SOMEWHERE IN NORTHERN
AUSTRALIA, April 4 up -
Those Japanese zero fighters are
not any too eager TO tackle fly
ing fortresseS anymore.
Second Lieut.. Robert Meyer
of Birmingham, Ala. told me
about it. | spotted him as a
Princeton boy by his haircut and
sure enough he was classmate
of Butch Ko, oye, son of
Prince Fumutro Konoye, the
former Japanese premier and
once captain of the Princeton
golf team.
Meyer is co-pilot of a flying
fortress now flying from a north
Australian base after fighting in
the Philippines and Java.
TOUGH GOING
During the battles in the Phil
ippines and Java the crews of
the fortresscS has tough going.
The ships were older models
without that singer of twin So
caliber machinegunS in the tail.
The Japanese quickly found
the blind spot and would fly in
directly behind the fin, shooting
from an agile on which the fort
ress' guns could not bear.
When the newer fortresseS ar
rived it was a different story.
The first encounter was diSas-
trouS.
Our gunners held their fire
until the zeroS climbed conf

Meyer said.
"One of Gun fortresses alone

within a few minutes. since
then, the -eroS will not attack
unless they get above the fort
rcSSes.
RINGSIDE SEAT
1T used 70 be that we couldn't
see what was going on" Meyer
continued, but now the pilots
have ringside seat and usually
sight the Nips fist.
1T happens like this. The
leader take the air and circles,
we climb in behind and start
grabbing altitude heading to-
ward the target.
MY former chief pilot who
can't be named since he is now
a major was the sleepiest guy in
the world and used TO catnap
all the way TO the target area.
Once he was there he was wide
awake like the rest of US.
I'VE observe radio silence un-
til we are near the target and
then switch on the inter plane
phones.
Those zeros sure get upstairs
fast in one big circle and they
have been flying about our alti-
tude. The pilots keep strict
watch for the attackers and soon
someone will call oh, oh, there's
half a dozen at three o'clock. ,

Cosmetic
Substitutes
Are Excellent
BY DONNA GRACE

THE MANUFACTURE of our
future cosmetic requirements
will not come under the bust
ness as usual method. There
are to be some drastic changes
made but we hasten to assure
you that there will be no need
for alarm. We will have plenty
of good beauty products.
During the past week the
president of a cosmetic and
drug manufacturing concern in
vited the press to an informa-
tive meeting. 1t was for the
purpose of acquainting us with
the changes already in effect.
Seam the Same
The substitutes, along with
the original products, were Of
fered for comparison and we
believe none of the writer's could
detect any difference between
the original and the substitutes.
Some of the packaging will be
changed but creams, powders,
rouge, lipstick and all the other
numerous commodities seem just
like the ones we always used.
Even synthetic oils to take
the place of the vanished essen
tial oils were passed around for
inspection. These were all very
fine too. We were interested
TO see if they could find a chem
ical substitute for one of our
favorites. neroli oil Toll of
orange flowers) and there it
was with the usual fragrant
scent.
We were told that chemists
have been making such subsu-
tutes for a number OF years.
They find some of the substi-
tutes are more lasting and gen.
orally just as good as the oils
from the blossoms. it shouldn't
be so expensive either.
Meet Requirements
The manufacturer has been
spending a great deal of time
in Washington comforting with
government officials so as TO
meet the required standards in
everything. We may not have
metal for fancy compacts or
even lipsticks and while some
smart little paper compacts
were displayed, there is still an
enormous stock in the shops.
There will be plenty of fine
lipsticks, powders. creams and
the usual cosmetic needs, we
will not have many of the
imported brands but whether
packaged in gold, silver, tin or
paper we know they will be
quite satisfactory.
