Spread on Your Bread.
One of Mr.. Wickard's main prob
lens is to get us something to spread
on our bread. We will have plenty
Of bread. Wheat's in surplus. Re-
member about Germany choosing
guns instead Of butter? Why all
this talk about butter? Because but
ter Is what you miss. Ask anyone
who has gone on a Hollywood IA
day reducing diet.
And don't worry about your dis
like of substitutes when there will
not be enough butter for you. We
haven't the edible oils to replace all
the butter with margarine. That's
the problem. Glycerine for explo-
sives comes from the same oils.
There's little more cocoanut OF. from
the Pacific. New Zealand is laden
with butter. And Australia with
mutton. But the United Nations
have lost many ships to the sub
marine. Britain is being fed largely
by 40 round trips to New York
instead Of 120 day round trips tc
Australia.
We need more hogs and soybeans
and peanuts. Cotton seed Is our
biggest oil crop. But we have too
much cotton and we can get much
more oil out of the same land with
peanuts. Mr.. Wickard's main prob
lem now is to get conversion. Last
years crops approached capacity
but much too much of it was in the
surplus Of crops-wheat and short
staple cotton.
Two Ws are credited with the 1912
bumper crops, Mr. Wickard and the
weather. He would have been a
good market operator had he not
been called to play a more impor-
tant role. He called for more hog
production in 1910, and many of
the departments economists, think.

said he was crazy. The British have
had little more to spread on their
bread as result.

years ago December, 19lO, on the
Somme. near Peronne, in France.
Pvt. Wacker was former Dart
mouth College varsity pitcher who
enjoyed a brief trial with the New
York Giants. He volunteered quick
lv on the outbreak of war and soon
became a sergeant in the 11th Engi-
neers. Stout fella, Henry.
But the Cambria show that started
November 20, 1917-the first time
tanks were used on large scale in
modern warfare-cast Henry down.
He went AWOL from Company A to
take temporary lodgings in one Of
the British tanks as it rumbled into
Jerry territory. When the tank was
knocked out, he strayed off to join
the Irish Guards in Bourbon Wood,
which was a very hot spot at the
time. When he was finally chased
back to his own company he found
that he had been reduced to the
rank of private for this unauthorized
venture into hotly disputed territory.

What book this ready reader trad
ed to Pvt. Wacker escapes memory,
but the one received in return-still
a treasured volume-was Thoreau's

years, that Thoreau spent in a cabin

Wacker always did like adventure in
the open or life in the woods.
There were long blacked-out
nights over there when a fellow
could do a real stretch of reading

Henry had marked some of his IA

markings were added when wal

FORCE IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC
Jan. 13.-Brig. Gen. Laverne G.
Saunders, who led six bombing raids
on Japanese ships and bases in the
Solomon Islands and met fighte,
opposition in each raid, believes q
day and night shelling he under
went at Guadalcanal was the worst
experience he had in more than
five months in that area.
Il wouldn't want to. 20 through
another night likes that" said +he
former West Point athlete, who has
just come out of the Solomons fo,
the first time since he entered that
battle area in July and who yester.
day was wearing for the first time
the star Of brigadier general.
I'VE had just returned from raid.
Ing Buka (on the northern tin Of
Bougainville Island where we hit
two Jap transports. Coming over
Guadalcanal we saw our own de.
stroyers firing their anti-aircraf,
guns.
II was afraid they might be mis-.
takenly shooting at us. Then 1 saw
80 Jap bombers overhead. They
dropped a string of bombs but
missed the Guadalcanal landing
strip, so we landed and they left
This was about 1890 pm.
Bombed All Night.
1--WE thought that would be all TO,
the day, but the Japs came over
again. We dove into a bomber
crater which was covered by a few
palm tree trunks. The trunks
seemed to be too widely spaced, SC
we pulled them closer together The
raiders succeeded in damaging the
field runway.
Then, wham! At 6 pm. old Mil
limeter Mike "a Jap 75-mm. fielo
gum started shelling the field and
everybody hit the foxholes again
They dumped bombs on us all night
and kept at least two bombers over
head at all times.
"At 1 am. all hell broke loose
Two enemy battleships and some
cruisers began working us over. Let
Burroughs tell you about that"
1t. Hubert Burroughs of Lo!
Angeles, son of the writer, Edgal
Rice Burroughs, laughed and said
That night I jumped into the
garbage DUMP"
Gen. Saunders. continued thu
narrative:
There were two atheists in near.
by foxholes. Pretty soon one OF
them yelled to the other in foxhole
so feet away. Brother, do you see
the light?'
"Not yet the other atheist

Was Army Football Tackle.
"A little later the first man yelled
again, Brother, do you see the light
now?'
"Then somebody In my foxhole
shouted, Just stick your head out of
this hole and you'll see plenty Of
light
"The shelling continued until
dawn. 1t was tough night.
People who read about she'll
ing don't think much Of it, but those
who have gone through such a
shelling don't want any part Of It,"
Gen. Saunders was star football
tackle at West Point from which he
was graduated in 1923, and later he
served as plebe and line coach
at the school.
His bombing squadron, which he
led as a colonel, was the first to
sight a Jap force of 40 or more
ships trying to reinforce Guadal-
canal troops, and gave the warning
which led to the Japanese rout in
the November 1915 battle of
Guadalcanal.
