Spray Guns Are Good
For Extinguishing Fires

BY using orchard spray guns OF
potato sprayers for fire fighting
equipment, many small fires in rural
communities may now be put out In
less than a minute, it is reported.
Set the nozzle of the gun for a
fog-mist spray, since the fine mist
absorbs the heat and acts like wet
blanket to smother the flames.
Steam spreads over the fire and
puts it out even before the water
comes into contact with the flames.
Advantages of using power spray
ers, or even knapsack sprayers, as
fire-fghting equipment are their ac-
feasibility, ease of operation, eff
cheney, and economy. Only about
eight gallons of water per minute
are used by the gun. If all Of the
power sprayers in the country
were put to this new use in an
emergency, much rural fire loss
could be prevented, it is believed.
Although the sprayer may be used
for any fire, it is of particular ad-
vantage in a hot hay NOV where the
fog will extinguish the fire without
wetting down the total NOV and
damaging the entire hay crop.
To prevent freezing in cold wealth
er, an 18 per cent solution of calcium
chloride may be used in the tank
water.

NATIONAL DISGRACE

The outstanding facts In the dis
graceful coal situation are (D that
government agencies and government
officials who had the sole power OF
deciding wage and hour problems In
the coal mines, utterly failed to con-
troll four strikes; CD that the coal
miners callously disregarded union
pledges Of no strikes during the war
emergency; CD that the principal
sufferers from governmental regula-
tory inefficiency and union member
ship disregard of no-strike agree
ments are our armed forces and the
people at home.
What spectacle our nation pre-
sents to our enemies as we'll as our
allies, when the government has to
threaten to use the Army to perpetu-
ate coal production. No excuse can be
offered for the stoppage OF work IN
the coal mines, which will renew the
respect of the public for the men
responsible for this type Of sabotage
in wartime
In the words of Paul Mallon, 1.-THE
condition must be accepted as AN eye
opening example of the deficiencies
of managed economy, the inefficien-
cy of bureaucracy, and the difficulties
presented by a revolutionary union
movment against sympathetic gov
ernment during desperate war to
protect the bargaining for freedom Of
Iohov and Tho indiVidnal ~
There is something wrong with the
thinking of any man on the home
front who enjoys all the blessings
of personal liberty, and then strikes
in wartime instead of staying on his
job and backing the men on the war
front who risk their lives to preserve
the liberty he enjoys.

GREAT EXPECTATIONS

Electing President might be lik-
ened to choosing a cook. In the lat
ter case one looks for efficiency and
the ability to work without being
wasteful, and then all one asks is the
opportunity to stay out of the kitchen
and put ones mind on ones own
work.
So, too, with the United States
citizens selecting q President. They
want an outstandingly fine perform
er, and then they want TO get on
with their duties, trusting him to
handle his work we'll. Most citizens
during this war period can see no
point to devoting days to hearing
various applicants not only state
their qualifications but vilify the rest
of the candidates for high office.
AS matter of fact 1t does not
make any difference whether cook
Is tall or short, II she can bake good
biscuits. 1t does not matter to n
great many people whether Presi-
dent Is Democrat or Republican,
II he has high principles. A parallel
can be drawn also as regards the cap
abilities Of either to accomplish lot
with least possible expenditure. 1t Is
desirable that the cook be thoroughly
skilled In her art, and this will have
an effect on the well-being OF the
whole household, but 1t is not expect
ed that she superintend intimate and
personal family matters.
The citizens are well-equippe d
with intelligence and good old-fash
ioned gumption, and, after facts re-
garding the various applicants have
been presented and the reports re-
viewed, these citizens are capable OF
making decisions without help and
without persistent coaxing. An d
while they enjoy little palaver in
normal, leisurely decades, right now
the majority want to turn their chief
attention to their own war duties and
resent being halted to listen to ha-
rangues and politics played cres-
cendo Impaitence thus arou d
might prove boomerang to boast
full applicants, chopping their chances
to pieces.
One widely-read columnist has
said, since the Rpublican boom of
early November, that the secret
strength of the American democratic
society is that the difference between
the two parties on great issues tends
to diminish as election time draws
near and the contest narrows down
to mere men. There are good points
about one fine man as we'll as anoth-
er. And, in truth, an easy transition
from one party to the other is to be
prayed for at any time and certain
ly today when all the people, not any
one party, rightly are more concern
ed with winning the war than with
anything else. That comes first In
importance, then postwar planning,
and then it will be interesting to re-
lax and see how the one placed in
the White House is getting along
personally and what he has for
breakfast and whether everything is
spotless.

SIMPLIFIED GASOLINE
DArTnNINn

A simpliflcation Of the gasoline
rationing program, effective Decem-
ber 1, is announced by Leo H. Nc
Cormick, State OPA Director. Begin
ming the first of December, Mr.. Nc
Cormick said, all "B" and &c" books
issued by local War Price and Ra-
tioning Boards will contain fewer
coupos than in the past, but each
coupon will be good for more gal
Ions. There will be no icrease in the
amount of gasoline allowed however
All "B" and &c" coupons issued
throughout the country on and after
December 1, will be worth five gal
Ions each, as compared with the pres
ent value of two gallons for coupons
Of those types. The new supplement
tai gasoline ration coupons of five
gallons value will be issued with the
designation-"B-2" and &C." on
their face. AS present "B" and &C.
and "B-1" coupons run out, they
will be replacd by the new higher
unit-value coupons. Meanwhile out
standing coupons issued before De-
cember l will continue to be worth
only two gallons.
While the change does not mean
more gasoline for holders of supple
mental ration books, Mr. Mccormick
said it does mean that they will re-
ceive their rations in more conven-
lent form. 1t is expected, he added,
that many car owners will now buy
in five gallon units as they custom
arily did before rationing began.
Consumers will have fewer coupons
to endorse.
