If Japan Takes VladivOstOk Then Alaska in Peril

CHUNGKING, China, Jan. - The newspaper Kung Pao pub lished in Chungking urged that Russia strike now at Japan be- fore the Japs are ready to at tack Vladivostok.
 If Japan takes Vladivostok, she may easily threaten Alaska and consequently make the en- tire Pacific Ocean a veritable Japanese lake,
 to the pilots body. This tends to reduce 'blackouts' in that the pilot can in this position with stand greater centrifugal force a n d consequently increased speed and tighter spirals. In dive bombing it provides for delayed pull-outs that is, the pilot can dive to lower altitude per haps only a few hundred feet above the target, before releas- ing his bombs and pulling out. :"
 Mere Dive Bombers
 America's largest factory for the production of dive bombers for the United States Navy, the 25-acre plant erected by Curtiss- Wright Corporation at Columbus. Ohio, in only l47 days, was dedi- cated recently.
 The largest aircraft manufac- turing plant in the Middle West and one of the nations most modern examples of high-speed, mass production of naval air craft, the new structure compris- es approximately l,300,000 sq. it. of floor space and was erected al a total cost of $14,000,000, ac- NOA NlliS tO 6' w. duSlldIl, l)l GSl- dent of Curtiss- Wright Corpora tion.

 The two types of planes to be produced here are the newly de signed Curtiss Helldiver, SB2C-l dive bomber called the most powerful dive bomber in the world by CurtiSS-Wright and Navy engineers; and the newly developed Curtiss Seagull -- SO3C-l scout observation-rated as the fastest cruiser or battle ship-based airplane ever produc- ed.
 The new Columbus plant is the second of three CurtiSs- Wright aircraft manufacturing units to be rushed to completion since the national emergency.

Air Currents
By FREDERICK GRAHAM

The day may not be far distant when United States Army air men will lie prone on their sto- machs instead of sitting bolt up- right as they go into aerial ac- ton. For, according, to the cur rent issue of the Army and Navy Journal, the United States has been conducting experiments in prone flying for some time.
 The advantages of prone flying are said to be many. For ex- ample, the size of the fuselage can be cut down, thus giving greater speed and overall per formance, and wear and tear on the crews will be materially cut. According 10 the Army and Navy Journal, the German LuftWaffe has already developed such a plane, and although it is still in an experimental stage, it is said to have been flown over Europe.
 Except in high places in the United States Government, lit tle is known here about that new German craft. It is known, how ever. that it is Focke-W Wulf fight CT plane and that the pilot and tWo-man crew lie prone on their stomachs from the time they board the ship until they land.
 The Army and Navy Journal states that 1t is no secret that the United States and Great Brit ain have for some time been carrying on experiments with this revolutionary type of air craft.
 Whether the tests conducted here and in Great Britain have been successful is not known" '" the Journal states, "but inform ation seeping out of Britain would indicate that the new Spit fire has some remarkable inn provement if not prone design because it is contended that the performance of the new Sub marine Spitfire equals that of the Focke-Wulf and the German Heinkel, which is aso adapted to prone flying.
 While it is true that prone fly ing would tend to decrease the size of the cross-section of the plane and thus provide for less drag and air resistance, a big val ue also lies in the fact that it will decrease the "blackout" so often encountered by combat pi- lots today. In all conventional planes where the pilot sits up- right the centrifugal force is virtually perpendicular with the pilots body. Thus more readily the blood drains from the pilots head. In prone flying the centri- fugal force is almost horizontal

There is no reason to relax on
the job Of staying lovely just be-
cause we are in the midst Of . wari
On first thought, 1t may seem super
fetal to worry about our hipline or
our complexion when our men
actually are in combat or are train
ing for it. However, If we look
deeper into the question we will
see that just the opposite is true!
We women are told that one OF
the most important services we can
render is that of keeping our homes
free from tension and pessimism,
and making them gay, happy
refugees. In England, during the
last two years Of war, theaters have
been filled, beauty salons have done
q big business and dance spots have
been crowded. We need relief from
the grimmer aspects Of war, and
we don't help one bit when we let
our hair 60 wispy and our COM
plexion dry up.
It all reminds me Of the lovely
Southern lady I know who recently
slept through q hurricane, fully
dressed and beautifully groomed,. on
q divan downstairs, barricaded by
furniture to escape flying glass. She
did this because 1t was part of her
code of being a lady to meet disaster
gallantly while still paying tribute
to the amenities of civilization.
We women know that 1t does
something to our morale to look our
self-respecting best, and, though
men may not know that they react
to our personal appearance, we
know that they do.
We are doing everything possible
to help in the war effort, but we
will be just as brave, and maybe .
little braver, with our hpstick on,
and Just q efncient, and perhaps .
little more 30, with our hair well

