reach the Mouse River. He was
wounded in this campaign and has
since been awarded the Purple
Heart as well as the Combat In
fantry Badge.
In establishing the Vessel bridge
head across the Rhine the 194th
created precedent in airborne tactics
by landing on fields not previously
secured by parachutists. After
clearing the Germans from the east
bank to permit concentration of
troops and material for the final
Allied drive, the 194th went on to
capture Munster and aid in reduc-
ing the Ruhr Valley Pocket. 1t was
here that they captured Franz Won
Papen, high Nazi diplomat and
World War l saboteur.

torpedos and suicide boats in order
to move in close and smash more
than $50 Jap shore targets as her
contribution to victory at Okinawa.
Sometimes during the campaign,
the 37th major operation for the
MOBILE in this war, she moved in
so close that her crew said they
could readily identify uniform in
sigma.
The MOBILE was attacked dailv
by everything from "hecklers" to
attacks comprising a score or more
enemy planes. Once eight Jap suicide
planes were splashed within two
minutes in a sector covered by the
gunfire of the MOBILE and several
other ships.
Meanwhile, she was doing whole
sale damage to the Japs on the

You Can Help Now

II you find it difficult to get on train
remember that the railroads and the Pull
man Company by order of the Office of
Defense Transportation, have withdrawn
from service all sleeping cars operating be-
tween points $50 miles or less apart The
action was made necessary by unexpected
ly heavy arrivals of troops from Europe.
This action makes available an additional
695 Pullman cars and gives the military the
exclusive use of about half the sleeping
cars operating in the United States These
cars afford a greater measure of comfort to
our troops moving to the west coast prior
to embarkation to the Pacific theatre.
1t is interesting to note that in 1918, with
a total of approximately IL, 900 coaches and
sleeping cars, the railroads performe
42,676,OOOOOO passenger-miles of service.
In 1914, with approximately 27,7OO pas
senger-carrying cars, the railroads per-
formed 97,575,0O0,00O paSsenger-mileS and
the 1945 passenger load is expected to mount
10 per cent, to more than 100000 100000
pasSenger-miles or nearly two and one-half
times the 1913 passenger load-to be moved
in 80 per cent less passenger carrying
equipment
On account of wartime restrictions, the
railroads have been unable to buy passenger
carrying cars The hauling job and the
maintenance job they have done with the
equipment at hand is almost beyond belief
They have rendered services more expedi-
tiously, more courteously and with less
waste than in 1918 when there was vastly
more equipment, more engines and much
more manpower.
You can do your part to help out in the
greatest transportation job in history by
travelling only when necessary for purposes
other than pleasure

Worth Watching

Recently published criticism of the hos
pital and medical service provided by the
United States Veterans Administration, is
bearing fruit by starting corrective
measures.
The Administration suffers from the same
ailment that afflicts most government bur-
eaus that have been long established-dry
rot. They run by rule" and there is no
incentive to keep up to date, for there is
no competition to meet
DR.. Jerome r. Head, tuberculosis spe-
cialist and Associate Professor of Surgery
at Northwestern University, in making pub
lie last years recommendations of the Vet
Grams Administration medical consultants.
IN the New York Times, said the Admins
tratlon has not offered good careers to the
physicians whom it employs. Young men
entering the service should be rotated and
given broad training and opportunity for
postgraduate courses Adequate libraries
should be available and a follow-up system
should be maintained to determine the end
result of the medical treatment given
patients.
Regarding tuberculosis Dr. Head said the
service should be integrated with the var
louS county and state facilities as it is much
better that the patient be cared for close
TO his home where frequent check-ups can
be made by the physician who has treated
him through his illness He said: eff the
Administration is to assume responsibility
for the care of tuberculosis, it should make
elaborate nationwide arrangements for CIV
ing pneumo-thorax and checking those in
whom the disease has been apparently ar
rested or cured
MANY of the shortcomings of the Vet
sranc Administration as it is today are in
separable from government medicine where
doctors are made subservient to bureaucrats
and politicians -, ;" said DR.. Head. "What
the government might do to medicine as
whole by making the service impersonal
and perfunctory, is not pleasant consid-
Grafton"

Sound Thinking
On Reconversion

AS the war draws toward its final stage,
clear thinking is essential if the things we
have fought for, or against, are not lost in
the shuttle.
The most important development since
We Day is the announced policy of the
War Production Board, as presented in the
report of Chairman Krug. 1t sets forth the
principles that will govern the decisions of
the WPB during the reconversion period,
and stands out as document of history
making importance. 1t affirms faith in free
enterprise. 1t rejects the idea that govern
ment planning, in the sense of control by
blue print, can be as effective or lead to as
desirable ends as private planning E. 1t
takes It's stand on the simple ground that
government regulation, administration and
control would impede and slow up the re-
conversion process and diminish production
and employment The keynote is the dec
laration that it is necessary to get rid of
regulations and production limitations as
quickly as possible. They automatically put
ceilings on initiative, Imagination and re-
Sourcefulness. the very qualities the country
will need most if we are to have resilient
and rapidly expanding economy after the
defeat of Japan.
AS the cutbackS increase says Mr. Krug,
some areas are bound to experience I'M
employment In many areas, time will
solve such dislocationS-as peacetime indus
tries start up and hire workers; but in some
areas, special measures taken to maintain
employment would merely postpone the
eventual day Of reckOning-aS for instance
war boom town which is greatly expanded
because CT particular war plant with little
or no postwar future. We must prepare to
meet such emergencies when they are real;
but we must also be prepared to resist the
pressure when they would only delay neces-
sary readjustments"
Mr.. Krugs position is eminently sound.
Business and labor both can take heart from
his statesmanlike utterances. AS between
efforts to shelter people from unacceptable
readjustments, and policies relying upon
government economy and Individual enter
prise to establish sound general prosperity,
the advantage is all with the latter. Special
measures for the benefit of some people
or communities are at the expense of others,
while policies designed for the general bene-
fit help all go forward together.

What About A
Swimming Pool?

With the return of hot weather, the need
for municipal swimming pool for Wyan-
dotte residents becomes more apparent
Young and old, swimmers must travel to
Lake Erie beaches or to pools in River Rouge
or Dearborn to seek relief from the heat.
More than 40 years ago, plans of the city
to provide swimming facilities within the
city were Shelved. Today the only avail
able pool is at Roosevelt high school.
Councilman James H. Mason recently
suggested that a pool be built here and
estimated that the cost would be nearly
$4,000. Expense of up-keep and returns
on the initial capital investment can be re-
allied through a small charge to users of
the proposed municipal pool.
Favorable action by the council on the
proposed pool either in itself or as part
of municipal recreation project will be
the first step in providing adequate recrea-
tional facilities for the growing population
of Wyandotte.

Action Needed On
Workable Plan

With the war brought to a successful
conclusion, the time is now ripe for the city
of Wyandotte to bring the Work Pile Plan
TO reality.
Veterans are now returning to the city
by the hundreds and many are finding
themselves without jobs. 1t is for this rea-
son that far-sighted planners set up COM
munity program to supply jobs of all types,
skilled and unSkilled, to provide unem-
ployed ex-servicemen with work
Under the proposed plan, jobs are to be
made for the $500 men and women who
have left Wyandotte for the services. Work,
said the planners, could be provided for each
and every one of them in any capacity they
desired
Now is the time for the work-pile COM
nittee to prove that the program is not
another wartime dream to be forgotten
with the advent of peace. This is the moment
that they have been waiting for. 1t is up
to the committee now to show the public
of Wyandotte that their plan can work
and is working.
