TUESDAY. AUGUST 81

Benefic aspects rule on this day
of month memorable in world
history. There is a fortunate sign
/ for the United States Government
and those who bear war respon-
sibilities.
HEART AND HOME: Women
are under a favorable rule OF the
stars today and should make the
best of all bushes opportunities, or
career possibilities. 1t is an auspi-
cious date for girls who belong to
the WACS, WAVES and other or
carnations which are auxiliaries
or members of the armed forces.
Great benefits are to accrue to the
nation through the severe discipline
and fine technical training of our
youth who wear the uniform of the
United States.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Prevention
of initiation will continue to concern
Washington where subsidies will
cause stubborn division of opinion.
Rise in the cost of living may be
! felt especially next month when
preparations for winter needs will
make spending necessary. Labor
unrest will be widespread although
wages are high and living condi-
tons fair. Centers of war industries
will improve living conditions but
again fuel scarcities will add to do
nestle problems through the Winter

Substitutes for textiles will be nu-
merous and Winter fashions will be
novel. Astrologers counsel less dis

ycaod at Dover on Tuesday with

one which will bring forth much
needed legislation. Already bills
have been introduced which have
for their purpose the strengthen

looking forward to the postwar

WHEN the Kent County Republi-
can officials elected at the Novem-
ber elections, assumed office this
week, the G. o. P. held complete
sway in the middle county for the
first time in forty years. This as
sumption of power by the Republi-
cans as pleasing as it must be to
all loyal party men and women,
certainly should be doubly pleas
ing to Kent County Republican
Chairman ID. ID. Wharton. Since
assuming the leadership of his
party a few years back Mr.. Whar-
ton has demonstrated his value in
binding the several factions into
a whole, and in welding the group
into a fighting organization which
first began to show its strength
two years agO-and finally this
year to Overwhelm the Democrats
and oust them from county con-
troll after four decades of steady
administration. To Mr.. Wharton,
more than to any one man. must
go the credit for this accomplish
ment He has been a leader in
every sense of the word. He has
kept his promises faithfully, he has
rewarded party loyalty and has
fought his party opponents in
clean manner which has left but
few sears. While there were other
contributing causes to the great
overturn in Kent County. certain /
ly the work of d. d. Wharton had
much to do with the final result
His activities since the elections
in November and his assistance in
the organization of the General
Assembly this week has been
pleasing to his friends. who pre-
dict even greater victories under
his leadership.

He is familiar with the admins
tration of the office. with the legal
requirements. and has a knowl-
edge of the needs of all sections of

use of tin plate will be expanded
beyond anything which the can in
dustry has known heretofore. The
familiar shiny cylinder has become
an invaluable servant on the far
flung fronts. 1t is indispensable to
our armies because it is able to
withstand rough handling and ex-
treme weather conditions.
A good many things have hap
pened in the process. The can man.
ufacturer has adopted new methods
to conserve tin supplies. By the
introduction of the electrolytic pro-
cess, light plate was substituted
for heavier material. By the adap-
tation of chemically treated steel,
lacquered plate became suitable for
many products. By standardizing
can sizes, economies in steel were
achieved.
After rough-and-tumble journeys
which would wreck other types of
containers, cans made in America
now serve the men in the combat
zones in many ways beyond the
original purpose. Gasoline cans
become water carriers; food cans
see service as cooking pots, mir
rors for shaving and even cutting
and digging tools. In addition, can
factories now produce, among
host of other items. bomb cases,
anti-tank mines. aircraft fare
cases. first-aid kits, portable blood
banks and photo-flash bombs. The
lOwly tin can has indeed come into
its own in global war.

planes and tanks are on the way.
Also French forces fighting with
the Allied Army are being rein
forced and re-equipped. President
Roosevelt said that inasmuch as
the U. S. is attempting to get sup
plies to all the fighting forces Of
the United Nations, the crux of the
North African supply situation is
the question of shipping.
THE WAR FRONT
From the beginning of the North
Africa operations to December 26,
277 enemy airplanes have been de-
stroyed. OF these, 12S were
brought down by the Raj, 1O2 by
the U. S. Army Air Forces and 16
by anti-aircraft fire. Allied losses
for the same period total 114-59
from the USAAF and 55 from the
Raj.
Allied air activity in North Af-
rica has taken five main forms:
short range fighters and fighter
bombers (mainly provided by the
RAF) do the battle area attacking;
bombers (mainly provided by the
USAAF) carry out the daylight at
tacks on ports, shipping, airdromes
and railways; RAF bombers handle
the heavy night attacks, cOncen-
trating ON Tunis and Bizerte; Raj
planes protect con-
voys and attack U-boats, and
USAAF transport planes bring men
and supplies into the forward
areas.
In the Southwest Pacific area in
1912, 1886 Japanese planes were
destroyed or damaged, according to
an Allied Air Forces announce
ment. This total includes 1873
planes destroyed, $50 probably de-
;troyed and 313 damaged. In COM
Darison, the announcement said,
Allied plane losses in 1912 were
small.
