TOO MUCH WORRYING
ABOUT AMERICAN PEOPLE

Washington can quit worrying about
over-optimism among the American pub
lie. 1t will give them that much more
time to straighten out few of the things
which have the American public, in turn,
worried about Washington
The american public, God bless it, is
ideally trained against disastrous effects
of over-optimism. Not that the public
doesn't sometimes become OVer-optlmlS-
tic. 1t does. The grand part of it is
that we are perfectly conditioned against
the deflatiOn which, to another people,
might prove fatal.
Right now we're tickled pink about the
North African situation. We're telling
ourselves that Hitler's move into France
isn't bad for us-it's really good for us
We swear up and down that the turning
point of the war has been reached. and
never again will the Germans score more
than isolated victories on scattered fronts.
We're over-optimiStic to beat all.
The point is we know it.
How come? Well, it's this way All
our lives we've rooted heart and soul for
the New York Yankees, the Brooklyn
!. Dodgers, the st. Louis Cardinals, or some
body else in the major baseball leagues.
All our lives we've staked our whole
hopes on Notre Dame, the TrOJanS, Berke-
ley or some other collegiate football team.
We've started right in at the beginnings
of the various seasons, and we've been
perfectly willing to knock the block off
the man who so much as limited that
our favorite team could lose. Every time
our team has lost, as the season progress
ed. we've insisted that it was just a fluke.
"Wait until they get rolling" we'd de-
clare. And if they didn't get rolling dur
ing that season-and here is the Ameri-
can pure and simple, at his best-we'd d
shrug it off and come back with, It'll be
different story next season.
Maybe it seems like a far cry from
roofing for a football team to helping
win a war. It's not so far The morale
factor is the same in both cases.
Sure, we're over-optimistic. That's our
national characteristic But we've train
ed ourselves to see our fOndaSt hopes
smashed to smithereens, and still come
back for the next round. And that is
exactly what is going to win this war
for us.

g. And this is unfortunate. On
November %, every householder,
restaurant or other coffee user
should make a note of the amount
of coffee he has on hand. The
amount of this "hoarded" coffee
won't have to be declared until
later, but it will have to be de-
clared later and it will figure in
the amounts of coffee which ra-
ton book holders will be entitled
to in 1913.
AND DON'T CHEAT!
For anyone who thinks he can
beat this game by not declaring
boarded stocks of coffee-there is
already a regulation providing for
$4,000 or 10-year penalties Tor
making false declaration
But il is out of all this con-
fusion that the need for an over
all anti boarding regulation be-
came apparent. Price Administra-
ton officials have been careful
about giving out advance infOr-
nation on commodities that might
have to be rati0ned. In spite of
that caution there have been in
formation leaks and resulting
runs on the stores.
With a general anti i-hoarding reg
ulation in effect, maybe all that
can be stopped.

A JAPANESE
TRIBUTE

(Fullerton News Tribune)
Japan does not think too highly of the
United States Navy but it has a growing
respect for it. No other inference can be
drawn from Office of War Information
records of Jap broadcaStS following the
various naval engagements in the Pacific.
After the Coral sea battle, the Japa-
neSe ShOrt-Wave told the world that the
Pacific fleet was annihilated and drew
the conclusion: America is reduced to a
fourth-rate naval power" Evidently the
engagement at Midway when the JapS
lost four airplane carriers and numerous
other warShips did little to change that
opinion.
But after the first battle of the Solo
mons when losses were heavy on both
sides, the Jap broadcaster announced
the wholesale destruction of the Amer-
can fleet-but promoted us to the third
rate" class.
The latest comes from Domei, the Off
cial japanese news agency, which after
Il recent engagement in the South Pacific
says: Again the japanese navy has
proved its superiority over the American
navy, which now must be considered a
Second-rate power Another such vic
tory for Japan as those recorded by
Nlppons brOadcaSterS should place our
Navy where we have always thought it
belongs-in the front ranks of the world
powers.
The United States originally made the
mistake of Understanding the Japanese
The size and power of their navy and air
force was a surprise to both civilians and
the armed forces of the United Nations.
We now know that their forces-on
land, sea and in the air-are no push-over.
Evidently the Japs are slowly but surely
beginning to realize that the same is true
of the American forces. And if they stop
to think, they will be able to see what
We see-that our growing power means
their ultimate defeat.

MORE IMPORTANT
THAN SENSATIONAL

Mostly because there has been so much
else going on of a more startling nature,
the drive of MacArthur's Australians and
Americans to take back New Guinea from
the Japs has been relegated to minor
position in the news of the day. From
. the standpoint of long-range Importance
! to the war, it deserves major attention.
Firstly, of course, it is evident that
) New Guinea, in Allied hands, removes a
: serious threat to Australia proper. But
: there is another factor, of equal import
: ance. Once the Allies have taken all of
: New Guinea, and consolidated their posi-
, tions there, the Americans in the strategic
. Solomon Islands will have the best pos
. sible support. If the Japs are going to
re-take the Solomons, they must do it
. before the United Nations are firmly
established in New Guinea-or they are
lost.
The campaign in New Guinea, expertly
planned and marvelously conducted lin
spite of some politicians who have been
attempting to picture Macarthur as a
purely defensive fighter, may be the
first step on the road back to the Philip
pines.
Don't let the sensational news from
other fronts cause you to forget New
Guinea What is going on there is vital
to us-and extremely bad news to Tokyo.

