The Bureau of Labor Statistics re-

vegetables and some staples, notably
coffee, sugar and lard have boosted
the cost of the family budget per

The University of Illinois College
of Medicine has developed an mex

The method is $3.50 realible and de-

A silk fabric very similar to rayon
has been produced by an English
chemist from a chemical mixture of
seaweed and the rare metal beryllium.
Seaweed contains gelatin-like sub
stance known as alginic acid. This is
extracted easily and combined with
sodium to form so-called sodium algi-
nate. When the process of these ex-
periments is completed the result
promises to convert into gowns and
stockings thousands of tons of the

textiles.
In Siberia, sound travels farther

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

Light on English labor in wartime
is given in a new publication of the
International Labor Office entitled
"The Labor Situation in Great Brit
ain-A Survey: May-October, 1940."
The publication is one of the most re-
cent studies made by the /. L. o. in the
field of economic organization to meet
the needs of total war.
Prepared by the London branch of
the /. L. O., the study is the work of
two British economists, one of whom
is an l. L. o. staff member. The in
quiry was undertaken to present the
general picture of the social and eco
nomic problems faced by Great Britain
in its struggle for survival and the
manner in which it adapted its admin
istrative machinery and its labor and
social policies and practices in an eff
fort to solve these problems.
The machinery of control, economic
policy, the regulation of labor supply,
industrial training, industrial health
and prevention of accidents, trade
unions and the employment of women,
the standard of living, rationing and
nutrition policy-these are some of the
subjects considered in the survey.

Starting with the political and mill
tary background in May, 1910, the au-
thors present step by step the action
taken to meet the emergencies created
by the withdrawal from the war OF
Britain's Continental Allies and the
loss of material occasioned by the re-
treat from Dunkerque. The over
| hauling and reorganization of govern
ment control under the Defense Act
of 1910 is sketched; and the economic
policy of the British Government, in
Guiding financing the war, the re
striction of civilian consumption, ant
the changing export-import situation

CHERRY TREE
Where with our Little Hatchet we tell
the truth about many things, sometimes
profoundly, sometimes fippantly, some
times recklessiy. ;.
So, comes the war!

It's been difficult for many Ameri-
cans to understand just how deeply we
have gone into the smashing, crashing
holocaust of war.
But we are in-UP TO OUR EARS.
Let's face facts. Many labor men,
like many others, have found it very
hard, indeed, to grasp the bigness of
the facts. But look long at this one!
We, as nation, are sworn to the
defeat of the dictatorship Axis. Take
ten minutes to think about that
And still folks wonder whether we
will convoy ships, whether we may
send our navy into action, whether
our soldiers may go abroad
The simple answer to every question
of that kind is this:
We will do all of those things and
more, if that is necessary to the defeat
of the dictatorship alliance!
1t is simply foolish to think we will
not do those things if we have to do
them.
If and when a shooting war starts
is anybody's guess. If Hitler thinks
he can help himself and his allies by
starting shooting war on us, then
he'll start shooting, with or without
declaring war.
On the other hand, if we find it nee
essary to get into the shooting in order
to defeat the relationships, then we
shall most certainly start shooting.
You can figure the whole thing out
that way.
When you swear to defeat a man,
or nation, you do what the job calls
for
The situation is stern, indeed 1t will
mean much to every American. Pleas
ures will have to be foregone; harder
work will have to be done; costs will
have to be paid. We may come to food
rationing before it's over.
You can just say that you and all
of you will have to face whatever il
takes to win. You can be prepared fol-
anything, including shooting IN THE
UNITED STATES.
Business men, politics AND little
minded labor men who think here is
main chance to squeeze out some
thing, to build reputation or fortune
may find it hard going in these days
ahead.
Wise men gauge public sentiment
and prepare either to yield, or to fight
it through. On practices and policies
wise men generally yield to superior
force, or to hard conditions On prin.
ciples great men do not yield.
And now comes something else.
We can look for sabotage

Among some of the smartest styles
I've seen at the fashion shows were
fitted bodices and wide skirts made of
net for evening. A pink net marqui-
sette trimmed with velvet of the same
shade was lovely for a young girl. One
evening ensemble was made of net in
the 1910 version of the drop-shoulder
style. The black net was covered with
old-fashioned flowers appliqued over
the skirt and bodice. A small black
net hat with veil tied under the chin
was sweet with this.

charming room by papering the
walls in rambling rose design. Cur

wide organdy curtains framed with
rose chintz draperies which will har-
monize nicely with gay chintz slip
covers on your furniture. A beige rug
would be lovely with this combination
of colors.

Women

DR.. James M. Wood, president of
Stephens College, Columbia, Mo-, be-
lieves that the problem that faces girls
in schools and colleges today is not
what they can do for national Defense
but what they can do for national re-
covery after this war is over. The job
of the colleges today, says DR.. Wood,
is to train the leaders for the recon
struction to come. Stephens College is
primarily trying to teach its 1,750
young women that the sort of persons
needed are the ones who can keep their
feet on the ground and not give way
to hysteria. "Woman in democracy"
says DR.. Wood, "not only has to make
a home, but a living besides. Three
out of every four women live longer
than their husbands. Therefore it is
the business of the college to educate
women not only in the duties of rear
ing family, but must educate them
also to earn living and to manage
a living"

WAR TECHNIQUE

As the world concentrates upon
the bloody business OF efficient
killing in the struggle OF wartime
supremacy, it grows smaller and
smaller in point OF time and isola-
ton. Gradually the world unit as a
basis for government and business
policy is supplanting the old idea
OF independent nations.
Techpicians who gave the United
States the Sperry bombsight, rated
the worlds best and a closely
guarded military secret, announce
completion now OF additional Sc
oret items" which are "unques-
tionably superior" to anything
which has yet come out Of the
European war. This is but one ex-
ample of military advancement. If
bigger and more widespread wars
signify advancement.
Everyone has heard OF the Sperry
bombsight even though few have
ever seen one or has the least idea
how II functions. The other items
on Sperry's secret production
schedule are so secret that neither
name nor function has leaked out.
r. z. Gillmor, the brilliant organ
izer who boosted his compapy's
blind flying instrument production
from a 500 monthly average in 1898
10 1000 last month, states that in
addition TO the production OF known
defense items there is another
production schedule calling for
manufacture of many entirely Sc
cret and confidential items for the
military services"
Like the bombsight, the new Sc
cret items" came out OF the
Brooklyn and Long Island lsbora-
tories where a force OF $50 techni-
clans are inventing and improving
defense equipment six days a week.
They have turned out robot pilots,
directional gyros and gyro horl-
IONS, basic blind flying instru-
ments, sound locators, searchlights
and anti-aircraft detectors in addi-
ton to the highly secret items.
Few companies have stepped up
production to such speed on de-
Tense items. In the World War
production at the plant never rose
beyond i20 per cent. In the past
two years alone Il has been stepped
up 500 per cent. Working on that
theory that today's research pro-
jects will be tomorrow's standard
