WAR ON DANDELIONs

A spring offensive on dandelious has been declared by Wrangell's Garden Club members. Admitting that the lowly dandelion has some good points, members find that they are far outweighed by the plants bad points when it comes to harm
 in cultivated gardens. All residents are asked to aid in this simple ef- fort to make Wrangell gardens more beautiful. If you have a va cant lot. or if your yard contains more dandelions than lawn, the gar den club points out, cutting off the blooms of the weeds now will pre- vent them from spreading when they go to seed.

POPPY pay TO BE
 OBSERVED THIS YEAR
 ON SATURDAY. MAY g
By Olive Johnson
 Publicly Chairman

Topples of patriotic remembrance will bloom in Wrangell on Satur- day, May 23. Miss Irene Coulter. Poppy Chairman of the American Legion Auxiliary, announced today.
 Every man. woman and child in the city will be asked to wear d poppy on that day in honor of the men who have given their lives for America. The peoples will be dis tributed by volunteer workers from the Auxiliary and the coins contrib uted for them will be used in Leg ion and Auxiliary work for the war disabled their families and the families of the dead
 Making the little red flowers has given many veterans employment during the winter and spring months The work is limited to men receiving little or no government compensation and those with fam flies to support.
 Contributions received for the poppies on Poppy Day are a prinei-  pal source of support for the vast welfare work carried out by the Legion and Auxiliary among the disabled men and dependent famil- ies. With the new war adding to Americas list of war victims, there will be greatly increased need for funds during the coming year.
 Poppy Day has been observed by the Legion and Auxiliary annually for the past twenty years With the nation again at war, the poppy has new significance this year and will be worn as a symbol of patriotism by millions of Americans through out the country.
 More than 13,00O,O00 of the flowers have been made by disabled veterans for the Auxiliary, the larg- est number since the observance of Poppy Day was begun twenty years ago. Orders for peoples from Auxil- iary Units everywhere have been increased this year in anticipation of greatly increased demand for the flowers of patriotic remembrance.

HOW TO ADDRESS
 MAIL FOR MEN
 SERVING IN NAVY

SEATTLE The Thirteenth Naval District again calls attention to the proper methods of addressing letters to men serving in the Navy at sea or at shore points outside the United States.
 All. such letters mailed by resi- dents of the Pacific Northwest must be mailed to the man, giving the name of his ship or station. and then addressed, "care of Postmaster. San Francisco
 The single exception is for men known to be serving on Alaskan shore bases, who may receive mail via the San Francisco postmaster, or more directly if letters are address sed Care of Fleet Postoffice, Naval Operating Annex, Pier Il, Seattle.
 Navy authorities strongly emph- asize that the proper address if mail to men in the Navy is determined not by the location of the address sees ship or station, but by where the sender lives.
 Thus, a man serving on a ship in the Atlantic is addressed in care of the Postmaster, San Francisco, by a resident of the Northwest in the same manner as a men serving in Pacific waters.
 Careful observance of this method of addressing mail will insure more rapid receipt by men in the fleet the Navy pointed out, and will also protect information as to the where abouts of ships from the enemy.

Senate committee to answer testi-
mony recently given before 1t by
Chairman Truman Of the Senate
Defense Committee, but members
questioned him closely on all phases
OF his company's business.
The witness commended that Sena-
tor Truman had confused his
(Barnes) testimony about outrage
Gus" profits in the first World War
with profits in the current war, but
at the same time acknowledged that
on some contracts those of 1902
had been excessive" also.
Pressed by Senator Gillette, Demo-
crat. Of Iowa, to say who was to be
blamed for this condition, Mr..
Barnes said he would not admit that
any one could be blamed for what
had happened, but told the COM
mittee:
The blame will be on you men in
Congress If you don't get that
money back into the Treasury by
taxes in some way"
Mr.. Barnes said he regarded con-
tracts for the first few ships the
company built under the defense
program as providing excessive"
profits, but said these early contracts
had been adjusted, and that on some
ships now under contract the profit
after taxes would be no more than
seven-eighths Of l per cent.
He testified that fair analysis"
would show that the company made
around II or Is per cent" on its
invested capital last year.
Seventeen per cent is high-sure
it is" he told the committee.
However, he added, that taxes
would bite into earnings; that the
company probably would pay 81, 000,-
600 in income taxes this year.
Byrd Says Public Is ''Misled."
Senator Byrd, contending the pub
Lie had been "misled" about war
profits because they were quoted
in relation to volume Of business in
stead of invested capital, asserted
that a reasonable profit should be
based on investment return, not on
the amount Of the contract.
He asserted that Mr.. Barnes testi-
mony showed Todd had an invest
ment Of $4,000 900; that its Gov
eminent business would be $200, 000,-
900 this year; that profits would be
10 per cent Of the gross business,
producing q return of so per cent
on the investment in addition to
interest.
Mr.. Barnes disputed this conclu-
sion, asserting that 10 per cent Of
the cost was the most the company
could make on q ship contract and
that on many jobs profits would be
much lower.