form OF DuQHeI COIllIOl.
The first step is to keep careful,
accurate record Of all your expenses
for q month or two, grouping them
under such convenient headings as
food, rent, clothing, recreation, etc.
Make the record as simple as pos
sible, so that you won't quickly
abandon it as q nuisance.
BY studying this record, you'll be
able to see how your expenses can
be brought into line with your In
come. Doing this viii certainly
mean self-discipline; it may even in
volve self-denial But these disad-
vantages are nothing compared with
the lifelong headaches you'll suffer
if you don't learn this lesson Of liv-
ing within your income at the out
set.
At this point you undoubtedly ex-
pect us to come up with some solemn
advice on saving money. Sorry, but
we'll have to disappoint you. AS
soon as possible you should build up
q cash reserve to carry you through
emergencies, probably in the form OF
a savings account. But beyond that,
we don't consider saving money so
important for a young person as
learning to spend wisely.
Wise spending involves two things:
Getting sound value for the money
you pay out for necessities, and
choosing intelligently among the
many possible ways you might spend
what's left for non-essentials. This
calls for planned buying, instead OF
mere squandering on impulse. The
girl who can't resist new compact,
even though she already has a half
dozen. and the fellow who drives a
car but can't eat or dress decently,
will never be economically successful
until they learn to use their heads
in spending money.
AS for saving, try to think OF
money not as coins and bills, but
as purchasing power-the means OF
satisfying your wants and needs.
In saving you are merely conserving
purchasing power for future use.
And for the fellow or girl just get
ting a start in the world, we believe
that any surplus purchasing power
should be used now for self i'm
proyement, rather than set aside
for future use.
In his book, Managing Personal
Finances" David s. Jordan says:
"The best investment that people,
especially young persons, can make,
is In themselves. Money spent to i'm
prove oneself is money saved In the
most secure of all banks!"
That's sound sense for every young
worker. Think it over, and watch for
another column, coming soon, in
which we'll give you further sugges-
tions on handling your money.

Keep Family Healthy
Through Carefully
Planned Meals

The year 1942 will be second In
importance In our history only to
the year Its. Every man, woman
and child is anxious and willing to
do his or her part for defense Of his
country. The functions Of the
women and children will be less
spectacular than those Of our men,
whether they are in the service Of
the Army. Navy, in Government
work, in munition plants or giving
volunteer service after their own
daily jobs are done. Many women
are making valuable contributions
in connection with defense organ
izations. In addition, they have
a grave responsibility in their own
homes.
There Is nothing dramatic about
planning, buying and preparing the
three meals day. There Is q chAl-
lenge, however, more than ever this
year when our Government tells US
that we have a patriotic duty to give
our families food which will supply
everything necessary for good nutri-
ton. This means that food must
not only be selected properly but
that it must come to table in such
an appetizing fashion that it will
be actually eaten. There are two
other factors which must be consid-
cred. There must be no boarding
of supplies. It Is not necessary to
have on hand more than enough for
a few days according to every good
housekeeper's custom. Then there
must be no waste. After supplies
reach the kitchen they must be
taken care of in such a way that
there is no spoilage. At the table
plates should not be served too lib
orally, In the first place, although
there can always be plenty for q
second helping. II there are left
overs, they should be put to good
use the next day.

Curly Shortcut
Easily Managed
By Busy Ladies
Bv Patricia Lindsay

The swing Of women-at-work lof
their Nations defense has created
a new coiffure, shortcut curly
affair which Is easily brushed into
neat and pleasing halo for an
alert face.
1t is hard to find time during
these active days to fuss with IN
tricate hair-dos and for the care
of thick. long hair, so snip go the
shears and more and more women
take the leap and have their hair
cut shorter.
The younger set adores this new
pamin-cut and many smart young
matrons, particularly actresses
CHelen Hayes, Clare Booth. Hedy
Lamar, Greer Carson, to name q
few have adopted it whole-heart-
edly because Of its comfort and
completely charming elfin beauty.
It is so easily brushed into ius-
trous halo with q border Of fragile,
delicately curling tendrills which
are flattering and youthful.
The majority of these shorter
cuts are permanently waved, but
so softly and well that the hair
appears to be naturally curly.
Winds may blow. hats may be
pulled on and off and ones hair
never looks mussed. A joy, indeed,
for the woman who has little time
to primp once she leaves the sane
stity Of her own boudoir In early,
morning.
This war-coiffure seems to re-
aspond better to . hairbrush than
to a comb because brush bristles
encourage curl exactly where you
want tat the very ends.
A good brush to use Is one which
has a unique, wavelike cut to its
widely spaced bristles (the product
of strictly American firm Of old
New England. The longer bristles
in each tuft seem to catch a curl
strand and as you twist the brush
with q wrist movement the strands
are converted into aduffy ringlets.
A few forward and backward sweeps
and your halo Is in readiness for
the day. Any one would love the
brush for its beauty as well as for
its efficiency, for it comes in clear
crystal plastic, ruby, sapphire or
emerald. -....'
A good brush is a necessary
grooming tool and this especially
designed brush assures thorough
penetration to the very scalp for
stimulation and massage Essential
to hair beauty and it carries the
natural oils Of the scalp to the
very end of the hair. Thus each
hair Is cleansed and polished and

for during those 100 or 200 daily
strokes which we were taught to
do with q hairbrush.
