One of my boys was hit hard In the abdomen. Wc rigged a rough stretcher and carried him along. Several times he asked for food, and we gave it to him. Every time he'd explain with a grin that it did n't do much good becauao It ran right out. Through all the ex- crutlutlng agony of tlx wo hours, Ihero was never a peep out of him. When we were trying to do whnt wo could for him that night, ha linked: 'Can I talk?' and 1 told him; 'You'd bolter not, son," and he grinned und suld: 'OK.' A fow minutes lutcr, he died."

Previously, the Port land official said that enlistees would bo sent to Bremerton rather than to Farrugut for train ing.

GL PROPOSES IMPROVEMEN T DFENTRANCE One of the major proposnts at a meeting of the park board on Tuesday was that made by E. M. Igl, a representative of the plan ning commission. Igl proposed that the west entrance to Klam ath Falls be improved and pos sibly be made Into a city park. Thia would include the territory from Link River bridge to Sec ond street, . E. E. Spencer, keeper of Moore park grounds, made the sugges tion that the road over the hill from Riverside school to Moore park be Improved. He also asked that some of the large sprinklers on the lawn at the park be changed to small ones so that small plants may be watered bet tcr. " Spencer also reported that there were about 400 cars at the park last Sunday and 3000 people there at one time. What satisfaction can there be for the Germans who are being moved out of territory that is being bombed Into territory that likely will be Invaded? You can't blame a man for get ting impatient with a wife, gen erally spaaking. Klamath Gets Money For Animal Control SALEM, July 8 (A1) The state department of agriculture today allocated $21,290 to 18 counties for control of predatory animals.

NASSAU, Bahumos, July 8 (P) Sir Harry Oakca, one of the rich est men in the world, died at his home here last night.

Melchcn of the homicide squad had been summoned to Nassau thia morning on a secret mission). Oukcs, who was made a Brit ish baron in 1038, was born at Sangerville, Me., December 23, 1874.

Oakes, whose fortune has been estimated at a figure as high as $200,000,000, haa many enter prises at Nassau, and is the larg est real estate owner on the is land of New Providence. EflNGHAM CANYON, Utah, July 8 (IP) Army officials ex pressed confidence that govern ment action today would end a strike of railway conductors which haa halted production at the Utah Copper company mines, the nation's largest producer of the war-vital metal. "The government cannot stand for further loss of copper," Major M. J. Tinerney, executive officer of the labor branch, ninth service command, asserted after a day-long conference with union and company representa tives. He predicted that a settle ment would be reached today with the intervention of "same department of the government." The halt in production came after the- walkout Tuesday eve ning of 100 member of the Order of Railway Conductors (AFL) from their joba on the Bingham and Garfield railroad, a line which hauls the ores from the mines at Bingham to smelt ers at nearby Magna and Arthur, Utah.

"ZTT 5 5 S?.i American enterprise and its time-tested production methods are meeting and fulfilling the most imposing ( demands ever placed upon the industry ot any country T MAS BEEN our privilege to play an important p.irt in war production scared with the supply icrviccs of the Army and Navy, and with almost 19,000 other producers who have worked with us. Figures show how successful this "partnership" has been. But they do not show the valuable direc tion and cooperation wc have had from Army and Navy officials. Nor do they indicate the fine spirit shown by our suppliers and sub-contractors. While 18,73) organizations have shared our big job of war production, there have actually been more than 68,000 such "partnerships" established. For, in many cases, several divisions have gone to the same source, for different types of work. It is interesting to note that nearly three-fourths of the firms which have furnished us parts for war products, employ less than 300 people. Of these more than half employ 100 or less. Wc have chosen our sub-contractors and suppliers carefully, in order to secure those best qualified for the work at hand. In this we have had one great advantage: "Sub' contracting" is merely a wartime extension of a time-honored General Motors method. We have always dealt with thousands of suppliers of mate rials and parts. And so we have known how to proceed in establishing sources dependable as to both quality and efficiency of performance not only among FACTS ON GENERAL MOTORS SUB CONTRACTING TXI numb tl ubMtrHtar-wpellir MnnKtlOM ' rQ (n, mill OM dlvMoni , OB,5UJ Numb ( Mvvilt arptnluHoni from wMdi QM g 7 a k' Slit af wMilmiona fumlihlni ut with pirtt to war proatNtlw u Indltit by vridil mmy wtl ll follow! 45 51 .... 26 Firm tmolorlni tot thin 100 p0l.

Tho Sfuroo abovo aro lakon from an oihauaHva atudy of oub-contraelint orooarod ui oonnMllon wtlh a ront report to tho War Oopartmont organizations with which we have formerly worked but also with thousands of others. This sub-contracting "know-how" combined with manufacturing "know-how" is largely re sponsible for the consistent quality of the war goods produced. It also accounts for cost reductions totaling hundreds of millions of dollars. The "partnership" of the Armed Forces, General Motors and the thousands of other businesses in-: volved some large, some small is but one ex ample of cooperative wartime endeavor by the automobile industry. All companies in this mass-production industry, have been cooperating with one another and with! organizations not formerly supplying the automo tive industry in order to utilize all knowledge and facilities suited to the task. The success of this method demonstrates one fart of tremendous importance to all Americans: American enterprise and its time-tested production methods are meeting and fulfilling the most imposing demands ever placed upon the industry of any country.
