FOUR SILVER A

The army's Silver Star medal is not bestowed lightly or
Unfortunately. 1t comes only after recommendation by the
military to the president of the United States. A Silver Star
means that the wearer has accomplished something above and
beyond the call of duty, and has done it in combat with the
enemy while in peril of his life.
There is real pride in the reflection that this medal has gone
to four Valley county men, four men, two of them little more
than BOYS. who earned it in the sweat and muck of jungle fight
ing. In earning it, two of them gave up their lives for their
country. They fell before the bullets of Jap machine guns
thousands of miles from home.
Two of them were about the age when youths begin to help
their fathers on the farm or when they go away to college.
They had Just had time to complete high school before they
volunteered for service. Both lie buried in the wilds of New
Guinea. Two others, fortunately, came through with their
lives. One closed his grocery store here to enter service; an
other left his job as a postal clerk. In their calings, their ages,
their stations in life. they represent the story of America; their
examples prove conclusively why we shall never be beaten. In
their common purpose to defend this country they represent
democracy.
Four Silver Stars! Proud of them we can all be. We well
know the price paid for them. Know it, yes. But do we truly
realize the ultimate in sacrifice and effort that they represent
the nights spent in swamp foxholes. the burning hot days full
of death, the exhaustion, the blood and muck, the ever-present
strain of stalking and watching for an implacable and treach-
erous enemy, the loneliness that must come to every soldier in
combat? These are the things we never can realize. Take one
of those Silver Stars, place it in the balance with what little
we can do at home, what truly small sacrifices we make when
we buy bonds, deny ourselves some comfort or conserve a bit
of gasoline. Which way will the scales swing?

TWO IMPORTANT MEASURES

There is a growing realization that there will be a huge
demand for useful and needed public works after the war. Both
useful and needed is new highway construction. In spite of
lighter passenger traffic, Montana roads are going to pieces;
some of our earlier oiLsurfaced sections, built in the days when
every community was demanding highways and when road
money had to be stretched thinly, are in deporable condition.
A bill has been introduced in each house of congress to
appropriate a billion dollars in federal funds yearly, for the
first three years after the war, for highway construction. This
money will not be an outright grant but must be matched by
state funds. The state will supervise construction and control
of the highways. 1t is important that these bills be passed so
that our state highway department will be in a position to lay
out a program that would give US $~20,0O0,00O a year for road
construction.
Some of these days, too, we Montanans must initiate a
special election for highway debentures so that we will have
money to match these federal aid funds. There is no other
way we will get the money. The need for new highway con-
struction is obvious to every citizen and car owner; the way
must be cleared for that construction.

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SERVICE

Women are called upon these days for many services, al
of them important to the war. Every community has been de
pleted of its manpower and its womanpower. This is no more
drastcally or seriously illustrated than in our own local hos
pital. We have had emergencies there of which few OF us have
been aware. Many skilled nurses have volunteered for military
service. We all recognize that the primary need for their ad
now lies with the army and navy. But it would be little short
of catastrophe for the community and county if our own hos
pital service should break down now. Many days, the hospital
staff is overworked. There can be no rationing, spreading out
of needed care for the sick or injured. 1t is during these rush
days that help of local women volunteers is needed so badly
Here is an opportunity for genuine service to the community.
1t does not require great skill or training. But it does require
willingness to perform unsung tasks. And, for those women
who volunteer, it will bring payment in the knowledge that
thew are helping to meet crying community and individual
needs.
