MORE THAN SKIN DEEP
(Santa Ana Register)

They say beauty is only skin deep.
Perhaps that is so. But much of it comes
from mines hundreds of feet deep in the
earth. Fashion models and American
women generally, would be surprised to
learn of some of the weird chemical
tricks that contribute to their breath
taking appearance. Most of these chem
ical tricks use COAL
Nearly all textile dyes are derived
from coal. Dozens of chemicals and
resins obtained from coal are needed to
process or finish fabrics. From coal
come plastics for dress buttons, orna-
ments, shce heels. Nylons are made of
coal. and water Accessories to
match" also owe much to coal; colors
for lipsticks and nail polish; scents for
perfumes; plastics for costume jewelry,
handbag frames, compacts-al altogether,
more than 100000 useful products depend
on coal-and many of them are used to
glorify American women.
Here is an example of how the stand
ard of existence which we accept as nor
NAL is actually miracle miracle sup
ported by an intricate industrial system
recurring millions of persons to keep it
running. Few of us realize that the
slightest unbalance in this system does
far more than deprive people OF jobs.
When vital industries such as coal are
unable to operate smoothly and effl-
GENTLY, the miracle begins to evaporate.
This is why every one of us has so
great stake in helping to do what we
can to keep industry running smoothly.
Every one of us wants to see the miracle
of American experience perpetuated for
ever.

REMOVING WAR MOTIONS
FOREVER FROM GERMANY

From different sources come patterns
: for removing Germany forever from the
. list Of war-making nations.
. First, it is suggested that her economic
. life be subject to closest watch and IN
this connection the plan would destroy
or take out of the country all her indus
trial plants
I, Next, banshment of the military staff
from top to bottom.
= Germany is not to be trusted again in
rebuilding her industrial power. She was
trusted after the first World War and
the result was this war. Money poured
into the Reich through government and
individual loans to put her factories back
into production was used to pile up the
I tremendous war supplies she had when
Hitler started his rampage. That Will
not happen again.
! And as long as the old hierarchy OF
war lords is permitted to exist war will
) be bred into the young generation The
purpose behind banishment of all mill
tarists of influence is to free the German
, people of the teaching and preaching OF
Teutonic might.
Both these plans should accomplish the
main objective and at the same time serve
as a warning for all other nations that
court war for wars sake.

New Fire Bomb
Spells Doom
For Japanese

DETROIT, June 26. CUP)-An
incendiary bomb campaign against
Japan that will scar a target with
% 100000 fires in a single raid was
revealed late Monday as an amaz-
ing weapon in the growing Ameri-
can offensive.
K. T. Keller, president of Chrysler
corporation, announced production
had been ordered on the incendiary
bombs at the rate of 2,00C 900 a
month-enough to load 1923 B-29's
for Sorties against Japan.
The bombs will be produced at
Chrysler's Evansville, Ind, plant,
previously assigned to cartridge pro-
duction.
Keller candidly said "I don't un-
derstand why the Japanese can't
see how terribly they're whipped"
as he related the staggering poten-
tial of the flame tossing BOMBS.
Asingle fire bomb weighs 10 pounds
containing magnesium and petrol
cum to produce the flame Each
bomb produces an average of 40 sep
arate flameS-globules of flaming
oil projected by the explosion of the
fuse.
But 38 of these bombs are COM
bined in a 500-pound unit bomb,
built to release the fire -throwers
within few hundred feet of a tar
get. Each SuperfortresS carries a
load of 81 large unit-bomos, or
1406 of the small bombs This means
$4,000 separate flame agents per
bomber
On raids in which 500 Superfort-
reSSes are used, this would over
spread given target-as Tokyo
with 28,G00,00O torches.

PAA, JAY HIGH
 WIN IN FIRST
 OF HOOP GAMES
Clippers and Huskies Play Off Exciting ie-Juneau
 TrampIes Signaes Friday
PAA, 26; Douglas High, 25. J-High, 35; Signacs, 20.

Last nights opening game oi Juneau's City Basketball League was, in good cid American jargon, "a killer -diller." with PAA's tall players defeating Douglas Highs wiry little men 26 to 25 in play off tie game that progressed from dull to exciting so fast it left the grandstandees hoarse from screaming; the second game, 35 to 20 near slaughter of the Signacs by Juneau's Crimson Bears, running in their second and third string teams after few minutes of the second quarter, was less exciting but highly indicative that Coach Anderson may have a champion ship team on this years loop.
 When the siX-foot- vicinity players on the Clipper team fin ished their first quarter with the Douglas HuskieS, the score was 4 to 10 in favor of Douglas and the air was imbued with slight tinge of boredom from the stands and the voiced opinion of many that the tall men were way, way out of condition" The second quarter, with the urinsnirinolv-won score of 12 to 8, still in favor of Douglas, was much Jne same way.
 It was in the second half that
