That la to say, It Is Russia's
tough and mighty army the Ger
mans fear above all else and
thoy're keeping tho flower of
their army in Russia to meet this
menace.
. Sa far, tho Russians say,
neither our bombing nor our
Mediterranean campaign has
caused tho Germans to DIVERT
any important strength from the
Russian front.
""PIIE Russians want us to do
something that WILL divert
German strength from the Rus
sian front. Their theory 'is that
if we DO compel the Germans
to weaken their front In Russia,
they (the Russians) will be able
to move In for tho final kill.'
THAT is the situation, so far
as wo ouiaiucra cuii miuw it.
Obviously, If we HAVF. THE
STRENGTH, now Is the time to
move in from both sides for the
kill. Only our leaders know
whether we huvo the strength
and have it disposed in tho right

It is for thorn to SAY whether
this is tho moment.

Eleeiric Stool Pigeon
Shows Shipyards Losing
Three Hours of Work Daily
By RENNIE TAYLOR '
SAUSALITO, Calif., Aug. 19
VP) An electric atoot pigeon at
one of tho country'a major ship
yards has disclosed, says the
management that the plant is
losing three hours of work every
day because of early quitting
and late starting at lunch and
shift-change periods.
This asserted loss, plus the
three hours regularly allowed
for lunch periods, indicates that
although the yard operates con
tinuously It works at its normal
pace only 18 hours out of each
24,
As a result the Marin Ship
building corporation, operator
of the yard, has appealed to
the workers themselves to find
a remedy. It has offered $1000
In war bonds for the best sug
gestions. The stool pigeon, as It Is
called by a management publl
cation, Is a recording watt
meter, which registers continu
ously, on paper, the amount of
electric power being used in the
big plant.
A one-day record of the watt
meter Indicates that power con
sumption begins to drop rapid
ly and progressively about 11:30
p. m., 30 minutes before the
midnight change, and hits a
practical bottom before the
whistle blows. The Indicator
then moves up slowly for about
one hour, reaching a normal
level shortly after 1 a. m.
This shows, says the company,
that workers begin turning off
their machines fully 30 minutes
before quitting time and that
the oncoming shift is slow about
getting them going again. Simi
lar drops and recoveries are
shown for 8 a. m. and 4:30 p.
m., the other shift-change periods.
Several workers were quoted
as saying they had quit a little
early to catch transportation
homeward. Some said they had
to do so or else stand In line fbr
lunch. A few said they quit
early because they saw every
body else doing it.
