Pops shoulder, with the frying-pan

Small Joe folded his hands and

Keeping Tools in Use

Many ACKNOWLEDGEMENT commit
tees have appointed special subcom-
mittees to get tools back in use.
These committees have found that
many men on skilled operations
own tools which they used in other
plants, etc. Several systems have
been devised to get these back into
use. In some plants special bulletin
boards have been erected where
workers are encouraged to post q
list of tools they have for sale. In
other plants, special tables have
been set up on which men place
their tools with price tag. In still
other plants, "tool days" have been
held on which everybody was in
vited to bring in all their old tools
for sale or swap. In other plants
trainees were encouraged to post
lists Of tools they wanted to buy
and what price they would pay.

Savo Island Mere Speck
In Long Solomons Chain

Savo island, near which three
American heavy cruisers were
sunk, is mere speck in the 900
mile-long Solomons chain.
Like most of the southwest Pacific
islands, Savo was made by volcanic
action. It's craters were active in
the 10Th century when Spanish ex-
plorers visited it, but today a little
smoke, steam, and hot water rising
from mountainside crevices are the
only evidences of activity. The
greatest height is about 1000 feet
above sea level.
The native population, once adj
dicted to head hunting, is small.
Village construction is of bamboo
found in local forests. Although the
island is only about ten miles north
west of Guadalcanal, scene of most
of the Solomons' land fighting, the
natives speak different language.
Linguists say it may be a lost
Melanesian dialect.
Civilization has been slow to
change the customs of the Savo is
landers. They shave their heads as
did their ancestors. Clothing is
limited. to loin cloth.
Food on Savo is plentiful. In FAM
lily gardens, yams, pineapples, Gu
cumbers and pumpkins thrive.
Bananas and coconuts add to the
natives diet. In the sand along the
seashore the islanders find a supple
ment to their menus-birds' eggs as
large as turkeys, says the Ma
tional Geographic society.

Arizona, Indiana Check
Motorists Speed, Tires

Speed-check systems developed
by the Arizona and Indiana state
highway patrols are making 1t tough
for fast or reckless drivers to get
new or retreaded tires from their
rationing boards.
Arizona highway patrol cars are
equipped with cameras to photo
graph speeding automobiles. A
speedometer is placed on the front
of the patrol car within range OF
the camera, and the speeder, his
car license number and actual
speed all are registered on the same
picture.
This evidence showing violators
exceeding the states speed limit is
made available to tire rationing
boards, which take the information
into consideration when a violator
applies for tire requirements.
(In number of states and cities,
the council said, evidence of speed
ing and reckless driving by motor
ist is turned over to rationing
authorities.)
When Indiana state patrolmen
notice anyone driving at speeds in
furious to tires or safety, a special
warning ticket is issued containing
name and address of the offender,
and nature of his offense. Copies 60
to the offender and the state Office
of Price Administration rationing Of
fee, where copies are made for Of
tenders local tire rationing board.
Local rationing boards use the in
formation when offenders entitled to
new or retreaded tires apply for
them. Evidence of abuse of tires
and the priority to get them is con-
sidered when decisions are made by
the board on applications.
