1t should be enough to state that
such program is of course contrary
to the very purposes for which this
war is being fought. But it is also
likely to result in declining farm pro-
duction, rising food prices and infla-
ton that will strike at the heart of
the entire war effort and endanger
postwar rehabilitation and the max
ing of a lasting peace.

ARMY ENGINEERS
MEET many
PROBLEMS

"All types of construction machin-
cry are in use today by the U. s..
Army ngineers-machines similar to
those used in civilian construction
work and machines specially designed
for combat engineering" according to
Lit. d. G. Batalia, of Hq. Mont. Rctg
& Ind. Dist, Butte, Montana, who re-
counted today some of the many diff
ferent jobs done by the u S. Army
ly designed TO rthis war are those
designated as 'Airborne, which means
they have been built to fit inside an
airplane or glider so that they may
be flown to their destinations.
"Airborne tractors, bulldozers,
down to midget size, but not to midget
power They have proven their worth
in the accomplishment of amazing
feats of construction in Africa and
other theaters of operations. Arriv-
ing at their destination within hours
and less of its capture by our forces,
they set to work Immediately to re-
pair and rebuild. Sometimes it's an
airfield, with. smoking bomb craters
in the runways to be filled before our
planes can use them. Sometimes it's
a dynamited bridge that must be re-
built before our troops can continue
the pursuit of the enemy. Or it may
be port, Quilted by bombs and shells,
the docking facilities of which must
be cleared for our supply ships to use.
"The Engineers are at work right
in front of the enemy-and they are
ready at any time to drop their tools
and pick up guns and fight.
Sometimes their work is under the
enemy's nose, working quietly under
camouflage to surprise him with
completed air base pointed at his
heart.
Wherever they are working,
whether it's on Alaska's ice or in
South Pacific jungle, the men and
machines of the Army Engineers are
tough, capable, and hard at work con-
structing Victory for America. Men
skilled in construction trades and be-
tween the ages of Is and so are eligi-
BILE to volunteer for service with the
U. S. Army Engineers" Lit. Batalia,
local recruiter concluded.

draft are apparently willing to have
the workers of America pay with
their rights as free workers for the
inefficiencies within industry
The factors leading to this tremen-

Princeton economists follow in part:
/. Lack of sustained cooperation
with representatives of employed
workers in the development of eff

3. Physiological Impairment due to
chronic ailments, bad eating ar

bad air, bad light or other physical
conditions on the job.
A. Insufficient sleep and relaxation
due to bad housing conditions.
5. Excessive consumption of time
and energy in transportation to

As he talked, Army Thunderbots and

In addition to the Thunderbolt which is
doing an outstanding job, General Perrin
singled out other Pratt & Whitney-powered

WASHINGTON-The US. Marines with
their Vought Corsair fighters are settling old
scores with the sons of heaven.
Ever since February, the Eau Corsair with
fts 1000 horsepower Double Wasp engine
has given them such clear-cut supremacy that
squadron after squadron is tasting revenge
for Pearl Harbor, for Wake Island, and
6nding it sweet
Members of the first Corsair Marine squad
ron to see combat danced a grimly tri-
umphant war dance last February when they
came in from their first action. They knew
they had the answer to the Zero Since then
they have destroyed 81 Japanese planes. Their
leading ace, First Lieutenant Kenneth A.
Walsh, alone has shot down "a since he joined
the squadron April /, only two less than the
World War II record set by Captain Joseph
Foss.
The log of Marine pilot from another
Eau squadron made history :-"April /,
1913: April Fools Day but not for US The
Japs tried daylight raid with Zeros and dive
bombers, but the bombers didn't get in, and
the Zeros got badly shot up An estimated S.
planes made the attack, of which 10 were shot
down with loss of six planes and two pilots.
Our squadron accounted for seven planes con-
hrmed and four or FIVE probables without a
loss. 1t is the first time a new squadron has
ever gone into action without any losses. The
boys think the Eau is sweet airpane"
The courage of another Marine pilot de-
manded the impossible of his wounded Cor

Allied fighters to intercept So enemy planes.

