COTTON MEETS
THE CHALLENGE

christian Science Monitor)
Part of the drama which attaches to
the American cotton textile industry is
shown in the resiliency of this business.
How it has managed to stay in step with
the times is nowhere better illustrated
than in the new Federal order that all
mills convert at least so per cent of their
output to war goods within the coming
90 days.
The Nations cotton mills, taken over
all, are already devoting we'll above half
their output to war goods.
In addition to vast quantities of bag
ging for sand. foods. and agricultural
products, millions of yards of camou-
flage goods, the ducks, drills, denims,
and washableS of the armed forces, the
cotton industry has somehow managed
to meet and even expand an unprecedent-
ed consumer demand for the cottons
which modern research has made style
worthy.
The figures tell the story During the
depression years the industry consumed
between five and six million bales of cot
ton year. Last year the industry used
the unprecedented total of 100000
bales. Thus far this year the consump
ton has been at an even higher level. So,
with even so per cent Of its output going
off to the wars, the cotton makers still
have the yardage represented by 100000
bales to serve domestic consumers.

WE'LL WIN WAR BY
VICTORY AT HOME

The quickest way for America to win
this war is to go all out for victory on an
economical basis, as well as on military
basis In fact, one is impossible without
the other. President Roosevelt set up a
pointer along the way Monday. Before
it is over we may have to go lot farther
than he asked, but today the least we
can do is to strive with every effort to
see that his seven points are carried out.
AS long as the procedure stays within
the framework of democracy, the method
is, after all, of minor Importance The
result is the thing. We may believe it
could have been done more easily another
way but since it is being done this way,
our interest must be in seeing that it is
done as we'll and as quickly as possible
America is fighting a war for its life
No private interests can stand above the
battle, no private pressure should be
allowed to interfere with its successful
prosecution.
The nation is on the march. It's time
or everyone to get in step.

POSTWAR AUTOMOBILE
Nevada State Journal)

Nevada State JOurnaD
The prospect of improvements in auto
mobile building is always an intriguing
subject to Americans, even though for the
present the possibility of obtaining new
tires is rather remote.
A hopeful word on postwar automo-
biles came recently from Wright w. Gary,
director of refining for the petroleum
coordinatOr's office, who said the auto
industry now is working on plans for
motor car which will use 100-octane avia-
ton gasoline. That is the answer, he
said, to what will be done after the war
with the $500,000,000 facilities for devel-
Oping the superior gasoline.
The postwar car will require less fuel
per ton-mile and will have smaller gas
oline tank and engine but greater effici-
ency, Mr.. Gary asserted.
Motorists may use their own magma
tiOns on what this will mean. One thing
is certain. A smaller engine and smaller
gasoline tank will mean a lighter car,
and a lighter car will mean less wear on
tires as well as less fuel. Perhaps motor
lists will yet feel we'll repaid for the in
conveniences which they are undergoing
now
Imperial Valley press., 1942-04-28
THE PRESIDENT SETS
A TASK FOR AMERICA

If there is any outstanding public COM
plant against the Presidents message to
congress of Monday afternoon, it is that
Mr.. Roosevelt did not go far enough.
Only events will tell whether that COM
plant is justified.
With the Presidents detectives, most of
us are heartily in accord.
We have expected higher taxes, and
are willing to pay them as means to
victory over the Axis.
We have known that there must be a
limit on profits, however it is achieved.
and not even the shrewdest businessman
will obj ect to such a limit if it is equit-
able and sensible. We feel, however,
that the President passed the buck a
little too thoroughly when he refused
even to suggest to congress what kind
of limit he wanted, or believed best.
We have been almost of a single ma
tional mind on the matter of freezing
wages, and it is in this category parti-
cularly that We felt disappointment in
the Presidents message. We take the
mental note here that this may be an
uniustified disappointment if the War
Labor Board actually does freeze wages
under the Presidents direct order, except
for necessary adjustments. So far the
War Labor Board has not entirely proved
its mettle, nor its ability to remain free
agent in spite of pressure from the labor
union Bosses The board may prove
capable of doing what it is supposed to
do. We hope so. At the same time, We
would rather have had definite assurance
in the form of legislation of what the
wage program was to be.
We have been in favor of price ceilings
long before the President paid more than
passing attention to the program. The
majority of American people welcome
his price freezing dictum intellectually,
and with the belief it will be carried out.
We have agreed with the President
all along that farm prices should not
receive preferential treatment in the mat
ter of above-parity prices. We agree
again that restrictions against curbing
the prices of farm produce should be al
tered. The President, we believe, should
have the support of the farmers them
selves in this battle, since the above-pari-
ty rules help the market manipulators
more than they do the actual crop pro-
ducers.
Nobody will disagree with the Presi-
dent about the desirability of purchasing
War Bonds, and few will take issue with
him in the matter of restricting runaway
credit facilities which might prove an
economic boomerang when the war is
over.

REINFORCEMENTS

~
Chinese reinforcements are con-
tinuing to pour into Burma from
Yunnan province in an urgent at
tempt to rescue the Lashio-Manda-
lay railway the spokesman said.
The latest Chinese communicate,
reporting a 93-mile enemy advance
north from Loilem, placed the main
japanese forces within 81 miles
of Lashio. But it was feared the
enemy now was considerably closer
The spokesman also reported that
Chinese forces had evacuated YEN
angyaung last tuesday after hold
ing that oil town in the Irrawaddy
valley for three days. The Chinese
drove down from the north to re-
capture Yenangyaung and liberate
several thousand trapped British
troops.
AS three Japanese columns fam
ned out north and east from Loilem,
unconfirmed reports said other enc
my units had re-entered the road
junction of Taunggyi 100 miles
south and slightly east of Man
dalay.
Chinese headquarters emphasized
the Importance of holding Taung-
Cyl, pointing out the necessity of
preventing reinforcements from
reaching the enemys attack forces.
Whether the Chinese still hold
Taunggyi was not clear, but COM
muniques reported fierce fighting
throughout the Shan states with
both sides suffering heavy casual
ties.

CHUNGKING, April %. CUP)-
Chinese reinforcements are pouring
