military forces and the need for
unified command appears most i'm
perative. Indications are strong that
Roosevelt and Churchill yet insist on
passing on all matters Of strategy.
When we were informed that an
American expeditionary force had
landed in North Africa, Churchill
was quick to follow it up with
statement that the idea originated
with and was planned by Roose-
welt. Able military authorities will
tell us in private that our strategy
has not been good to date. They
contend that at the outset we should
have thrown our full naval and air
strength against Japan before she
could take the rubber and oil fields
of Malaga. Our failure to do so may
prolong the war a year or two. Let
us hope that such will not prove to
be the case. We can also hope that
Roosevelt and Churchill will give
to the Allied military leaders free
hand in prosecuting this war. This
is certainly case where the shoe
maker should stick to his last.
My Thanks to Voters.
Once again the people of the Sixth
district have placed me under deep
obligation. l should have expressed
my thanks to them in last weeks
letter but at the time it was written
the returns were incomplete. AS a
result of the endorsement given me
1 will enter upon my 14th consecu-
tive term on January 4.
1t has been my privilege to have
served the people of the Sixth dis
trict during one of the most import
ant and interesting eras of the repub-
lie. Equally important and interesting
days lie ahead of us and what we do
the next five or six years will, in a
large measure, determine the future
course of our country. No matter how
much experience one may have had,
he cannot but feel inadequate to the
tasks that lie ahead. We can only
do our best and hope and pray that
it will prove sufficient to the needs
of the time. I wish it were possible
for me to thank each and every one
personally.
A New Industry.
When the Japs took over the Phil
ippine Islands they closed to us our
only source for Manila hemp. For
tunately, we are able to produce a
variety of hemp in Minnesota that
is almost, if not equally good. l
have been working on this matter
for month or more and am glad
to be able to report that consider
able progress has been made.
The Department of Agriculture will
request Minnesota to produce about
10000 acres of hemp in 1943, which
will necessitate the building of about
Is hemp processing plants in our
state. Any community interested in
securing one of these plants should
get in touch with the State Agricul-
tural College at st. Anthony Park,
ST. Paul, or the State War Board, 210
Main Post Office Building, St. Paul.
Hemp will do well in our climate
and it is my understanding that the
crop is profitable one.

BY ELIZABETH GORDON.

Two AFRAID shelters have been
introduced which can be put in the
living room or basement of any
house and will afford not only pro-
lection from falling debris. flying
glass, blasts, ETC., but safe sleeping
place.
The shelters employ no priority
materials In their construction. but
are made entirely of four-inch-
thick timbers, and can be erected in
a short time without nails or glue
Each piece, is joined by tough
wooden splints fitting neatly into
the next, to form well kpit. sub
stantial shelters that have held up
under rigid tests.
The shelter, designed on the arch
principle. would be suitable for
basement use. 1t is said by the
manufacturers that this shelter can
withstand the weight of 10 tons of
debris. It's design has the advan-
tage of scattering Immediately
whatever falls on it, A double-bed
mattress fits inside easily, with
room at both ends for books, flash
lights and miscellany. Its inside
dimensions are: Length, feet;
width, 40 inches, and height, "a
inches. Two adults and small
child could sleep in it comfortably.
The table shelter looks like a large
rectangular box with a fat top. and
was designed for use in the living
room. The sturdy bottom beams
of this shelter would distribute any
