Lewis, the triple strike caller, who is supposed to have been put in his dace again, until October 31. The place he was put into is neither uncomfortable nor against his choice. He and Interior Secretary Jckes got their heads together and adopted this course either at Ickes' suggestion with Lewis agreeing, or vice versa. They contrived a summer hia tus mainly as a cooling off neriod for the War Labor MALLON Board. It has not become generally known, but Mr. Ickes Is Involved in as deep and bitter a dis pute with the board as Mr. Lewis. Letters have passed between Enforcement Officer Morse, of WLB, and Ickes (or his right hand man, Abe Fortays) vfchich are 10 degrees hotter than the unprecedented summer Washington climate. Their correspondence has reached such a de gree that many an inside rail-sitter suspects either Ickes or the board will have to get out of town before October 31, and the general as sumption is that the one to travel will be the board. Its members are literally fuming to an ex tent where they cannot talk without sputtering. Their faces are pale, and they show signs of their war of nerves not only with Lewis but with Ickes. The mere fact that Ickes even talked with Lewis and thereby interfered with their deal ings on the various coal strikes, would have been enough to make them run high, but when Ickes kept taking matters out of their hands and assuming to settle negotiations (even though he had an executive order directing him to do so) he just about furnished the main basic reason why the coal strike situation is in its current quandary. So it may be reasonably said that Messrs. Lewis and Ickes really decided to let the prob lem, go for four-and-a-half months to push, or let the board go on the rocks quietly in the interim. -Nor will Mr. Lewis be scared much by TDR't request to congress for extension of the draft age limit to 63 in order to deal with the miners or other strikers. Congress probably will not pass it. No Appeal to Draft THE idea of making millions of people of the country subject to presidential draft at will, in order to punish a few labor leaders, if not apt to have wide political appeal. It looks lika another of those administration proposals to avoid direct action against the source of trouble, in favor of a circuitous route and in direct action against all of the people for the sins of a few. Most of the coal operators seemed to want to settle with Lewis without waiting four-and-a-half months for the outcome of these Ickes Lewis political ramifications. Their actions sug gest they may be scared on two counts. In the first place, if Lewis sues in court for portal to portal pay and gets a judgment, he might be able to collect back wages for five years to 1938. A settlement would not go back to far. In the second place, Ickes is running their Industry and such an aggressive political character is apt to look under all their beds for whatever he can find now that he is in charge of their household. WLB Nears Rocks THE War Labor Board has been on the verge of going either out of town or on the rocks several times lately, but, at the moment, seems sharply divided as to its future course. Some board members want to drop the whole Lewis coal strike proposition and get some sleep for the next few months. They were heartened, by the fact that the president men tioned them in his draft message to congress, a reference which they interpreted as soothing their wounded prestige. Other members want to make Lewis sign the two-year contract which they told him he must sign. They even want to force the president to force Lewis to sign the contract. This latter group is not likely to get anywhere either at the White House or with Lewis. The matter, therefore, will probably drift. But It is at least an even money bet that the War Labor Board will not be around here Octo ber 31. (While DeWitt MacKenzle is on vacation, this daily column is being written by Max Hill, former chief of the Associated Press bureau in Tokyo). Br MAX HILL An Englishman who is in a position to speak with authority wrote a special article for the Associated Press which was published yes terday, and in which he said: "The people (in Britain) know they can -expect no joyride to Berlin or Tokyo." The author is W. J. Haley, who is joint man aging editor ot the Manchester Guardian and Evening News, and a director of Press Associa tion of Great Britain and of Reuters. Haley has just returned to England from an extensive trip through the South Pacific, and the menace that is Japan no longer is a myth to him. Let us hope it was from knowledge and not sentiment that he said: "Churchill spoke for the nation when he pledged that Tokyo must go the way ot Berlin and Rome." It is time, also, that America awakened to the critical situation in the Pacific. The status ot the war in that area can be summarized in a few words, and I only hope the readers ot this column won't be too shocked by the defi nitely ominous factors. Our government is aware of the danger, as are the responsible heads of our armed forces. They know of the long and bitter and bloody battles which face us before the Japanese bow in defeat, as they must in the end. Complacency BUT a spirit of complacency seems to perme ate the attitude of the average American, especially those who live in the east and mid west. I have been asked many times why I didn't say so while I was in Tokyo Instead ot now if Japan was so strong. Well, this is the rea son. Japan didn't fool us. She wasn't strong. We were weak and with typical American con fidence we looked on Japan as a push-over. Now Japan is strong. She had a carefully planned program of attack. In ninety days she seized a rich and vast empire, and since that time she has