Overparking Illegal

Wimington's population increase has Gre
ated more serious parking problem in some
residential areas than downtown where park
ing meters exercise fair control of the situ-
alton. An example of this is to be found in
the custom of many motor car owners who
participate in the share-the- ride program, and
consequently seldom drive their own autos
Of leaving them at the curb for weeks at a
time in front of homes not their own, to the
great inconvenience of the householder whose
curb they occupy
Residents thus deprived of their proper park
ing space, unable to halt their cars in front Of
their homes, hesitate to invoke police
aid. They don't want to be considered un-
neighborly and SO put up with an unnecessary
annoyance rather than be called poor sport.
They have the wrong view. The poor sport
is the owner who leaves his car indefinitely
befoe another's door. 1t is he who lacks
a proper sense of rudimentary courtesy. If he
must park his auto for any considerable time
he ought at least to move it frequently.
Perhaps the owners who over-park do not
know that they are violating the traffic or
dinance. In this case it is only fair to call
attention to the fact that a may be
parked in residential districts for maximum

Adolf Comes To Benito

Time was, when Hitler and Mussolini met
the event was heralded with sounding brass
and tinkling cymbal.
It's different now. They move to the rem
devious secretly. Even its location is con-
ceaIed. And for the first time, they meet
in Italy.
What come-down for Adolf! Heretofore
he summoned his petty partner whithersoever
he wished. Now he goes to him. Is it pos
sible that Mussolini is in the saddle and Hitler
leading the donkey? 1t could be.
But let it rest there. What seems to be
among the possibilities is that II Duce, with
his divisions all but annihilated in Sicily
Rome under fire, and his soldiers mutinous
aeainst their German officers, he told Hitler
either to come to his rescue or he'd drop out
of the war. This is the view generally held in
Allied capitals.
Another is that he asked Hitler to release
Italian troops on the Eastern front and allow
them to come home. That would be crafty
move. If he could get them out OF Russia,
and into Italy to surrender as their fellows
are doing in droves in Sicily there would
be nothing left for him but to throw in the
sponge and take off for Switzerland or maybe
Spain or Portugal and leave the little king
to make what he could out of what was left
of the land he ruined
But let that rest too Hitler and Mussolini
got together somewhere in northern Italy
and Hitler probably chewed up and spat out
a throw rug or two and Benito grovelled,
and now they've both gone home and the
Axis radio warns the United Nations that
something is cooking that will dumbfound
them.
Three years ago such meeting would have
had vast potentialties. We might have ex-
pected another sweep of Hitlers juggernaut
Now it is notable for its insignificance. The
juggernaut is mired down. The Russians are
beating the stuffing out of Hitler in Russia
Italy is on its last war legs. All the two
dctators can do is curse each other. We let
it stand at that.

Our Chief Aim
TO aid in every way the prosecu-
tion of the war to complete Vic
tory.
THOUGHT FOR TODAY

Grandpa Joseph Martin, II, of Kansas
City, Mo- was eager to know what had
happened to his grandson, L. w. James
Jr, in England. He sought this informa-
ton from all the federal cabinet officers
at home, and from our ambassador in
London but failed to receive it. So, Grand
pa figured it was time to take direct &C
ton. He took tighter grip on his pen, and
wrote and asked Queen Elizabeth. Back
came letter on Buckingham palace
stationery; "The lady in waiting is COM
manded by the queen to let Mr.. Martin
know that Mr.. Luther James with RAF
ground forces) is well and safe'', it said.
James London address was listed and the
queen hoped that letters would get through
in the future. She sent good wishes to
Mrs. Martin too Grandpa is deeply thank
full that he took "drect action" in this
matter.

Pick Up The Slack

With the United Nations making substantial
gains on the Russian front, in Sicily and in
the Pacific, there is some grounds for the
wave of cheerfuness which is now sweeping
this country There is no reason to doubt that
the Axis is in for crushing defeat in every
battle area. But those among us who fore
cast collapse Of our enemy in any war zone
or foresee quick victory and on the strength
OF their belief are willing to lessen their ef-
forts are only too likely to postpone the VIC
tory or even TO pave the way for Allied defeat
We are justified in being hopeful. We GER

tainly are not justified in being over-optinis-
tic. Whatever success has fallen to our lot
thus far is not to be safely mistaken Tor the

paiens. lie ahead than any that have passed
or are now in progress. The actual crisis Of
the war has not passed. 1t is still to be faced.
This is why the let-down in war production
during May and June is serious and why
Donald Nelson, chairman of the War Pro-
duction Board, calls for a Staggering in
crease during the balance of 1943. The time
has not come to ease off. In fact that time
may be far distant. 1t cannot arrive until
the Germans are on their knees and their
leaders disposed of, as they deserve, at the
end of a rope. 1t cannot come until the
japanese are completely knocked out 1t can
not come until a peace, based on justice and
right has been created and a world police
force set up to enforce its terms.
These things cannot happen quickly. The
Navy may be planning too far ahead when
it plans for combat until through 1949
But no one can say in advance that it is
not correct. 1t remains for us, therefore, to
give our best effort to the job of production
without cessation until the Axis is wiped off
the face of the earth.

