Signal Corps Finds Tough Going Setting Poles for Maneuver Communications HEADQUARTERS OF CEN TRAL OREGON MANEUVER AREA, Camp Abbot, July 21 tfV) A field signal corps construction battalion, fresh from a long tour of duty in a desert war games area, is finding its work in the Cascade range as Oregon maneu vers start the opposite of that just completed. Where previous ly the men have fought shifting sands, now they combat rough and rock terrain left by volcan oes which once spouted lavs about the countryside. Setting thousands of poles for communication lines throughout the vast maneuver area, the sol diers find lava rock a real prob lem. The rock soon dulls ordi nary tools. Officers say blasting Is necessary In 90 per cent of the work. To keep up with the army schedule and not because signal corps men cannot do the job demolition squads from the corps of engineers assist In blast ing because of their training In handling explosives. Often ground which appears soft enough for post holes proves to be solid lava two feet under neath and not old lava rock which becomes softer with the centuries. . . Poles were cut, trimmed and barked by the signal corps men. They were cut from areas previ ously designated by the forest service and under careful super vision so that no fires may result. Most of the poles lack the us ual cross arms; instead wire will be fastened by single insulator. This, officers explain, because the line will be torn down once the maneuvers end. Stringing of the miles of cop per wire Is being started on an undisclosed number of circuits. The exact mileage used In the network was not divulged, ex cept that one circuit will com' prise 168 miles of wire. One of the construction bat tallons is mode up entirely of colored troops, under command of white officers. Encamped in a lush valley, their tended area is as immaculate as If within the limits of a regular garrison. Dur ing the day they toil long hours In clearing brush, digging holes, setting poles. Myrtle Creek Man Held as Suspect in Police Gun Duel ROSEBURG, Ore, July 21 (P) Leslie Ellis, 43, of Myrtle Creek, was In custody here today, charged with assault with Intent to kill and carrying concealed weapons. Officers were investi gating his possible connection with a gun duel last May 18, in which State Policeman William Bettis narrowly escaped injury. A bullet tore the heel off the state policeman's boot on May 18 while he was guarding the highway bridge at Myrtle Creek. The officer and the sniper, the latter hidden by brush across the river, exchanged shots. State policemen last Sunday recovered a rifle from the South Umpqua river at the scene of the shoot ing. State Police Sgt. Paul Mor gan reports, and the weapon was identified as the property of El lis, who had been unreported since the date of the duel. He was located yesterday at one of two of his remote farms and ar rested. Ellis was allegedly carrying a pair of brass knuckles at the time of arrest, District Attorney J. V. Long reported. -The prison er denies having attacked Bet tis, and claims his rifle had been stolen from his cabin. Ellis served six months In the penitentiary in 1939 for armed assault on a neighbor.

Merrill Clubs Plan Bond Sales Program MERRILL Mrs. Eva Bow man, representing the Soropti mlst club in Merrill's drive for bond sales this month, met with the Service club Tuesday to round out plans for the bond selling program to be sponsored by the Loyal Order of Moose for the women's organization. July 29 has been set as the ten tative date for the affair in which all organizations of Mer rill will take part. Bill Poe, manager of Safeway, will work out a feature for the Service club. The program will be pre sented either in the high school gymnasium or the community hall, a definite announcement to. be made later.

Fighters Combat Siskiyou' Fires ' SAN FRANCISCO, July 21 W) The U. S. forestry service responded quickly to a call for fire fighters to combat a series of fires in remote Siskiyou county. Forestry - officials arranged with United Air Lines to send a transport plane to Reno, Ncv., yesterday, pick up' a waiting crew of 18 men and fly them to the fire area in California. The plane landed at Monta gue, east of Yreka. The. fires were believed caused by light ning. Extent of the damage was not known. Lost Owyhee River. Explorers Return " NAMPA.

Arriving more than two days late, they explained they were delayed by unexpected difficul ties along the winding stream. ; Old Tradition of Morale Building Carried On Dy ' American Women of Today By CATHERINE BRUMBAUGH Vice Pretldant of Soroptimists "Be Jubilant, My Feet." Eighty-one years ago, Julia Ward Howe was inspired to write the words of a new battle song a song that lightened the hearts of the Union soldiers, gave new strength at a lime when victory seemed a long, long way off. In 1862, there was no need of airplane carriers, bombs, bomb ers. In that year there was no world-sued battle raging along numerous fronts in both hemi spheres. There was, however, in 1862, a sore need, for morale building encouragement, a n d Mrs. . Howe furnished .inspired FARLEY SAYS TIME TUCSON, Ariz., July 21 W) The people of the United States, for the next five or six months, will be. more concerned about the war and getting it over with than they will be about poll-. tics, said James A. Farley, for mer Postmaster General and na tional chairman of the demo cratic party. He spoke informal ly at a dinner given here last night. "After that time," said Far ley, "we will face a national election. There will come a time when people will talk poli tics and will have a right to talk politics. , "By that time I would like to see the war over. Then both parties would be able to select their men on the basis of the domestic situation; in other words, I would like to have the election settled on domestic is sues."

With the coming of the war these gynv . compasses were needed in large quantity, to equip the ships of our rapidly expanding Navy and Merchant Marine. They had never been built in quantity production. To save time one of the big thirteen hun . dred pound Spcrry Gyro-Compesxs was sent IT CAM!

Promptly we sent men of wide experience in precision manufacture, electrical engineer ing and mechanical processes tp Brooklyn,. New York, where they studied at first hand - the technical construction and assembly of cons OP DKAWtmy BlUEPSINTS AND SPECIFICATIONS from Brooklyn to Detroit by fast passenger " train. It was in our hands next morning and we took it apart for study, piece by piece. The gyro-compass is an intricate, scientific Instrument of navigation which unerringly points (and holds) true North. It is not influ enced by electrical or magnetic disturbances - that affect the ordinary compass. -' The heart of the syro-compsss Is its large fry pound rotor, a kind of fly-wheel, which IT. PINDS THP TSUI NORTH SS?Tgt 4. ' ., a I at I -rr.- LIU ' Is spun at the rate of six thoussnd revolutions a minute by its own in-built electric motor. We found the compass to contain over ten thousand mechanical parts, with delicate elec trical arrangements whereby the East-West rotation of the world itself, and the constant this Intricate mechanism. They were greatly aided in these' studies by the-Sperry Gyro scope Company, Inc long . experienced in gyro-compass manufacture. Study of the drawings, specifications and the parts of the compass, helped us decide which parts we would manufacture ourselves -and which we would sub-contract to other companies. Our master mechanics made plans for more thro' five thousand special tools and fixtures.-Our planning department began to order production material. We made the final selections of men from our organization whose abilities clearly fitted-them for super vision of the many tasks of gyro-compass manufacture. We placed our first orders among three hundred and fifty subcontractors. While these things, were going on we began to build two complete compasses with- tVttr PIKI AND IVflY ASSEMBLY TESTED FOP IAIANCE AND PRECISION out waiting for completion of our regular production facilities. By the time these jobs were finished our manufacturing arrange ments were made and the quantity produeS! tion of gyro-compasses actually began. i In our production program we were guided: by the same principles that we had used successfully in the building of cars and trucks. We believe that if each individual part of the machine (however intricate) is made right and the assemblies of the parts are right, the .. finished product cannot help but be right. . In manufacturing the gyro-compass all of the thousands of big and little parts undergo : the most rigorous test and inspection. They must always register a perfect score in theu? -successive balance and precision trials. When a compass is completed it is given!
