moved into RuaVatu, they found
the bodies of two nuns and two
priests, the only signs of humanity
in the deserted village.
From natives who socn filtered
back into Ruayatu from the jungle,
Johnson said, the Marines learned
the story of the cold-blooded mur-
der of the two Sisters of Mercy,
Sisters Odelia and Sylvia. and the
Rev. Frs. DuhCmel and H. Enger-
brink.
Warned of the approach of the
Japs, the priests and nuns had sent
their charges out of the village and
had awaited The invaders to plead
that they spare the church and re-
irain from pillaging the village.
The japanese answer, Johnson
said the natives told him, was to
shoot the two priests as they stood
talking and to kick their bodies
aside as they moved on to their job
of carnage.
The nuns were stripped, raped
and beaten until their bodies be-
came diScolored-then their throats
we're slashed. After that, related
Johnson, the Japs had ransacked
the church, smashing and tramp
ling sacred vestments and altar
vessels.
This evidence of Japanese saw
agery, said Johnson, shocked even
the most hard-bitten OF bis Jungle
comrades, who drove on through
the village to tangle with the Japs
rctreating just ahead of him.

VAGARIES OF WEATHER
RESPECT NO AREAS

1t Is given to localities to boast this
and that over other communities, and
climate and weather are well known and
honored grounds for such boasts. OI
course these arguments never can be
settled Arguments may stay put, but
the weather doesn't.
Who would expect, or want the age
old California-Florida "feud' on climate
to end? 1t would be a freak, indeed, II
the weather suddenly should decide to
end the dispute by giving both the same
quality.
But. getting back to the weather, and
that is the topic we started out on, this
winter season has found some quirks
that even Florida or the Golden state
can't quite explain away.
For instance, when frosts were aSSail-
ing otherwise semi-tropical areas like
our own Imperial Valley and the old
eternal youth state, New England
states, states on the great lakes and other
sections usually bound up in winter snow
and ice recorded summer temperatures.
Central southern districts long in fear
of cyclones at what seem ff-seaSons had
their fears for nothing during the cur
rent period On the other hand southern
California coastal country, blissfully en-
oying the usual winter sunshine and
balmv days has experienced series of
devastating storms unparalleled in It's
history.
We boasterS here in the valley talked
bit out of turn, and as punishment,
along came the tail end of the toast
storm.
You can't lick the weather, but con-
siderable progress has been made to that
end since the war started-at least eX
perts believe they can whittle a little of
that old "the weather is unpredictable'
saving.
The weather no doubt always will be
a universal topic for conversation and
continue to be friend in need when
"the party bogs down for want OF talk.

GREEN TOO LATE WITH
DEMAND TO STRIKERS
CLOS Angeles Times)

Had the telegram which President Will
liam Green of the American Federation
of Labor dispatched to the Power Bu-
real strikers, reminding them of the
AFI.'s mo strike" pledge and demanding
that they return to work, been sent as
soon as the strikers went out, it might
have done some good and been taken as
evidence of Green's good faith.
But since it was not received until after
the strike was over, and apparently not
sent until it was evident that the Army
was about to move inf indeed it was
not sent after the order for Army seizure
was actually issued-it can be put down
as a bel9ted effort to save unionlsm S
faith, or face, if any.
Green said, in addition to what he said
in the message, that the strike "wil do
labor" (meaning. of course, union labor)
"immeasurable harm. There is no
doubt of the fact, nor of the additional
fact that Green's nine-day delay in TAX
ing notice of the strike does not do union
labor any good either.
TIE public will not fail to note that
the repair work now feverishly going on
and which will result in full restoration
of service requires a good deal OF over
time for which the returned strikers will
be paid time and ahalf-probably dou-
BILE time in some cases. Thus many of
the strikers will be able to recoup their
earnings lost in the strike and perhaps
make profit out of it.
This city needs protection against out
rageous situations of this sort, which
can only take the form of charter provi-
sions safeguarding against municipal
strikes. Forfeiture of pension, forfeiture
of seniority ought certainly to be pro
vided; and an additional penalty forbid
ding payment of overtime when the over
time results from strike might we'll be
considered

