Well, Son! Dribbles is certainly
glad to hear that you like your new
station out on the West Coast.
Liking both your work and your
station will certainly make the
time pass much more quickly.
You'll be through the entire course
before you know it; especially
since you are having good share
of liberty thrown in to make life
much more worth the while. Your
description of your trips into Holly
wood and Los Angeles sound as if
you were moving about a bit al
ready. Could it be that the Wolves
are out hunting for the Little Red
Riding Hoods? Could be-period.
Better batten down the matches so,
remember what happened to the
Maine and BILL Melvin. By the
way, you ask for some addresses.
That's all fine as far as it goes,
however, you forgot to mention
whose addresses you wanted. When
it is all said and done, Dribbles has
about four hundred addresses in the
file, and / am sure that you do not
want all of these. Therefore, if
you will just make a list of the
names you want, send it along,
Dribbles will promise you a prompt
reply via air mail with the informa-
ton that you seek. How will that
fill the bill? Meanwhile, that or
angeade treat still stands, if you
are not fed up on oranges by the
time you leave California. And, by
the way, for the second time, your
good friend "Shap' was home last
week. He certainly did look fine
He has taken to the Service with
exactly the right spirit, and from
all we could learn, the Service has
taken him in precisely the same
manner. That means, things are
Clicking nicely. Dribbles thought
that you, and perhaps number Of
the other Boys, would be glad tc
learn that your "Old Friend" is go.
ling through the boot" camp days
in fine shape. Mighty glad to have
heard from you, son. Don't FORGE
to forward me a list of the address
es you wanted right soon. Mean.
while, best of luck and all gooc
wishes for your future.

Hello Dribbles:
Well, here / am all settled out
here at my new base for at least
eight more weeks. 1 am still go
ing to school learning more about
torpedoes. This present course is
what they call an advance school
where we receive more actual prac-
tical experience, working with the
fish" I like the work very much.
This base is a great improvement
over Newport. In fact, I was get
ting a bit fed up on my original
boot" camp before leaving there.
After seeing San Diego, and noting
the differences, 1 am more than
well pleased with the change. OF
course this is an older place than
my former station. Here We have
liberty every night from 5:15 p. m.
until 7:30 a. m, the next morning.
One night out of four we remain
back at the base to stand watches.
Two out of four week-ends we have
from Saturday afternoon 5:15
O'Clock until Monday morning at
7:30 o'clock.
Last weekend 1 went to Holly
wood where I saw the famous Hol-
lywood Canteen and quite a few of
the movie stars who were there.
They really put on good show for
us and treated us swell throughout.
I think that everything the fell
lows back at Newport told me
about concerning the midwest and
California was 100 per cent correct.
On the way out here, everytime we
stopped enroute, people gave us
things to eat and magazines to
read. Last Saturday night in Los
Angeles I saw a number of places
where service men were welcome to
sleep without charge. I slept in
one myself and they certainly
treated us fine. The beds, or cots,
were nice and comfortable. They
all had clean linen and everything.
A number of us fellows Joined to-
gether and left some money at this
place before departing. We had to
leave it because the management
would not take a single penny from
JUS for our overnight accommoda-
tons. I was really surprised at
the very friendly manner in which
we were treated. Il didn't see one
zoot suffer while in Los Angeles)
1 really had swell time.
The present course out here is
for eight weeks on one type of
torpedo. If I am fortunate enough
I'll have an opportunity to get a
live torpedo to work with. That
would mean eight to ten weeks
more on top of the first eight
weeks, but it is well worth it
think. 1 only hope l have the
chance to go through the entire
course. Most of the boys appar-
emily don't want it because it
means more time in school, how
ever, think it well worth the ex-
ira weeks spent.
Will you please send me some
addresses? 1 lost my address book
on the way out here, and with it
every address that I had. 1 guess
some of the fellows wonder what
happened to me.
Until later, remain

II Lo, Dribbles:
Through various channels, have
just received three issues of THU
SMYRNA TIMES - and, believe
me, they were certainly welcome.
Even if they had been issued dated
back during the time was actual
iy in Smyrna (and vicinity they'd
still have been plenty good-awful-
ay welcomed. But, such not being
the case, it's mighty gratifying to
read of the graduation, the dances,
the swimming and the church SER
vices-and all the rest of those
routine things we dream of over
here, still going on. 1t is a pleas
ant, comforting thought-even if it
does at the same time make up a
little yearning for home, it's well
worth it. I hope more issues of
THE SMYRNA TIMES will be sent
to me soon.
You have no doubt seen movie
shots of the mushy bottomless mud
that exits over here; but now
look for shots of the mud up in the
clouds-of dust storms. Even in
Delaware = never saw anything
like it.
Well, keep us in mind the next
time you listen to the radio, OF
have coke or something more ex-
citing.
I'll be seeing you,
Ed.

Well! Well Well A long time
no hear from you Lieutenant Ed.
Your V-Mail letter was therefore
indeed most welcome. Just as well
come, perhaps more, than The
Smyrna Times were to you. Ger
tainly, something should be done
about this-yes in both cases. The
Smyrna Times should be going out
your way weekly, and you should
be dropping in to visit with this
column more often. What do you
say about having these faults cor
rected promptly? We think it a
very good idea, my singing friend.
Dribbles was talking with Nelse
only last week. about getting some
news from you, and as if in answer
to this, along comes your letter, 1t
would appear as if two minds had
but single thought. Well! Ed
the old home area is very much the
same sort of place as when you de-
parted to enter the service. AS to
the population, of course a number
of old faces are missing. Most OF
the fellows within service ages
have left to join the colors. How
ever, you would still remember the
area just as it was were you to
suddenly drop in on us someday
Our little communities will always
be the same as long as we have
Americans who are willing to fight
to defend our way of living. Speak
ing of mud lieutenant, please do moi
forget that mud baths are advocat
ed for making one more beautiful
Perhaps this would be quite unnec
essary in your case, although, some
of the Boys might be able to stant
the improvement. What say? Bes
of luck to you, my friend, and ma.
you follow your lucky star unit
this present conflict ends. All o
us send you bushel of good wish
es for your future.

