OBSERVATION POST s.E

At last Edgar Wood has had a
plane to report-his first since the
post started operation in Decem-
ber.
Mr.. Clendaniel reports that he
was doing his part in the scrap
salvage campaign by picking up
four nails in as many days by way
of his tires. He doubts if that is
Uncle Sans method and SO do we,
but seriously, let's all do our part
in this campaign.
Our C. o. has named Jimmy Hall
as an assistant c. o., which every
one will agree is giving due recog-
milton to a faithful and earnest
worker.
Among those who have substitute
ed at various times and who are
now able to take regular watches
are Ed. Steiner, Claude Gibson and
c. Bernard Shortall.
We feel that BE post made a
very good showing in the Civilian
Defense Parade last Friday even
ing. Those of us who took part
couldn't tell how we looked, but
we could tell of the feeling of sat
isfaction we experienced in re-
spending to our C. O.'s call to be
present. Weren't you pleased with
our officers who marched so proud
ly at the head of their brood" AL
though starting time was delayed,
we didn't mind so much as we were
busy coaching Clara Bennett as to
how to best carry our standard.
And no one was much buster than
Ed. Steiner who dashed up and
down the street collaring all strag-
glers and inducing them into our
lines. A good time was had by all
and we were glad to be a part of
such a worthy effort.
The following report comes from
our Asst. C. o. Harry Clendaniel:
zone morning as was subbing on
the 2-5 shift l suddenly heard a
noise which sounded like a plane
about miles in the southwest. Lis
tening again 1 made sure it was
plane. 1 rushed to the telephone
and made the following report: 1,
unknown, low, heard, code No.,
S W., miles, south, / found out
afterward that the report should
have been 1 beanhuller, low, heard,
code No., S. W., 2 miles, station
ary. Everything correct except the
first and last columns. Not bad,
eh!"

Clean Your Attic

SEEMS the general opinion that if enemy air raiders
l attack Detroit they will strike first with incendary
bombs
One of the primary lessons of civilian defense warns
householders against these ncendiary bombs.
The Detroit Office of Civilian Defense shortly will
begin comprehensive of instruction how to
fight them.
But Detroit housewives need not wait until the formal
instructions hand begin preliminary precautions
The first thing impressed upon the housewife is to
clean her attic and rid it of all nnammable materials
Doubtless nearly every Detroit attic is stuffed with
infammable stuff.
Detroit wives engage right in work of
practical patriotism by cleaning out their attcs and
dcst Dying removing to lower floors any materials that
might readily ignite.
This to be sure, is not spectacular service But it
is intensely sound one.

Deeds Will Win War

This war will be won by DEEDS not by words.
Donald NJ Nelson chief Of the War Production Board
like all successful executives Is a MAN OF DEEDS.
When he does open his mouth is to give orders not
to explain" apologize or suppose
Hearing that airplant production Was being hamp
cred bv an outmodcd priority system that put tanks and
naval vessels first he promptly ORDERED that military
aircraft should IMMEDIATELY 60 into the ALA class
top OF the list IN other words.
He said simply and succInctly that as the President
wanted 10000 airplancs this year HE WAS GOING TO
GET THEM.
He also Immediately restricted the output of civilian
pancs and cut down the supply OF aluminium the manu-
facturcrs of civilian airpianes were to receive
ON THE same day.

Red tape talk and loafng prohibited.
ITO SAVE the United States and all that is precious in

saviors of the country by the men who built the

The ancient giants who felled forests, who
literally moved our mountains and who sent the covered

rising out of the past to the defense of the country
They are the industriaists, the much DETAINED cap-

great ndustriass their souls mbued with the pioneer

An Answer
To Poisonous
Propaganda
We're NOT in This War

\ FEW weeks ago some menu
"A Der of the British House

rather pathetic complaint that,

Britain was becoming a mere

nothing more has been heard
along that line Of thought.
which probably was just as we'll
for morale on the British home
front.
But this mans disquiet was
the answer TO the most poison
Gus theme OF the traitorous
propaganda which persists in
our country. 10 wit, that this
nation is fighting a war 10 pre-
serve the British Empire.
This recurs constantly in the
enemy publicity, but | have
heard more OF it in Chicago
than in the East and believe it
must be a hangover from the
America First campaign which,
of course, included many loyal.
If mistaken. patriots. but also
was the fifth column of the Ger
mans and the Japanese.
II is a treacherous sentiment,
as hostile 10 the truth as 10 the

But, alas. when our poor. half

give them A pension, they sneak
that into a law.
II was suggested that we eX-
press our resentment by voting
those who favored the bill out of
office. But what about those
who merely voted a meek no?
l believe that those senators
who failed 10 raise their voice
against that bill should be held
in greater contempt than those
who actually voted for IT.
1t can be said in favor Of the
"for il" senator's. that they were
game enough 10 vote for a bit

thought was good even though
il proved their to hell with the
