earth but, say the Yanks, the Ausses have queer
ways One is their flair for holidays: another is
their passion for horseracng Australians take both
seriously. They observe a weekend holiday, with
half day Friday and all Saturday and Sunday
at leisure. This something the Americans couid
hardly understand One instance is related where
colonel landed and sent for the longshorenien to
get busy unloading. Every sorry Sir" said the boss
or "gaffer" But it can't be done. The gangs gone
ome and tomorrys holiday, carn't start
unloading till Monday This was too much for
the peppery c. o., he told the stevedofes to get
bhe heck out and enjoy their holiday as his own
troops would do the unloading This started another
objection: But that's agin union rules Sir -
The colonel gave orders for his troops to unload
without any further fooling. Then came the time
when all ready, with the cargo on the dock But
the gate-keeper refused to bulge, saying 1T was
after hours. Almost exploding with wrath, the coll
onel yelled: Sergeant get that jeep and break down
that blankety gate" Which happened The colonel
then had heart-to-heart talk with the high COM
mand of the Aussies. General we can't monkey
with holidays. These Japs aren't doing holidays but
they're on the alert all the time, and If we want to
win this mans war we've got to work all the time
and forget all about holidays. We're here to do a
job and we're getting things done' i'ie =" 'io +

The Rubber Crisis
New York Times)

(NeW York TlmeS)
When the reaching purpose of Japanese ag-
gression became manifest in 1885 the Army warned
that must pile up stocks of essential raw mater-
ais among them rubber. Congress refused to heed.
Now we are at war, and the production of synthetic
rubber to take the place of the raw material which
we have lost is still tagging. 1t is true that for some
time the technical picture was none too clear Yet
synthetic rubber strange product A few
companies here had been making it for years. Ger
Poland had developed the alcohol process to a high
pitch of perfection The Department of Agricultures
Laboratories and the Carbide and Carbon Company
had also shown that rubber could be made out of
alcohol. What needed appraisal of the known
processes.
Instead we investigated the Standard Oils patent
agreements with the German cartel for the intro
duction of Buna rubber mere and decided that the
Germans had revealed nothing of Importance Now
it turns out that the Runa process, improved by
Standard Oil, is to be our mainsay. The arguments
for alcohol as source OF butadiene brushed
aside, though Mr.. Nelson now says that if he had
to begin all over again he would turn to alcohol from
grain potatoes and other farm products. Two pre-
cous years have been lost. Even at this late day
the War Production Board has not made up its mind
what it will do with the Standard Oils new process
producing buty rubber at the rate of 100000 tons
year and stepping up The production of butadene.
AS matters stand we to spend $8O0000,00O to
produce annually 100000 tons of Buna-S partly from
alcohol chiefly from refinery gases; 10000 butyl
rubber out of butyene, refinery gas, to gvie us
something not quite good Buna-S but good
enough for many purposes; and 10000 tons of neo-
prene, the du Pont synthetic rubber At this late
day it will be difficult make any extensive revs-
ions in the program Even if turn to alcohol,
where is the necessary apparatus to come from?
About 1000 tons of copper needed to make only
$4,000 tons of alcohol butadiene not mention high
grade steel. Are we to incur delay and inten-
sfy peril by starting all over with alcohol? The
oil refineres are at present in better position than
the disteries to make butadiene. There seems no.
thing for it but to carry out the rubber program as
it stands, relying chiefly on the oil companies and
utilizing as much farm alcohol as we can

But since the fall of Tobruk,
Churchill is reported to be even
more worried. Churchill started TO
Washington on his latest trip be-
fore Tobruk was in real danger
When he got the news of Tobruk5
fall, friends say he wept. To him
it was tie most tragic blow of the
war. And Tobruk's effect upon him