Navy Sc ekins
Typic al Navy
Mother

GREAT LAKES, Ill. Nov. 20.
CUP)-The Navy began a search
today for the nations typical Navy
mother who will spend a week
at the Nayy's largest training sta
ton observing the life of the typical
Bluejacket.
She will visit every corner of the
station, eating in the sailors mess
attending their church services, and
watching the new recruits get their
uniforms and Navy haircuts prior
to boot training"
Then she will report to the several
hundred thousand other Navy moth
ers on how their sons like the Navy,
how they get their quota of vita
Minis, woolen underwear, and recre-
alton.
The typical mother will be select
ed by the letter she writes stating
her qualifications. The contest will
be conducted by newspapers, radio
stations, recruiting officers, and 10
cal Navy Mother clubs.
The letters will be turned over to
a committee of the Chicago Navy
Mothers club, which will select the
winner.
The winning mother will visit the
station from Dec. to IL as the guest
of Rear AGn. John DoWnes. She
will speak on a Meet Your Navy
radio program, reaSSuring other
mothers who sometimes worry about
their sailor sons

MORE UNION
IRRESPONSIBILITY

est. Louis POst-Dispatch)
The work stoppage at the vital East
Alton plant of the Western Cartridge Co.
is on about as slim basis as any that has
occurred in wartime in the ST. Louis area.
One employee was discharged. In order
to force his reinstatement pickets shut
several thousand employees out of the
plant and brought its ammunition pro-
duction to virtual standstill
This is irresponsibility which would
ALLEVIATE public support of trade union
ism at any time. With the nation imperil-
ed as never before, it cannot do other
than exact a price which labor cannot
afford to nav
Imperial Valley press., 1942-11-20

An official regulation prohibiting
the boarding of foods, clothing,
meats, gasoline, fuel oil or any-and-
everything else that may be ration
ed is in the works at the Office
of Price Administration II and
when it comes out, this regulation
will have all the force of any other
OPA regulation, meaning that peo-
pie found guilty of violating it will
be subject to fines and imprison-
ment up to $4,000 and 10 years in
the jail house.
The regulation may not be as
scary as it sounds. 1t isn't the
same as restoring an era of pro-
hibitiOn by official order, it isn't
intended to spy on boarded stocks
in attic or cellar, and it doesn't
enyisage any bOotlegging of ra-
toned commodities. Better than
SO per cent of the American peO-
pie are beautifully and vOluntar-
lily aiding by OPA price ceiling
orders and the antihOarding reg
ulatiOn is intended merely for the
who aren't playing fair in this
necessary business.
Need for an anti-hoarding regula-
ton has been developing gradually.
In the case of sugar, people had
to declare the amount of boarded
sugar on hand when applications
were made for sugar ration books
The public was pretty honest about
that. Similarly. when gasoline ra-
tioning was set up for the eastern
states, applicants had to state how
many gallons of reserve gas were
stored in the garage.
TIRE TROUBLE
Tire rationing went in without
any demand for declarations on
boarded tires. The situation is Just
being Strengthened out by having
every car owner declare all tires
held in excess Cf five per car turn
ing in the hoardc1 extra tires by
sale to the government.
When the coffee rationinp pro-
gram was being drawn up, it was
not planned to have applicants
declare how much coffee they had
stored in the pantry. Then the
runs on the coffee stores began,
and i'm some places they were only
slightly less frantic than at the
opening of the Cherokee strip.
BY the time this situation bad
developed, most of the educational
campaign material on the coffee
rationing program had been print
ed and instructions had gone 10
registration centers. 1t was then
too late TO change, so an alternative
plan was worked out Exact date
and methods haven't been agreed
on yet, so the whole program can't
be given in all its details, but III
general it will probably work some
thing like this:
/. Barring a last minute change

tioning program into effect will bf

WE
the Women
By RUTH MILLETT

In answer to a recent column dis
cusSing whether or not Army otll-
GERS wives should accompany their
husbands to new posts, comes TINS
reply from a captains wife:
You suggest that Uncle Sam, by
no longer looking after the house
hold goods, housing, transportation
for Army familities, etc, is limiting
that he no longer wants us to follow
our husbands.
isn't it rather a case of first
things first? With the big job OF
housing, feeding, transporting, hos
pitalizing his soldiers, there is SIM
ply nothing left over for the fam
lilies.
I'VE know that and we ask no
consideration. We pay higher
prices. Rents are often doubled by
civilian owners when a camp is
built nearby. We pay our own
transportation We gladly put up
with downright hardships, because
we know we are Wanted-by our
husbands.
For they know all too well that
these are the last few months they
will have to watch their children
playing. These are the last eve
nings with their favorite dessert
for supper, their favorite radio pro-
grams. These are the evenings
that must make up for the days to
come-the foxholes, and bombings
before them.
You suggest that an officer
whose family is with him may not
give all his attention to his job
because of family demands and
worries Don't you suppose that we,
more than others, know that these
are not times fer business or homes
as usual? We do not let our hus-
bands shoulder family worries. We
know how important their training
is. All we ask and all we get are
