."It is hard enough to make
one Christian, harder slill to
make a , Christian church.'-' To
make a Christian nation is a
task to stagger the imagination.
To make a Christian world-may
seem all but impossible. ? Yet
this is no less, the goal which
our religion sets us,
.Holmer.
: "For" many years .: church
women have had a tendency to
be self centered in their own
churches. ' Today we are spread
ing out. We are becoming more
and more the salt of the earth.
We unite to do something about
the conditions of the world,"
said the speaker.
Mrs. Turnipseed's topic was,
"Together We Build." She said,
In part, "Today we sit here quietly.-
complacently, constructively
and securely. We have nothing
to fear at the present moment
We are free." She continued to
stress the necessity of the union
of -women needed for a greater
task than ever placed, before
them.
. ' Both- women were enthusi
astically received and their trip
to -Klamath Falls sincerely ap
preciated. A musical program
followed- the business meeting
and silver tea.
Next meeting of the United

Waste and
.Expansion
' By EARL WHITLOCK
Greatly as we all regret the
waste, the extravagance, the er
rors, the injustices, the assinini-
ties that crop
up in our great
war expansion,
we know that
many of. them
are inevitable.
Not of ten do
we stop to real
ize how tremen-
dous that ex
pansion is. But
if you'll 'reduce
' the " problem ": to
simple terms, you'll see why a
'. good many mistakes just had' to
'be made.
Take a man who owns a little
. family flock .of, say, a dozen
hens. Now, .suppose you ordered
that man,' almost overnight,' to
construct immediately and to
operate efficiently, a poultry
v 1 m 4 " 1 ' - WJTTT T IrtUT
dozen hensl . -
No matter how much he
knew about chickens, he'd
make many wrong calculations,
he'd spend a lot of money un
wisely, much of his construc
tion would have to be altered
or done over, probably three
fourths of the help he'd hire
would turn out to be misfits,
he d lose thousands of birds un
necessarily why, it would take
him a couple of years to come
even close to efficiency in his
operations.
We cannot reasonably expect
to multiply our industrial out
put on the astronomical scale
that our alms require without
making mistakes during the
process. But, all things con
sidered, In spite of the carps
and critics, we're doing a pretty
good job, thank you.

Civil. Air Patrol Starts
Courier Service to Solve
Air Cargo Problem for U. S.
By BILL BONI
Wide World Military Editor
WASHINGTON, June 29 The
civil air patrol, whose ' light
planes and civilian pilots already
have turned in valuable work on
coastal patrol against submar
ines, is leaping into another
breach with all the enthusiasm
that can be generated by upward
of 50,000 volunteers organized in
squadrons, wings and groups in
all of the 48 states..
Since the army took over con
trol of the nation's airlines and
much of their equipment, and
with the country In a stew over
the air cargo problem, the CAP
has instituted a courier service
which, in many respects, bears
the same relation to the main
commercial air Toutes as does
auxiliary truck service to rail
road operations.
But it goes even beyond that
in making vital time-saving con
tributions to a war program in
which time is the one main es
sential.
Under the supervision of Gar
net N. Hughes, executive officer
of the New York wing, an eco
nomic survey was made for
Long Island war production
plant which had frequent calls
for small shipments of ' parts,
tools and other materials, and
got them by truck, motorcycle
or private car.
In one month 286 such trips
were made covering 14,780 miles,
involving 422 hours spent in
transit, and costing $1700. The
CAP estimated it could cut the
mileage to 11,040; reduce the
time-in-transit to 110 hours, and
operate at less than half the
previous cost. "- The. CAP: now
has been entrusted with -these
missions. -. .
Many Possibilities
There are infinite possibilities
for this sort of work, including
a chance of carrying air mail on
now abandoned routes, and the
CAP under National Command
er Earle L. Johnson is looking
into all of them.
In. the six months of its or
ganization it already has branch
ed out into many fields. CAP
planes have flown army officers
on short hops where military
planes were not available and
fast transportation was neces
sary.
Notably in Georgia and the
Carolines, CAP planes have aid
ed, the u. 5. forest service in
locating forest fires and taking
fire-lighting officers on survey
flights.
This has worked out so well
that the forest service recently
sent a directive to its regional
officers explaining the organi
zation of the CAP and authoriz
ing them to use its equipment,
either on patrol against in
cendiary saboteurs (fires in ten
places In Chattahoochee national
forest were listed as of in
cendiary origin); detection of
new fires when smoke blots out
visibility from lookout towers,
or transportation of fire fighters
and their equipment to scenes
of action.
The same sort of arrangement
shortly may be made with the
Red Cross, which already has
found the CAP a welcome aid
in midwestern tornado and flood
relief work.
At Pryor and Pawhuska,
Okla., two CAP squadrons fol
lowed the trail of tornadoes to
relay word to relief officials
about where help was needed.

An Oregon aerial searching
party under Wing Commander
Capt. Leo G. Devaney by mid-
morning located an army bomb
er that had disappeared on a
night flight.
For security reasons the army
and navy will release no specific
information on what the CAP
is accomplishing on submarine
patrol.
It is kown, however, that these
accomplishments have been con
siderable, at least in keeping the
U-boats below- the surface
even in the case of the pilot who,
sent out on his first flight armed
with a secret code in which to
report any enemy periscopes,
suddenly saw a sub surface dead
ahead of him and blurted into
his microphone, "holy smoke, a
submarine!"
