First Pearl Harbor Raider
Believed Stunt Flyer
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
TACOMA, Wash, Dec. 10.-The
first reaction of a commanding off,
Ger to the japanese attack on Pearl
Harbor a year ago. was to order the
arrest of pilot fol- stunt flying over
a hangar
II saw the first plane come zoom-
ing over only a few hundred feet
from our command center" Capt.
Logan Ramsey, Naval operations
officer at the time, said yesterday
in an interview.
Il thought 1t was merely some
exuberant young flyer out strutting
his stuff with enthusiasm on Sun
day morning flight.
IT told an officer to get his num-
ber and to charge him with six
different violations. The officer
mentioned there was something
large and red on the twisting plane.
He couldn't get the number. The
plane was speeding away when its
DELAYED action bomb exploded.
Don't bother about numbers, said
ats the Japs.
1T was then I issued the mes
sage, wirelessed to all our forces:
Air raid on Pearl Harbor. This Is
no drill l added the latter because
we had just come through extensive
exercises"

Army Branches Yield
Critical Material
For Other Uses
Brig. Gen. Harrison Of
SOS Tells Engineers
Of Ordnance Changes

Instances OF the Army sacrifices
of critical material in one branch to
provide 1t for other and more I'M
portant manufacture were cited last
night by Brig. Gen. w. H. Harrison
Of the Army Service OF Supply.
Speaking before the American In
stitute OF Electrical Engineers, the
American Society OF Civil Engineers
and the American Society OF Me-
chanical Engineers, Gen. Harrison
said the policy requires changes in
designs and substitution, but that
enough aluminium to build 500 bomb
ers was saved by substituting steel
in a cartridge case formerly made
Of aluminium. Thousands Of tons of
brass were saved for other uses by
using steel for a primer tube former
ly made of brass.
In the efforts to accelerate the
program of conservation" Gen. Har-
rison said, I'VE are trying to avail
ourselves OF every particle Of in
formation obtainable from our al
lies and our enemies. Everything
captured or received from the enemy
is subjected to searching analysis,
and on the whole, little has been dis
covered to indicate use Of inferior
materials"
Change to Meet Conditions.
Conservation and substitution to-
day, he said, do not mean that orig
inal designs were faulty. A part de-
signed to be of aluminium may be
the most efficient and effective but
with the pressure for aluminium for
airplanes, the Army cannot AFFORD
to use it for ordnance parts, conse-
ouently a shift Is made to steel, NAL
leable iron or some other less critl-
cal material, he said.
The most exacting demand OF war.
second only to time itself, is change,
which is the most destructive force
to mass production, he said, The
influence of change not only is. felt
in revision of design and specifica-
tions to bring maximum fire power
to bear on the enemy, but also, and
equally important, he said, 1t is felt
in basic revisions of the type OF
combat units themselves which is
dependent in turn on the particular
type of warfare which must be car
ried on
Suggestions Utilized.
Considering the production re-
ouirements for a complement Of
foot soldiers as a unit of one, he
placed that OF a motorized compile
ment as two and an armored tank
complement as 81. He cited this
to indicate, he said, that there never
should be and probably never will
be any period of war manufacture
without change, both in types and
quantities.
Startling things have been done
in the field of ordnance. Gen. Har-
rison declared. He added that the
chief of ordnance canvassed all of
his contractors for suggestions and
of some 1,1O0 received, so per cent
are being put to effective work. Con-
structive work is being done and
fine interest taken by the engineer
ing societies and he particularly con-
graduated the joint group here in
Washington.
Give our men and the men of
our Allies more weapons at the COM
bat fronts" he said. "and they will
soon write the victory march"

j. 5. Asked 10 Leave Gas
And Car Taxes 10 States

BY the Associated Press.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 10.-The Ameri-
can Association of State highway
pfficials yesterday called upon the
Federal Government to retire from
the field of automobile use and gas
oline taxation so the States could
impose equivalent taxes If they de-
sired.
A resolution said the States had
pioneered in this specialized field
and, with present diminishing au-
tomotive revenues, had no available
alternative for funds to carry the
Increasing burden of highway main
tenance and reconstruction.
The association also proposed that
Congress authorize the use of pres
ent, unobligated Federal-aid high
way funds to make necessary prep
Arations for a postwar program OF
road improvements.
I A resolution said readiness to un-
dertake the prompt construction and
restoration Of highways after the
war would depend on prior planning
and early acquisition Of essential
rights of way.

Over the Top

On the basis of a $52,00O quota from Waterbury, Prospect, Miedlebury, and WOlcott there is every reason to believe that the USO drive in this city will be very successful. Just stop to think what it would mean for each and every one of us to put this drive over the top. There are far more than 52,000 adults in this area, all gainfully employed and hoping to see Uncle Sam emerge victorious in this war; Consequently if everyone mere ly gave a solitary dollar to the USO the drive would be an immediate success.
 But. everyone doesn't have to give dol lar to this drive, because of the generosity of SO many people and our large corpora tiOns. Consequently it behooYes us to make that contribution right. What some of us can't match in generosity we at least can duplicate in spirit and in promptness to do our bit for the USO. Don't wait for your next door neighbor or somebody else to donate. Take the initiative yourself and see that your own contribution is in and recorded,
 There are any number of reasons why the U6O drive should be supported, Most Of us are aware of the work that has been done and that is now contemplated. The various agencies cooperating to bring to the soldiers in training camps and m combat zones bit of relaxation, comfort, and thoughts of home are performing humanitarian tasks It's our duty at home to see that they have the means with which to carry on this most neces' saTy work.