Dribbles was given the opportunity

he and his family used to live in

heavy physical labor which has
been established as q part Of GER
tain jobs when performed by men.
In such cases the employment Of
women workers may entail extra
supervision, extra set-up men, or
extra carry-off men. As pointed
out i'm the Brown and Sharpe
opinion, extra labor costs can be
computed In these circumstances
and can be given pro-rate weight
in establishing an equitable rate
of pay for the female workers.
Such an adjustment of rates is in
line with the equal pay for equal
work principle where it is nee
essary to prevent an increase in
unit labor costs. On the other
hand, such a division of work and
specialization of tasks may fire.
quently be made without increas-
ing labor costs even though the
female employees continue to re-
ceive the established rate for the
operation. In such cases, there is
no sound basis for setting of diff
ferential rate against the female
employee. Such division of tasks
has often been used ON jobs
manned by male employees as a
ear of reducing unit costs
while maintaining hourly rates.
There are sound reasons there
fore for guarding against the use
of the procedure to cut women's
rates under such circumstances.
The previous discussion indi-
Gates some of the factors which
must be taken into account in
equitably effectuating the princi-
pie of equal pay for equal work"
This matter cannot be entirely
disposed of by any clause, no mat
ter how carefully it may be word
ed. The principle of equal pay for
equal work must be worked out
i'm individual situations by parties
who cooperate i'm good faith to
secure the desired detectives. Even
under such circumstances , there
may be honest differences of
opinion. 1t is in recognition of this
fact that the Board has provided
in this case that certain disputes
regarding the rates established
for women employees shall be
treated as grievances and handled
through the established grievance
procedure.
The Board has excluded wage
rate adjustments for ..wOmen's
work from the retroactive pro-
vision of the Directive Order, be-
cause it believes that rates for
women already established should
be presumed to be correct In the
absence of concrete and specific
evidence that the rate has been
established in violation of the prin-
ciple of equal pay for equal work.
Where such evidence is submit
ted and an adjustment is agreed
to or is made by a decision Of the
umpire or arbitrator, the ques-
ton Of retroactive pay may best
be left to the agreement or the
decision, as the case may be.

made to Italy before her capitula-
ton by Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.
Churchill, backed up by dire
threats of destruction.
There have been fresh rumors OF
German peace feelers seeking def
milton of what unconditional sur
render" would mean. One such ru-
NOR said German resistance on the
home front was being bolstered by
the uncertainty as to the country's
probable fate.
Another rumor said German mill
tary leaders had Turkish Foreign
Minister human Menemencioglu
sound out British Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden on probable peace
terms if they agreed to an armistice.
Mr.. Eden replied, according to this
rumor, that the only term was "un-
conditional surrender"
The three Allied leaders also may
decide the date for the great al-out
assault on Hitler's European fort
ress from the west-promised for
next spring-and possibly accom-
panied by an invasion through the
Balkans.
They may discuss a program fol-
the general European political and
economic reconstruction under Al

In any event, the meeting would
serve as further manifestation o1

1t is worth noting that the item
spoke of government action, while
the only official announcements so
far concern the approval OF unde-
tailed action of Menemencioglu by
the Peoples Party Committee.
The Turkish British mutual aid
treaty, dated May II, 1899, provides
that the two powers agree to come
to each others assistance if at
tackled in the Mediterranean.
The Peoples View.
Husein Yalchin, editor of the
newspaper Tanin, who rarely re-
fleets the specific feeling OF the
government but frequently that of
the mass Of pro-Allied Turks, said,
meanwhile, there is no sense in
saying Turkey will not take up
arms unless she is attacked" and
added:
ITO say that at Cairo questions
concerning the alliance with the
British were discussed can only
mean that questions concerning
Turkeys entry into the war were
discussed"
Turkish diplomats and military
leaders continued to study the
course of the war around them-in
Russia, in Italy and, perhaps more
important, in the islands along her
coast.
Turkey was not pleased when the
Off shore Dodecanese islands were
wrenched from British hands by the
attacking Germans, but the quasi
official Aksham said that would
have no influence upon whatever
decision Turkey may take"
The Aksham editorial, first re-
Sponsible reaction to the Allied re-
verse, said: 1T is difficult to see why,
in view of the present critical phase
of the war and the importance of
the eastern Mediterranean, the
Allies did not think of the necessity,
even before the armistice with Italy,
of putting forces on the Dodecanese
islands. The conclusion to be drawn
from the British lack Of interest in
the islands can only be that the
eastern Mediterranean and the Bal
kans do not occupy important places
in their plans"
The newspaper added, there is
no doubt that the loss of Leros and
Cos did not make a favorable i'm
preston in Turkey. However, our
concern does not arise from the Al
lied lack of interest in the islands
but from the carelessness and lack
Of preparations they have exhibited
in their strength"
Aksham then said: Turkeys de-
cisions are measured Nd balanced
so that they cannot be affected by
events. We can guar
antee our British colleagues that
the loss of Leros can have no in
huence upon whatever decision
Turkey may take"
