Whether every _ Riverview Adrian The Newspaper and Bernard Eastman one will have good jobs and spend money like drunken sailors as they did during the last world war is a question that only time can answer. With Britain gaining control of northern Africa, the allies will probably take the upper hand in the struggle with Japan in the Pacific, because control of the Mediterranean without r uch interference would give England a chance -"nd more warships to the Japanese area and woivo keep open a vital route for shipment of supplies. However, aside from the fight for control of Singapore, England will likely concentrate on defeating Hitler in Europe. To England the Japanese war is only a side issue in the world struggle, but, of course, the Nipponese problem is tied in with the larger problem. With the country going all-out for arma ment production labor leaders who have been causing the strikes will be less apt to stir the wrath of the people by starting unprovoked in dustrial walkouts. In connection with the labor situation, we may be sure that die great reduction in non-de fense expenditures will reduce employment, but much of the unemployment in turn will be offset by the armament program. As the youthful 1942 trips lightly across the horizon and 1941 fades away in the distance, the picture is darkened by storm clouds that Ameri cans will epcountr during much of the coming year. That picture can be brightened only by the sacrifices, loyalty and unselfishness of the American people. --------r Women Can, and Will, If Necessary Condon Globe-Times Quite a lot has been said recently about the anticipated short age of farm labor and the necessity for women to get out In the fields and help with spring, summer and fall work. To what ex tent this will be necessary will depend upon future labor problems here and elsewhere. During the past week, the writer stopped at a farm home and there received ample evidence that the farmers of this county need not worry about women being able to lend a hand if necessary. At the controls of a tractor was a young lady, hardly out of her teens, who took that tractor arcund the Job with the utmost of confidence We understand this same lady knows the grease cups and oil holes and can wield a wrench. The subject In this case Is probably an exception, but It does bring to mind that there are women who can handle the farm machinery If necessary, and wc believe there are plenty of them right tn this community and county. Furthermore, it shows that there are some who enjoy that type of work and will welcome an opportunity to give the men a helping hand. If and when the time should arrive. RICHLAND Trail Thursday.
