WPB Plans for Export
OF Farm Machinery

BY the Associated Press.
The War Production Board, decid-
ing how farm machinery exports
shall be distributed in the next IL
months, has taken into account
the possibility that the Nazis may
be driven from much of the area
they now occupy.
Among the nations to which ex-
ports may be sent it listed Italy,
France. Belgium, Greece. Norway,
Poland and Yugoslavia A nota-
ton added that quotas for these
countries will be allocated spe-
cifically from time to time"
Richard McGrath, WPB farm
machinery consultant, said yester-
day that reserves exist from which
these countries can be supplied
when and as they become accessible.
The locations indicated plans for
greatly expanded food production in
the South Pacific and Mediter-
ranean areas.
Australia, New Iceland. Egypt and
the Sudan, Iraq and Palestine were
allocated shipping weights ranging
from 232 to 399 per cent of their
combined 1940-41 shipping weights
Of farm machinery.
Mr.. McGrath said it is an estab-
hshed policy to grow food as close
TO the site of eventual military and
civilian consumption as possible.

tiate the question of the coun-
try's full independence.
The committee announced its de-
cision last night after hearing Har-
old Macmillan, British Minister to
French North Africa, stress the i'm
portance Of safeguarding the peace
Of the strategic Middle East area by
eliminating any further disturbances.
The committee also recalled Dele

leu in repressive measure follow
ing the Lebanon Parliaments vote
to sever ties with France.
Settlement Is Compromise.
The French action represented a
compromise with British demands.
The British had requested that
Premier Riad Sohl be reinstated
along with the president, but the
committee refused on the grounds
that the premier had promoted ex-
treme nationalist policies in con-
f1ict with the League of Nations
mandate that France holds over
Lebanon.
Riad Sohl's future, however was
left open and subject to negotiation
between the committees special en-
voy to Lebanon. Gen. Georges Ca
troux, and President Khoury.
It was Gen. Catroux who in 1941
gave both Lebanon and adjoining
Syria promise of independence in
an action underwritten by Britain.
The committee asked Gen. Catroux
to confer at once with the Lebanese
President on measures necessary
to the rapid re-establishment of
constitutional life in Lebanon"
Independence to Be Considered.
In a communique issued after
last nights hurried conference, the
committee also promised to con-
slider the question Of Syria's inde-
pendence.
The committee confirmed its de-
cision to open with the government
of the Syrian Republic negotiations
necessary to the harmonizing of the
French mandate with regime of in
dependence promised by France to
the the Levant states in proclama-
tions of 1941." the communique said.
LAS soon as constitutional life has
been re-established in Lebanon,
similar negotiations will be opened
with the Beirut government"
The committee announced that
all Is calm now in Lebanon after
the disorders of last week protesting
the arrest of the country's officials,
but British sources declared minor
outbreaks still were occurring.
The committee communique last
night made no mention of the fate
Of the Lebanese Parliament which
was dissolved by Helleu at the time

War Brings Recognition
To Psychiatry

y
There will be so many changes
after the war that a lot of words
will not even have the same mean
ings. New things and new thinking
will appear and people will have to
learn the new words in order to
think the new thoughts.
Already the war has caused psy-
chiatry to be adequately recog-
nized," according to DR.. Richard
Hutchings, who is the author Of "a

seventh edition.
This Is not book for 1aymen but
1t is exceedingly interesting to scan
its pages just to see how ordinary
words can achieve new meanings as
new thoughts about new things de-
velop. The word book is invaluable

will be more and more concerned

personal MISUNDERSTANDING.

