the farm of a lifelong resident of
the Eastern Shore of Virginia, who
is one of the most prominent mem
bers of his community and at present
is serving as senior air raid warden
there.
Mrs. C. Russell Bull, wife of the
proprietor of a 36O-acre farm at Kip
topeake, Va, was quoted by the paper
as saying that in March some Army
men visited the place on a tour of
investigation and called attention to
the figuration made by the fertilizer
sacks but left satisfied after the lay
out was rearranged by her husband.
"We've been drying bags that way
for years." Mrs. Bull was quoted as
saying. "They are just thrown off
of a moving truck and it was only a
coincidence that they happened to fall
that way"
She said the incident was common
knowledge in the community at the
time and that a friend, who saw the
picture in a Philadelphia paper, had
called it to their attention.

The Dire Day to Come
CBremerton News searchlight)

(Bremerton News Search1ight
 More than 3,0O0,OO0 men and women are on the wartime federal payroll. Considerably than 25 900 men are on the Navy Yard payroll Millions of other yard workers and munition toilers like wise engaged in national defense labor All are re- ceiving tops in wages most of them making more in week than their fathers dreamed of getting in a month Mere lads are getting fifty dollars week. School girls can get their $15 week and board as domestcs and shop workers and still attend school Old folk have trouble getting light work at good wages, if they totter along and fill their jobs. All of which is sign of the times and parallel of wartime conditions But what of the aftermath, when the ends and peace comes? When jobs will be few; when money will be scarce; when wages will be low but when prices will still be high? How will the problem of reconstruction and readjustment be worked out? It is a worried question, and the time to worry is now, while there is plenty of money work and other terms of wartime prosperity. This us all up to sudden standstill when the work will halt with jolt leaving plants idle and workers likewise idle. If this is the time for national de- fense preparedness it is also the time for economic preparedness against the dire day that will come The moral, of course, is economy and thrift, now while the chance is with us But there is a brighter side to this dark picture. When you inclined to be pessimistc about the future brighten up mind with few fundamentals. First of all, there will be millions of people who will need things. We'll have in this country the greatest productive machine ever devised We'll have skilled workmen, plenty of raw materials ships to deliver finished goods and to bring back whatever need. But we'll have to accept changes. The old system which showed its weakness during the terrible years of unemployment needs changing But there is nothing sacred about anything merely because it is old. Only that is sacred which serves. New commercial practices, new ideas will take the place of older that didn't work so we'll Men with flexible minds will find new world with great opportunities ready to be grasped The will continue to shine in the future.

RAILROAD TO ALASKA

Although surveys have been made the American government still has made announcement of whether not a decision has been made to build a railroad to Alaska.
 Representative Warren G Magnuson, of Wash ngton and Alaska Delegate Anthony J. Dimond were to confer with the War Department this week on the rail proposal. Magnuson of the opinion that recent American successes in the Aleutans may slow up the desire of the officials to go all out in favor of immediate action for additional transporta tion facilities into the Territory
 If Magnuson has accurately pictured the opinion of the War Department, such a policy seems to be hort-sighted indeed.
 Obviously present transportation facilities are inadequate
 Even with the new highway in use by the first of the year the transportation facilities needed to supply any large defensive American force and es- pecially offensive force still would be too little
 The National Resources Planning Board office before it's removal from Alaska, completed survey of the use that could be expected from the high way It found that the gasoline rubber tires trucks and maintenance crews that would be required on the highway if it to supply an Alaskan force of several hundred thousand men would be stupendous
 The office further found that a railroad could very well handle such load, with less being used in the transportation less fuel involved and more freight being moved
 Furthermore, the Board reported that the nee essary steel for building such railroad from Prince George BC, to Fairbanks Alaska, could be made available.
 But railroads aren't built in a day If we are to do utmost to strengthen the defense of the Territory against the threat of invasion, railroad certainly would seem of utmost importance
 The highway is being built all right and com pleted ahead of schedule But the fact that it could have been built much earlier should not be forgotten If we are to wait until the operations of our forces in the Aleutians are unsuccessful before look to our defenses, that will be too late

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 bat do not compel"

Benefic aspects dominate today. Both the Navy and the air forces are under fortunate planetary in fuences. Among men and women there may be arguments and dis agreements.
 HEART AND HOME: Housing conditions due to mobilization of workers in Government industries will have definite effect upon families of diverse backgrounds and social interests. Democracy will de- velop as persons from many states and many lands work side by side in the great industrial plants. The fire of patriotism will destroy self ish and ignoble human tendencies, the seers predict, and unity of pur- pose will encourage development of the finer attributes. Through suf- fering there is to be purification of a people that is to be the foremost, on the globe.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS. Substitutes for materials that are scarce as war continues will supply innumerable new products of great value. Enter prise will be encouraged as novel needs must be supplied. Necessary readjustments will teach methods of economy and business will bene- fit. Elimination of many unneces- sary luxuries in the way of wrap pings and deliveries of retail pur- chases will save money and will teach buyers to avoid unreasonable requirements.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Whispering campaigns connected with the com ing election will be dangerous in the next fortnight, it is foretold. Fifth column agencies will take ad- vantage of the inclination to criti- cize and will inject faultfinding directed to Government officials, astrologers foretell. This is the peoples war so far as the United States is involved and loyalty in thought and word is as important as actual deeds. Whatever is negative or destructive in the mental attitude is dangerous.
 INTERNATIONAL A FF AIR S.. According to a foreign astrologer Asia is really the central arena of the Second World War. The Pan anna Canal is to focus interest in most important way. Here there may be a surprise accompanied with tremendous strength of naval and air forces The United Nations must look out for schemes subtle and barbaric There will be feints to draw off United Nations strength from the real object of attack and again warning is given of subvers- i've agencies at work within our lines.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of good luck. There may be temptation toward extravaganza and excess on the part of young men.
 Children born on this day prob ably will have distinguished talents that promise supreme success, if supported by strong characters.