C-2 Ships Now

With II Of the 1876 Liberty ships under
contract to the North Carolina Shipbuilding
Company launched, the firm turns with it's
customary efficiency to the building Of ships
of new design, the CO type, with the first
keel already laid as work speeds up on the
nine Liberties still TO be completed.
1t is hard for Wilmingtonians who have fol-
lowed the production of the shipyard and seen
Iaunchings multiplied as if by a miracle to
remember tnat three years ago the site where
it has all taken place was a cypress swamp
But that is the way Americans have always
met their emergencies. 1t was necessary to
build bridge of ships across the Atlantic
If the enemy was ever to be defeated. And
it was intolerable to think that the enemy
could not be beaten. He had to be- if civiliza-
ton was to survive.
When the call for more ships came, the
North Carolina firm was organized, and since
the first cypress was cut the first morass
filled, the first way completed, it's record has
been outstanding. Now it has new lob.
and is at it before the other is completed.
These CO ships are speedier, larger than the
liberties. To get them underway it is nee
oesary to make many changes at the yard
These changes are still incomplete, but enough
have been made to get one keel laid and
the rest will be finished by the time the
Liberty ship contract is filled
It is no wonder that the yard and its work.

"McSorleys Wonderful Saloon"

Joseph Mitchell is another boy
from the University of North Car

he was one of Proff Koch's Play
makers-a lot of boys who inves-
tlgated the drama under K c h
seem to have gone on to important
positions in life or letters. Ger
tainly he has learned the funda-
mental Koch precept, even though
somebody else taught it to him.
This is that man should write
about the things he knows.
Mr.. Mitchell is a reporter. He
reports for the New Yorker as a
rule, with extraordinary success.
But ne has defeated even the New
Yorker, for almost alone among
the boys who work for that healthy
weekly, Mr.. Mitchell has abstain
ed from slavishly following t h e
New Yorker pattern. His pieces
are good, straight, and painstak-

new Yorker eye for the curious

1t to trail off inconclusively.

tering about each other that I
found year or so ago in some
other parts of the world. Here,
as in England, the Allied forces
are one and nowhere is that more
easily seen than in the air.
This makes campaign such as
the one in Sicily more deadly as
il works up to a crescendo. The
activity is more intense even than
in the days just preceding the in
vasion. At tne air field 1 saw
American fighters take off while
the preceding mission was still
out. Fighters just in were quickly
interrogated and some of them
called out at once for briefing
for the next trip.
This field has been running mis-
sions every rour on the hour. Dur.
ing the last six days 600 sorties
were carried out from this field,
a sortie being the trip of one plane
over enemy territory. Out of the
900 plane trips only six planes
were lost. And that is only one
field. There are dozens of others
from which the Americans a n d
British blast hourly at Sicily.
Those Berlin specialists in air
warfare must be studying tn S
show in Sicily with worried broWs.
They must know we are lust
warming up on this one end.

Horse Patrol Day Rooms

In order to get the records clear and remove
the impression held by some that the Red
Cross Camp and Hospital Council is concen-
trating it's efforts chiefly upon day rooms for
soldiers at Camp Davis, it is to be understood
that armed units of all types are to share
the benefits of the campaign and that among
those to receive especial attention are the
horse patrol guarding the beaches.
These units have been sadly neglected. They
are housed in abandoned CCC huts and are
provided with the barest necessities. A par
tition separates the kitchen from the front
part of the hut where two-decker hunks occupy
much of the space. Because they are always
on the alert, the men may not even have
radios, lest they interfere with signals. When
they come in from patrol they must crowd
into the little space available with little more
to do than twiddle their thumbs.
So far as recreation is concerned they might
as well be a desert isle. There are no
games, no card tables, no interesting books,
no convenences for letter writing.
Considering that these patrolmen are re-
sponsible for our safety from saboteurs sneak
ing ashore from submarines and other enemy
acts the least we can do for them is to
make the huts they live in as homelike as
possible.

NORTH AFRICA. By Wireless)
l happen to be seeing more OF
the American air force than OF
the Raj which is the reason
have been writing almost entirely
obout the American part in the
spectacular air history being made
in Sicily. But the British part is
enormous as it has been in the
air war over Germany-indeed, as
it has been beginning with the
battle of Britain which was one
of the decisive battles of the world.
The British h have remarkable
planes and what is more they risk
them with bold persistence as the
losses in bombing over Germany
indicates. The British gathered
large numbers of the little Spit.
fires at Malta to play their part
in forming the air cover for the
invasion of Sicily.
Br tish bonbers doing h avy
night work in Sicily are carrying
on around the clock pounding
which the American planes are
giving Sicily in daylight hours.
The fact that we are now oper-
ating fighters from fields in Sicily
marks the beginning of the end
of the campaign. The Axis is com
PEELED to withdraw fighters. We
will continue to push our fighter
cover onward and that will be the
key to further Allied advances. A
fighter cover is necessary if we
are to protect our troops from
merciless slaughter. Swarms Of
the British Spitfires are most es-
sential in that.
America has developed several
notable air planes and for the spe-
cial purposes intended n h n
equals the Flying Fortress, n e
Lightning P-38 which probably is
the most versatile plane in the
air, ana the A-36 light fighter
tomber which has developed g
deadly dive bombing ability. Yet
et the two extremes, IN tne Hgn1
Spitfire and in the heavy box car
bomber like the Lancaster, t h
British have no equals.
The two air forces make well
rounded team Moreover the two
forces are pulling together as a
team. The working association
which existed in England between
Air Marshall Harris and General
Eaker is found here also between
Air Marshall Tedder and General
