Major We'll, a retired army Off

Major We'll, a retired army Off
Ger, who saw action in France in
World War /, and who has been
active in the officers reserve since
that time, made remark this week
which provides plenty of food for
thought. He said II just wish to ask
you to consider what would happen
in the event of hostilities, if bomb
were dropped in Seattle! Think of
the rush of people, army equipment,
supplies, etc. for the security of the
east side of the mountains! Think
of the terrible congestion on the ex-
tremely limited transportation ia
cilities! Yet the federal government,
represented by self centered polite
ians who are working for reelection,
i'm selecting such unfavorable loca-
tions for defense work." Everyone
army officers, Red Cross officials,
planning councils and civic author
tiles are already laying plans for the
evacuation of civilians from the
larger cities to Eastern Washington
in case of war. Why should the poll
ticians make this necessary!

A GOOD CAUSE

Those women of Kennewick who
thought the cry raised over the lack
of silk stockings and the lack OF
silk thread was just so much idle
talk and propaganda, are now fig
llring on how to conserve their pres
emit hose supply and hoping that
Santa has laid in his stock before
the mills halt production. There
will be many hosiery factories con-
tinuing to manufacture hose for wo-
men, but will use rayon yarn and
cotton thread. Many American wo-
men will be hard to sell on this
change and in order to induce them
to accept it the manufacturers will
perhaps use a campaign of "big
A number of movie stars and
socially prominent women have en-
dorsed some non-sensical styles in
the past. Why don't they make a
push for cotton and Isle hose and
wearing them themselves just to
start the ball a-rolling?

FOOD FOR GOOD

Our Secretary of Agriculture pre-
diets that food will not only win the
war but will also write the peace
terms. And many a Courier-Report-
er news reader believes him to to be
correct. With food rationing being
enacted in every European country
and with science finding it necess-
ary for a normal human to need a
required number of calories in Or
der to live healthfully, it does look
as though the food question needs
thought. For the good of ourselves
and to help Britain materially by
strengthening her food supply, we
should, according to the secretary,
include in our farm produce those
that are especially necessary for Wit
amins. Six million farmers in our
country are asked to give room to
needed fruits and vegetables, vital
dairy products and necessary pork
and beef. it means cutting down
space from corn, wheat, cotton and
tobacco but it seems to point to food
for the common good, here and
abroad.
