Until the Last Man is Home

Count right now on Great Northern Railway to do it's level best better than
that if poSIble!-to get Northwest service mn home from camps and separation
centers for Christmas.
But, please do not count OF miracles, for the nations RAILWAYS face
today the worst passenger travel congestion they've ever had!
You are entitled to know why train travel, particularly on Western lines now
is difficult and will continue t o be so for at least 90 days.
The principal reason is the accelerated rate at which service men are
being returned to the United States. This month more than million men
will be landed 1T Pacific and Atlantic ports. And, at least 80 per cent of
them must and will be moved homeward by railway.
There are two "rubs" in todays train travel picture. One is that railways have
been called on to handle a vasdyinceased volume of military traffic al a time
when thousands of civilians, including students and teachers, plan to q home bv
train for the ye@end holidays.
The other and most important is that there just isn't enough rail-
way passenger equipment to meet both military and civilian demands.
The railways tackled their job in World War II with one third fewer passenger
cars than they had in 1918. Construction of new passenger equipment by and for
railways was not permitted after 1911. Great Northern has had five sreanGned
trains OF order since 1943' but delivery cannot be made in time to relieve the
present congestion.
Nevertheless, rehabilitation transport must go ahead, and toward getting it
done, railways are assigning threefourhs of all sleeping car space to troop move
ments In addition, Great Northern and other Western lines have with
drawn hundreds of sleepers, coaches and baggage carsf from regular service
for special troop train operations. In a single day nor than 20 special
troop trains are being moved on Great Northern alone. These include
trainloads of eastbound service men and unoccupied equipment moving
west to pick up troops awaiting transportation.
It's going to be difficult to obtaint train accommodations t. and from almost
anywhere in the nets several weeks. Leaving woud-be passengers behind makes
n one happy, and crowded conditions On trains are ct conducive tic comfort.
Public transportation is Great Northerns business. During the travel
congestion period, which already has begun, the railway will provide
civilians the most effective service possible while we finish u var job-the
job which won't be finished until the last man is home.

$1,000 Gift Speeds Drive
To Provide Service Bibles

The Washington City Bible So
cietys campaign to raise $4,000 to

Supreme Court Rules
Wage and Hour Act
Covers Pieceworkers

Americas great army Of piece
workers today could claim the pro-
lection of the Wage and Hour Act.
In an 81 decision read by Justice
Murphy yesterday, the Supreme
Court said that neither the policy
of the act nor the legislative history
gives any real basis for excluding
pieceworkers from the benefits Of
the statute"
Justice Roberts noted dissent.
The act provides overtime at time
and one-half rates after 40 hours.
The ruling set aside a decision of
Federal District Court for Southern
California, which said piece-rate
employees of the Perfect Garment
Co., were not covered by the act.
In unanimous decision read by
Justice Roberts the court ruled that
Federal al-owned housing projects were
not liable for local taxation and
Government attorneys said that the
principle is applicable to large de-
velopments built with Federal funds
eight to 10 years ago, even though
they are leased to local authorities.
The case came from Ohio, where
efforts were made to collect taxes
in Cleveland and Cincinnati.
The opinion noted that the law
authorizes the Federal Government
to make agreements for payment in
lieu of taxes.
"At the National Capital Hcasing
Authority, spokesman said the de-
cision had no bearing on local de-
velopments.
The court, in another action yes
terday, agreed to decide If the Wage
and Hour Act calls for portal-to-
portal pay for bituminous coal
miners. An earlier decision held
that iron ore miners are entitled to
this pay, which covers the time con-
sumed in underground travel. The
coal miners won portal-to-portal
agreement in settling the series of
strikes which disrupted the industry
last year.
The current litigation involves the
Jewell Ridge Coal Corp of Virginia,
operating two mines. The Fourth
Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that
the act applied to workers in these
shafts.

