 Their hour will strike when the Allied landings begin. How hard they can hit we do not know. We do know that the Nazis fear them and are trying to confuse them as to the signal for their final uprising. When the right signal comes as 1t will, they will be ready for action.

No More 'PN' Labels

Still on the subject of rehabilitation, it is good to learn that the Army has dropped the term "psychoneurotic" in de- scribing men rejected for nervous and mental causes, and substituted mot suited for military service"
 The "PN" label has closed the doors of jobs to good many men. In some cases it has kept them from reSuming jobs that they had held satisfactorily be- fore their rejection. Army doctors have always maintained that emotional un- fitness for the rigors and regimentations of the service did not necessarily indicate instability.
 Many men rejected as "PN" cases could have lived out their whole lives as civil ians with no suspicion of stigma. It may be hoped that change in terminology will prevent occurrences of many embar- rassrnents and injuStices in the past.

No Last Frontier

Whats to be looked for when war is overflow about jobs, wages, and stand ards of living-comeS at times to the mind of almost everyone, busy as he or she may be at present wartime work. Among the best prescriptions these days for those with the malady of postwar peSsimism are given each Sunday by c. F. Kettering, General Motors direc- tor of research. MT. Kettering, talking briefly in connection with the General Motors Symphony program, has been do- ing a splendid job at healing the war wearied mind, his medicants wrapped in a general label-"There is Always Frontier"
 No one arises more quickly than MT. Kettering to any challenge of that state ment. He has drawn on inventive and industrial history in his Sunday talks pointing out that change is constant, that not all of the worthwhile things are done, nor the surface more than scratched, that only an open mind and a willing hand are needed. Whether inventive procedure has its success the first time or in 20 years is incidental, Mir. Kettering believes. He has told the story of the pneumatic tire, first made as an improvement to childS play vehicle, Wtk4A A&O AA~0 0AA bAA~ Re%AS SA NNAS of it's ultimate many uses. He feels there should be no impatience about develop ments from ideas and is certain they will continue to emerge and that they will reach full application in proper time.
 Keeping the nations skill at mass pro duction at it's best will serve us equally as well in future peacetime as it has in the past and as it is at present in the building of war necessities, MT. Ketter- ing asserts Let us be sure we under stand our system of mass production, and SO learn to appreciate it great military and economic value that we won't lose it unintentially," were his closing words in a recent talk.
 While American industry is making its fine war record, at the same time it IS looking ahead and is not afraid of what it believes will come with peace. Its engineer. research men, and executives generally Agree with Mir Kettering that there will be new industries and new jobs after the war is over, as long as the American inventive mind is alert and keen.
