there are conditions or controls
which shackle the nations press,
the sooner the facts are estab-
lished, the better for all concerned.
Intelligent editors cannot be ig-
norant of the suspicion that exists
in the minds of many Americans
that the press plays its favorites.
that it often presents unbalanced
news" that it omits some news
as a matter of policy, that editorial
direction is influenced by the finan-
cial interests of proprietors and
that news and policies reflect the
power of the advertising dollar.
We list the suspicious above be-
cause we know that they exist. We
realize that, occasionally, each sus-
picion is justified by individual
journalists and newspapers. Even
so, the overwhelming majority Of
editors, news men and newspapers
are fundamentally honest and any
impartial survey will present in.
disputable proof of this important
fact.

Knox Dies In Service

THE DEATH of Frank Knox
Secretary of the Navy, sug.
gests that the veteran newspaper
man gave up his life in the service
of his country.
In 1910, after the fall Of France
President Roosevelt, anxious tc
avoid the suspicion of dictatorship
appointed high-ranking Republi,
cans to the Cabinet-Knox as Sec.
rotary of the Navy and Stimsor
as Secretary of War.
Both men were up in years but
responded to the call in the inter.
est of unity and cheerfully &C
cepted the tremendous burden:
imposed upon them.
Mr.. Knox has been active, Wig
orous and unsparing in carrying
out his duties. The wear and tea,
of his office, during critical years
undoubtedly shortened his life. Hi.
passing means that the nation has
lost a loyal and patriotic citizen
able and willing to put the wei.
fare of his country above partisan
politics.

apprehension Unlikely
TT MIGHT BE well to realize that

1T MIGHT BE well to realize that
= the much-heralded invasion Of
Europe may not develop in exactly
the way most of us expect. Some
Of us have an idea that on a given
day, the full striking power of the
United States and Great Britain
will be ferried across the Channel
to launch terrific about attack
upon German positions.
Actually, the prospects are that
no such operation will be at
tempted. The invasion will likely
begin on a small scale, compared
to the popular conception of the
massive offensive, and will be en-
larged progressively by other rela-
lively small-scale operations.
The strategy of General Eisen-
hover has not been revealed but
it seems safe to write off the idea
that the decisive battle Of the war
will begin everywhere at the same
time.
It is much more probable that
that Anglo-Americans will attack
at a given point, take advantage Of
overwhelming sea and air superb
ority and make good a considerable
beachhead. This will be repeated
elsewhere under the protection of
overwhelming sea and air support.
Practically everybody recognizes
the great role that the Air Force
will play in the invasion of West
ern Europe. Certainly, wherever
the Anglo-American army strikes,
it will be accompanied by adequate
power in the air. This is gener-
ally accepted as the first requisite
Of a successful operation.
What good many Americans
do not recognize, however, is the
important role that will be played
by warships. The guns of the
combined fleets will undoubtedly
deliver broadsides of unprece-
denied destructive power. They
will blast the enemy defenses and
give to the landing-barges an ex-
plosive barrage that cannot be ex-
celled by ground artillery.
There are many advantages to
be secured by the slow and grad
ual development of our offensive.
Obviously, if the invasion begins
along a wide front, there will be
a dispersal of naval and air sup
port. If selected beachheads are
established, one at a time, full
aerial and naval support will lie
available in each locality during
the critical initial period.
After men, machines and equip
ment have been safely landed and
the fighting expanded into the in
terror, our forces will be able, if
necessary, to adopt a defensive role
until other landings make it pos
sible to increase the pressure upon
the Toe.

Plan For Moving
Poultry Products

Steps are being taken to assure
an orderly transport of poultry and
poultry products from production
plants to market this year, the
Office of War Information reports.
Information obtained from all con-
cerned, producers to professors,
will determine whether the produc-
ton and marketing of these prod
ucts in their respective districts is
of sufficient volume to warrant the
establishment of a committee to
work with ODT in a nationwide
industry transportation program.
The program provides for the con-
servation and full use of CONNER

porting these products.

