The big lottery party in Washing
ton put some 1900, 900 young men
where the breeze of CONSUMPTION
could blow about 10 per cent of
them into Uncle Sans uniform for
a year of military training.
Those who were carrying serial
and order numbers around in their
pocketbooks on little white cards
were putting red rings around four
dates on their calendars.
Late this month the first 10000

Another group will have a date
with their local boards early in De-
cember, and the third and fourth al
lotments will start for camp, &C.
cording to present schedules, in JAN

1t is taking higher mathematics
to determine the ratio on which the
various local boards will select their
quotas. But the effort is to make it

HISTORY:
Still Repetitious

During the World war, the nations
f1edgling airplane industry was un-
able to cope with the need for Lib
erty motors to drive American fight
ers and bornbers.
The work was EARNED OUT to
auto factories, geared to mass pro-
duction.
Today the airplane industry is a
giant-but the orders for planes and
parts for their manufacture have
come on such gigantic scale that
history has repeated itself, and once
more the industry has proven made
quate to meet the situation.
The industry had geared itself up
to better than 1000 planes a month,
but when orders began coming in
for 10000 bombers of one type alone,
it begged down again.
Now Washington is giving orders
for plane parts to auto makers, and
they are hard at work, tooling up
for this process. Even as in 1918.

GREECE:
Il Dark Horse

The stand that the Greeks were
making against the Italian modern
and mechanical army supported by
considerable air strength was dis
tinctly surprise in the war news of
the week.
Ioannina (Janina), far from fall
ing a quick victim to the invaders,
proved no easy nut to crack and in
stead of the Fascist troops falling
over themselves on the road to Sa-
lonika, there were reports that
Greeks had bayonet-charged their
way into Albanian territory, captur-
ing Biglista.
Whether or not the Italian inva-
sion was begging down, Count Gale
aZzo Ciano was rushed from Italy
into Albania with instructions to
speed up the Italian advance.
At last reports the Turks were
sharpening their tools of warfare,
all army leaves were cancelled, and
it looked very much as though An
kara was getting ready for immedi-
ate action in case any of the other
Axis spectators "piled on"
British aid was of a concrete ma
ture, as forecast at the outset of the
Rome-Athens difficulty. Islands of
strategic import have been occupied
by land forces, rushed from Egyp-
tan bases.
R. A. F. planes are aiding the
Greeks in force, and the battle
seems joined on a more equal foot
ing. Where the Albanians stand is
still a mystery. Rome has asserted
that Albanian units are fighting with
the Fascist legions. Greece simply
refers to these troops as "irregu-
lars"
British occupation of Crete is va
riously interpreted. Some observ-
ers saw in this move the bottling up
by the British Mediterranean feet
not only the Adriatic, but also the
approach to the Dardanelles.

TWO MEN:
Saga of the Sea

Fishermen, wandering among the
dunes on Eleuthera island in the
Bahamas, saw a boat with tattered
sail grounded on shore, and two
spectral forms crawling painfully
across the sand.
They were Robert George Trap
scott, 10, and Wilbert Roy Widdi-
combe, "a, able seamen of the late
British steamer Anglo-Saxon, shelled
and sunk by Nazi raider 500 miles
off the Azores August 81.
Seventy days later, the sole sur
vivors of seven who had cut their
way loose from the sinking freight
er, they had landed safely on British
soil.
Later, somewhat recovered, they
were flown to Nassau and told their
story, a tale that recalled Charles
Reade's novel Foul Play" and
brought reality to the visions of the
Ancient Mariner, Robinson Crusoe,
Treasure Island and other yarns of
sailor men.

FIFTY-FIFTY:
y. S. aids British

Reports from London indicated
that the pace of German air raids
over that city and most of England
had shown decrease in numbers
and intensity. Whether this slacken-
ing of pace was only temporary
these reports could not predict. One
thing was sure however: Americas
aid to Britain is not likely to soon
slacken.
Just before the election dust set
tied down, President Roosevelt, in
one of his final campaign addresses,
brought the war right into the battle
as an issue, and there it stayed for
the rest of the race.
Americans were treated to the odd
picture of campaign boosts for one
side or the other coming, not from
our own sidelines, but from across
the big pond via short-wave radio.
When the Nazis issued a criticism
of Roosevelt defense policies, that
was translated by the candidates
supporters, from Flynn on down, as
a message that the Nazis were root
AlS 1OI lllS SlSCtlOIl VI WlIlk16. ana
vice versa.
The war and peace issue, the ques-
ton of taking sides with one or the
other of the European combatants
became a real issue.
In the closing days Roosevelt
startled the nation by announcing
that Britain was getting, would con-
tinue to get, one of every two planes
coming off American assembly lines.
The U. S. bomb-sight turned out
to be two bomb-sights, both better
than any now in Europe, one belong
ing to the navy, one to the army.
The latter, not quite so good as the
former, was to be released to Eng
land, our nation hanging onto the
latter, exclusively.
The army bomb-sight was to be
put on all planes delivered to Britain
and the navy sight was to go on all
our own army and navy ships.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1940-11-14

ed sections of the nation will do
their share.
How many will come back to civil
life-how many will embrace the
army as a permanent career-that
is big question. But the regular
officers will do their best, when they
find lads with a flair for the mill
tary life, to do a job of salesman
ship.
The officers training schools will
do their part. When a $20-a-week
clerk finds he can bark commands,
and gets a yellow bar on his Shout
der and a company to order around,
what kind of bet is it that he will
want to go back to his desk?

TRAVELLER:
With Umbrella

Sir Neville Chamberlain, umbrella
man of appeasement, who saw the
Nazi dogs of war howl him out of
his post of power in Britain and send
him down into the limbo of nonentity
in his native land, may end his days
in sunny California.
Travelling in utmost secrecy and
unheralded, he is said to be on his
way to the land Of climate and
peace, accompanied only by his
wife.
Chamberlain's departure from his
home shores had its paradoxical
side. At Munich he had signed a
pledge with Hitler that would mean,
as he put it later, "peace in our
time"-a phrase that was hurled
back in his teeth later when bombs
dropped on London.

seen the slightest result from such
restrictions, and / think that it is
time that it should be said quite
definitely that it is cruel to impose
these unnecessary restrictions on
young people at the time when they
most crave these articles of diet.
Certain dietary indulgences, how
ever, do cause acute outbreaks of
acne. The person who has it usually
knows what these foods are; he
finds them out by experience and
very sensibly avoids them. There is
no food, however, which applies to
all cases.
Removal of Grease
Local treatment of the skin in
cludes the removal of grease. There
is no doubt that this occurs in
greasy skins and that the infection
invades the oil glands of the skin. 1t
is in those crypts that the pustules
occur. Treatment with strong soaps
and frequent cleansings are a nat
ural and sensible procedure.
Local treatment also includes the
removal of the blackheads with a
comedone extractor. A comedone
extractor is a small celluloid instru-
ment, on the end of which is cup
like depression with a hole in the
bottom. This is placed exactly over
the blackhead and pressed down and
the contents. Of the blackhead are
expressed. The blackhead is simply
a plugged up sebaceous or oil gland

Drainage of the pus in the PIN
Piles that come to head, the use of
vaccines and the use of the x-ray-
one of the qualities of which is to
kill infection-are all established
accessory methods of treatment.
