FIGHT WITH BONDS

The power of liberty bond
Is demonstrated across the pond;
Our boys have got a job to do.
So buying bonds is up to you.
Please keep buying them thick and
fast
May your buying power continue to
last;
We at home will do our all
To see the Axis backed to the wall.
We will and shall win this fight,
If we give it all our might;
No sacrifice must be too great
May we never hear the words (tOO
latch
The urgent need for you and me
Is buying bonds to keep us free;
The more we buy the sooner it will
be
For us all-VictOry!

UNSUNG WORKERS

Recent news reels contained a
propaganda picture of one of the
governments great socialized pow
er plants. An uninformed person
gaining his impression from the
explanatory remarks, would be JUS
tined in assuming that government
power projects were principally re-
sponsible for furnishing power to
our war industries.
Such is not the case. Without
the private electric industry, which
furnishes upwards of 80 per cent
of the power for American indus
tries, the great majority of our war
industries would come to a stand
still overnight.
The private electric industry has
no official spokesman. Its hun
dreds of operating companies fur
nishing power for the nation are
like the millions of small farmers
who furnish the bulk of the food
for the nation, unheard of and un-
sung.
Every time a gOvernment-owned
plant turns juice into war indus
try, the news is flashed from
Washington all over the country.
But nothing is said about the fact
that when Americas power de-
mands pyramided overnight, Amer
lean privately-owned power COM
panies performed a miracle of in
terconnecting their various sys-
tens, which had long been planned
for just such an emergency. This
was done in the days work, with
out a dimes cost to the taxpayer
millions were returned to
the Federal Treasury in war
taxes.
The socialized Federal power
plants have tax exemptions which
are inexcusable when every indus
try and every individual should be
sharing the war tax load. I

CURRENT "INTOLERABLE"
STOPPAGE

In a world war and in the face
of desperate fuel shortage, $4,000
anthracite coal miners have laid
down their tools and gone out on
strike. The issues?
The miners want a wage increase
of two dollars a day and they are
protesting an increase of fifty cents
a month in the dues of the United
Mine Workers.
Secretary Ickes, as solid-fuel ad-
ministrator, has denounced the
wartime stoppage as ''intolerable. :"
Labor union leaders have de-
clared against strikes for the dura-
tion of the war. Machinery has

tainment of the 1943 food goals
would mean a 12 per cent increase
lover 1942) in livestock and live
stock products, per cent in
crease in total agricultural produc-
ton, and a total food production
! increase of about per cent. II
these goals are attained, 1943 will
be the seventh consecutive year to
set food production record.
After Government requirements
have been met. the volume of 1943
food production left for civilians is
expected to be about the same as
the 1858 average, which was ade-
quate to feed the nation five years
ago but is 10 per cent below 1912.
OFFENSIVE IN LIBYA
The Allies have opened an air
offensive against Gen. Rommel's re-
treating Afrika Korps, in Libya. On
Sunday, January 10, Allied planes
bombed and machine-gunned the
German forces on the coast road
between Misurata and Tripoli. On
Tuesday, January IL, hey made a

miles south of Tripoli, raining
bombs on the airfield, setting fire
to buildings and destroying five
enemy planes on the ground E.

ming battle with German Messer-
schmitt fighters and without loss
brought down IA of them.
On the thirteenth, Allied planes.
in broad daylight, opened a heavy
attack on German positions in the
Wadi ZemZem area and in a fierce
air battle shot down four Messer-
schmitts and damaged others. The
night before. bOmbers had attacked
enemy landing grounds at Misurata
(which is about 6O-7O miles north
Of the Wadi ZemZem defense line)

