JAP SHIPPING
San Bernadino Sun

Japan has conquered a vast empire,
but whether it has the shipping to serve
the territory it is attempting to exploit
is doubtful.
When the war opened Japan had about
6,500000 tons of shipping. 1t seized an
additional 100000 tons. 1t is estimated
that Japan has lost 100000 to 100000
tons in the war to date. Thus Japan can
have no more shipping than when it open
ed the war.
Because of its limited steel-making cap
acity Japan has turned to the building of
wooden ships of 200 tons. Such ships
will serve until the American and British
airmen and warships penetrate the inner
Jap shipping routes. Then they will be
easy prey for the Allied guns.
The United States is now building
ships at the rate of 100000 tons a
month. In three of four months this
country will turn out as much shipping
as the total in the possession of Japan.
The German U-boats sank as much as l.,
100000 tons of Allied shipping a month.
1t is not difficult to pick the spot at
which the Allies will eventually attack
Japan. We will go after Jap ships with
with vengeance. 1t could be that the AL
lies will bring the Japs to their knees
merely by sinking their ships.

A CHEAP RESPITE

These are bad days for Imperial Valley
residents as the mercury scars to unpre-
cedented heights, but like all good things,
even disagreeable ones must come to an
end sooner or later.
Going on the supposition that it will
be later than sooner, all should take GER
tain precautions, however. to make the
summer heat as bearable as possible.
Weekend trips to the mountains and
the seashore are out this year because OF
stringent OPA restrictions which regu-
late the use Of gasoline and tires.
Fortunately there is no ration limit on
one item which will at least forestall
many cases of heat prostratlon. Common
table salt, taken in sufficient quantity,
will provide internal protection from IN
a. tense suffering which may come about
as the result of depletion of reserve
amounts of the chemical in the body due
to excessive prespiration.
Every employer should provide salt
tablets, which are sodium chloride in con-
centrated form, for the protection of his
workers Every home should keep
bottle of the tablets in the medicine case.
It's cheap respite from serious conse-
uuences of heat prostration
For newcomers to the Valley it is ad-
visable that they exert themselves for
only short periods of time until their
blood becomes accustomed to the condl-
tiOnS here

OUR ALLIES HELP
TO WIN THE WAR

Battling for democracy almost as
much as Allied soldiers on the firing line
are citizens of one of our nelghboring
StateS-MeXlco.
In the last few days five men from the
interior of the republic to the south have
given their lives under fierce rays Of the
sun in the lmperial-Yuma Valley area.
working to keep this country's railroads
IN good repair
In temperatures ranging up to 1S5 de
grees these soldiers without uniforms
have spent 10 hours a day, seven days
week, with picks and crowbars making
sure that the roadbeds of vital transpor
tation lines are kept ready to accomodate
trains carrying supplies for the front
The Mexicans are in a foreign land
giving their lives under almost unbearable
conditions. This compares favorably
with the sacrifices of which many of our
fighting men are called upon to make.
Not drafted nor imbued with money
making spirit were the Nationals when
they came north to the "Estados Unldos.
They had been impressed by their leaders
of the great need for them IN the harvest
fields, on the railroad lines and in many
other places where selective service had
seriously depleted the stockplle OF man
power in the United States.
When the first trainload of them ar
rived in the Valley the Mexicans march
ed off the train in an orderly fashion and
stuck up two fingers in the greeting OF the
Allies-a V for Victory.
Since they have come they have done
an inestimable service to their nelghbors
of the north and have shortened the war
by many days.

