Continue To Save Scrap

The special waste paper campaign drew to
quota collected. Setting out to gather $50, 900
pounds, the salvage committees tabulations
shows 325, PSI pounds in hand when the final
count was taken
AS usual Wilmington did better than ex-
pected when the goal was fixed. This has
been the citys record since the first war
time drive was conducted. 1t may be accept
ed as the citys gauge in all campaigns stem
ming from wartime needs.
But the people Of the city should under
stand that while the intensive drive for waste
paper has been concluded, the need for it
continues, and will continue until the world
returns to normally.
Without further publicity and encourage.
ment they should still hoard all kinds Of waste
paper and see that at regular intervals of
time it is added to the nations all too small
stockpile. If it is impossible for them to deliver
it to the Brigade Boys Club or a junk yard
phone call to the Brigade will bring a col
lector
Paper thus gathered is reprocessed for use
as containers for ammunition, military ra-
tons and other war supplies II the require
ments are not met interruption of essential
shipments to war fronts is inevitable
Surely no further word on the importance
Of saving waste paper is needed Let no
scrap escape.

Government Cooperation

While Washington dispatches emphasize the
fact that the Attorney Generals Office has
been instructed merely to draw the necessary
documents for government seizure OF the rail-
roads, 1t is apparent that the administration
either has little hope Of settlement before
December 80, the day set for a strike, or is
putting up tremendous bluff
OF the two explanations, the former seems
most plausible. There has been little reason,
from the start Of the conferences Mr.. Roose.
welt has been holding with brotherhood lead
ers, to think that any settlement short of
agreement with their demand would be ac-
ceptable to them; and now that three of the
brotherhoods have declared they will not
agree to arbitration by the President there is
less reason than ever
Obviously the recalcitrant brotherhoods be-
heve that Mr.. Roosevelt, as arbtor, would
deal with their case on the basis Of the little
steel formula, which would fall short of their
expectations, and are probably correct in so
believing. Mr.. Roosevelt is chief advocate
for the little steel formula as means, how
ever Intellectual, OF combating initiation.
1t is reasonably safe, then, to foresee gov
eminent seizure and operation of the nation
railways, starting on December 80, if in the
meantime all brotherhoods and incorporating
employees fail to accept President Roosevelts
offer to serve as arbitor.
The prospect is not reassuring. The govern
ment is not in the railroad business, nor can
it learn the business overnight When it last
tried to run the lines the experiment was a
dismal and costly failure.
There might be greater success now if a
competent railroad man were chosen to head
the special bureau that must be created, in
stead Of politician or lawyer or profess
sor, or even a crystal gazer. 1t is to be
hoped, if government operation becomes an
actually, that man trained for and skilled
in running railroads will be selected for the
job

Why A Slogan, Anyway?

President Roosevelt is little late in wish

masses Of the American people dropped new

Even when President Roosevelts admins

papers started calling the ''new deap' the
raw DEAL" which was going perhaps too far
and stemmed from Randolph Hearsts disap-
pointrnent as being out of the orchard when
plums were falling.
But it is also true that even then, when the
NRA, which led off the assault of alphabetical
monstrosities, was new, the new deal' was
losing public confidence and but for the dis
turbed conditions created by the approach of
war its existence probably would have been
ended quickly. 1t has survived only, we NAV

A Reasonable Request

Much thought is being given to the problem
OF providing Unemployment for men return
ing from military service. So far as possible,
old jobs are being kept available. But this
does not apply to one group in the service
whose jobs were the result of years of train
ing and Individual effort.
When a doctor goes to war his job cannot
be preserved for him. His patients must go
elsewhere. When he returns, he must find
new patients, a slow, tedious task that will
not be made any easier by the fact that tens
OF thousands Of other doctors released from
the armed forces will be doing the same
thing.
However, the doctors are not kicking. All