Thunderbo|ts Make Germans
Abandon Coastal Air Bases

LONDON-The Luftwaffe lines have
been pushed back along the Western Front,
according to Lieutenant Colonel Chesley G.
Peterson.
Seven months ago the job Cooked very
different than it does now," said Colonel
Peterson. Now we are on the big offensive
and we're getting the tools to do it with"
1t. Col. Peterson, who commands group
of Double Wasp-powered Army P-47 Repub-
lie Thunderbolts of the Eighth Air Force in
the big league of Western European air fght-
ing, said There were misgivings as to
whether fighter craft could penetrate as deep
as our PAYS now do and whether the bomb
ers could make deep penetrations unescorted.
We have done it and done it efficiently.
1--WE can go farther into Germany" he
asserted. "We're rapidly putting the Luft-
waite into the position where we are going to
be top dog in its own back yard"
[September II communiques reported that
Thunderbolts had escorted Fortresses all the
way to Emden-a record distance for fighter
escort-and knocked down p enemy planes
over the target. The unprecedented perform-
ance of the Thunderbolts surprised the
Germans so that returning airmen reported
only light opposition. Gerry must know the
jig is up when PATS can 60 that far" said
one pilot.
During August the Thunderbolts DESTROYED
81 enemy planes, probably destroyed IA more
and damaged IS others. But, according to 1t.
Col. Peterson, knocking down Nazi aircraft
was not as significant as the deep penetrations
over Nazi territory by P-47s.
The fact that our Thunderbolts could es-
cort the heavy bombers close to their targets
and pick them up on the return meant smaller
losses of the big plane: III the blasting of
Germany's industry and transportation.

gine horsepower goes up and up but the
SIX basic principles of engine design re-
main unaltered, Eugene L. Wilson. preSi-
dent OF United Aircraft Corporation, says.
AS a commander in the United States
Navy, and chief OF Engine Design Section
Bureau OF AeronauticS, Mr.. Wilson con-
tributed paper on alr-cooled aircraft en-
gines to the ournal OF American Society
of Naval Engineers in 1927. In it he listed
the following six fundamental require
ments for aircraft engines:
Minimum weight per horsepower
Minimum fuel consumption
3-Maximum dependability
4-Maximum durability
5-Maximum ease of maintenance
o-Mlnimum cost
In those days the 4l0 horsepower de-
veoped by the early Wasps was big To-
day the 1000 horsepower of the Double
Wasp is routine. Even bigger things are
looming up, but the same six principles
still guide the engineers of Pratt & Whit

at Fortress Europe.
This remarkable record is the result of new
tactics developed from combat experience, ac-
cordlng to the report. Instead of flying at low
levels and dropping light bombs, the new
tactics are to fly at medium altitude with
lighter escort and to drop heavy bombs.
Despite the fact that the crews are plow-
ing through heavy flax at these medium alti-
tudes, they depend upon the ruggedness
of their ships, their pursuit plane speed and
the 1000 horses of the two Pratt & whitney
Double Wasp engines to get them to their
objective and back again.

Prisoners
 

Trinidad, Colo, Oct. 2S.-(UP)- Military and civil authorities in- vestigated reports today that Ger man war prisoners have carried on romances with Japanese girls liv- ing here under the relocation pro- gram.
 The Investigation was prompted by snapshots appearing in Denver newspaper showing German pris- oner embracing and kissing a Jap- anese girl and another German standing beside. an automobile with his arm around a Japanese girl. The pictures reportedly were taken from an escaped prisoner recently when he was recaptured at Las Vegas, N. M.
 The director of the war intern inent camp said the published re- ports of the romance were greatly exaggerated" but confirmed that groups of prisoners have been work ing in the fields east of Trinidad near the homes of the Japanese families.
