Tom Smith is stubborn. He

can't see tohy it should make any

lily. Why should his daughter
work to the point of exhaustion
in a defense plant? Why should
his ,Uite giue four days t0eek to
the hospital yards? Instead, tohy
don't they do their houser0ork,
and take care of their routine
Work? But his ,0ife and daugh-
ter knotO the ansrUer. They knotU
that IF everybody gets into this

l. change.
With the whole world chang
ing around him, with every day
bringing its staggering new re-
sponsibilities and sweeping
away the old ways of living and
thinking, Tom has set himself
against the current and is max
ing his family miserable be-
cause he simply won't change.
A few years ago Tom and his
wife lived peacefully in a pretty
home, with a nice japanese
maid to keep everything COM
Portable, with a son in college
and a daughter just going into
her pretty, happy late teens.
They had a car and a club and
neighbors and everything they
wanted.
But the day after Pearl Harbor
the son, Bruce, enlisted in the ma
rines; they don't know where he is
now. Then the small maid disap-
peared, and there was nobody to
take her place. So Emily Smith be-
gan to serve meals in the kitchen,
and Tom hated that. Then Elinor,
his daughter, took course in some
thing somewhere, and now Elinor
wears oily slacks and a checked
shirt and disappears every evening
at haf-past six, to return exhaust
ed after midnight and sleep until
noon. Elinor is making patterns
for the parts of some complicated
piece of armament, and she cares
for nothing in the world but that
the maximum quota shall go out of
the factory every week.
Emily, Toms wife, gives four
days week to hospital wards. She
does the hardest, grimiest work in
the world faithfully, and loves it.
War Conditions Anger Tom.
Also, she and Elinor work continu-
ally for the canteens, make sand
wiches, paste up scrap books; they
buy bonds, 60 to Red Cross rallies;
they both wear the silver button
that means they have given their
own blood to save the lives of un-
known men. All of this makes Tom
mad. He grumbles and threatens;
if the women in his house don't come
to their senses pretty soon he'll go
off somewhere and find some other
women who have sense enough to
know when they're well off. What
do they expect of him? Didn't he
always take good care of his wife
and family?
'On Sunday Elinor and I always
make a real fuss. over housekeep-
ing" Emily Smith writes. 81 have
good breakfast, put the whole
house in order, wash my hair, write
letters, and at three o'clock have a
real Sunday dinner; chicken and
biscuits and dessert. But even that
doesn't please Tom, because he
scolds all through everything. Now,
this is something like! Why can't
we have this sort of thing every
day. House in order, nice dinner,
and you two looking the way you
used to! We get so tired of it. If
we say But there's a war; he says,
I know there's war; And there's
food rationing.' I know there's food
rationing.' And everybody - EV-
ERYBODY-has got to get into this
thing, and shove ahead, so that our
war effort will be the most titanic
thing that has ever happened in
this world, so that our victory will
be pressed down and running over
three times, four times bigger than
it need be, so that aggressive ma
tions won't raise their heads for a
thousand yearsl' oh, that's Just
talk he says. There are lots of
other women better suited to nurs-
ing and engineering than you two
are.'"

Uncle RWlA
Says: -

WHEN a dog tries to be So
w ciable, he means it. That's
more than we can say for a lot
of people.
1t is curious how a Pullman
porter never fails to recognize the
really great.
When a pessimist looks ahead,
all he can see is a headache.
Loue makes the rOorld go around, but
IL takes money to square 1t.
If you are so unhappy as to have
a foolish friend, be yourself wise.
You have to be on the other side
of the cloud to see the silver lining.
1t is not well to have an open
door and a locked up countenance.

