Aoffut Z, 1041 THE EVENING HERALD, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON TAGE NTNt lAR 5CIENG E G EASES S WAR GO E By FETCH EDSON WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 On of th mora matins; and frightful aipaeti about the "telanea" of modern war la tho way It haa of developing while Jn progreii. And th uncensored jLtporl of observer returning to the United Slates bear proof that every day. In every way, It Is becoming worter and worser. Th can of airplane apeed and armament I perfect example of war' Increasing efficiency. It wai only two yean ago that th ihootlng began how time date fly but In th lovely har veit season of 'SB, an airplane that could do 380 mile an hour wai all right. Today It mint do 400 to 450, or ba ihot down. Airplane engine that could rate 1000 or 1500 horiepower could , get by, but today 2000 h. p. la a minimum, and 2600 or better must be achieved toon If there is to be superiority In the air. Plane that could ellmb to 30. 000 feet war aaf Jn '30, but today they must reach 40,000. Two maehln guna and on can non mad combat plane pretty formidable In th old daya, but .today thy peek three or four Jennom and tin or eight mi hln gun. Newest device of death and destruction U reportedly the acouitto or harmonic mine. It le aueceaaor to the magnetic win, which became obsolete ai mod a th maartetlff belt wai Invented and all ahlpi wer equipped with thl ring of cables through which a current wai passed to et up an Induction field that would counteract the magnetic field of the mine, mak ing It harmleaa. Not much I known about the acoustic mine, but the principle of U operation la fairly almpl. Instead of being et off by the hip' natural magnetic field, it la eet off by th vibration of th ship' engine, the transmission of aound waves through water. It being practically impossible to build a vibrationals or per fectly silent ship, licking this acoustic mln may be a lot hard tr than overcoming the mimetic mmln.' On rport In Washington I that th German! have discon tinued using th magnetic mine t , converting those on hand Into land mines to drop by para chut from bombing planes. THIS MOTOR MISS NO MISS Another Ingenioua use of aound- waves haa been figured out by th German technicians. When German bombers first cam over England, It waa notic ed their engines, instead of hav ing a steady, ven roar, seemed to exhaust unevenly and at var iable pitch. British plana build ers war at first Inclined to acoff, saying th nasi didn't know how to build good motors. But when th British plan de tecting devices tried to pick up German plane by mean of me chanical eara and radio listening .BOfts, It wa found that this un vn beat of th German motors mad extremely difficult the task of tolling quickly th height of an attacking bomber. Now, It la understood, British bombing plana engine are also being re geered to glv off th uneven drone beat so a to throw off German Uatenlng posts. ' Chatter about the myaterloua Spcrry bomb sight, perfected for us by U. ' S. bombers, hos of course been limitless. Hailed as th greateit aecret weapon of the present war, It enablea bombers to drop their egga In pickle bar- rcl from 15,000 feet with un canny regularity. It haa baen generally assumed that thl de x Vic waa given to th British, but there now come from Eng jjfland report that th Sperry 'bomb tight la of questionable value, for th reason that Its use I dependent on perfect visibility a condition -frequently found on th bombing range near Den ver and th California desert, but only Infrequently in Europe. ANTI-AIRCRAFT ANTIQUATED , Speaking of anti-aircraft guns, quite a point ha been made that th United Statei defenses were practically a blank on thl type of equipment. But torn observ er have returned with the the ory that it doesn't make much difference, for anti-aircraft bat tori seldom bring down a plan, and their use in keeping th bomber up high applies only to the area immediately abov the battery. Another Idea of defense that th British have had to modify to a certain extent i the us of volunteer fire fighter to combat conflagrations started by Incend Wary bombs. At first, It was the ' idea that th good tough Britons, aprlnglng from every cot, heath and hedgerow, would stomp out th fires and protect their homes from th despoller. But It hasn't worked out quit that way. It take nerve to check these In cendiary fire when thousands Of bomb r dropping over a Mechanics Need Meat To Keep Up Their Pep 1 1 ,Vi lit: 1 i A ' Grapefruit, beef leaf, veUble, whole-wheat bread, fruit an milk make a nutritious dinner for this meehanlc'a family. By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX . NEA Service Staff Writer Every housewife should feed her family the correct variety of fond as specified by the "Nu tritional Yardstick" developed at the recent conference on nutri tion In Washington, but it's only common seme to know that an armchair addict does not need what a steel worked doe. If your husband Is a mechanic, his job In an aircraft factory, or garage requires an avorage daily caloric Intake of from 2800 to 3300 calories In a well-balanced diet that Include! meat or other complete proteins, milk, eggs, cereals, vegetables and fruit. Meal is Important, not only to satisfy the natural hunger that comes from hard work, but to upply the vitamins and minerals newly found In meat (especially the vitamin B group) and the complete protein in meat that builds and maintains the body tissue, bone and muscle. To maintain her husband's nu tritional health the wife of the average mechanic should pro vide him with a well-balanced diet that includes two large serv ings of meal, fowl or fish at two meals or three average servings at three meals. A typical day'a menu should be this: . BREAKFAST . Pineapple Juice, cooked whole grain cereal, bacon, whole-wheat toast, Jelly, coffee, milk. LUNCH Cold sandwich meat, tomatoes, celery, raisin nut bread, potato salad, orange cuitard, milk. city, and under thl type of raid, the volunteer I next to useless. What it take 1 professional fir fighter on the Job all the time. And the reel reason that British ship yards, docks, muni tion plant and plans factories have been able to keep up their splendid records of production Is that all these itrateglc center have been protected by profes sional (ire fighting units who tick on the Job like toldler. while the volunteer head for the bomb cellars or the hills. Any place you look, you'll always find a poor professional beating a good amateur. Even at soldiering.

Fleming, wage hour administrator, indicated the City Motor Trucking company of Portland would not be In cluded In seasonal exemption for excavating, hauling and process ing of crushed stone. If no objection 1 filed within 15 day the order will be made final. Th National Crushed Stone association filed an application on behalf of the Portland com pany for inclusion of It opera tion in the 14-week atonal exemption extended to crushed stone operations whose season Is limited by frost. This would permit employes to work up to 12 hours a day and St hours a week for not more than 14 weeks a year with out payment of overtime. It was granted to establishments in areas of low winter temperature. Notice of the preliminary In tention to include the Portland company within the northern branch of the industry was op posed by the Portland Building and Construction Trades council and an examiner found the com pany did not regularly shut down six months a year; that its shutdown was caused by lack of demand for the company's products and wa not caused by climatic or other natural conditions.

Don't leave the Job to other while you sit home and complain. Harriet Elliott, associate ad ministrator and consumer ad viser, Office of Price Adminis tration and Civilian Supply, says: Th basic principle which should guide measures for con sumer protection Is effective use of available community re sources and participation by all group of consumer In th community," Democratic defense de pend," she add, "on making these problems a matter of com munity concern, a responsibility of all. At the same time it is of primary importance that the efforts of various groups, such as women' club, church groups, labor organizations, Negro or ganizations, etc., be Integrated and coordinated and that the gaps between separate efforts be filled in. It I the function of state and local defense councils to provide such coordination and to take the lead in filling the gaps." These state and local defense council are of vital importance to every local woman. The con sumer representative on these councils has two general respon sibilities: (1) to see that the needs of civilian consumers arc considered and cared for as the defense program develops In states and localities; (2) to help direct the activities of local con sumers so that their Industrial and group action may keep their living costs within bounds and protect their living standard.