Kiss in Kuibyshev
(Pniladelphia Record)

Philadelphia Record)
 The resourcefulness of MT Wendell Willkie never was better demonstrated than at KuibyShev.
 Imagine yourself in the position of the rowing representative of the President
 Striding to the stage of the Boshoi Theater, after an evening of the ballet to present flowers, big bouquets of them to the Russian balerna, Trina Tikhomirova
 Poets have written of the language of flowers. But that is scarcely enough, in the middle of a broad stage, with vast audience looking on. Yet what can you say-if you can't speak Russian?
 Willkie didn't hesitate to speak in a language far more nearly universal than Esperanto He kissed the ballerina-and the audience cheered
 Nothing he could have said, no tribute he could have paid, would have been half eloquent
 Dr. Henry Gibbons defined kiss "the tomical juxtaposton of two orbicular oris muscles in a state of contraction"
 The kiss at Kubyshev merely shows how little he knew about it.

troops at least to replace the Brit ish in England and defend it if the Second Front failed.
 So Churchill, the chief NO man, flew to Moscow to present his views to Stalin face to face, and if possible smooth down the rumpled feathers of the Russian leader.
 On the first day of the confer ence, all went well. Stalin, the Com munist, and Churchill, the arch conservative, got along beautifully. On the second day the experts sat down, but did not get along so we'll On the third day, Churchill and Stalin, reviewing the conclusions of the experts, came to grips. They parted on good terms, but only after being very frank and at times even belligerent with each other
 However, though no Second Front was agreed upon, Churchill did ac- complish the main purpose for which he went to Moscow. That was to allay fears that Russia might with draw from the war and make a sep arate peace with Germany How serious these reports actually were, perhaps never will be known.
 But at any rate, Stalin gave him assurance that Russia would put up the best defense possible at Stall ingrad and fight to the bitter end.
 Meanwhile Churchill promised that the Second Front would continue under discussion. Although Church ill was against it. President Roose- welt continued to be for tiff hum, anly possible. And this belief that a Second Front must be established somehow, some way, was behind his Labor Day speech, which, though ambiguous, was interpreted as pledg- ing a Second Front in Europe.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1942-10-16

is why Stalin has brought the matter so frankly and vigorously out into the open through Willkie and the Associated Press.
 What the Russians have made very clear, and what most people do not realize, is that it is not merely matter of munitions vital though that is-but also a question of keeping the Russian people alive. Russia has now lost her granaries, and millions this winter will suffer or Starve. Russia has also lost her coal deposits and is completely cut off from her oil-while U. s. oil companies and U. s. government agencies have dickered and frittered away priceless months trying to de- eide whether Russia should be given closed-down Texas oil refineries- all because the big oil companies wanted to be paid royalties (even though they never took out patents in Russia).
 Naturally, because of all this, morale is not too good in Russia. And the Willkie-Stalin statements are relatively mild compared with the sentiment of the Russian peo- pie. This is what returning Am bassador Standley doubtless will re- port to the White House, and this is one of the big factors to be con- sidered regarding a Second Front IN EUROPE.
 For Stalin has his military leaders to contend with, too.

speech at West Point definitely promising a Second Front, though fixing no time.
 Afterward, the President received a phone call from Churchill which upset him considerably Churchill warned that Marshall's speech was too definite, would arouse false hopes.
 Gen. Marshall had made the speech obviously with the advance okay of the President. and for the purpose of worrying the Germans into diverting troops from Russia to France.
 By stroke of circumstance, the President had scheduled a confer ence with Senate leaders, plus Gen. Marshall, Admiral King, Donald Nelson and other war chiefs, just before the Churchill phone call came in.
 Afterward, he was obviously upset, warned Nelson that he must have more steel, 'and don't tell me you can't get it." Then turning sharply to Gen. Marshall he warned that there were to be no more Second Front speeches.
 Churchill of course, was not pres ent at the Molotoff conversations, so high U. s. officials flew to Lon don to get his views.
 This was midsummer. Meanwhile, the Nazi mechanized legions were plunging across the plains of South Russia toward Stalingrad at the rate of 20 to 50 miles a day. Mean while, also, Army Navy needs had sidetracked certain supplies which might have gone to Russia, conveys via Murmansk had suffered heavily, and Stalin was getting more and more irate over lack Of Allied sup port.

MILITARY ADVISERS OPPOSED

Roosevelt's chief stumbling block, however, has been his own military and naval advisers, especially Ad- miral Leahy Although they have not been opposed to Second Front in certain other areas, they have been very much opposed to the kind of second front which would satisfy Stalin, namely in France or North ern Europe, where it would be a direct threat to Germany. The oc- cupation of Dakar or French West Africa apparently would not satisfy Stalin.
 But the opposition of certain high U. S. Army Navy officers to a Euro pean front has been very strong in deed. There the matter rests, which
