A WEEK OF THE WAR

The news of the week from Tu
nisia was the junction of the U.
Second Army Corps and the British
Eighth Army. Contact was mad,
about Is miles east of FL Guettai
on the Gafsa-Gabes road, which in
dicates that the British swung in
land some distance in order Il
meet the American force.
This junction was effected dur
ing the afternoon of April 7 (Wed-
nesday), after the decisive defeat
of Rommel's determined counter
attacks. Early Wednesday morning
when it became evident that the
enemy could not maintain any
position in the Wadi Akarit area
north of Oudref. Allied mobile
forces began moving forward. Wadi
Akarit is a deep, natural tank bar
rier which affords excellent defen-
sive positions, but the Allied forces
pushed their drive relentlessly,-
French, British and ffAmerican
troops moving in close cooperation.
And by afternoon the British and
American forces had made contact.
Effective Air Support
Aerial tactics are still a great
factor in the battle of Tunisia. On
Sunday, April 4, Allied air opera
tions cost the Axis II aircraft de-
stroyed; Mondays operations cost
the Axis As planes. and Monday
night an enemy bomber was brot
down. Tuesdays total was 81 Axis
planes destroyed; Wednesdays op-
erations shot down IA. Thus. in
three days of aerial combat, the
Allies put out of the fighting 101
Axis planes. at loss of 90 of our
own. Returning from an inspection
tour, Brig. Gen. Aubry c. Strick-
land, commanding advanced USA
A F headquarters, said that U. S.
Ninth Air Force units in the Tu-
nisian front lines helped break
the back" of German resistance.
Secretary of War Stimson. in
review of the war, told reporters
that in one day-24 hours-Ameri-
can planes operating in the Afri-
can theater shot down so Axis
planes and lost less than one
fourth of that number. Some of

Do you hold a full-time job anC
run your home after working
hours? Perhaps you're spending
extra hours in volunteer service
or is your job at home caring for
young children? In any case the
end of the day finds you tired and
you probably serve the quickest
easiest meals you can. This is good
management if those meals provide
the food your family needs. When
you consistently do not eat the
right foods. Hidden Hunger" re-
suits. You may not feel hungry
but you can experience hidden
hunger" in nightblindness, ner-
vousness. undue fatigue, poor di-
gestion. easy bruising, bleeding
gums. etc.
To insure getting the right food,
it is helpful TO plan at least one
days menus. but preferably sew
eral days menus at time. By so
doing you can see the day as a
whole and check TO see that suffi-
cient protective foods are included

pare in record time and yet supply
many of these protective foods
are:

From the standpoint of action,
the most important development of
the week was the Senate passage
of a revised version of the Bank
head Farm Deferment bill which
originally would have given blank
ct deferment to farm workers. AS
finally approved. the measure
would direct local draft boards to
defer all farm workers engaged full
time in the production of wares
sential crops designated as such
by the Secretary of Agriculture.
The measure now goes to the
House. where action is expected
shortly.

BATTLE OF WORDS

In times like these, when most
of the divergent factions within
the country are striving for unity,
and our armies are united with
those of other nations for the COM

arrange a "no-raidins' pact be-
tween them.

TOTAL MOBILIZATION FOR WAR

When the United States declared
war on the Axis powers all America
went to war-all industry went to
war-in total, all-out effort to win
and to win with the greatest pos
sible speed.
The total mobilization of Amer
ican industry has been a colossal
task but it has been accomplished
in an amazingly short time-be-
cause American business is geared
to the needs of the American peo-
pie and industry provides what its
people need come what may, in
peace or in war.
War does not mean guns alone,
nor does it require only, ships
planes. tanks. shells, and bombs.
1t means every facility of the Am
erican business system including
news and information, education,
insurance, banking service, electric
power, transportation. gas. textiles.
pharmaceuticals. and dozens of
other services which have been so
adequately provided and at such
great speed.
The stories of those industries
which in addition to carrying on
accelerated civilian operations
have also played a vital part in the
war effort will be told in these col
umns during the next few weeks.
Be sure to follow them carefully
so that you may have a full relsiza-
ton of what American industry in
it's all-out war effort has been doing
for the safety of your country and
that of your family.

