HOW TO LOSE A WAR

There is more than one wOy to SKIN
q cot and more than one way to lose
war. BungIing generals and SOFT
headed politicians make the enemy
hoppy Greedy Profjteering by indus
triolists and productions t o P P n g
strikes and sIowdowns by labor brighten
up things at Berchtesgoden.
These ore big, important things
about which orders con be issued and
laws posed. Not so heodIine-grobbIng
but equally dangerous to q nation OF
war ore the petty jeoIousies and un-
founded suspicious which throw the
whole concerted effort off key. Two
recent items in the news illustrate the
point
Many coIumnists and Connmento-
tors q few weeks ago made q great to-
q do over the push and drive exhibited
by citizens Of Mt GiIeod, O., and sur
rounding countryside in on effort to
enlist every man, woman and child in
some worthwhile war effort.
This was great SO for as it went,
but there was considerably more smoke
than fire. Seems that several people
ct Mt. Gieod adopted the attitude Of
the small boy who owns the football:
You let f71e Ploy quarterback or you
cont use my ball." They stalled and
held back. Regardless Of who was to
blame, or whether any body was at fault
il is childish for adults to suIk in that
manner at any time. But when an
American citizen today stomps his foot
and sticks out his lower lip just becouse
he isn't Leading the parade it smocks
Of the ottitude which tied France in SO
many knots that one became q moose.
Happily, the good people Of Mt
0ileod realized in time they we're slip
ping backward two feet for every one
they gained. Wiser heads prevailed,
they SGT down like grownups to toIk
things over and came out fighting, but
not each other. Now they are func-
tioning as one team and its work, not
street corner wroneIing and bock-bting
which occupies them.
A more violent form Of ridiculous
jealousy fIored in q California town
when two candidates for leader Of the
home guard fought it out with pistols.
Their Workmanship and bullets
should have been saved for the enemy.
All in all, our country is doinq
good job Of getting set to land thot
knockout blow Most citizens perform
their tasks, buy bonds and pay toxes,
do with less sugar and rubber cheer
fully. The squowkers, happily make
very small minority, and Americans
sometimes just have to beef or they
wouldn't be Americans.
The danger Of ieoIousies and throot
cutting among persons who should be
working shoulder to shoulder, however,
threatens to split many O town, orqoni-
zotion or group About the only way
to dam up such flood is for everyone
to toke O long look at themselves and

Reds Report Advances
Through Holes knitted
In Line Near Bryansk
Dozen Settlements Which
Nuzis Abandoned Are
Occupied, Soviet Says
B' TIE Associated Press.

KUIBYSHEV, Russia, April 16,
Red Army units, which knitted
through the first line of Nazi
Notifications in the BryanSk sec
tor southwest of Moscow, have
advanced and occupied a dozen
settlements abandoned by the
Germans, dispatches said today.
A central front report related that
the Germans were increasing their
troop reinforcements constantly for
sparring attacks against the Red
Army.
1t cited 16 minor counterattacks
by the 263d German Division. The
63d Division was said to have tried
II, all failing, and six reserve bat
talions which recently joined the
63d were said to have been badly
mauled.
Thawing of snow banks has un-
covered the bodies of Germans killed
in winter operations, adding to hor-
rible aspects of the front, the dis
patch said.
Counterattacks Repulsed.
Red Army forces, already credited
with breaking the first German lines
in the Bryansk sector, have repulSed
reserve -bolstered counterattacks and
captured another fortified point on
the central front, the Russians an
nounced. The exact site of the
battle was not identified.
The midday communique reported
there were no significant changes
at the front" overnight.
Front-line dispatches said guer-
rillaS hampered the movement of
Nazi reinforcements to the Bryansk
sector, where GermanyS divisions re-
putedly are directed by Field Mar
shall Gen. Walther Won Brauchitsch.
Before Adolf Hitler assumed su-
preme command last December 10
Marshal Won Brauchitsch was the
Nazi commander in chief.
Red Navy units in Arctic waters,
who reported the destruction of one
German transport Monday in their
efforts to cut Axis supply lines, were
said to have disposed of two more.

AssembIy-Line Technique

Production Methods and Welding
Responsible for Construction Miracle

ing to keep the wrinkles out of steel
sheets
Another difficulty with welding
was the angles from which it was
necessary to work, some OF them
almost impossible This is overcome
with the prefabrication methods to
large extent.
The ships now are launched. but
when the new ways are completed
there will be no launchings. They
will be built in docks in which the
water will be raised to sea level when
they are ready to go and they Will
simply sail out to sea.
Job for $4,000 Men.
The actual Ship-a-day record set
for next month is planned as an
accomplishment of both the yards
here and those operated by the
Kaiser interests in Oregon. Alto
gether, it is a job for about 10000
men. The full-capacity, mass-pro-
duction schedule, it is expected, will
be under way next year.
Work of constructing the ship
yards is going forward at a rapid
pace, but there Is no waiting for
the various factories where the pre-
fabricated parts are made to be
completed. The operations are being
carried on in the open while walls
and roofs are constructed.
The biggest development of all,
the company engineers believe, will
come after the war, when shipbuild-
ing-always in the past a craft for
skilled workmen-will be brought to
a stage where these yards alone may
be able to produce the total world
tonnage very cheaply.
The new plants are financed by
the Government and will be turned
over to the Government after the
war.

that Red artillery massed in depth
in the river bend had later destroy

The German version was that
progress had been made in a

of the river III the KletSkaya and
Kalach areas and that all avenues
for Russian retreat eastward across
the Don toward Stalingrad had been
cut off
