War Situations At Home

The war already is creating in cidents that run the entire range from grave to gay. In Philadel- phia, a woman presents herself at a recruiting station to take up the work at the place where her dead warrior son dropped it, and is given a job. An Illinois town has a Christmas display in which Santa Claus is shown kicking Hitler. Three of the Kelley fam fly in Rhode Island go into the Navy to square the score for the killing of their Uncle Pat. Those who play cards for something other than pleasure will ante, see and raise their opponents in defense stamps, if a system or iginating in New York City is followed. Hackensack, N. J., is

Intolerance In Wartime

As of April, 1940, New York City had a foreign-born popula- ton of approximately 28 per cent and of that group, 62 percent had been naturalized. In recent speech Wendell L. Willkie said: Under the stress and strain of combat, the spirit of intolerance always rises. Suspicion begins to grow and fingers are pointed. I pledge mystelf to fight to the fullest extent against such in tolerance It is a pledge that all will do well to take Actions are a trustworthy cue of disloyalty. The same cannot be said of sur names, as an examination of the rolls of many a Legion Post, and of the tombstones in many a na- tional cemetery, will establish.

Pearl Harbor Responsibility

For a decade after the cele- brated British Light Brigade went to -annihilation, there was heated debate as to who was responsible. According to Tenny- sons poem, Someone had blum dered." The change in command ing army and navy officers, which followed the trip of Sec retary Knox to Hawaii, indicates that the United States has on hand, a problem of the Light Bri gade variety. MT. Knox is quot ed as believing that there was a lack of alertnes. Personal respon sibility will be fixed byl tho board selected by the President. A large majority of the bench of curbstone judges coincide with Secretary Knox. A dissenting minority is of the opinion that in time of peace there is no req son for expecting attack, and that the proper place for war ships is in harbor.

The 21 to A Compromise

England has elongated the draft period, to reach from 1872 to 50 years of age. The limits proposed for the United States by the Executive were 19 to A. The House decided that 2l to A would have to do. The Senate fixed the figures at 19 to A, and after conference, 20 to A was accepted as a compromise. Presi- dent Roosevelt has been criticiz- ed adversely for many of his acts, and perhaps some will now take jab at him for the implic ation that an American at A is worth no more than an English man at 50 Almost anything can be used as basis for fault find ing.

Many small foundries and ma chine shops in areas where min ing operations are carried on, as well as the mines themselves, will benefit by an amendment to Preference Rating Order P-56, announced in December by the Priorities Division. Order P-56 facilitates the acquisition of re- pair, maintenance and operating supplies by mines.
 The clause in the amendment which is particularly helpful to local enterprises is the one which assigns an extendible rating of AS to the acquisition of new mining machinery, and of repair parts, by a mine operator. This rating may be used by a mine, to which a serial number under the order has been assigned, to secure the machinery, and repair parts for it, listed in Schedule "A" attached to the order Thus, a local shop may receive the benefits of the A-3 rating by ex- tending it, if necessary, to ac- quire the materials necessary to fill orders received from a mine.
 Preference Rating Order P23, which extended rating of A-3 to the acquisition of materials entering into mining machinery, was issued only to known manu- lecturers, and hence was not available to the many small busi nesses which will now be able to fill a portion of the mines re- quirements. This Order (P-23) is not affected by the amendment.
 Other clauses in the amend ment assign an Ala rating to deliveries of materials hen there has been an actual breakdown or suspension of operations, and the essential repair parts are not otherwise aavilable; an Ale rat ing to deliveries of material up to the minimum required to make reasonable advance provi- sionS to avert actual breakdown or suspensions; and A-3 rating to deliveries of essential material or equipment of the types listed in Schedule "A"; an A-3 rating to deliveries of essential machin cry or equipment of types other than those listed in the schedule, provided that they are for use in the actual production operation of mining enterprise.
 Before applying the Ala and Ale breakdown ratings, mine operator must make application to the Director of Priorities. The same is true of the use of the A-3 rating available for the purchase of new machinery listed in Sched ule A.
 In order to apply the AS rat ing to deliveries of spare parts to the approved type of machin- cry, and the A-8 rating to del iveries of machinery and equip ment other than the types listed in Schedule A" the mine oper- ator to whom a serial number has been issued need only en- dorse on his purchase orders the following statement, Materials for a Mining Enterprise, Rating A under Preference Rating Order P-56, Seriol No. - and in compliance herewith"
 The amendment also extends the benefits of the order to re- fractory plants wholly engaged in the processing and burning of refractories, and to approved prospecting enterprises.
 Mine operators, who have been issued serial numbers under the original P56, are being notified that these numbers will remain in effect, and that they should continue to use them under the amended order.
 Applications, and inquiries con cerning Preference Rating Order P56 should be addressed to the Mine Priorities Section, OPM.

kin being notified privately. There is need of a law or exec utive order curtailing in many other respects the spreading of information that might be use ful to an enemy. The public should not be hoodwinked as to the general state of affairs, nor should the inefficient be white washed: yet there must be a mid dleground between too much sec recy and too much bulletin work. A great deal is being said about the necessity for sacrifice. Until definite regulations are laid down about the giving out of war news the individual can help by sacrificing on a small scale and painlessly: namely by giving a moderate choking constriction to curiousity.
