cluding doctors and nurses, were
'assigned to the flooded areas.
They are supervising emergency
relief work of several thousand
Red Cross volunteers, including
local doctors and nurses.
A late summary reveals thai
more than 14,000 homes have
been damaged and more than
1000 destroyed In tho southwest.
Homeless families are being
housed in army tents or In pub

Red Cross warehouses and near
by army posts. Evacuees are be
ing fed by local Red Cross Chap
ter Canteen Corps, while doctors

IT'S DIFFERENT
THESE DAYS
Vast changes in driving
habits have come as a result
of wartime regulations. .
Cars that used to take to the
street every day now may
sit unused In the garage
from one week's end to the
next, or even longer. Other
csrs are getting a lot more
regular use than before.
The .'act if that every car,
no matter where or bow
it's driven, needs to be
watched over mora care
fully these days. Many things
that once seemed hardly
worth doing become very
important when you realise
that your present car may
have to last you two or
three times as long as ususl.
Tint's why It Is wise
move to make sure that '
ususl servicing hsbits are
really fitted to actual cur
rent driving circumstances.'
It costs nothing to tslk
things over with a good
dealer, and can save much.

CAMPS DENIED
A statement recently carried
In the press and attributed to
Robert E. Stripling, Identified
as chief investigator of the com
mittee on un-American activity,
that spies and saboteurs have
been released from relocation
centers was vigorously denied by
Dillon S. Myer, director of the
War Relocation authority.
"This statement reveals a com
plete Ignorance of the manner In
which the agency is conducting
its program, Myer said, In a
statement released today at the;
Tulelnke center.
"No evacuee Is permitted to
leave a relocation center If there
Is any indication that he would
in any way endanger the nation
al security. The granting of per
mits to leave is handled very
carefully on an Individual basis.
We have records on all people
over the age of 17 who are being
considered for leave; these rec
ords cover family relationships,
training, experience, contacts
with Jupan, and other pertinent
facts," Mr. Myer explained.
"In addition we have available
and we utilize the) information
from the intclligcnan agencies of

whether or not there is anything
In the record of an evacu ece
which would make It undesira
ble for him to live outside of a
relocation center.
"We presume that anyone hav
ing evidence of disloyal activity
on the part of relocated evacuees
will transmit that information
promptly to the agencies of the
government which are responsi
ble for apprehending dangerous
persons. To our knowledge not
one Instance of disloyal activity
on the part of any of the twelve
thousand persons of Japanese an
cestry on leave from relocation
centers has been reported," Myer
said.
"The statements attributed to
Mr. Stripling have the effect of
misleading the public on an im
portant principle of democracy.
That principle centers around
the question of whether loyal
American citizens and law abid
ing aliens should be kept in con
finement for the duration of the
war, or whether they should bo
given the opportunity to contri
bute to the war effort in a nor
mal manner in our democratic
society. The War Relocation au
thority was established for the
purpose of relocating people
evacuated from military areas.
Our belief is that such people
should be re-established In nor
mal communities unless they are
found to be potentially danger
ous. In administering our leave
program, we are taking all pro
per precautions to protect the
national security.
"We welcome a thorough In
vestigation of our program, but
we feel that the charges which
have been made are irresponsi
ble and detrimental to the war
effort," Myer said.

Near-Sightedness . .. .
Near-Sightedness it the most common eye error.
One can see obects very near to the eye, but '
because the rays of ligh! entering the naer
(Ighted eye bend too sharply, objects at onh a
slight distance are blurred. .
Far-sightedness...
Far-Sightedness ii caused by the failure of fight
rays to focus exactly on the retina, and it utt
opposite near-sightedness. Distant objects can '
be teen clearly, but those nearby are blurred and -indistinct.
,
Astigmatism . . . ,
Astigmatism is caused by an irregular or slightly
wriniclad condition of the surface of the cornea.
Rays of light do not concentrate uniformly,
creating the tame effect at looking through a
faulty window glass.

D o u b I e : V i s i on . . .
Double vision is caused by one muscle in the eye
being stronger or weaker than the other, with the
result that one eye tends to turn toward the nose,
bringing about extreme difficulty in focusing. .
