Keep business Going
An /Factory Wheezs
.irri11g In Oklahoma
(EDITORIAL)

The announced purpose of the Oklahoma War In
dstres board is to bring manufacturer and producer
together and in contact with the various government
agencies placing contracts for supplies to the end that all
Industries be kept running during the war;
This single sentence sums up the whole proposition
The time is coming when factory of any sort will
be permitted to keep in operation unless deemed neces-
sary to aid in carrying the work Of winning the
This means that unless the plants now in existence
arrange at early date to adjust themselves to present
conditions they will be closed, their organization dis
rupted and the cities in which they are located will lose
the benefit Of the trade coming from the workers.
Many manufacturers who have had government con-
tracts do not like them They do not like to work for
specific rate Of profit and they not accustomed to
turning out perfectly uniform product such as Is re-
quired by the government.
These manufacturers would like to get away from
work of this character but they do it and be loyal
their interests the interests of their employees and
the city in which the plant is situated? And if the gov
ernment needs their equipment and organization, are
they exactly loyal if they do not cheerfuy tender them
and not wait to be forced?
These are extraordinary times and they call for
reme measures Personal interest and personal liberty
must be thrown to the winds Each and everyone must
sacrifice in manner or other That is just what
the manufacturer must be prepared to do and without
delay.
If any plant can be adapted to the manufacture of
some given product and can do it more advantageosy
than established industries the government IS ready to
advance much 60 per cent of the cost of material and
new facilities and otherwise do everything possible to
help.
The government is preparing to set aside fifty mil
lions of dollars to develop the resources of this country
at least such Of them needed in manufactures
In Oklahoma that means that manganese deposits will
be investigated that all sorts of experiments will be
made with rock asphalt that other minerals found in
this state will be tested with view to large develop
ment
In substance while some may have to sacrifice in
dvidualy in serving the country, the government stands
ready to than counterbalance this by aiding and
enrichng the whole state. The time has come when
Oklahoma must have statewide vision and get away
from competition between communities
The meeting of the War Industries board at Tulsa on
the 29h should be attended by every manufacturer in
the state and every person interested in seeing the dor
mant resources Of the state developed The time op
perfume and united effort will accomplish wonders

Roman Church Head Issues Special
Message to Entire World, and
Wants Prayers for Cessation Of
Evils Afflicting the Earth.

Rome, May l0.--A special prayer
during mass on St. Peters day, June
%, for the cessation of the evils tor
mcnting humanity is urged by Pope
Benedict i'll 4 special message ad-
dressed to the whole world.
THE end OF the fourth year ap-
proaches since Europe is in conAa-
grafton says the message, During
this time the violence has never di-
minished, but increased, so that we
never have had moments of relief
from ever increasing ills and affllic-
tons"
Continuing, the pope says that
owing to the ministry entrusted to
him by Providence and animated by
the charity OF Jesus Christ. nothing
has been left uninterrupted to REM
edy these afilictions. The pontiff re-
calls the words OF King Jehosophat,
praying:
Lord God Of our fathers, Thou
art God in Heaven and ruIest over
all Kingdoms and nations. In Thy
hand is strength and power; none
can resist Thee. We will cry to
Thee in our Affections and Thou
wilt hear and save us. Our God,
as we know not what to do, we can
only tGrn our eyes to Thee
The pope urges the world to trust
in God, who is wrathful at such
persistent sins, and must be pla-
Gated. Humble entreatieS and perse-
vcring prayers are the best means
to do this, the pontilf declares.