Of the gait. the wind against her
cheek and through her hair.
AS she neared the poems houses
she saw a knot Of workers gath
cred in the street. They seemed eX-
cited and across the open stretches
came the rumble of their voices.
When she was closer she could see
that the gathering was before the
house of Juanito. She rode into the
street and stopped at the edge OF
the group. Their talking suddenly
silenccd. They turned their dark
faces toward her and stood mutely.
She smiled at one of them whom
she knew quite well.
whats the excitement" she
asked simply.
At first nobody answered. Then
one of the poems said, Nothing,
senorita. We We're just talking
about the tucura."
There was something about the
way he said it that was most I'M
convincing. Terry was thinking,
these workers had seen the tucura
come almost every year, certainly
it is not such a novelty to cause
this sudden excitement. She
watched the immobile faces. Behind
the dark eyes she saw the smolder-
ing fires of fear and discomfort.
when will the tucura be full
grown" she asked.
One old peon raised his eyes to-
ward the heavens as if he were
seeking the ansWer there. The 9TH
ers looked at each other as if the
question We're too difficult. Finally
someone mumbled. soon, Seno-

Juanito's house chattering excited

joined the silent sea of stares.
Terry could feel the growing ten

would 60 and leave them to their
own discussion.
She rode on toward the stables
and as she drew away she could
hear the muttering of voices behind
her. Maybe, she thought. she was
being dupod by her own vivid imag-
nation. She was. after all. an out
slider. It was natural that her pres
ence might be resented. And vet IS

lire into the trench and burn them
out"
Does this always stop them?"
Not always. if they're too bad.
Sometimes they set fire to the field
where they've bred. The trouble
with that is shat usually the grass
and thistle are too green to burn.
Why don't you slip into your riding
clothes and so out and see them for
yourself. It's really quite a sight"
Terry started to put her writing
materials back in the box.
Il think l SHALL" she said.
She ran upstairs and changed her
cotton froCk for riding breeches and
boots. A few minutes later she was
riding out from the stable toward
working.
When she left the road and start
ed through the grazing land the tall
grass brushed against her horses
TANKS. Rising like a cloud around
her were millions of tiny flies. She
could hear the rustic of their mi
mute bodies as they beat against
the grass. With every step her
horse took fresh swarms rose from
its hooves.
She rode to the edge Of the field
where the men were working. She
saw the enormous truck loaded
with the metal sheets that glis-
tened in the sun. 1t was inching its
way acros the field as a rev un-
loaded the sheets and fastened
them together. Poems with long
handled spades digging out
a trench. She saw Brooks and San

shouting brief instructions. AS she
sat there astride her horse, looking
at the scene, a pang of nostalgia
pierced her. A sudden feeling that
she never wanted to leave this land
of wind. u and enchantment.
She was thinking. Terry Arnold,
you're a fool. Raft is mad about

be busy with his lew work and you
could continue with your writing.
But somehow she couldn't make the
words fit into her secret heart.
Some small restraining voice kept
crying out.
She rode on under the dome of
bright blue sky. hardly knowing in
which direction her horse was
bound. The estancia was a dim blur
against the horizon when she final

CHAPTER TH1RTY-TWO
THE HOUSEHOLD had risen
early. From the breakfast table
Jime and Terry had taken station
try and gone out on the shady ter
race to write letters. They had
scarcely begun when Brooks came
cut, a sheaf of morning Papers I'M
der his arm. He dropped into a
chair and started to read. A few
moments later he glanced up as he
heard Sandy's heavy riding boots
come up the flagstone walk. Sandy
looked hot and tired, his forehead
was damp. his Wide-brimmcd hat
pushed back on his head.
Been out checking fences in
Section 40" he said. I've never
seen the tuCura SO bad"
Brooks looked worried. That's
Just west of that section Of wheat.
Right in the path of the wind"
Sandy nodded.
If they'd only held off another
ten days" he said, "till after har-
vest. But they're Matching fast in
this heat"
Might as well get ready for
them" Brooks said.
I've started. l just sent Juanito
down to the gasoline storage to
check the tanks. Itll take a thou
sand litros to burn them out of the
ditcheS."
How are we fixed on galvanized
sheets?"
I'VE won't have nearly enough to
o. the field. I'm sending one of
the boys into town with the truck
to pick up more. I've got 25 men
down there now digging the
ditches."
Brooks threw his paper to the
ground.
Come on, I'll go with you" he
said. We'll ride out and see how
they're coming"
After the men had gone Terry
turned to Jime. What is tucura? 2"
J1me laid aside her pen and
leaned back in her chair.
"Tucura, dear, is the most feared
scourge Of the pampas." she began.
'They're a kind of srasshopper
that breed in the soil. During warm
summer days they grow rapidly.
When they're full grown they
sweep over the fields in a cloud,
eating every green thing in sight.
I've see them destroy hectareas of
wheat in a single day"
Terry was interested.
What az they do to fight
them ?"
"They take galvanized sheets of
metal and faSten them together,
making a barrier across the field.
In front of the barrier they dig a
trench. When the tuCura come they