OF them were from the southern
states.
These findings, representing
cross section of opinion from
local politicians supposedly in
close touch with affairs in their
own locality, led the Hurja sur
veyOrs to the conclusion that
there arc more anti-New Deal
Democrats now than there were
four years ago. and that they
are more intensely anti In
short, IL has been estimated that
more than a third of the dele
gates to the Democratic conven-
ton will refuse to Join In
fOurth-term movement.
Some believe that If the Demo
Gratis had preserved their two
thirds rule for nominations the
opposition could defeat Mr..
Roosevelt i'm convention"
DEWEY STRONG
It should be made clear here that
this opposition is not enough to
stop fourth-term nomination.
even If the poll accurately repre-
sents opoinion.
Huria's newest poll. to sound out
Republican sentiment on their
candidate, was made of the dele
gates to the 1910 COP. conven-
ton in Philadelphia, which nomi-
mated Wendell Willkie. The uues-
ton put to these delegates was,
who would make the best candi-
date for the Republicans in 1944?"
With third Of the delegates who
elected WilIkie replying the return
came out surprisingly with Gov.
Thomas T.. Dewey Of New York
overwhelmingly first. and Willkie
second.
TrsnsIatipg the poll returns into
electoral votes by states and
scoring the states as their dele
cations would vote in convention.
the tally became: Dewey 283,
Willkie 1888. Bricker 35, Stassen
II, Bridges 4. Eliminating the 10
states Of the solid south, the
tally was Dewey 2d1, Bricker 81,
WiIlkie 76.
One curious factor about this
poll was that it checked with the
earlier poll which Huria had made
of the Republican members of the
state legislatures which tailed
Dewey 206, BriCker 129. Willkie 10,
not counting the southern states.
In terms of general popularity with
the Republican state legislators,
however. it was Dewey first With %
per cent Willie second with 25
per cent, Bricker third with 10 per
cent
All this, of course, is just political
dope.

SAME OLD LINE
Ontario Daily Report

Where is Harold Ickes' resignation?
Or did we misunderstood President Ro-
osevelt when he issued the order that
heads of all departments and agencies
should accompany any public statement
of disputes with a letter of resignation?
When Secretary Ickes told the world
to aim criticism of the war effort at 'such
men as William Knudsen, Donald Mel
son. Edward Stettinius." he violated the
Presidents order. Upon investigation it
was discovered the Office of War Infor-
nation had cleared Ickes' speech as non
controversial. And there has been no.
statement whatsoever from the White
House.
1t is evident that it depends upon who
is blasted. If one new deal bureaucrat
blasts another, it is reprehensible. But if
a bureaucrat blasts hard working busi
nessman, that is something else again.
Havn't all successful executives been
whipping posts for this administration
for ten years? Any man with history
of achievement in business has been held
up as horrible example"
In our opinion the outstanding jobs in
war production have been done by the
Nelson's. Stettiniuses, and the Knudsens.
Our national genius lies in mass produc-
tion under capable management. All of
the nebulous talk handed out by Wallace
and Hopkins could not have produced
plane or a ship for our defense.
When the history of this war is written.
one outstanding fact will emerge. Our
production lines won it, in spite Of the
bureaucratic and political sniping at cap
able men.
Harold Ickes spoke great truth when
he said, "It isn't the new dealers who
have been running the war" Thank
heaven for that! They've been running
the home front and look at the mess it
is in.

there are no convenient locks to
cover up carelessly applied rouge.
The most important thing to re-
member when using rouge and
powder, says Penny Singleton, is
to be careful to blend it all the
way out to the hairline.
Just the way you apply your
rouge can seemingly change the
shape of your face, Penny says.
For instance, to lengthen our face,
blend rouge high on the cheek and
toward the corner Of the ees. And
to achieve a shorter effect, blend
the rouge out to the sides of the
face.
But never use SO much rouge
that 1t stands out like ball of fire,
the pert actress cautions, and sug-
gests as an ounce of prevention
that you take a piece of facial It's
sue and go over the rouged area,
especially the outer edges, then
finish with a light dusting Of pow

the Women
Ry RUTH MILLETT

IF Nom isn't fully appreciated by
the whole family in 1943 she never
will be.
For SO much more of family's
comfort depends on Mons own
effort than it used to.
Maybe Nom had a maid in the
past who was largely responsible
for the comfort of the family. But
chances are she has gone today
and Nom does all the work.
Once the family's laundry
might have been an easy matter
of pickin it up. sending it to a
laundry that returned it clean and
ironed in two or three days.
Now the laundry situation is SO
acute in many places that they
will only pick up clothes every two
or three weeks - and then not
guarantee when they will be re-
turned. Mons basement laundry
offers much better service than
that.
Also Mons meals taste especial
ly good after the family has at
tempted to take a meal out in a
crowded, under stated restaurant
with, in all probability, limited
menu. Eating at home, rather
than eating out. now looks good
to the whole family, with the pos
sible exception of Nom herself
LUCKY TO HAVE NOM
And as for Mons canning-the
entire family admires the jars of
fruit and vegetables she is storing
away in the basemen. They know
those Jars may mean the difference
between being we'll or poorly fed
next winter.
The family that has q woman
devoting her full time to home
making Is a lucky family in these
times.
For now that there are so many
services that money won't buy. at
least at the moment when they
are wanted, the Mons of the
country have really come into
their own
