make the self-same bids South did.
North should have taken several
factors into account. First. he
himself had made 1t clear to South
that he held q six-four division be-
tween his own suits, by bidding
spades twice before he showed
the diamonds. In spite Of South's
having been told that, he had not
raised either OF North's suits. nor
had he shown the kind Of protec-
ton needed for a No Trump game
by calling that declaration. Nor
had South made anything but q
minimum call each time. In fact.
in bidding 3-Hearts over the s.
Diamonds. he had been economic
ing by not rebidding the clubs in
stead. which would have required
4-Clubs.
Going to a mere 4-Hsarts over
South's last bid would have been
perfectly sound. with North's good
hand. but the jump to slam was
Just not excusable. II, Of course,

The Treasury Department has
called upon the newspapers of the
United States, both dailies and
Weeklies, to run advertising spon-
sored by local business and pro-
fessional men promoting the Third
War Loan. The government has
no fund for advertising the Third
War Loan and is depending alto
gether upon sponsored publicity.
Many newspapers are running this
advertising at one-half their regu-
lar rates, that is, for every dollar
local business and professional
men put up for advertising the
paper puts up a dollar. By this
means the paper does not profit
from thea advertising, business
men, newspapers and individuals
alike share in the promotion of
the necessary publicity for the.
loan. The Treasury freely admits
that it was this type of publicity
that put over the Second Loan
and is basing its hopes for success
on similar successful campaign
by the same means for the Third
War drive this month. :

SCOUT SPEAKS


A returning soldier, wounded
Marine, tells his story of how he
saved his outfit on Guadalcanal
from what would have been dis
aster, if his presence of mind and
early training had not equipped
him for the situation. We have
before this praised the training
received by our Boy Scouts, of
how they build character and
teach many branches to our boys.
This boy became a man and car
ried with him to mans war his
remembrance of signaling that he
learned as a Boy Scout. His plat
DON became separated from an
other and no signal man was with
this group and the japs "were all
over the place." He offered his
knowledge and taking two bay
onets and tying handkerchiefs on
them for semaphore flags, he sent
his message successfully. This
former Boy Scout was decorated
for extraordinary heroism with
our Navy Cross. Again, Kenne-
wick salutes and thanks the Boy
Scout organization.

Congratulations to the Legion!
They have ordered a new set OF
street flags which are expected to
arrive before the present bond
drive has been completed. They
have purchased enough flags and
stats so that two can be set be-
tween each set of ornamental
street lights, making for uni
formity along the street without
regard as to which business house
must have a flag before his door.
Suitable coverings have also been
ordered, so that the flags will be
kept cleaner in storage. This is
fine. It's the way the whole thing
should have been arranged. How
ever, at the time the idea was
started, the present system was
about the only feasible one ana
the flags certainly have served
their purpose. They've been in
use for 10 or Is years. We've well
gotten our moneys worth from
them. .--.. 49,.

JUST IMAGINE

O04 1IN<A144NG - - FL - ~
To substitute eggs, soybeans and
peanuts for leg of lamb and T.
bone steaks, to use bicycles in
stead of gasoline, leg makeup for
stockings, is not too much for
us to take. It is agreeable to Ken
newick that women substitute for
men in branches of the service
that makes man free to fight,
train women to work in factories
which is necessary in order to
release men for fighting. BUT
when the put a woman in the po-
sition of umpire and call her a
WUMP, we raise our hands in hor-
ror of things that might lie ahead
if we don't get this war business
over pretty soon. If nothing else
will spur our boys on. to victory
it might be the thought of women
back home taking over the base
ball diamond in its entirety.
Think of it, throwing a pop bottle
at a 1ady! Imagine yelling "kiu
the umpire Cor WUMP)" and not
feeling like a cad afterwards when
our emotions die down! This is
a change brought on by war that
is almost too hot to handle.

The preparation for the post
war world isn't a matter that
should be limited to world leaders.
It is matter in which every state,
county, local community and even
individual is concerned. Every
individual should stop and think
that he too is going to be affected
after the war ends and that it is
up to him to begin to do something
about it now. To fail to make
some preparation for this occasion
would be short sighted indeed.
One Of the best ways in which
the individual can protect HIM
self is through the purchse of War
Bonds. Nothing will provide a
better cushion pending the return
of the country to normal than a
cash reserve put away in safe
place.