Soft, Swirling SnowfIakes

The National War Labor Board has decided
that snowstorm is Caprice of Nature This
decision, written by Wayne L. Morse, pub
lie member, shows imagination by avoiding
the more customary EXPRESSION IAN act of
God"
The decision holds that when such Caprice
OF Nature creates an emergency in which saw
mill workers have to shovel snow in order
to get to their machines, they must be paid
their regular skilled labor rates if they are
able to complete the shoveling in less than a
day, but may be employed at common labor
ers' wages if they shovel more than one day.
We can't decide whether to enjoy most the

logic, or the Introduction which some owl

Voluntary Retirement

This is a tWice-tod tale. It happened once
before, SO long ago that we can not remem-
Der the agency concerned. Another govern
naent agency actually is going out OF business
of its own volition, releasing its personnel,
closing it's offices, ceasing to exist with the
fnality of private corporation whose work
Is completed.
The agency concerned is the Steel Recov-
srN Corporation. There was time when it
had $40 employees. 1t was expected. that it
might expend as much as $500, 10000. Now
its doors are closed, as of Dec. 81. and it has
spent only about So, 100000.

Christmas

Christmas, 1913, finds us deafened by the
roar of cannon. the zoom of warplanes, the
cries of Observation-Disclosures of mans inhu-
manity to man.
Some day the war will end; when is known
only to God But is is true: when it does
cease we will have to reappraise human
values.
We will have seen ana survived the assault
on civilization, and material possessions in
many lands swept away by the forces Of evil.
What will remain are the imperishables -
things of the spirit.
We will need these things as never before.
Chief among them are faith, courage, hope.
We will need them to bind up the wounds,
repair the ravages of war
We will need them to replace with love the
hatreds bred of war.
We will need them to make us realize the
essential oneness Of humanity.
Unless we have them we will fail the gen.
eratons to come.
These things of the spirit are not to be
purchased in the marts of trade. Money can
not buy them. Yet price must be paid
That price consists of kneeling at the crib
side of an infant. 1t involves the abandon ent
Of pride-the discovery of the virtue of hui
nility and discerning the emptiness of imam
values, the nothingness of human plaudits.
The powerful and the great will be making
merry at the fashionable inn. The humble and
contrite Of spirit will be at the stable. Those
at the inn will be in the company of Herod,
shoWering him with nattery to win his favor
Those in the stable will be in company with
lowly shepherds, paying homage to an infant
too busy to court the patronage Of Caesar
and with wise men guided by star, moi

Caesar and Herod are no more. The splen
dor they created is gone. Their thrones arr

The infant in the manger - the Prince O.
Peace-still rules. The faith, the courage. the
hope he brought will triumph even in thi,

WASHINGTON, May 28. / The Big Red House on R Street" could conceivably take its place along side the "The Little Green House on K Street" of the Harding ad- ministration, the Kate c a s e House" of Reconstruction days, and several other famous domiciles in Washington lobby history, but I doubt it.
 Whether John P. Monroe and Mrs. Eula Smith, host and hostess of the R Street Mansion" parties, have violated the proprieties of Washington hospitality is some thing that may or may not be dis closed by further investigations of the House Military Affairs commit tee.
 Unbiased observers here don't consider the Red House" mystery much of a mystery or even very important.
 What is important, they say, is that all the furore raised about lit has once again put the spotlight on the activities of so-called lobby ists, Washington agents, business representatives and commission men.
 A couple of years ago, when na- honal defense was swinging into high, I went to bedrock to get the story of the importance of Wash ington business representatives. went to Treasury procurement which, in those days, was letting most of the government contracts I found that their importance was about that of a good office boy They placed before the proper of ficials, and it's no trick to find out who they are, the qualifications of their respective firms. Notices of requests for bids were then sent tc the agents or directly to the firms and contracts let on a basis oi those bids.

 But don't let it tell on you. Poor sleep furrowed foreheads, tense mouths, skin prematurely dry and wrinkled from a bad case of war nerves can make you old before your time. Be on the alert for them as the beauty saboteurs they are. Give more thought to facial man. nerisms, daily habits and posture.

Garrison Turner, landscape gard- ener who made the grounds around the Pioneers Home in Sitka a garden show-place, is in Juneau working on the landscaping of the Governors House grounds.
 To join his wife in San Anselmo, Calf, MT. Turner plans to leave for the south about June 10, but he is hopeful that conditions will be such when the war is won that he can return to Alaska and en- gage in his profession. His home in California will be 482 Upper Scenic Drive, San Anselmo, where he will be available to assist in making any garden plans for AL askans in the future.
 Difficulty of securing the neces- sary shipments of fertilizer and other garden supplies, lack of labor to assist him in his work, have made MT. Turner's move necessary he says.
