GLAMOUR IN THE JUNK PILE

Up to the last few months junk was just junk and an old
rubber tire was just that - maybe it could be used for a kid
swing or more likely it was thrown with the other rubbish.
How times have changed! Junk is a critical wartime mater
ial. For want of it, we are told, one steel mill lost 10000 tons
of production last month, enough metal to build three 10000
ton cruisers. Looking at it in another way, it would have been
a heavy blow to the United Nations, if our totaitarian enemies
had torpedoed and sunk to the bottom those three cruisers.
Remember that old bucket you gave in the scrap drive last
spring? Maybe it helped provide three bayonets for those
marines who used them so effectively at Guadalcanal. And you
younger people, a single old bicycle tire and tube gives
enough rubber for six army radio sets, the kind that helped
call the planes to hammer the Jap communication lines near
Port Moresby. That fat from the roast you poured in the gar
bage pail; two pounds of it would make glycerine for five
anti-aircraft shells, just like those being fired on every front,
from Libya to Stalingrad. One ancient and rusty shovel con-
tains the makin's for four hand grenades. A single farm pillow
can be converted into a hundred IS nm. armor piercing shells,
to puncture the tanks of Rommel menacing Egypt or to throw
the Nazi hordes back from the Volga.
Life is just beginning for that old vacuum cleaner you have
stored in the attic. Give it a chance and it will have a voyage
and a career that would make a New York glamour girl turn
green with envy. And this country needs it. Yes, to put it
way, there's romance in the rubbish.

w: WILLKIE, ABLE REPORTER
OChristian Science Monitor)

VIhTSuan ScItnCG NIOHIOIJ
MI. wfkie, who is respected IS a truth-tellr, has been to Russia
where he enjoyed opportunities of interview and freedom from censor
ship granted few correspondents. We now have his report; much of what
we previously suspected is now completely confirmed.
Russia has suffered losses 81 sharp they touch and stir free men
everywhere. Hardly a family remains unscathed. The choicest fields lie
waste, the gaunt horseman, Famine, sits booted and Spurred in the
saddle. Half the factories are wrecked.
Despite this, the Russians will fight on with a heroism her poets must
sing down the corridors of time; but our reporter, MI. Wllkie, after
surveying all, doubts whether Russia can contain the Naz until another
spring.
He bespeaks a major offensive in Western Europe lest the tragedy of
Russia be in vain, lest the opportunity provided by the sacrifices of a
great ally be not fully exploited.
It is nc secret that such an offensive is in preparation. Troops of a
dozen nations, including the vanguard of Americas mighty manpower.
re assembled within a few miles of the foe. When all is ready. the
signal will be given.
MI. wnke suggests we prod the generals who must give the signal
We ar reluctant to believe it necessary. Yet Mr.. Wilkie has some history
on his side. Generals seldom consider their preparations ample. Events
or the conquering urge usually drive them to attack. But there is also
other history, and other precedent, that applies to the current situation.
Generals are trained to appreciate the value of harassng an enemy on
as many fronts as possible, of attacking when an ally has worn him thin.
will Mr.. wilkes report aid the generals strategic timing IS much as
it does public understanding?

HOSPITAL VISITING HOURS

Every person who has a friend or relative in our local hos
pital no doubt feels he has a special interest in visiting him
But, hospital authorities advise, unless visiting hours are adj
hered to, the hospital routine may become seriously upset
These hours are fixed with the idea of giving each patient the
maximum attention and care. If visitors do not follow them,
they are really interfering with the patients recovery. The
problem is aggravated because of the shortage of nurses and
other hospital personnel. Every hospital has suffered in the
present shortage. Visitors will do a genuine service to the
patients by observing the schedule as provided at the hospital

WHO IS JUNGLE SAM"
Transcript of the NBC Broadcast of July 3, 1912
by. Alex Dreier
Sponsored by. Sicily Oil Company

UNCLE SAM wants men!
Uncle Sam wants money!
Uncle sam wants this, that, and the other
thing those tires and cars you can't get,
those dollars in the pay envelope that won't
go into your own pocket, the young men from
your block or home who are told to forget the
plans they've made and put on a uniform.
Did you ever ask yourself who Uncle
Sam" is?
He isn't the Army, the Supply Board, or
the Tax Collector. He isn't the President
or the Man in the Street. He is a lot of people,
living and dead and something that lives
in them.
Uncle Sam is the fellow who thumbed his
nose at the redcoats and dumped a boatload
of tea into Boston Harbor. Uncle Sam is a
bandy-legged youth named Ben Franklin who
walked into Philadelphia with the dogs yap-
PIN after him and who stayed there to es-
tablish a reputation as scientist and states
man, which sent him to the court of Louis
XIV as United States ambassador. He is the
homely boy from Illinois who wrote the
Gettysburg Address. the puny lad from New
York who grew up to be the Colonel of the
Rough Riders.
Who is Uncle Sam? He is the dreamer
who first made a boat propel itself by steam,
the farmer boy who put together the first
reaper, the visionary who drove a pair of
rails through Indian country into California.
He is Ford and Kettering and the spirit of
Walter ChrySler men with strong hands
and tough, clever brains, who have made
Detroit a name to brighten little dictators.
Uncle Sam isn't any one man. He is a
spirit, a will, a way of doing things that
marks us Americans and our country. He
is what makes us Americans, not just the
descendants of those English, Irish, Polish or
Swedish wanderers who came here genera
tons back. He is proud. two-fisted, full of en-
terprise. He is a distillation of all the divin
purpose, the deviltry, the dollar worship, or wha
have you, that moved our ancestors away fror
their homelands years ago and over the ocean
to the UNEMPLOYED New World. He is a compoun
of Irish cockinesS and Dutch determination, @
English fortitude and French ingenuity, of Bal
kan ~shrewdneSs and Nordic self-reliance. He ha
the German talent for mechanics, the African
and Italians ear for melody, the Gaelic urge :
dream, to create.
Out of this has come a drive, a gusto, al
energy which marks us as Americans - a way
ward strength which makes us do the foolisl
things, the mighty, and the beautiful things VI
have done as Americans.
Uncle Sam is simply the best Of you and me
and the way we want to live. He is what WI
want this land to be - free and tough and tenn
pestuous and tender. Yes, tender. He is thu
