Albert lathrop, 101,
Union Army Veteran,
Dies al Home Here
Lost Leg When He Was
80 Years Old While
Choppine Down Tree

Albert Milton Lathrop, Civil War
veteran, who would have been 102
years old in July, died yesterday at
his home, 1921 Euclid street NV.
Almost blind since he was 83, Mr.
Lathrop has maintained an interest
in current affairs. His daughters
here, Miss Edith Lathrop and Mrs.
Susan E. Myer, with whom he lived,
read the newspapers to him. Ar
ticles on political and war develop
ments interested him most.
A few days after he was 81, Miss
Lathrop said her father joined the
Union Army. He fought at Win
chester, SUBMITS Point, New Mar
ket, Piedmont, Lynchburg, Lexing-
ton and Buchanan. With the Fed
eral rout at Winchester, he fled on
foot to Pennsylvania.
Left Army After War.
He left the Army two months
after the war ended. Mr.. Lathrop
then married and moved to Con-
necticut, where he was a farmer and
school teacher. In 1872 he made a
pioneers trek to Nebraska, where
he lived for 54 years. He was active
in business, church and civic af-
fairs and served for many years on
the School Board In Clay County,
Nebr.
In 1881 Mr.. Lathrop attended the
Winchester Apple Blossom Festival
| md Cfnnd hnctHn tho
erected in the United States Ma
tional Cemetery to his old regiment
the 18th Connecticut Infantry. He
couldn't see the names, but he could
recall the battles In which his COM
rades had fallen.
ut was one of the greatest salts
factions of my life to stand beside
the monument, the unveiling OF
which in 1895 I was unable to at
tend" he said.
His first glimpse of Washington
was in 1919, when he came to visit
Miss Lathrop, then associate special
ist in school libraries of the Interior
Department. She is now with the
Office of Education.
Lost Leg at SO.
In July, 1941, Mr.. Lathrop went to
Sunday school at the Fourth Pres
byterian Church, where Representa-
tive Curtis, Republican, of Nebraska
spoke in his honor. Joining in his
Tooth birthday celebration reception
were former Senator Norris of Ne
braska, Mr.. Curtis and Senator But
Ter, also of Nebraska.
When he was 83, Miss Lathrop said,
tree fell on her father as he was
cutting it down, requiring an am
putation of one leg. Since then he
had an artificial leg.
Funeral services will be held at
II am. tomorrow at the Hines fu-
neral home, 29O1 Fourteenth street
NV, with the Rev. U. G. B. Pierce,
pastor of All Souls Unitarian
Church, officiating. Burial will be
in Arlington National Cemetery.
Besides his two daughters, Mr..
Lathrop is survived by son, Chel-
sea I. Lathrop Of Harvard, Nebr !;
five grandchildren and six great
grandchildren. One grandson is Pvt
Dixwell Lathrop, U. S. A., stationed
at Camp Polk, La.

Air Record
(New York Times

The American people take pride in the ac- complishments of the Army Air Forces, revealed by the report of the Office of War Information cov- ering the period from Pearl Harbor to September Of this year. The destruction of 1912 enemy planes against the loss of 1867 shows ratio in our favor of about four Obviously box scores Of this kind without breakdown into categories of planes do not tell the whole story It is not an even trade if we lose one big bomber at a cost of two enemy fighters But reports from the battlefronts which go beyond OWIs statement indicate that even ill raids which in the vulnerable position of the attacker far from base, the ratio is running ap- proximately three or four to fighters destroyed for each of our big bombers lost From military point of view this would be satisfactory ratio even if the enemy wwere able to maintain his previous rate of fighter replacement which he is not. But there objectives which are worth much less favorable exchange than this, considering the amount of damage inflicted enemy installations.
 The OWI statement does not include Navy figures or the figures such sensational successes that announced by General MacArthur recently, in which lO4 Japanese planes certainly destroyed, with forty three "probables against the loss of two American planes in the Southwest Pacific. The rate of superiority fact, quite clearly has been going up in all theatres This be attributed in part to huge pilot forces from handful of trained men and partly to the splendid qualitative char acteristics of the combat planes themselves Box scores may not be all revealing but when the odds are consistently such those shown by the OWI report and by the equally satisfactory achievements of the Naval Air Force extended period, they form solid foundation for the conviction that American planes are adequate to the job which they were built to do

 It appears the administration agencies are in bus- ness to perpetuate themselves, and using paper stocks that probably would much useful and practical purpose if diverted regular channels But they continue to up paper with reduction in usage that any one can discover, legiti mate publications told of bigger quota cuts to come. &
 Every time government agency decides to start new publication it does just that but for private citizen to establish publication would involve mountains of red tape and technicalites.
 Publication of periodicals constitutes only of the ways in which the administrative bureaus vast ing paper for nearly every one of the bureaus also has its publicity department which sends tons of useless material through the mails and seldom finds readers.
 This illustrates just more how public money is being wasted and how we live under two sets of regulatons-one applying to the average citizen and business and the other to the political drones who beat the drum ride the bandwagon and produce nothing
The Daily Alaska empire., 1943-11-08

Although there has been somewhat noticeable reduction in the amount of waste paper sent out by government agencies still is apparent that there is waste and that further reduction should be attempted because there still is vital shortage of paper
 True, paper is vital product Tremendous quantities used in making cartons and boxes which hold every conceivable type of war material. Tons of pulp also used to make smokeleSs powder, the wood product being utilized in place of cotton under improvements developed recently by our scientists