done nothing but prepare for the inevitable attack from 'the United Nations to regain it Any attempt to wrest this territory from her will be costly in both men and materials. Japan knows that. Now she can sit back and wait for a stalemate. She has accomplished her ob jectives in this war, even more than Hitler. This is not to be taken as criticism of our strategy in the war. But this much is obvious. We played into the hands of the Japanese once by believing the lifeblood of that empire had been drained away by the long China affair. Now we say, with the same confidence, that once we have Hitler out of the way we will turn on Japan and just as easy as blowing out a candle we will take her into camp. SIDE GLANCES Jap Strategy NOTHING fits better into the Japanese pro gram than our policy of devoting most of our attention to the Atlantic. It gives Japan time to consolidate and exploit all of her vast oriental plunder. Pearl Harbor was not the only trick of which the Japanese are capable. They have gambled from the first on astalemate, which would be a victory for them. Let us suppose that after Hitler is defeated that the militarists ostensibly are discredited, that a supposedly mild cabinet of businessmen takes over. They could and would say blandly that they were the responsible, respectable faction in Japan, the people we could deal with in safety. Let us not be duped by any such ruse, and the maneuver is not only likely but probable. It would mean another war in the Pacific within twenty years. Vet there is a small but potent minority in this country which would advocate such action. I say, as was wisely said in antiquity: Beware of the Greeks who come bearing gifts. The Japanese have yet to be defeated In any war. They must be defeated this time, invaded and their militarism discredited at home as well as abroad before we can claim victory In the Pacific. In Japan the hope Is that a war-weary Amer ica will compromise with her. That is a de velopment we must guard against to the utmost. com tau ev t eeevxt eee. t. at m at, mt. err.

A famous doctor was piullnit a weekend with friends who i hnd very nol- live Ideas about Ihe iipliriniilnK of their seven, year-old dnugh t e r. They thought that no child should ever know any thing of death. Tho word was tnhoo In their little girl's presence. All fairy stories, even, which mentioned dentil were kept out of the houjo. Well, this theory win all ex plained to the doctor, that first evening, when the folks were talking, after the llttlo daughter had gone to bed. Next morning early, he was awakened by someone gently tugging at his luilr. He opened one eya and there was the little girl by his brdlde. So he sat up In bed and asked why ho was honored with such an curly visit. And In a hushed voice, the mite ex plained: "Well, doctor. Mummy says you know everything. And so pleiixe would you tell me whore I could get noino pure alcohol. Because my pet liuird Is deud and I want to preserve It. There Isn't the least use of asking Mummy or Daddy about it. They simply don't understand things like that." You know, If you have a youngster at your house, whom you're trying to shield from all the harsh things of life, you might ponder that Utile yarn.

Methods of preventing a re currence of the trouble are now known and manufacture is be ing resumed. No Fletcher's Costoria has been made during this seven week period, and at its begin ning the makers issued a nation wide warning to consumers and retailers not to use or sell the product and to return all stocks for destruction. The U. S. Food and Drug Ad ministration has been kept in formed of all these develop ments. Q. What- caused the trouble? A. The sugar content of Fletch er's Castoria was reduced to conserve sugar under wartime conditions. A year ago, Castoria was made with this reduced sugar content and was up to standard in every respect. This year, in March, we again start ed production with reduced sugar. However, at that time a chem ical change harmless in itself occurred In the characteris tics of the water used in making Castoria. But this change, in combination with the reduced sugar, increased the degree and rate of normal fermentation. The more rapid fermentation re tarded normal re-oxidation dur ing the ageing process, resulting in a product which caused nausea. Q. Why didn't normal tests show that something was wrong? A. The changes which occurred were so elusive that they could not be detected by the regular testing procedures procedures which had kept Castoria a re spected product for more than seventy-five years. In fact, even after the nauseating effect was discovered in actual use, it took weeks of laboratory research to identify tho factors that were causing the trouble. Q. What are the makers doing to prevent a recurrence of the trouble? Now that the cause Is known, procedures have been put in ef fect which will assure normal re oxidation of the product. Addi tional safeguards have been set up. New laboratory controls have been Installed. New biolog ical and chemical tests will be applied to every botch of Fletch er's Castoria. Each bottle will be stamped with a plainly visible control number, in verification of these tests. Q. It Fletcher's Castoria now on tale? A. No. Manufacture has been resumed, but because of the time required for manufacture and distribution it may be about two months before Castoria will again be on sale at your retail er's. When it is, you will be no tified in your local newspaper. Q.Will the package be tha tame? A. No. The Fletcher's Castoria now being made will bear a, dis tinctive green band. This green bond Is for your protection in case any old Castoria has not been returned. The Manufacturer of t Fletcher's Castoria