Selected Poem
IN sTRAWBERRY TIAgE

(By Nina st, claiF Campbell in the Boston PosD The smell of strawberries from the city store, Like magic takes me back 10 days Of yore, In fancy, I'm again little child, Going a-pickiDg "stFawb-Tles,p sweet and Wlld, us children" leave our gateway haDd,iDrlaad, 4 sun-bToWned, earefFee, eager little band, And take our way across a shining stream, As lovely as the river of dreaml Crossing the bridge, we pause while to hesF The song the river sings SO crystalseleaT, And breathe in waits Of fragrance, sweet and
 strong,
 Prom Aow-Ty fields through which t rolls along Like living tapestry those meadows gleaDl- What birds of mystery the beFoHs seem, Rising on bue~gTay wings from Ry'Ty ponds Where eat-tRilg grow, like evil witches Wands, And past the darJng, greenseyed dragon files, Pale, floating lilies smile back at the sklesl Reaching the field, our young hearts thrill with gee To find ihe |stFawb'ries" thick as they ean be, And. oh, the "beTFy sBlsll' that fills the aiTi 1t seems to rise te Heaven, Ike pFayeFi
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-06-09

According to the Alexander Hamilton Institute all of the major wars in past history have been accompanied by com modity price increases. Using the index of wholesale prices of 100 for the year 1926 as a base Statisticians claim that in the nation this index went up to 1922 in January 1915 on account of the Ma poieonic wars The Civil War brought the index to 1541 and by May, 1920, the figure was up to 1872 It's noticeable that each succeeding peak has been higher than the previous one, so there is some concern over what it may reach with the present conflict raging through the en- tire world. The index in April of this year was only 988 which doesn't cause any too immediate concern. But economists aren't sure how strong the governments anti-inflation program will prove. If It stands up in the face of tremendous earning power this war may prove the exception in the price index with no dis heartening after-war effects.

Chase 'Em Home

In a situation like that which devel- oped over the past weekend your average American citizens had but one thought He was hoping with might, and main that our naval and air forces stationed throughout the Pacific would chase the JapS right into their own backyard and administer bunch of luSty kicks all the way across the sea- Even if the fight isn't carried to Nippon'S shores we hope that it will be carried on until the Japanese fleet has been given such sound thrash ing that it won't recover for many long months.
 Only some such setback will convince the Japs that American might on the seas has not as yet been really tested and that when we have brought all our re- sources and resourcefulnesS to bear the outcome isn't going to be in doubt any too long A policy of waiting for the Japanese to come out and do battle with our waiting forces will only prolong the war and allow the enemy to make re- trenchmentS. We've got to keep carrying the fight once contact has been made.
 AS yet our Pacific coast hasn't really been threatened by an invasion. There was some fear expressed after the raids on Dutch Harbor in the Aleutians and we can't relax even now and decide that the worst is over. Until the seas have been secured and the Japanese forced to draw in their battle lines from their countless strongholds throughout the Pacific there is ever the threat of our sores being visited. But we can certainly keep that threat further away by taking the fight to the Jap's own backyard.

Stop Griping

1t would be pleasant to record that the American people is awake, at long last, to the fact that we are involved in total war in which absolutely nobody can avoid making unpleasant sacrifices. That, how ever, is not the fact. In the big things, true, the vast majority takes bitter med icine without much complaint. But in the smaller, everyday deprivations which are piling upon us, we are proving to be a nation of bad sports.
 The men, young and old, who are called into the fighting services are giv- ing up the comforts of home without a murmur, and accepting patriotically an utter disruption of their economic and social careers. Wives, parents, children of our citizen soldiers and sailors are bow ing to the inevitable courageously-even proudly. Hundreds of thousands of men and women are donating most or much of their spare time to civilian defense projects, to service on draft boards and rationing boards, to the hum-drum ot registrations and to similar necessary but llnSpectacular wartime duties
 Go around the country and ask those you meet if they are ready and willing to sacrifice-if they realize that great sac rifices are neceSsary-and you will get chorus of enthusiastic affirmation. Seek specific instances in which individuals, groups, whole communities are going all out for the war, and you'll find them ga- lor9 But settle down where you will, keep your mouth closed and your ears open, and see what you learn then.
 The laundry man is abused hourly he can't call back for the wash that wasn't ready, and can't make special delivery on tho order that might as well have been given him two days earlier. Intelligent, informed women are forming "clubS" to refuse to carry packages home from stores because, forSooth, the merchants would save the cost of the service they no longer are able to render. The eastern gasoline vendor refrains from punching a rationing card, or serves 10 gallons and punches one unit, and the motorist drives proudly away. He is big shot He has got away with something.
 We're willing to work overtime at pay and half-Saturdays, Sundays and hol- idays at double time. We're willing to sell anything we have to Uncle Sanl-at the highest price we can get. These things are not true of every individual. They are so nearly universal, however, that no libel on the American people is committed when they are stated as generalties. How long will it be before we as individuals wake up to the fact that this is the great est emergency through which the civil zed wordl ever has tried to fight it's way? That no sacrifice is too great, except democracy itself, for the preservation of .emocracy?

Hot Stuff

From somewhere in Australia comes word that our soldiers there have coined a new catch phrase-"Hot Stuff coming" which means something like Make way. Let me through"
 We hate to look down long nose on the youngsters who now cover the fight ing fronts In the interest of historical accuracy, however, it should be noted that "Hot stuff coming through"-iden- tical in purport with the current phrase was as common in World War l as "okay" is today It meant anything from Move over and give be room in that crap game" to "Hiya, Toots.
