IS WOUNDED
IN NEW TRADES
Van Nuys, Cal. U.R) Sparkl
ing film actress Jinx Falkenberg
tilted her head and the pencils
raced over drawing boards as
more than' a score of convales
cent soldiers turned their
thoughts from the battlefield to
the peaceful art of portrait paint
ing. The scene was the army's Bir
mingham general hospital in pic
turesque San Fernando Valley,
where hundreds ot Southern
California soldiers are recuperat
ing 1rom war wounds and
learning a peacetime trade at the
same time.
The art class is only one of
many types of classes in which
veterans are training themselves
for new jobs and rehabilitating
themselves for old ones.
Learn Radio Repair
Men who were shoe clerks be
fore the war will open their own
radio repair shops because they
have learned how to build a
radio set while still in a wheel
chair. Others, who drove trucks in
civilian life, will emerge from
the hospitals as typists, offering
drastic changes in their occupa
tional potentialities.
When the primary purpose of
such therapy is to provide the
war wounded patients with self
confidence, the. results have far
exceeded the original motive,
hospital attendants reported.
Typing Opens Fields
In the typewriting group more
than 100 patients have learned
the keyboard and have become
moderately fast typists since the
class began three months ago.
One patient, with a head injury
which paralyzed his side, is
learning to type to regain the
use of his hand.
But the majority have express
ed the desire to make typing an
integral part of their postwar
work. And so it Is in the other
fields.
In the radio repair class only
one patient in a group of 30 had
any previous technical radio ex
perience. Now the entire class
can take a set apart, repair it
and even build their own seta.
Several of the men plan to aban
don their previous occupations
and open up repair shops.
Aid From Experts
Civil service and companies
with foreign holdings are as
sured trained veterans with new
found skills in foreign languages
or advanced mathematics
through these classes.
To top oft the group instruc
tion, individual help is given by
members of the Hollywood
writers mobilization to veterans
interested in a writing career,
while a group of talented and
famous artists are instructing in
sketching, painting and drawing.
These are just a few of the
classes, which include a variety
of subjects and trades, such as
theatrical make-up, radio script
writing, airport management,
voice Instruction, aircraft assem
bly and construction, and modi
fied engineering.

By United Press
Tokyo said that two B-29 Su
perfortresses flew over the main
Japanese home island of Honshu
today for more than an hour,
presumably on reconnaissance
in preparation for bombing at
tacks on Tokyo and other key
targets.
A German DNB dispatch sttld
the giant planes flew over Tokyo
Itself at noon..
The two Superfortresses pene
trated the Kanto area eastern
Honshu, including Tokyo about
1 p. m Tokyo time and "fled
southward" an hour later, a Ja
panese home broadcast record
ed by FCC monitors said.
It was the third time In a
week that the Japanese have re
ported Superfortresses over the
Kanto area of Honshu. Neither
today nor on the previously re
ported flights last Wednesday
and Sunday, however, did the
Japanese claim to have shot
down any of the giant bombers.

FREIGHT ROUTE
' Anchorage, A 1 a s k a (U.R)
Mud as stiff as putty clung to the
wheels of his 37-passenger ve
hicle as Kenneth O Harra of An
chorage edged across a half
washed out bridge on the first
bus trip over the Alaska mill
tary highway but despite the
hazardous driving conditions he
holds steadfastly to the belief
that the road has great potential
commercial value.
O'Harra, only 34-year-old pio
neer Alaska busline operator,
and two mechanics, Donald
Cross and Charles Porter,
brought the big bus here from
Columbus, O., a total of 4,743
miles, in ten and one-third days
of driving time.
O'Harra, who will use the ve
hicle for the first scheduled bus
line operation between Anchor
age and Fairbanks, praised the
section of the highway between
Dawson Creek, B. C, and An
chorage but said the southern
section of the road from Edmon
ton. Alberta, to Dawson Creek
is inadequate for heavy trans
portation. Spring floods knocked
out several bridges, forcing O'
Harra to make long detours, and
turned the road into a quagmire
in many sections.
One day, he said, they were
able to travel only 16 miles be
cause the bus slipped over the
mud and into ditches alongside
the road. Another time, the bus
was dragged by seven caterpillar
tractors over a 120-mile washed
out section.
O'Harra said accommodations
were good along the road with
gasoline and oil available at sta
tions every hundred miles. Meals
and lodging were available at
army engineer roadhouses.
"I feel that a lot of motor
freight could be moved over the
road after the war if it is proper
ly maintained," O'Harra stated.
"Also the road offers an ideal
vacation route because It passes
through some of the most scenic
sections ot the continent. And
that's saying a lot, because the
coast of Alaska also has many
scenic spots.
