WASHING
Have you been having trouble In
getting clothes clean in your wash
ing machine? Here are some "per-
hapses" that might be the cause.
Perhaps you're not washing the
clothes long enough. The manu-
facturer Of your particular ma
chine probably gives the best time
for your particular machine in the
booklet Of instructions that came
with it. It's just as important not
to wash them too long, though,
because dirt from water win 60
back into the clothes after q while
and they wear out with long wash
ing.
Or, perhaps you're not using
enough soap to make good suds.
II the water is hard, a water-soft-
ener will help make better suds.
If you measure the amount Of soap
carefully with a measuring cup,
until you find the proper amount
to use, to make two inches Of suds,
you can not only insure plenty Of
rich, fluffy suds every time you
wash, but you can also keep from
wasting soap through using too
much.
Too many clothes and not
enough water will prevent things
from getting spotlessly clean. The
water should come up to the load
ing line and no further. Be sure
not to overload with clothes :. .
it's better to do more tubs, but
have them clean, than it Is to try
to do everything at once and have
them come out gray.

VETERANS ADMINISTRATION

There is an article in the April Cosmopolitan which makes shocking indictment of the 30 mental hospitals operated by the Veterans Administration The article written by Albert C. Maisel after an Investigation is his second Veterans Administra- tion hospitals the first he charged that thousands of tuberculous veterans. being neglected, mis- treated underfed and discharged to almost certain death in the hospitals by the Veterans Ad ministration" Maisel calls for purging of the Veterans Hospitals to prevent hundreds of thousands of new veterans becoming victims of nefficency
 We shall not attempt to go into detail about the charges made by Maisel, but shall quote this paragraph:
 By every measure-their record, their personnel, their abuses, their medical backwardness-the Vet erans Mental Hospitals stand indicted thrd-rate institutions. Only when it to expenses do they outdistance comparable Federal and state institu- tions"
 We understand that a Congressional committee already has been named to make investigation of the entire Veterans Administration This investiga- ton should be thorough as We it will be, in the face of such an indictment, and if such abuses are uncovered no time should be lost in correcting them. It would be indeed sad commentary on big hearted sympathetic America if she prepared to help feed and rehabitate the unfortunate throughout the world she should neglect those who become maimed in mind and body through fighting for free dom-loving people.

General Marshall has appealed to the American people for understanding and support during the re- deployment of troops from Europe to Asia following the defeat of Germany He declares that this period will be more critical than the battles now being fought once hostities in Europe end, every man in that area will have 'an overwhelming urge" to go home Yet at that very moment it is imperative that start the movement of troops through the Suez and through the Panama Canal of the units needed in highest priority for the acceleration of the pagn in the Pacific Any delay, any loss of momentum in that campaign means the unnecessary loss or mutilaton of more young Americans
 Not all of the in Europe will be needed in Asia and undoubtedly there will be partial demobilization of European forces. But the War Department is not announcing what plans 1t has, for the very good reason that they depend much on factors entirely outside it's control the control of anyone in the United States They depend upon the enemy. No military commander today can do more than hazard intelligent guess as to when the war in Germany will be Not even the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington, the supreme Allied military authority, know how much more fighting is necessary in the Pacific to bring about the complete defeat of Japan how long it will take.

On the home front they have logged more than 1l4000000 pas senger-miles and than 103000000 ton-m miles of cargo flown in strictly categories. The manifest of their cargoes flown to every theatre of the global war gives the clearest picture of the variety and mmensy of the struggle. The transports flew fuses for tank destroyer shells which helped Montgomery turn the tide at Fl Alamein. They carried bombs pilots and material which forestaed the Japanese at Dutch Haibor They have carried gasoline, plane parts, even jeeps, the hump in the Himalayas Blood plasma and whole blood dynamite, small loco motives eggs dogs fresh vegetables for exhausted fighter pilots, hog brstles cutting diamonds, Prime Minister Churchill generals, admirals farm laborers from the Bahamas clothing and almost every other item the quarermasters book have been day-by day cargo.