tory In many ways Is q more diff
f1cult job than building a new one.
All that Is saved is a little time in
building construction and, as one
Chrysler executive expressed it,
what are four walls?"
Now the last passenger automo-
biles are coming from the assembly
line and the machinery which
produced them Is being dismantled
and stored. The corporation faces
the same problems as do the other
major automobile manufacturers
designing and obtaining delivery on
new machinery, training workers in
the jobs Of operating them. The
engineers think they have mastered
the job, some idea Of the magnitude
Of which may be had from the fact
that there are $500 blueprints,
weighing 1856 pounds, for one tank
model. The actual construction
work, they insist, has just started,
with the 5000 new tools required
mostly in place.
Otnct WSr MAtcr1aL
The regular Chrysler factories
will make some tank parts. In adj
dition to tanks, aircraft parts, anti
aircraft guns and all sorts of Army
trucks and vehicles will take the
place Of passenger cars on the pro-
duction lines. The orders already
placed amount to hundreds Of mil
lions Of dollars.
For q good many of the corpora
tons 10000 employees, the CONVEX
sion will mean hard times for a
while. 1t will be necessary to lay
of some employees for a short period
while the new machines are be-
ing made and installed. So far
as possible, however, the old ma
chimes are being adapted to new
purposes and the corporations en-
gineers have made some clever
adaptations of instruments designed
to make automobile parts into tools
for gun and shell parts. Efforts
are being made, so far as possible,
to obtain work which will fit the
machines.
In the end, although there may
be some switching of jobs, Chrysler
executives are confident that every
employe will be taken care Of in
the war program and that it will be
necessary to hire and train many
women machine operators.

War Profits
Continued From First Page)

Carpenter said, that for the entire
period from September, 1910, until
April, 1941, all Of these tools were
purchased by Remington with its
own money and for its British and
commercial production; so that II
the prices paid were high, the
money came out Of Remington's
own pocket"
Meanwhile, the story of ship con-
tract profits that were considered
excessive evenly a representative of
the builder was in the records Of
the Senate Naval Affairs Committee
following testimony before it yes
terday.
j. E. Barnes, Washington legal
representative for Todd Shipyards
Corp, told the committee that
his company had no right to
profit" on war business, and urged
Congress to reclaim by taxes certain
earnings he said were excessive.
His testimony prompted a demand
by Senator Byrd, Democrat, of Viz
ginia for an investigation Ito get to
the bottom" Of responsibility for the
profits being made by Todd. Senator
Byrd contended that the witness had
failed to give sufficiently correct
and detailed information to the
committee"
There were two other war profits
developments yesterday:
Chairman Walsh of the Naval Com
mittee proposed legislation which
would punish war contractors who
defrauded the Government, by de-
priving them Of citizenship, in ad-
dition to providing a fine and i'm
prisonment.
Attorney General Biddle an
nounced creation Of q war frauds
unit in the Justic Department under
the direction Of Fowler Hamilton, a
special assistant to the Attorney
General, to make q searching
study" Of complaints of colIusive
bidding, false representation by con-
tractors, or profteering.
Mr.. Biddle said the unit would
prosecute those guilty when such &C
ton was justified and would keep
the public informed when COM
plants were unfounded.

tertained lavishly, but Yamamoto
was especially remembered for the
after-dinner diversions he offered.
He would don q ceremonial kimono
and demonstrate his skill in the del
icate art of Japanese brush print.
The slender hands would glide out
of brocaded sleeves and produce
mysterious looking characters with
incredible rapidity. Yamamoto was
very proud Of his mastery Of the
difficult art Of Japanese caligraphy
and would present mementos OF his
work to the ladies present.
The smiling host, at the moment
Of presentation, would lisp the mes
sage of friendship he had flicked
onto paper.
Some Were Skeptical.
Some Of the American Officers
who went to Yamamoto's house sus-
pected that he had other skills be-
sides that Of Japanese character
writing. Others found 1t hard to
believe that so much hospitality and
good will could be mixed up with de-
ceit. Many Of them concurred In
the comfortable belief that it did not
matter much which theory about

Rowe Stresses importance
Of Work Done al Rio

DR.. Leo S. Rowe, director general
OF the an-American Union, COM
menting today on some of the less
pubicized achievements Of the re-
cent Rio conference, emphasized the
importance of the decision to estab-
lish a commission on continental
defense at Washington.
The resolution providing for this
commission, to be composed of mill
tary and naval representatives of
the American republics, is out
standing, DR.. Rowe said. He added:
quite as important as this mill
tary measure are the many resolu-
tons providing for the protection of
the economic and financial structure
of the countries which are members
Of the Pan-American Union.
1.-THE plans thus formulated are
destined to have preaching in
huence both on the present and the
future relations of the American
republics. They tend to set up an
American political and economic
system prepared to withstand the
shock both Of the war and the post
war periods"
