SURPRISE FOR THE AXIS

"One hundred octane" is the
commonly accepted name for an
aviation super-fuel now avail
able in large quantities only to
the United States. The product
ion of 100 octane" gasoline on
the large scale demanded for
today's air war, is possible only
because the scientists, engineers
and process workers of the oil
industry and the contractors
serving it have labOred nightly
in the last three years.
To gain some idea of how the
American oil industry has done
the impossible in fueling tens of
thousands of Allied planes, facts
recently released by a single I'm
tied States oil company are en-
tightening. Since Pearl Harbor,
this one company, with its
thousands of workers, has turn
ed blue prints into operating un-
its which today are bringing its
production up to a point where
its plants alone will soon be
making enough 100 Octane gas
oline to fuel a thousand plane
raid on Berlin every other day.
That is an example of how
American initiative and enter
prise throughout our country
have set a speed and production
record that AdOlph and TOTO
will never be able to match.
THE PAY-OFF
According to the Manufact-
urers Association of New jersey
the pay-off of all check-Offs is
the latest demand of the Anal
gamated Meat Cutters and But
cheers WOrkmen. This butchers
union is now seeking to collect
rs cents per week union dues
from 165 German war prisoners
working under military guard at
Seabrook Farms. Bridgeton, N. J.
This is the same union who de-
Quoted a weekly assessment
from wages earned by soldiers
from nearby Fort Dix who had
volunteered and helped harvest
last years tomato crop.

The Jap attack on Pearl Har-
Dor was q military disaster for
this country. And yet losses in
material were confined to a few
hundred planes and comparat-
lively few ships. If Pearl Harbor
was a disaster, no words could
possibly describe an enemy bhtz
that destroyed 27,61S medium
tanks, 2O7,142 seventy five nm.
guns, SO heavy cruisers and 6,1S3
heavy b0mbers. But in the years
between 1918 and 1889 property
to the tune of SS,2S5, 100000 was
destroyed in the United States
by fire. These billions would be
sufficient to build the above
fighting force.
This country has been prod
igally careless with fire. Too
few people realize that fires can
start without the application of
flame. Spontaneous ignition is
a phenomenon that occurs in
oily rags, mops or waste and
paint stained clothes. Chemical
reaction causes the material to
heat up until actual fire bursts
forth. Common household dusts
from waste material and food
may explode with terrific force.
When either flour or dust from
vacuum cleaners is thrown loos-
ely into an incinerator or fur
mace, so that a cloud forms, a
violent explosion may take place
as soon as the dust cloud reach
es fire.
Another prime cause of fire is
the common match. Smokers
trike 5000 matches every Sec
ond. Too many toss them away
carelessly, not realizing that
fire kills more persons in the
United States each year than
our country lost in action dur
ing the first year of the war.
The annual death toll from fire
apprOximates 10000 lives annu-
ally.
These are a few of the facts
agOut fire that everyone should
know.
