LIBRARY NOTES

The following is an interest
ing new book that is now ready
for circulation at the Big Horn
County library:
westward the Course. The
New World Oceanic" by Paul
MCGUIRE.
This book went to press two
days after the battle for the
Pacific began. I. is published at
/ the moment when, in the auth
or's words, From New York to
Sydney to Singapore, there is
now one common character;
when all Americans have been
aroused to the realization that
the lands of the Southwestern
Pacific, the Oceanic world, are
vitality important to every Am
erican.
A timelier book than this
could not be imagined; it treats
of the South Pacific, those far
flung regions where the atten-
ton of the world is centered
today, and it treats of them in
the immediate present and the
actual conditions. This is an
up-to-the-minute survey of all
those lands around the South
Pacific and this includes the
Dutch East Indies and British
Malaga, giving considerable his
tory of each locality as a back
ground and a comprehensive
account of its present cultural,
political and economic status.
It is packed with information
and challenging thought.
New Zealand is a group of is
lands about the size of the Or
iginal thirteen American Colo
MES. How little we realize the
social and economic forces that
have developed down there un-
der the Tropic of Capricorn. AS
early as 1870 they had State
hospitals, State savings banks,
universal education for white
and Maoris alike. BY 1900 they
had votes for women, old age
pensions, state financing OF
farm development and a whole
series of enactments governing
working cond. tons, wages,
hours and trade unions. In 1914
out of a population of 100 900
she sent 100, 900 men overseas.
Now they have a population OF
1900, 900.
Australia, the size of the Uni
ted States, has a population Of
1000, 900 which is largely in the
cities. There is a fringe of in
habited coast and a vast inland
desert. Their social and econom-
ic legislation, too, are of an
advanced nature. They have
enormous deposits of iron ore
and their industr!a lization is
growing by leaps and bounds.
Australia and New Zealand
control the destiny of the South
Pacific in the most grim and
fatal sense of the word. If they
are lost all is lost and we see
with forcful meaning the ex-
IRENE danger in geography,
population and industrial de-
velopment in which this region
lies as the japanese advance
closes in.
Java and Sumatra, Singapore
and Malaga, the magnificent
islands of the Banda and Java
Seas are all brought out for VI
in the same clear and signifl-
cant way.
Beyond question the person
who reads this book, in add.
ton to having a good deal Of
stimulating pleasure, will know
more about a vast and greatly
important part Of the worlc
than he ever knew before.

TO HELP relieve a shortage Of
machine tool equipment the OPM
asked Fisher Body to manufacture
100 mammoth planners because the
company which normally builds
them had insufficient capacity to
supply the full requirements of the
defense program.
Backed by the tremendous re-
sources of General Motors and
more than 80 years. experience in
fabrication of the huge dies and
special tools needed in automobile
body manufacture, the body-build-
ing division swung into its new
task. Less than two months after
the contract was signed the first
planer was delivered by the Grand
Rapids, Mich, stamping plant. Fur

S YEARS OF WAR! Thdt's whot one group
Of militurY experts think about the durution.
They may be wrong but their word is bet
ter thun our guess.
What ore you doing to meet the situd-
lion? Better tdke stock Of the things you ore
short OF and buy now. This does not mean
to load up on articles 0 really don't need.
Such actions only feed the flame Of infld-
ton. Do some calm figuring.
Clothes. for instance. ore relatively low
in price. Wearing apparel will get more
costly as the wur progresses. Buy articles Of
clothing for comfort dnd wdrmth while they
ore low-priced.
If you delay buying, local merchants will
have TO replace their goods at much higher
prices.

troit, which produced patterns for
the huge planners. The men in the
foreground are completing the EN-
ter bed for a planer which, when
finished at Grand Rapids, will be
nor than 43 feet in length. In
the oval a workman is machining
the front section of a planer. The
lower left picture shows the as
sembly section at Grand Rapids,
where a virtual assembly line was
set up, believed to be the first Of
such magnitude ever created. And
at the lower right is shown a COM
pleted planer which will be imme-
diately shipped for the OPM and
put 10 work at once on the nations
defense job.

Saturday by L. T. Smell,
Detroit representative for Johns

"WhIle conserving vital mate

order as the environment and

"Our homes have always been
the foundation Of our coun-
try. Good housing now Is more
important than ever because Of
its relation TO good health and
n greater capacity to work.
Even before the War Pro-
ductiOn Boards order many Of
the materials required for home
repair and maintenance were
not on the critical list. For In

ing shingles and rock wool home
insulation have always been
available In more than enough
abundance To take care Of both

structiOn needs"
Smell said that both materials
and labor are available locally fol

Leather Supply

Despite tremendous purchases
BY the government Of upholstery

ships under construction and for
other purposes there is no danger
Of the public bc.ne deprived Of
leather upholstery FOR household
furniture.
That's the cheerful news from
the leather industry. The reason
is that consumption Of beef has
greatly increased, which means
that hides, which are a hyproduct
are more plentiful than ever.
In addition, the automobile in
dustry. which has been a tremen-
dous user OF leather is no longer