The Presidents report on the
State of the Nation was generally
interpreted on Capitol Hill as a
gesture toward the relief of strains
set up by various executive agen-
cies,
The admission of home front
mistakes was taken to indicate that
the Chief Executive would endeav-
or to keep step or two ahead of
the new Congress in Administra-
ton house-cleaning.
It is rumored that the White
House will create another "Baruch
Commission" to study the manpow-
er problem and to quiet the in
creasingly bitter controversy over
whether the military or civilians
will run the war. Crux of the dis
pute is whether the military SER
vices are to retain their present
procurement powers or surrender
them to a civilian agency such as
is proposed in the Tolan-Pepper-
Kilgore bill.
The armed services. chiefly rep
resented by Under Secretary of
War Patterson, are bitterly opposed
to this bill. It is expected that the
Presidents statement of 1912 pro-
duction records will be used by Mr..
Patterson to prove that procure
ment in the hands of the military
establishment should not be dis
turbed at this juncture of the war.
Closely allied with this contro-
versy is the dispute over the size
of the Army. 1t is said privately, in
circles. that Manpower
Chief McNutt is trying to obtain
for the VINO to deter
mine the size of the Army and
Navy. Congress is restive, in this
over the protest of
farmers against depletion of the
farm labor supply by both Selective
Service and expanding war indus
try. and there are rumblings of an
of the whole situa-
tion.
II is believed that the Administra-
tion will propose the Baruch Man
power Commission TO soothe Con-
gressional anger in that sector as

he furore on the rubber front.

gagged in war production work.
An intensive campaign is to be
launched this month by the Red

AGRICULTURE AND WAR
Calling on farmers for unprece-
dented production in 1943, Presi-
dent Roosevelt said food already
sent to the people of North Africa
is saving the energies and the lives
of American troops there. Food, he
said, is a weapon in total war and
the record crop produced last year
by American farmers is a major
victory of the United Nations.
Year-end estimates from tn e
Department of Agriculture show
1912 output of livestock and live
stock products (for sale and home
consumption) up IL per cent over
1941, crop production up nearly IA
per cent. and total agriculture pro-
duction up more than IL per cent.
But it is still likely that, due to un-
precedented national income and

Auto Accidents Just
AS Harmful as Axis Attacks
BY COL. CHARLES L. SHERIDAN
Supervisor, Montana Highway Patrol

All of us are most vitality inter-
eSted in winning the war just as
quickly as we can. We are ready
and willing to put forth any effort
or to make any sacrifice that may
ry and rush and hustle of our war
time existence it appears that we
are overlooking n of the most
vital elements of our success, the
element of safety. Traffic and in
dustrial accidents throughout the
United States are claiming FAR
more lives and as much vital mater
ial as are the efforts of our en-
emieS.
Here in Montana we have had so
people killed and well over 200 more
or less seriously injured since the
first of January. Despite the SER
ious shortage of transportation OF
every description, we have had a
dozen big oil tankerS and scores OF
other trucks and cars totally des-
troyed.
In practically every one of these
accidents careleSsneSS was to
blame. In fact, it appears that our
carelesSnesS is one of our enemies
greatest assets.
In this critical stage of the world
struggle, we can i'll afford the loss
of this critical material, to say
nothing of the skilled workers, far
mers, soldiers and men and women
from every walk of life who have
been killed and manned through
their own, or some other persons

Christian Science

Love" was the subject of the
lesson-sermon which was read in
all Churches of Christ, Scientist,
Sunday.
The Golden Text was: 20 God,
thou art my God; early will 1 seek
thee -. Because thy loving kind
ness is better than life, my lips shall
praise thee" Psalms 63:1, 81
Among the citations which COM
priSed the lesson-sermon was the
following from the Bible: And,
behold, a certain lawyer stood up,
and tempted him, saying, Master,
what shall 1 do to inherit eternal
life? He said unto him, What is
written in the law? how readest
thou? And he answering said,
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and with all
thy soul, and whit all thy strength,
thy soul, and with all thy strength,
neighbor Is myself; and he said
unto him, Thou hast answered
right: this do, and thou shalt live"
duke 10:25-28.)
The leSson-Sermon also included
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, Sci
ence and Health with Key to the
scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy:
THE vital part, the heart and soul
of Christian Science, is Love" page