Practical Application

II you think that sounds too high
brow, just recall the remark: Hes
had that squint ever since he saw
that terrible accident.
There are a lot more interesting
new meanings clear over to the last
word "zoopsia" which you know all
about If you ever saw 'Ten Nights
in Barroom," the great prohibit
ton play. ''Zoopsia" is what we Tin
correctly call DTS" The defini-
ton is ga visual hallucination of ami
mails or insects"
The little book also has an appen-
dix in which there are careful and
more detailed descriptions Of the
emotions anxiety, fear, pride, van
ity, etc., which we now know are
as dangerous to our mental health
when they get out Of control as
flock Of flu germs are to our bodily
welfare.
I'll give you definition of the
one emotion which is highly impor-
tant because when it gets thu upper
hand in politics, it can do as much
harm to a form Of government as
to an individual.
"Egoism and egotism are not
synonyms. Egoism is a self-seeking
desire to gain advantages at the ex-
pense of the rights, convenience or
possessions of others. It is essen.
tally antisocial. Egotism is over
valuation Of SELF. ones opinions, abil-
ity or cleverness and corresponding
differentiation Of others
Now, just apply that definition Of
egoism to blocs, political parties,
nations and you'll see why psy-
chiatry Is important in the new
world. The more people who under.
stand it, the more people will under
stand each other.
The words in "A Psychiatric Word
Book" are important words.

The army air force has been
around the world 1874, O78 times! That
is what air miles add up to-three
billion, three hundred and fifty-two
million in the fiscal year 1943.
Just how safe is the job Of pilot?
Not the job where you have to
count on the enemy fighters and the
ack-ack, but the job Of learning to
be pilot.
t'Ninety-fve out of every hundred
army air force cadets are going
through their fight training program
withsno personal injury of any kind, ;"
says Col. Sam Harris, chief, army
air force office Of flying safety.
The office of air safety is the in
stitution which has built safety into
training programs as highly en-
phasized part Of the whole regime.
1t has three main principles.
Initial Phase
The first is prevention and In
vestigation," and the keynote here
is experience. The 81 officers who
take care of this end Of the work
have a total air experience Of SO
years, 318 days in the air. These
men, known as regional safety Of
fcers (RSOs) are assigned to each
air force and command in the Unit
ed States.
J. Here is an example of how the
RSO works. He goes to "a certain
field. He meets some cadets who
say they haven't had any breakfast.
He puts that down in his notes. He
looks the place over, notes ditch
parallel to runway. He orders the
ditch filed, talks with the mess Of
ficer and has breakfast served ear
ier. Then he tackles the boys
themselves. He gives them talk
on the Importance Of instruments.
Three separate moves and the ac-
cidents are cut down there.
The second principle is flight con-
troll. Here is where the flight con-
troll officer, traffic cop Of the air,
comes in. For traffic control is as
important in the air as on the street.
The men Of this force offer a
Pilots Advisory Counsel. This serv-
ice leads pilots through or around
dangerous traffic or weather condi-
tions.
Suppose the flight control officer
in the Seattle center knows Lieu
tenant Smith is headed in that di-
rection. He also knows that a 'cold
front" is moving across his path.
So he radios Smith, tells him to
make for an alternate airport.
No. 8 on the list Of safeties is
safety education"
Safety Education
Most of the accidents in training
in the United States are due to per-
sonnet error-the fault of the human
being, not the weather or the ma
chine. This education comes through
special movies, through manuals,
through cartoons and posters.
Here are some of the slogans that
help:
Hitler and Hirohito cheer :. .
when you forget your maps !.
when you pay no attention to tele-
phone wires i. when you jam on
your brakes when you don't
check your gas :"
Other points are driven home with
a little sardonic humor such as
"when a pilot thinks he's pretty hot,
he's usually close to burning" ''To
grow old in the natural way, a pilot
has to use his luck sparingly -
The first six months Of 1943 COM
pared with all Of 1912, show these

dents:

REPAINTING CEILING

Question: Our living-room ceiling
formerly was finished with calci-
mine. After several years this be-
came dingy looking, and we decided
to take it off and put on casein paint.
The painter tried to wash off the
old calcimine, but it would not come
Off. So he put two coats Of casein
paint on over it. The finish now is
bubbling and peeling. What is the
best way to refinish the ceiling? Can
wallpaper be put on the ceiling as it
is now?
Answer: Whether you use paint or
wallpaper, all the present finish will
have to come off. Calcirnine will
come off when washed with water
containing some household ammo
MIA. To remove the calcimine and
casein paint, wash with a solution
Of three pounds Of washing soda or
trisodium phosphate in a gallon Of
water. Then rinse with clear wa.
ter. When the plaster is clean and
dry, you can refinish the ceiling with
paint or wallpaper.
