where will they striker" Now
the Axis powers are wondering
"where will they strike u.s."
Results of the African sue
cess cannot be fully measured
for some time. The greatest
advantage (other than the
driving of all Axis power into
Europe) lies in the opening up
of the Mediterranean. Dis
tances to Russia, and all points
in the Near East will be re-
duced by thousands of miles.
This will be reflected in addi-
tional tonnage which will be
equivalent to launching millions
of tons Of new ships. Time also
will be a factor. The "soft
underbelly of Europe" will be
threatened as never before.
Italy, especially is opened to
attack. Approaches to the Bal
kans are opened again. Lnvas-
ion of the islands of Sicily,
Sardinia and Crete are in the
immediate limelight. The sum-
mer months hold great posi-
bilities for the much-talked-of
European invasion.

Commissioners OK
Raise For Police,
Under New Powers
Also Approve Use Of
School Buses To Aid War
Effort, Fire Control Center
For Civilian Defense

The Board of County Commits
sioners this week approved sal
airy increase for all police Off
GERS regularly appointed on the
permanent roll, under the terms
of House Bill No. 405, passed at
the recent session of the Legis-
lature. The Commissioners order
provides that all permanent
members of the Montgomery
County police force be paid the
maximum salary authorized in
Section 1872 of House Bill No.
405, and that such salary shall
be paid as Of the effective date
named in the bill, as of January
1, 1913, according to each Off
GERS rank and grade.
1t was also ordered by the
Commissioners that the emer-
gency policemen appointed under
Chapter 251 of the Acts of the
General Assembly Of 1941 be paid
an additional $25 per month for
each officer as Of January 1,
1913, and that al emergency pol
icemen appointed subsequent to
January 1, 1913, shall receive the
additional pay Of $25 per month
in addition to their regular sal
aries effective as Of the date Of
their appointment. These in
creases are to continue in effect
until further order Of the Com
lnissioners. .,.
At the request Of w. C. De-
Groot, Emergency Transportation
Officer, the Commissioners au-
thorized use of school buses for
the benefit of the citizens of
Montgomery county to aid the
war effort, and for any other
emergency use to promote the
general welfare and benefit Of the
county.
Installation of a separate fire
control center for Montgomery
county Civilian Defense was au-
thorized by the Commissioners.
This fire control center will be
separate from the Defense Corps
Control Center, but will be con-
nected by tie lines. Under the
new arrangements the chief Of
the auxiliary fire service will be
at the fire control center and
deputy will take his place at the
county control center. The coun-
ty fire departments may also use
the fire control board in non
civilian defense work as we'll, ac-
cording to Judge Albert E. Brault,
county civilian defense director.
Under the present plan the in
stallation will cost $40 per month
instead Of the $4,000 which
full fire control station would
cost to install.
The Commissioners received
number of complaints from resi-
dents Of the county, protesting
the compulsory administration Of
diphtheria anti-toxin to school
children, after the Board passed
an ordinance making this COM
pulsory. The Commissioners di-
rected the Clerk to the Board to
forward copies Of the complaints
to Doctors Broome and Ellicott,
requesting them TO submit or
express their views in this mat
ter.

into trouble with Uncle Sam.
However, in fairness to Mr..
Lewis and despite the universal
condemnation heaped upon his
brow all of the blame should not
be placed on him. True, he
practically ordered a walkout
but the little grievances lead
ing up to the climax were many
and beyond his control. He has
succeeded in placing the miners
problems clearly before the
American public and has focused
public attention on the compli-
Gated policy under which Wash
iAgton has been struggling
with the many labor problems
arising as a result of the war
effort.
Not since 1918 have the
American people been as thrilled
by news from the armed forces
as from the Tunisia battle this
week. United States forces
were assigned an important
part in the Tunisian campaign
and they delivered all that was
hoped for-plus.
