlining the post
war program rather premature
ly in the opinion of high army
officers. Professional soldiers
predict it will be a long way,
but the chairman of the house
committee on military affairs
hints that the war may end this
year (within six months), or in
1943 anyway.
e e
'THESE post-war plans for a
new kind of world are not im
pressing the senate committee
on military affairs. That com
mittee ha heen combinff the
Pacific coast to learn what de
fense preparations have been
taken. Senator Wallgren of
Washington and Senator Hol
man of Oregon have been pick
ed to head an expedition to
Alaska for a look-see. The com
mittee distinctly is not satisfied
with what they hear is going on
in the Aleutians.
Holman has already made a
confidential report to the com
mittee on what he has found
and did not find on the Oregon
nH Washineton coasts (he was
there when the Japanese subma
rine shellea ron oievens), uui
the committee has not seen fit to
release the report. However,
this Holman report caused
Chairman Bob Reynolds to des-
: . 4U .wial nmmlltue to

Of all the theaters of war,
less has been told the American
public of the Japanese Invasion

reasons of military strategy the
senate committee may make no

authorizing them to proceed
with the manufacture of a syn

invited another oil concern to
