WELCOME CURTAHMENT

Good news to newspaper editors and others was the recent move by Elmer Davis chief of the Office of War Information in slicing drastically into the huge pile of governmental publications
 Even though the latest information says that there is no paper shortage the involved in the money that it has cost to publish these superfuous reports and the expense of mailing have been no small items.
 Millions of dollars in Federal funds will be saved by the move Davis first order discontinued 239 gov- ernment publications and curtailed cut down mail ing lists of several hundred more. Davis now has control the entire list of executive department publications for the duration and ones may not be started without his consent
 The curtalment calls for the cutting out of all documents and releases regarded nonessental to the What is surprising is the fact that all of the 523 items so far eliminated or curtailed have been those which various agencies, themselves. ad- mitted could be dispensed with curtailed If these departments so readily admitted that their publications were not essential why didn't they do away with them last December of their own free will?
 This newspaper office and all others. has been swamped with various buks of propaganda which has been taking up shipping space paying thousands of writers all for trip to the wastepaper basket.
 Hundreds of governmental releases reach us weeks after their value has routed away, many such releases months after the has been carried to Alaska by of the various press associations.
 Many of the releases duplicated many times overlapping is frequent. Many of them so cumbersome and lengthy that it would be impossible to print them m entirety.
 Davis promises further curtailment of these non- essential releases by the first of next month

Kaiser Shows Elm How
lPhiladeIphia Recordl

Philadelphia Record)
 The spirit that wins is the daring to do things the will tackle impossible" tasks and see them through in spite of all obstacles.
 There is no superb example of that fight ing determination than the miraculous speed with which Henry J. Kaiser has assembled the 10500-ton Liberty freiehter, Joseph N Teal in 10 days!
 That's the time from kee-laying to launching, and in a few days more the Teal will be the ocean, hauling supplies to armed forces.
 The original contract called for delivery in five months. Kaiser is cutting the time to about two weeks--or four and half months ahead of schedule.
 To most of us this is amazing. But to Kaiser it isn't who much says: "Gwan, you ain't seen nothing yet"
 And the more this West Coast genius for action acconplishes in breaking production record after another the more his aggressveness sets an example for those in official charge of conduct, some of whom at times have blocked Kaisers attempts to take on new jobs.
 Only a few months ago most folks would have laughed if Kaiser boasted he could put l0500ton vessel together in 10 days and have it in service few days later-just some brass hats laughed when Kaiser offered to build huge cargo planes in equally startling time. They're not laughing now.
 Of course, actual time in preparing materials for the To-day" vessel represents probably months of work, the same as with the US collier Tuckahoe, which launched at New York Shipyard 28 days after keel-laying during the last
 But what Kaiser obviously has mastered is lightning speed in the advance work, too, so that today his system of erecting is comparable to the speed of putting up prefabrcated houses, which much of the construction is performed elsewhere
 At any rate, Kaiser doesn't need to write any academic answers to those in Washington who used to give him the brush-off He has answered them too well by his accomplishments.

No Hardship
Cincinnati Enquirer


 The rationing of meat Americas dining table, first voluntary basis and later on an official basis will be accepted by the vast majority of the American people a minor sacrifice indeed in the interest of their country's effort
 The restriction of meat sales does not threaten to upset the American diet in any important degree In fact ingenious housewives will manage to keep their bill of fare unruffed by the change The pro- posed voluntary ration suggested by the Food Re- quirements Committee is two and one-haf pounds of meat per week per person. On such basis, the average households would be affected scarcely at all, because that is approximately the per capita meat consumption the last decade.
 As pointed out by Secretary of Agriculture Claude Wickard. ration of two and a half pounds Of meat per person in the United States would permit en- tirely adequate protein diet especially considering the easy availability of cheese poultry, and other protein-rich foods. The rationing will affect only the red meats, such veal, pork, lamb beef saus- age and mutton
 Most American households, believe, will much prefer that meat sales be handled systematically on rationed basis rather than intrust the family menu to the vicissitudes of a dsordered market where the housewife would know where to- morrow's pork chops coming from. or even ii they were coming.