CALIFORNIA; GROWTH
(Santa Monica Outlook

The population report recently pub
lished is not the result of an actual CEN
sus. but is based on estimates that can
not be considered entirely accurate. How
ever. it is of value even though 1t deals
in approximations.
These census figures will provide
new official basis for the rationlng OF
gasoline and will convince the Washing
ton authorities that California has not
been behind her sister states in war ra-
tioning cooperation. The food schedules
will not be affected because they are
established by definite applications that
can be readily checked, but the allowance
of gasoline for the area must hence
forth take account of the large pOpula-
tion increase.
The census estimates confirm the re-
markabla population increase which
every Californian knew had occurred.
A gain for the state of 1,0l3,000 is un-
precedented, especially as it covers less
than four years and not the usual census
decade. Of this, 378,000 were in Los
Angeles and Orange counties, the largest
in the state.
This great gain reported is primarily
war growth. 1t is composed chiefly
of men and women who came to Callfor-
MIA to work in war industry. Not all of
them will remain when that employment
ceases, but nobody can doubt that Cali
fornia has made a large permanent in
crease in population.

WASHINGTON, Feb. c3 tUPD-
Consolidation of the war and navy

there is an inclination to postpone

Joint chiefs of staff have now had

Approximately 10 months.

would create a single department
which would absorb the war and
navy departments. This single de-
partment would be headed by a
civilian member of the cabinet.
A chief CT staff with authority
over all arms-land, sea, and cir
would be the top military officer
supported by appropriate deputies
and a general staff. Up to that
point there is no substantial dis
agreement on organization.

that autonomy for the IS Soviet

brand new, conjured up just to

Stain was refugee revolutionary
in Vienna and he wrote, "A ma

REASSERTED STAND
After the first 1917 revolution
which put Kerensky in power.
Stain was editor of Pravda in
Moscow and he sat in with Lenin
at the Bolshevik party congress.
His one speech there was on this
nationalist question, and i'll it he
again recognized the right of the

rate themselves from the state.

ton TO the point OF state dissolu-
ton"
When the Soviet's new conStitu-
ton was being considered in 1896.
it was proposed TO Strike out a
provision granting the republics
right of secession, because none OF
them wanted to Secede. Stain OPP
posed this move. to emphasize his
belief that the u. S. S. r. was
free union of republics.
1t is only with this background
that MoScoW's new amendments
to the 1886 constitution, granting
autonomy in foreign relati s>' and
military affairs, should be judged.
REPUBLICS SMALL
You have to look at good map
of the Soviet Union, showing all
l6 republics, to see what this new
s-,tup means. Russia proper has 78
per cent of the land area and 60
per cent of the population-six
out of eight million square miles
and 109 out of 1873 million people.
The other Is republics are small,
mostly border states on the west
and south. You can conceive OF
Georgia and Armenian republics
exchanging ministers with Turkey.
which they border Or of the Soviet
Socialist Republic of Turkmen set
ting up diplomatic relations with
Iran or Afghanistan. Or of Ka-
Zakh. Uzbek, Tadzhik and Kirghiz
republics-of which NOSE people
probably never heard-going into
diplomatic dickering with China.
And you can conceive of all OF
them wanting and needing mill
tary organizations like the Amer
lean National Guard units, made
up of their own people, to preserve
order within their own borders.
1t is along such lines that Mos
cows central government has been
gradually leading its varied ma
tionality groups. Remember that
less than 80 years ago many OF
them were little more than wild
tribes. Granting them self-deter-
minaion in foreign affairs and
their own defense may mark
nothing more sinister than their
gradual emergence as small ma
tions within the Soviet Union.