Part of Axis Surrender
Which Totaled 100000

A column of German prisoners
trudges wearily through the battered
streets of Medez-El-Bab guarded by
two British soldiers. Many of the
200, ,000 Germans who surrendered
required no guard. They willingly
drove their own cars into Allied
lines aided by Allied soldiers who
waved them in the right direction
in the manner of traffic policemen.
The Ely miner., 1943-06-03

America, and think it's about time
that they walked up to the fact that
nothing has ever happened in the
world before like what is happening
now. We are going to hold firm to
the fundamental, impalpable things
that make us Americans, the divine
right we have to freedom and Sc
curity, but we are going to pay
away everything else we have; time,
money, effort, to end the war and
solidify the peace. To have your
daughter idling around the house
now, with little pretense at school
ing, and good deal of dancing and
going about, would mean that our
great war factories were short one
invaluable engineer. To have your
son at home finishing college would
mean that there was a gap in the
line between two other mems sons,
far out on the fighting frontiers;
sons just as dear as yours. To have
Emily always at home, chopping
spinach and answering the telephone
and putting your clothes-closet in
order would mean that in some far
away hospital some boy, whose life
could be saved, died for lack of care.
What are you made of, Tom
Smith, that you don't see this? That
you don't make great adventure of
it, as your wife and daughter are
doing? That you don't cheer the
women up when they get home
tired; don't pick up an occasional
dishtowel?
Win the undying gratitude and af-
fection of those two women by sud-
denly coming to your senses. Praise
them for the patriotism that is MAX
ing them pour their full devotion
into the country's need. Talk over
dinner plans with them, ask them
what you can bring home; reassure
them that the heated up beans, and
tea, and the bakery cookies, and the
salad bowl will be plenty for you.
Americas Saving Spirit.
Lets not overlook the good side
of this time of deep anxiety" a
man writes me from Terre Haute,
Ind. "God knows we would have
given our lives, we older folk, to
keep our boys at home. But the
change, the discipline, the broaden
ing they are getting aren't all bad.
And on the home front let me tell
you what one woman has done.
''The woman is my wife. Our
three boys have been in the Service
for more than a year; our girl went
to a coast city and is working in a
defense plant. Minna was left with
out child, in big empty house.
''She's taken in six small boys,
ages four to eight. Their working
mothers pay her $40 a week for
them; we have big yard, a big at
tic, and now-thanks to my wonder
full wife-a big family. She is busy
all day long, and laughing most Of
it. Our meals aren't formal; no ta-
blecloths on the long table, paper
napkins, lots of peanut butter sand
wiches, apples and milk. But we're
too busy to worry, and for the dura-
tion, if we can't have our own chill
dren, we'll have children, anyway.
81 love it as much as she does, and
I love to see her so happy and be-
heve me, we are proud of that $1O0
bond every month of the year. It's
a change, but so far it's been a
good change, and we thank God for
that. We know that when the BOYS
and the girl come home there'n be
changes, too. But there's no fear in

No, no fear in your family. In
your family, Mary and Holland B.,
there's the spirit that is going to
save America.
We must all make sacrifices. And
make them without complaint.

DEFEAT IN BURMA

Recent events in Burma unfortu-
nately have pretty much punctured
the one-time world-beating reputa-
tion of Gen. Sir Archibald P. Wavel,
supreme commander in the India
Burma theater.
The Japs are reported to have
only about $4,000 men in Burma.
How many the British have in the
entire India area is a military secret
but it can't be less than a million.
However, there is one factor miti-
eating the otherwise dismal fiasco
of General Wavell-most of his
army is Indian.
Indian troops have fought well in
other wars, but not in this one.
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek, vi
tally interested in reopening the
Burma road, recently has limited at
the reason.
Would it not be better, he tactfully
suggested, to settle India's political
problems rather than lose China? In
other words, Indian troops with no
independence to look forward to, are
not going to fight their best.
CAPITAL CHAFF
q Generals Giraud and DeGaulle
are going to unite on at least one
thing-an ultimatum to Admiral
Robert of Martinique that he resign.
q WPB's Ex Vice Chairman Ferd
Eberstadt says: Before came to
Washington my crowd in Long Is
land hated Ickes, and was provin-
cial enough to agree with them. But
have found that he is one of the
best executives in Washington and
one of the few who always keeps his
word. When he promises to do a
thing, he does it."
q Tragedy of the bombing raids on
Sicily is that we have to punish
those Italians who hate Mussolini
most. The Black Hand Society,
respectable in Sicily but driven un-
derground by II Duce, is his bitter
est enemy.
G Lucy Monroe, who has sung the
Star Spangled Banner more than
1000 times, especially at Democrat
ic rallies, has had thousands of peo-
pie ask for her autograph. But the
other day, watching the Dionne
Quints launch the five Sullivan
ships, she sighed: 'tWhat wouldn't t
I give for their autographs.
