Federal Reserve Boord
Index Coins 3 Points
During Month
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Nations industrial output
pushed to a new high level, with
gains in armament production ac-
counting for most of the increase
in october and early November, the
Federal Reserve Board reported
yesterday.
The boards index rose three points
last month to 1873 per cent of the
1885, 1899 average.

well over so per cent of total indus
trial output is for war purposes, 4"

lines producing durable manufac-
lures, approximately 30 per cent OF
output now consists of products es-
sential to the war effort"
Steel output hit a new high level
equal to 100 per cent of rated capac-
lty in October, but dropped to about
SO per cent in the first half of this
month, due to some extent to shut
down for furnace repairs, the board
said.
Non-durable goods production de-
clined less than customary last
month. Textile output held it's high
level. Production of foods, espe-
cially canning, was unusually large
for the season.
Construction contracts increased,
with publicly financed projects con-
tinuing to account for more than
80 per cent of the awards.
The index of department store
sales increased from 123 in Septem-
ber to 129 in October and rose
further in the first half of November.
Retail food prices continued to
advance sharply from the middle Of
September to the middle of October

HEADQUARTERS ALASKA DE-
FENSE COMMAND, Nov. 23.-In-
decision of the japanese command
and the insufficient equipment for
the Aleutian campaign has been
clearly demonstrated in recent ac-
tivities in the northern island Sec
tor and the Japanese, who made
such brave showing in June, are
now apparently unable to decide
whether to hold even what they
have.
Although many observers believed
at first that Kiska was only an out
post for main Japanese activities in
the Aleutians developments this fall
indicate they once decided to center
all activities there, even abandoning
Attu and other island outposts to re-
inforce much bombed Kiska.
Only Few Planes Sent.
However, they may have later
changed their minds when they
made an attempt to reinforce Kiska
by air via Attu after all Kiska planes
had been knocked out of the skies in
bomber and fighter attacks by
United States and Canadian airmen
during September and early Oc-
tober.
Settling of eight Japanese planes
on Holtz Bay, Attu, couple of
weeks ago again centered attention
on that rst-occupied island. How
ever, indecision was apparent even
In the reinforcement attempt, as
only a few planes were sent boxed
atop destroyer decks toward Kiska-
only to be sighted and sunk by
American airmen.
Again, only eight planes were
sent toward Kiska in flight, al
though our fighters knocked down
six in a single days fighting over
Kiska harbor.
Offensive Attemps Patternless.
Japanese offensive attempts have
been similarly patternless. Bomb
Ing of Dutch Harbor, instead Of
being followed Immediately bv other
bombings, and landing attempts,
was followed by months when Jap
anese tried nothing extensively.
When they did attack it was with
one or two planes at a time in
bombings Of the Andreanoff bases.
One of these bombings was done by
a slow plane which had to drop
missiles far wide of the mark In
order to get away safely.

Story of Porcelain

1t was in the ll00s and l2O0s that
the Venetian traders first obtained
the Orientalware brought overland
to western Asia. but it was not I'M
til the late l50Os that the Portu-
guese accomplished the pioneer feat
Of bringing it by water around Al
RIGA. The Venetians had tried late
in the Fifteenth century to make
porcelain and experiments were be-
ing made in France during the reign
Of Louis XIV but without success.
The story of the Saxon alchem-
list, Bottger, who tried to produce
porcelain for Augustus the Strong,
has been told many times. His sue
cess in 1909 has been declared the
most important accomplishment Of
the century in that field. There were
many others in different countries
striving for the same result. Even
tually the secret of Bottger's discov-
cry became known to other German
and French potters. There followed
development in porcelain making
that gave the Continent the mastery
Of this long-sought discovery.

Vain Search

Lying awake in bed one night, the
French philosopher, Voltaire, saw a
burglar come into his room. Remain
ing motionless Voltaire watched the
man as he rif1ed one drawer after
another. Then the intruder stole
cautiously across the room and
picked up the philosophers clothes,
draoed across a chair. AS he dug
his hands into the pockets, Voltaire
could not restrain a loud laugh.
The burglar wheeled about and
pointed his gun.
why are you laughing?" he said
sharply.

that you should come here in the

Adequate Diet Is Within
Reach of All Persons

There is no rural community in
the United States so poor that it
cannot have an adequate diet" DR..
Harold Clark of Columbia univer-
sity recently told the food habits
committee of the National Research
council.
In an experiment in applied Geo.
nonics," carried on under a grant
from the Sloan foundation, the poor
est communities that could be To-
Gated in the United States were Sc
lected. An attempt was made to
improve the nutrition Of the people
entirely without the expenditure Of
any money from outside the COM
munity itself.
Health tests already indicate an
improvement in the people, reflect
ing higher nutritional level, after
only five years Of the program, DR..
Clark said. This is much more
rapid than was anticipated when the
experiment was started. At first it
was not hoped that much could be
accomplished within the span of a
generation.
Ordinary books on agriculture fail
to reach adequately the lowest third
OF the agricultural population, DR..
Clark told the committee. In the
southern Appalachian community
described by him, where the typical
family income is only $35 a year,
textbooks and even demonstrations
are often beyond the understanding
OF the people. he said.
Catching Rats
A New England trick for catching
rats was used by George Steele,
a clam-digger of Sebasco, Maine.
When the big shore rats infested
his big pile of clam shells for bits
of meat; Mr.. Steele took Is or 80
giant clans and put them in a
row near low-tide mark. The hun
cry rats would stick their shouts
inside the opened shells, the alert
CLAIMS instantly shut the shells, and
the rats noses were caught fast.
No amount of struggling got them
free, and the incoming tide drowned
the framed rodents
