N A V Y ENLISTING POLICE OFFICERS NORDALE 3 RATES APPOINTM ENT OF W IL L IA M JEFFERS IS ENCOURAGING Appointment o f William M. “ Bill” Jeffers, president of the Union Pacific system, as nat ional rubber administrator, provides a great deal of encouragement to persons desiring to have the rubber muddle cleared. Jeffers has proved his ability by rising from the lowest ranks among railroad labor to the top position in the company. He is firm, yet affable, and appreciates a good joke, even when it is “ onhim” . A few years ago, this writer, met at a railroad depot with other business men to greet Mr. Jeffers on one of his official visits through this territory, and remarked to the rail road aagent that even he president’s train was late. When the train finally arrived, the presi dent of the chamber of commerce rpeated the rmark to Mr. Jeffers, whose hearty laugh indi cated his appreciation of the joke. A fter receiving the appointment, Mr. Jeffers remarked in effect that of the morale of this nation and its necessary busines is carried on during the war the American people must be kept on whels~and he is right, because when the automobile goes o ff the highwtys, busines is going to suffer, when business suffers the stanard of living is going to drop and when that happens morale may tumble. O f course, each loyal American will work hard to do his part in the war effort, but hardship does have a deteriorating effect on his morale. Before the United States was forced into the war by the stab-in-the-back Japs, congress knew the United States was not prepared, yet it failed to insist that we become prepared. The Arerican people were not ready for prepared ness, but our officials should have been coura geous enough to insist on the country preparing. W e need a few more men in high places like William Jeffers, who has the courage to att empt to solve a difficult problem in a realistic way. He will get things dome, if he is given the au^iority by higher officials. this shipment. • Ç’.. Editor and Publisher K LA8S V.