All over the country young peo-
pie are filling in as clerks in the
stores to take the places Of older
persons absent in the service or
in war work. Many of these young
boys and girls are developing into
splendid clerks and sales people.
There are number in the local
stores. For the most part they
are bright, alert and accommo-
dating. AS is to be expected,
there are few who are outstand-
ing. They know the merchandise
they have to sell, where to find
it and the price. It is pleasure
to be served by these eager, cour-
teous young people. Their avid
interest in their work and their
eagerness to serve makes trading
with them a pleasure.

This paper breaches the trade at
home doctrine, not because it
benefits the home merchant, tho
incidentally it does do this. We
urge trading at home because of
what it means to this community
and to every home owner in it.
Those of us who have our invest
ments here and own our homes
and businesses or are dependent
upon some local institution for
our employment know that these
are all benefited when the needs
of the community are bought at
home The merchant who pros
pers spends more money to stock
his store, he builds better store
building, a better home. This adds
to the wealth of the community,
and, incidentally to every resi-
dent of the community who owns
property or pays taxes. II one
has any doubt about this he can
prove it by picturing the reverse.
Suppose, for example, the stores
run down in stock, the buildings
become dilapidated and the mer-
chants all finally one by one quit
and move away. Who has suf-
fered? The merchants only? Ger
tainly not. Everyone in the COM
munity has suffered. Their in
vestments have suffered and the
town is less desirable place in
which to live. Building a good
town and keeping it good town
is the responsibility of everyone
in the town. In the measure that
this responsibility is met the town
prospers and becomes better, and
in the measure the responsibility
is not met the town suffers and
runs down. Let's all think Of it
in this light and work for the
building up of our town.

Important Notice to e
Growers of Potatoes

The War Food Administration
has announced a loan program for
Irish potatoes the purpose OF
which is to insure growers of re-
turns in accordance with the sup
port prices announced prior to
planting time and to assure the
orderly distribution of this years
record crop.
Loans will be based on the sup
port prices announced for each
producing area last spring. Crow
ers and cooperative associations
will be eligible for loans on pota-
toes in approved warehouses at
the local support price for the fall
months less 35 cents per hundred
pounds to cover the costs of grad
ing, sacking and loading on board
cars. The loans will be on field
run potatoes at rates adjusted for
the percentage of U. S. No. quail
ity potatoes in the lot. To cover
storage costs and losses, the sup
port prices will be increased above
the fall rates by 20 cents per hun
dred pounds on December and
by an additional 10 cents per
hundred pounds on January 1. It
will be noted that the loan prices
at the present time are based on
No. l potatoes only.
Dealers and shippers who buy
from growers at the support prices
during the fall and winter months
will be given non-recourse loans
based on the support prices. All
loans will be callable in whole or
in part on demand and a sufficient
volume will be called from time
to time to ensure the movement

The program is designed to as

tatoes throughout the year by
avoiding too rapid ABSORPTION of

In the arrangement of things
after the war we think it would
be good plan to put Japan under
China. China should be able to
keep close enough watch to see
that the Nips never again become
obsessed with the idea of Far East
domination. China would prove
a safe watch dog. She has no
territorial ambitions and will not
soon forget the injustices she has
suffered from Japan.

since Pearl Harbor. Certainly not
the aging Secretary of State Hull or
Secretary of War Stimson. There is
no criticism against the personal eff
forts of either, but neither have they
emerged as heroes. Secretary of La
Dor Perkins has watched most of
her peacetime powers pass to others.
Manpower Commissioner Paul ".
McNutt has been under fire con-
stantly, as has Commerce Secretary
Jesse Jones.
The list could go on and on. One
possible exception at the moment is
Stabilizer James F. Byrnes, but the
second president for all his in
fluence. will probably continue to
act more behind the scenes. That
doesn't make for glory.
If there are going to be any Her
bert Hoovers and Bernard M. Ba-
ruchs in this war, they're a long
time coming to the front.
What's the reason? I have asked
a dozen old-timers who saw the last
war through here. Most often their
answers fall into two groups:
% Having watched the verbal
punishment that the Hendersons,
GinSburgs, the Thurman ArnoldS,
the William Jeffers, the McNutts
and others have taken, many COM
petent industrialists have preferred
to ignore the call to Washington.
CD President Roosevelt's inclina-
ton to keep in office those who have
been loyal through the years has
virtually frozen" most key wartime
jobs.

emerged as hero Of World War
