Finally, the President asked the
repeal of the most hampering of
the restrictions, as necessary for
the insuring of delivery of the war
goods. 1t is obvious that shiploads
of planes or tanks at the bottom Of
the sea are no help to the democra-
cies. Moreover, the sinking of
merchant ships, wherever the
Nazi pirates find them, regardless
of nationality, character of cargo
or destination, demonstrates the
brigand quality of the raiders. The

Delay in supplying arms, planes,
tanks and other things vital to the
success of the stop-Hitler war is
favorite topic of those whose con-
tribution to the defense program
has been limited to criticism.
Strikes and lockouts shortages
in material and the cumbersome
processes compelled by the emer-
gency of translating a peacetime
industrial nation into an arsenal,
are all deplorable, but it is notable
that the most vehement of the
fault-finders are chary of suggest
ing means of avoiding the various
bottlenecks and other distractions
to unlimited production.
OF course, they spout remedies.
Stop the strikes, they say; that is
no easy process in democracy.
Moreover, the objective is to get
production, and not merely to curb
labor. Suppose the power existed
and was exercised to give the me-
chanics and other operators the
option Of sticking to their jobs or
being taken into the army? 1t
might or it might not - finally
result in the orderly turning out of
the maximum of capacity produc-
ton, but in the time required to
get such a system in operation
does anybody believe that the
balky element would work at top
speed? Isn't it question if men
would do their best under compul-
sion? May it not be more likely
that most of the workers would do
just enough to prevent the enforce
ment of the penalty?
Take the other side of it-those
who blame the employers. Why,
they ask, should the unwillingness
of rich corporations or individual
owners to pay their men what the
men demand be permitted to inter-
fere with the salvation of our
country? Again, assuming there
existed the authority and the will
ingness to commandeer these
plants, would the substitution of a
military officer for the directorship
of the great industries produce
goods in the volume We so sOrely
need? Moreover, who in this coun-
try would wish to see Government
in possession of the business of
the nation? Certainly none who
dread Communism or even Social
ism. Incidentally, is there any
! certainty that total Government
possession and operation would au
tomatically prevent the labor

WARRIORS
AGAINST DISEASE

American medicine. as an authority
recently observed, has a weak spot l.
is not weakness affecting the pa
tient-the sick man or woman anxi-
ously seeking a return to health Gu
rlously enough, this weakness has
helped the patient-for the weakness
lies in the fact that the medical pro-
fession has been so busy fighting dis
ease in experimental laboratories as
well as at the bedsides OF the i'll. that
it has found little time TO tell the pub
lie of its tremendous achievements.
The undeniable record is there for
all who wish TO read it. And it tells.
through the figures. a dramatic ana
inspirational story of an endless bat
tie against disease and suffering and
death
That battle has won after victory.
In the period of century and halt.
in this country the life expectancy Of
man has nearly doubled-frcn IS to

one of the greatest killers. has all but
disappeared. Smallpox and diptheria,
dreaded SpecterS not so long ago. have
been robbed of their terrors. Other
great scourges-typhoid. diabetes. tu-

control, and their mortality rates
steadily reduced.

law was passed for daylight saving
and it went into effect on the last
Sunday in March. 1918. The next
year, after much protest from farm

gress put an end to the plan.
Since that time some cities in

have followed the plan. 1t is more

farmers. Farmers say they do not

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Each year. in the spring, daylight
saving comes to many parts of
Europe and North America. In
other words, the clock is pushed
ahead an hour.
The man who is honored for
bringing about daylight saving never
lived where it was in force. He was
an Englishman. William Willett.
Willett lived in the part of Eng
land called Kent. In 1907 he began
to think of what would happen if
clock time could be changed in the
summer. 1t seemed to him that if
the clock were pushed ahead it
would mean more daylight time for
workmen after their tasks were over
ct factories.
Soon Willett began to write letters
shout his idea, and he also put out
pamphlet called The Waste of
Daylight" He said that the clock
should be moved forward 80 min
sltes in spring and should be kept
that way through the summer.
Many persons laughed about the
idea. To think of changing the
clock!
: Yet there were some who thought
h might be well to try the plan.
"A bill was put before the House of
Commons in 1908, but 1t did not
pass.

been daylight saying tor summer

South drew three rounds of trumps
and then finessed the queen of dia-

East won with the king of dia-
monds and returned the diamond
jack, forcing out the dummy's ace.
And now it looked as though only
slam; but South saw another chance.
The other chance was that West
held the four clubs, together with
the jack and ten of spades In that
Icase, West could be squeezed out of
o trick in the black suits
South therefore entered his hand
with the club king to run his re-
naming two trumps. When the
last trump was led. West held two
spades and three clubs - with
tdummy holding the same number
sof each suit behind him
( If West discarded club, dummy
would make a long card in the suit:
and if West discarded the ten of
spades, dummy would win the slam
making trick with the nine of spades
The reward for the squeeze was a
big one-1,530 points-the difference
between making the slam and rub
