BEATING GERMANS
AT OWN TRICKS

Not all the tricks of the trade of war
are made in Germany" as recent dis
closures recount. While Hitler still holds
the prize for diabolical schemes, Yankee
ingenuity has outclassed him in evolving
legitimate battle lodges.
Kept secret for some time, it now is
known that the famous B-29S and Flying
Fortresses and others of the large bomber
type planes are playing magnificent, if
dying, role on the western front. There
have been accounts of terrific explosions
in German sectors which could not be
explained. Guesses were that a new type,
huge bomb was in use. But not so.
Here is the story, and it so happens it
was the Germans who let the cat out
of the bag" When one of these giant
bomberS is just one mission removed
from going on the scrap heap because re-
pairs are more costly than requirements,
they are loaded to capacity with the high
est explosives in use, flown to close range
of a German target then deserted by the
pilot by parachute, the robot pilot put in
charge and the plane headed for its goal.
1t is understood many such last-gasp
flights have been made by these gallant
ships with terrific destruction as the re-
suit.
The trick was discovered and made
known when the robot pilot was too. too
good and made safe landing without
touching off the cargo of death.

RETURNED VETERANS RESENT
KiD-GLOVE HANDLING
(Riverside Daily Press)


stop trying to practice amateur psy-
chiatry on veterans back from war. Don't
be miSled by widely published attempts
to tell you how to handle these changed
men Instead, welcome them home nat
urally as what they are-fundamentally
the same boys who went away"
This urgent advice offered by Don
Wharton in his article, "The Soldiers Say
Don't Do IT, condensed from Common
Sense in the Readers Digest for March,
brings to mind again the address of Chap
lain J. E. Weber of the Corona u. S.
Naval hospital on the occasion of the
recent anniversary observance of the
United Service Organizations here
1t is the opinion of the chaplain that
there is undue anxiety as to what is to
be expected of these men. 1t is his belief
that they will desire most to be left alone
and treated as normal human beings.
Interviewed on the subject, a bunch
of combat veterans back from overseas
deplored the patronizing, over-sympa
thetic kid-glove treatment" they had met
on their return and hoped that other
homecoming soldiers escape a similar re-
ception. "They were disguised with the
impression created among their home
folks that most returned soldiers were
strange neurotics who didn't want to talk
about what they'd been through" Mr..
Wharton states in his article.
In contrast to "a recent spate of arti-
cles and advertisements purporting to
help relatives help veterans in their
painful readjustment' to civilian life
including a program book Of the OWL
which advises against questions of COM
bat experience, the author quotes verbal
testimony of a number of the interviewed
groups of veterans.
An infantryman wounded in Italy had
his furlough home almost ruined by his
wife's refusal to ask a single question
about what I'd seen and how | got
nicked-all the things | couldn't put into
letters" A boy with his leg in a cast
confidad that his mother had neither
asked how ne was hurt nor mentioned
the cast, pretending not to see it, but "all
the time treating me as if | were her preg-
nant daughter An ordnance sergeant
was made nervous as hell by his mother
watching me all the time and trying not
to do anything that would make me
nervous
Mr. Wharton quotes Maj. Gen. Will
liam r. Arnold, chief chaplains, Z. S.
Army, as saying, Encourage returned
service men to talk about their expert
ences. Genuine respect and affection will
do more tnan all studied efforts to heal
the hurts Of the human spirit"

THIS RECORD SHOULD
BE WIPED OUT

That is a shameful indictment rendered
against Imperial county and just an
nounced by the Imperial County Tuber-
culosis and Health association. Briefly
put, it is that this county stands ust
about at the bottom of the list in rating in
number of cases of this still dreaded dis
ease. But that is only part of the indict-
ment. 1t further charges neglect Of cases
which should be having disqualification
for their own sake and for isolation so
that they may not spread the malady to
others.
Great strides have been made in the
last few decades to blot this disease out
completely. Perhaps this very fact has
lulled us into a false security and made
us careless 1t will be long time before
there is a safe degree of security even if
the pace against it is quickened.
1t generally is known that among the
periodical workers who Jump the bor-
der line are many in early and advanced
stages Of tuberculosis. This should not
be permitted. Why spend money gener-
ously given to fight the disease and leave
the bars down?
True, there are many calls today on the
purse and taxes keep on mounting. but
is il good economy to delay acquiring
hospital accommodations for the cases
which should be isolated? These are the
cold facts. But far and above the money
consideration is the matter of saving
lives. An enemy is in our midst, an in
sidious enemy and an enemy also often
in the open. No time should be lost in that
foes annihilation.

Measure Would
Clarity New
Liquor Permits

SACRAMENTO, March 81. CUP)J
"A new attempt TO maintain a def
mite limit on liquor licenses issued
in the state was prepared in the
assembly late Monday.
ASsemblyman Julian Beck. d.
San Fernando, obtained adoption of
amendments TO a bill he introduced
to hold the number of on-sale and
off-sale premises to one each per
l00G of 1880 poplation with some eX-
ceptions.
Beck said the bill would have the
effect of continuing indefinitely a
limitation rule adopted by the state
board of equalizationi which the
board has announced it will relax on
May Is.
Original provisions of the bill also
would prohibit transfers of liquor
licenses without transfer of the en-
tire business. Beck said the bill will
be considered by the assembly public
health committee on April 5.
The only exceptions to the limita-
ton rule would be on unanimous
vote of the five board members on
a showing of public convenience
and necessity" Then only one new
license could be issued each month
in counties of 100000 or more pop
ulation, one each three months in
counties of 10000 to 100000 and
one each six months in counties of
10000 or less.
Beck said that basing the limita-
ton on the 1910 census, which he
understood the board may do, would
mean issuance of 100 new licenses
in the state.

Strengthening
Of Trade Pacts

WASHINGTON, March 81. CUP)-
President Roosevelt has urged con-
gress to strengthen" the reciprocal
trade agreement program by author
izing reduction o. tariffs so per cent
below present levels.
Mr.. Roosevelt sent Congress a
message in which he said pending
legislation sponsored by Chairman
Robert L. Doughtoun, CD North
Carolina, of the house ways and
means committee would accomplish
the objective. He said the bill had
his support.
The message recalled that the
present trade agreement laws, enact
ed in 1894, permitted tariff reduc-
tions so per cent below the rates
fixed in the HaWley-Snoot tariff
act of 1880. Mr.. Roosevelt said all
of this authority had been exhaust
ed in agreements with some nations
and that additional authority was
needed.

Rejection by the Senate of the nomina-