In addition to these understand

"The stars incline
but do not compel"
Tuesday, August 4

| TUESDAY, August
Jupiter is in a benefic aspect
today, but adverse planetary influ-
inces arc active after the morning
hours. l eItet tlse HEfs.as
HEART AND HOME: Women ear
| under promising sway today
which shonJd be- fortunate for
those who have heavy responsible
ties. Girls who wear a Navy uni
form should be specially lucky
under this configuration which
promises much to women in all
branches of the service. Romance
probably will flourish under this
configWs ton which seems to favor
men in the air. There is a sign
warning of danger OF accident
Pleasure seekers should be cautious.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Benefits
from good crops in Canada and
the United States will begin to I've
felt. Initiation will be we'll under
control and buying of war bonds
will continue. The conjunction of
Jupiter and Venus is read as most
favorable to the general health and
we'll being of the, people, but there
may be maladies affecting the di-
gestive apparatus which temporarily
disable workers. The cost of i'll
ness in the industries will be COM
paratiyely small. 80 s.l
NATIONAL ISSUES: Astrologers
again warn against favoritism that
affects men of draft age Although
Congress has taken note of certain
deferments among employees in
Washington, D. c., there will be
discomfort among soldiers in SER
vice abroad. In a few cases poll
teal influence will be evident as
young men appear to receive spe-
cial privileges. In this war for
democracy, the seers declare, there
must be absolute equality and jus
tice exercised at home and abroad.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: AS
trologers who have studied Hitler's
horoscope find that between May
1912 ana February 1914. the stars
are most threatening to the Fueh-
rer, who will steadily lose power
and meet numerous defeats or re-
verses. in Germany there will be
secret detection among his support
ers, it as forecast, but optimism
must not be too strong among the
United Nations which will have
many months of conflict with
plenty of setbacks or losses.
Persons whose birthdate it is
have the augury of year of fin
ancial gain. Love affairs and
friendships are well directed. Specu-
lation and sudden changes should
be avoided
Children born on this day prob
ably will be most fortunate. MANY
will inherit money to aid in attain
ing high ambitions.

MIR. PETRILLO

One of the most deliberate abuses of the power
which organized labor leaders have gained is the
recent example set by james Petrillo head of the
AFL American Federation of Musicians
Apparently as part OF campaign to force radio
stations soda fountains, bars and restaurants to
employ union musicians instead of using recordings,
Petrillo has informed record manufacturers that
the $4,000 members of his organization will no
longer make records, electrical transcrptions or
any other form of electrical reproduction Of music.
The order became effective July 81.
Evidently Petrillo is under the impression that
by making this move lie will force radio stations
and to orchestras and bands instead
of recordings.
He is mistaken
The result will be simply thaat the public will hear
less music.
Small radio stations and restaurants which have
been using recordings will simply not be able to af
ford the expense of hiring an orchestra
And looking at the question from the standpoint
of Juneau, it would be impossible for the community
to round up enough orchestras to replace all of the
juke boxes. .., -,t
Even if the public were to spend more money to
create jobs for musicians it would that less
money would be spent on other jobs and other
workers would suffer. If Petrillo can place a ban
on records to make more work for live" musicians
why can't actors union place ban ON motion
pictures to make more work for live" actors.
Or why can't the messenger boys union place a
ban on telephone to make more work for the mes
senger boys?
Even now a campaign is being carried to furn-
ish records to the armed forces that men in the
service can hear music in their leisure time. Is
Petrillo going to furnish an orchestra here tooP
The unfortunate thing about the whole business is
that because the Administration, the Supreme Court
and Congress have held that labor unions are i'm
mune from the laws against restraint of trade the
way has been paved for such violations as Perillos

DIPLIMATIC NEWS

Cautious Cordell Hull and forth
right Elmer Davis staged back
stage sparring contest the other
day which almost developed into a
major rev. 1t was over the highly
controversial question of publishing
diplomatic news, regarding which
the State Department wants to
maintain strict censorship.
A State Department aide pre-
pared a letter which was signed by
Secretary Hull and addressed to
War Information Gar Davis. The
letter stated that since Mr.. Davis
was in charge of war information
the State Department would retain
control Of foreign affairs informa-
ton. 4ee tnf@
In reply, Elmer Davis wrote the
Secretary of State asking when It
was that foreign relations had be-
come divorced from the war.
Secretary Hull who was born Of
Tennessee mountaineer stock and
once enjoyed a reputation for YER
bal feuding, was about to reply with
hot letter, when one of his aides
advised that he and Davis get to-
gether personally and straighten
things out instead of hurting a lot
of written brickbats.
Note: Latest censorship code con-
tains provision against premature
disclosure of diplomatic negotia-
tons. This restriction on occasion
has been stretched to the breaking
point to cover up State Department
news.