with previous practice which re-

Fruhauf Trailer Company, largest

THE MEANING OF REPENT
, ANCE, by William Douglas Cham
berlain. Westminster Press, Phil

inspiring study in the New Testa-
ment idea of repentance. A book
like this has been long overdue.
Repentance is more than sorrow
for sin. 1t is the complete reversal
of the whole self. 1t is a lifelong
progress of changed relationship
with God and man. The death of
Christ was to put stop to our liv-
ing for self. 1t put life under
heavy obligation. The forgiveness
of sin involved redemptive fel-
lowship. The author sees the mod
ern revolt against God having its
roots in thinking away" the deity
of Christ, and "translating away"
the Christians Cross. He sees the
present need in the Church for
great convictions and great conse-

PAW Engineer
Comes 10 See
North Fields

The threatened ultimatum Of Mon
tana oil producers to the Petroleum
Administrative and other Washington
bureaus may have found an answer
this week with the coming Of PAW
engineer from the Denver office to
cooperate with Kelvin and Cut Bank
operators in the preparation Of an ap-
phcatiOn for an exception to the spae-
ing rules of each field, to make pos
sible the development of the oil re-
quired by the military.
A. w. Weeks, chief petroleum tech
nOlogist of the District 4 office at
Denver, arrived on Monday. He was
met in Great Falls by james W. John
son, president of Montana Oil & Gas
association, who turned over to the
government engineer the data gathered
by the committees of operators in the
two fields.
This being Weeks first visit to these
fields, he viii familiarize himself with
field practices and available technical
data and thereafter request the com
mittee to furnish available informa-
tion thus far lacking.
Application for five-spot spacing
plan in Kelvin, to replace present rules
of one well to 90 acres, was reported
due for rejection in Washington when
operators asked for more time to
present supporting data It is generally
believed that Kelvin win get a 10
acre spacing. Cut Bank hopes for 90
acre spacing. Cut Banks application has
not yet been filed with PAW.

One Oil Operator
Freely Confesses
Thot He Done II"

The Journals comment on the re-
cent sale of a state lease carrying an
added 21a96 royalty in lieu of $64O
cash, brought many comments and
grins from the industry and from off
cial circles up to and including the
governor There was talk that the
matter of state lease policy may come
up for discussion at the next meeting of
directors of the Montana Oil & Gas
association.
While no names were used in the
article, one operator confessed that it
was he who "done it" and he presented
the Journal with 7O0-word state
ment which is highly interesting but
too long for publication in this day
of white-print shortage. He denied that
the royalty is "overriding;" instead is
basic royalty; that the lease in ques-
ton "was necessary to complete nv
block" in a wildcat area where he had
spent $4,000 making a geological map
of the area and spent $4,000 in drill
ing without results. When he started
bidding against "billion dollar cor
poration," he said, at dawned on. me
that the only way to acquire this sec
ton was to make a bid with royalty
along with a cash bonus, feeling that
the major corporation would not go
over 12lA9o =. This is the only way
that an independent shoestring operator
can compete with major corporation
in bidding on state or government
lands"

Iron Ores to
Be Tested by
Mines Bureau

Senator b. X Wheeler has advised
the Great Falls Chamber of Commerce
that the T. S Bureau of Mines intends
to test the Running Wolf iron ore de-
posits in the spring. Because of con
iroversey over sponge iron processes
and lack of further advices from the
USBM it was feared that the pro-
posed drilling had been pigeOn-holed.
Following is the letter from Sena-
tor Wheeler:
In view Of your interest in the de-
velopment Of Montana's iron ore de-
posits. I am glad to inform you that I
have submitted to Dr. Sayers, Director
Of the Bureau of Mines, copy of

Legislative Assembly, and DR.. Sayers
has assured me that as soon as the
snow is off the ground in the spring
they viii take steps to investigate these
deposits.