DOgwOod Time

MOTHER NATURE has a SUI
40 preme disregard for turmoil
among men. In the midst of war
and political dissension she goes
serenely on her way through the
seasons. Struggling, fretting,
stupid humanity is thus offered the
age-old lesson on the futility of
disregarding the simple, funda-
mental things.
This is dogwood time hereabouts,
and lilac time, too. Both of these
radiant May boomers are now at
their height. The dogwood makes
a superb picture of every wood lot
fringe. War or no war the dog
wood blooms on time, presenting
us the annual reminder of the
truths so admirably expressed in
James Russell Lowell's immortal
poetry:
For cap and bells our ives
zoe pay;
Bubbles zoe bay Nth aohole
souls tasking.
IT'S heGOen alone that is given
G0dy,

asking.

summer,

comer.".

Swine Industry Develops

c. D. Carpenter Helps Hog Growers Solve
Problems; Program Tailored by Coopera-

By BAUKHAGE
Netos analyst and Commentator.

TNU Service, Union Trust Building
Washington, ID. G.
When / learned that a former feed
man had been the moving spirit in
drawing UP the present swine pro-
gram which you'll be hearing about
shortly, ! recalled an adage l once
heard In London:
''The profit in the mustard bust
ness is in the mustard you leave on
your plate"
That was the statement once
made by famous British mustard
manufacturer. In other words, the
consumers waste is the producers
gain.
The proposition seems logical
enough and nobody could blame the
mustard-maker for hoping that you
and / would be as profligate with
our condiment as possible. On that
basis, l was recently surprised to
learn that the government had
called In man in the feed business
and paid him dollar a year to help
solve the feed problem. wondered
If 1t wasn't just possible that maybe
the consumer was going to suffer.
had a talk with some members
of the department Of agriculture
after / learned that this gentleman
had done so much for the poultry
raisers that they picked him to help
on the swine program which is as
closely connected with the feed
problem as the fly is with the fly
paper.
why should you pick a man
whose interest it is to have the
farmer consume as much feed as
possible. when there isn't enough
feed to 60 around now?" ! asked.
This whole program" the gov
eminent official told me, ''is worked
out by the swine industry itself; the
men who produce the hogs. the men
who process them, help feed them,
distribute them. That's the point.
The government merely cooperates.
You had better talk to Mr.. Car
penter."

Fundamentally Honest

THE PEOPLE of the United

there is no reason why the inves-

Transport Lines

"This is invasion year." the di-
rector of ODT said, and the trans
portation system must be free to
respond to any demands that the
occasion may make upon it. The
unessential traveller will have only
himself to blame if he is indefi-
nitely stranded, or finds his Pull
man reservations summarily can
celed, or finds passenger schedules
temporarily disrupted and intercity
buses completely swamped, the di-
rector said.

MonpoDer Needs

While everybody is talking about
rehabilitation, 1t seems strange
that mobilization in many fields is
still far from being complete. There
are crying needs for man and @om-
an power in two phases of the war
effort causing serious trouble.
The National Advisory Committee
for Aeronautics, which is the federal
governments experimental and sci
entific research organization. needs
$500 men. Without this compile
ment, the NACA director Of per-
sonnet says ''the development and
production of new and improved
aircraft is being hampered."
The need Is localized-in labora-
worries at Langley Field, Va, Moffett
Field, Calf, and Cleveland, Ohio.
Engineers, physicists. chemists. ma.
chinists. toolmakers, sheet metal
workers, instrument makers. engine
mechanics. electricians, pattern
makers and other skilled tradesmen
are needed.
At the same time. the National
Women's Advisory committee Of the
War Manpower commission reports
that the women's corps of the vari-
GUS armed services are falling far
short of their enlistment quotas and
many thousands Of women also are
needed in areas Of labor shortage.
The committee is urging women's
organizations throughout the country
to undertake the recruitment job as
a major war effort.