RIO ENTHUSIASM

Three years ago at Rio de Ja- neiro, another conference was held of American foreign ministers to solidify the New World against at tack. There, nothing hinged on stiff-necked formality. Instead of three solemn speeches-as ln San Francisco = dolefully opening the Conference, any Rio delegate might take the floor and say what he thought.
 Nobody cared about lunch. No body cared about the Rio recep- tion scheduled for the late after noon. Nobody cared about the heat. The Conference was carried away with it's own enthusiasm, with It's own anxiety to achieve.
 At San Francisco-how different. No delegate had a chance to speak at the opening session. He could not pour out to his colleagues his hopes and dreams for future peace. He could only sit and listen-llsten to the solemn, carefully modulated voice of the far-distant President, listen to the perfunctory speeches of welcome reeled off by local officials.
 It had the atmosphere oi an un- dertakers parlor; or perhaps U. s. Steel Corporation directors meeting over which Ed Stettinius once presided Instead it was sup posed to be a conference carrying with it the hopes, the ideals, the future of mankind.
 Meanwhile, from incoming trans ports. cots laden with wounded men were loaded on hospital trains to roll away quietly-almost as If they did not wish to disturb the solemn serenity of the delegates by injecting any unpleasant reminder of war.

to bolster morale, now considered far more important than the actual physical problem of trans fer to the Orient.
 Greatest problem alter the vic tory in Europe" according to Col. William Menninger, world-famed Chief of the Army psychiatrists, will be that of persuading combat veterans who have completed one job to pack up and go on to an other war in the Pacific" He an- ticipates heavy rate of AWOL's.
 Inns is the major reason that members of the Senate Military Affairs Committee argued last month against giving CTS on their way from Europe to the Pacific 30-day leave at home. They are afraid civilian members of the soldiers family will encourage them to defy orders to go on to the Pacific.
 Many men whose morale is i'm l paired but who are not actual neurotics will be pushed over the borderline by the Pacific transfer, Col. Menninger fears, although he believes most reasonably well-ad- juSted men will be able to take the orders in their stride.
 Excessive celebration here of the ] VIE Day announcement will make the Pacific assignment a par ticularly hard thing for European battle vets to accept, he warns.
 Note-Col. Menninger is also %orried about the relatively small number of psychiatrists now prac- ticing-only about 4,000 will be available for postwar work, he esti- mates. And he is certain that at least twice that number will be needed to take care of SerVicemen after the war. Only practicable solution, he feels, is for medical schools to train general practi- tioners in psychiatric methods so that they will be equipped to step into the breach and handle some Of these psychiatric cases along with their regular medical practice They will be badly needed to handle insanity-the most tragic type of casualty from war.

HOROSCOPE "The- stars incline

WEDNESDAY, MAY 2

WEDNESDAY, MAY 2
 Until late today adverse aspects dominate but better planetary in- fluences prevail in the evening. Labor is under the most threaten ing sway.
 HEART AND HOME
 Nasty judgment and unkind words may be more common than usual under this configuration, which seems to presage nervous strain and abnormal sensitiveness among women. Fatigue should be avoided in household tasks.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Cartels will be discussed in Con- gresS and U. s. trade centers, it is foretold. There is sign of wide spread suspicion regarding certain corporations which may be un- justly accused of absorbing foreign capital
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 The seers prophecy dangers through unwise criticism of public affairs. Freedom of thought and opinion as expressed in press and radio may be carried too far in coming months, the stars indicate.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 For more than a century it has been prophesied that in a miracu- lous way Russia would become the dominating force in Europe. A re- cent chart seems to show that this year will bring to the Soviet Gov ernment political and economic victories as great as those achieved on the battlefronts.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of op- portunities. Speculation and TO- nance should be avoided.
 Children born on this day have unusual possibilities of success in careers that require steady effort. They will be physically strong and mentally alert