OIL RUN DIPLOMATS

More than anyone realizes, the powerful hand of the big oil com panieS has adroitly reached into Washington, even under the watch ful eye of a big business critic, Pe- troleum Coordinator Ickes.
 There was time during the Harding Coolidge administrations when the State Department was the chief champion of the oil companies especially abroad; when Secretary of State Kellogg wrote high-flown notes to Mexico warning that she was on trial before the world for expropriating U. s. oil properties.
 But now the State Department champions square deal to Mexico much to the consternation of the oil men who have infiltrated into the government.
 Recently the State Department proposed sending an economic mis- sion to Mexico to study closer CO., operation with our neighboring ally against the Axis. On the mission it appointed an outstanding oil ex- jert, William J. Kemnitzer of La guna Beach, Calf, to study Mexican oil.
 Kemnitzer had lived in Mexico once worked as resident geologist for the Mexican Candelaria Com pany; also for Shell Oil.
 But he had made the unforgivable mistake of writing a book, The Re birth of Monopoly, plus other articles and books critical of the big oil com panies So when it was learned that the State Department planned to send Kemnitzer to Mexico, Deputy Petroleum Coordinator Ralph Davies of Standard Oil of California, and his aid, William Duce, objected viz orously
 They pulled the wires so effective ly that Cordell Hull, though usually resenting outside interference with his department, finally yielded Kemnitzer did not go to Mexico. Copyright, l942, by United Feature

INDIAN BOILING POINT

India gets little play in the press but behind the scenes it is source of growing concern among highly placed Washington officials. The U. s. government has been keeping US official mouth shut, but priVately officials are boiling over.
 Here are some of the reasons:
 l. Gandhi is held incommunicado in prison. Indian leaders who have expressed a desire to see him, to ef- feet a compromise plan, have been denied admission. No reports Of hls condition are published He could even be dead without the public knowing of it.
 2. L. s. Amery, Secretary of State for India, is following a reactionary course and is the man be n d Churchill,s intransigeance.
 3. Even Indian officials appoint ed by the British are restive. The Agent General for India m Wash ington, Sir Girja Shankar Bajpai, cannot see State Department officials without asking the British Embassy to arrange an appointment, and thus putting himself in a position of reporting to the embassy the nature of the interview.
 4. During a recent report to the House of Commons, in which mem bers were told that Indian mobs were machine-gunned from air planes, Conservative members cheer ed.
 Washington is still keeping hands off. But some of them are wonder ing how long?

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 but do not compel"
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER IA

WEDNESDAY,. OCTOBER IA
 Benefic planetary aspects rule today which should be especially fortunate for women. Persons in authority are well directed under this configuration.
 HEART AND HOME: Girls should push their greatest ambi- tions while this rule of the stars prevails. It is an suspicious date for marriage engagements and we'd dings which will be numerous all through this month. There is fair promise for women who sign con- tracts today Actresses and singers should be especially fortunate. Stu dents in high schools and colleges should work hard through coming weeks for many will be called away for service in the war. This is a favorable time for seeking either promotion or employment.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: In many cities forward looking men an d women will buy homes so that they will be established for the coming winter which will present innumerable problems to house. holders. Heating methods will fo- GUS attention and whatever is least costly will be sought. h. ventors will contribute novel ap- i paratus for cheap fuel and many will profit handsomely. War needs will inspire also numerous clever labor saving and time-saving in ventions. The nation is to become meter conscious, inasmuch as little machines will be substituted for manpower wherever possible.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: In the Western states realization of the full significance of Japanese occu- patton of the Aleutian Islands will be felt with emphasis that encour- ages criticism of what appears a major national concern regarding Nazi battle fronts. This month is to solve more than one Pacific problem, among which will be eli imitation of the enemy from oc- cupation of what is practically AL askan territory The seers warn against any sentiment that seems to divide national unity concern ing our war aims.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS The configuration in which Saturn in Gemini over Hitler's natal Nep- tune in the house of death was read as presaging foolish moves by the Fuehrer, appears to have beer wisely interpreted. Unfortunate misunderstanding or disagreements with Nazi officers are prognosticat- ed as the star of the dictator is dimmed. Evidences of mental de- H terioration will multiply, the seers foretell, until suicide or assassina- tion ends the most dreadful career in history.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of much success. Business or professional in- comes will rise.
 I Children born on this day prob- ably will be darlinoS Of the oods 1 for they will be given wonderful opportunities to make the most oi extraordinary talents.

The reforestation program of the
Ohio division Of forestry has been
launched in Putnam county, L. C.
Holtkamp county extension agent,
reported.
The first order for trees was filed
by John G. Goes of Leipsic route 2.
He plans to reforest some idle land
and to provide a wind break in Lib
erty township.
Robert j. Patton, associate forester
of the division at Wooster, has in
formed the county agent that the

The AAA pays $3.50 per acre to
farmers who plant trees on idle land
The agent pointed out that with the
price of the trees reduced the AAA
payment will more than cover the
cost of the stock of reforestatior
